Government strikes again

I know I'm a little late to the party, but I still had to come anyway.  What the hell is WRONG with this state?  Why the bloody fuck did they think outlawing our already neutered open carry of firearms was a good idea?  Nobody's been shot with those unloaded guns.  The worst thing to happen was some namby-pamby wusses got their panties in a bunch over an EEEEEVIL gun.

Fuck those people, and fuck the state govt.

Dumbass moves

A certain relative of mine made such a decision.  My niece whom I hadn't seen since my high school years had recently been contacted, and had been forced to move in with her mom, my sister.  She'd brought her worthless sack of shit boyfriend along, so things got extra special right from the get-go.

They'd been there a week, she with the demanding things, he with the not trying to find work and yelling about things he didn't like.  Needless to say, my sister's husband didn't like this shit at all.

Things came to a head when my youngest niece started shitting and pissing in her own bedroom for fear of being screamed at for using the bathroom.  She'd been jumped numerous times for this, so she either pissed/shit in her own room or outside.

Needless to say, her parents (my sis and BIL) decided to 86 the problem.  The boyfriend called CPS and said there were issues with the house.  CPS found nothing noteworthy and then said they'd do a background check.  Duane, (the boyfriend) suddenly decided they had to be somewhere else.

They both wound up moving out to seperate places.  I wish my niece the best of luck.  Her boyfriend can lip strangle my cock and die in a fire.

The good stuff

There's a certain kind of satisfaction with ending a week that's had plenty of work, and that has gone fairly well.  A satisfaction that I'm feeling right now, as I drink my beer and blog. 

More to come shortly.

Random bullshit

Ugh, this has just been one of THOSE months.  Next month, I turn 34.  Fuck, I'm getting old.

(Just kidding, don't hit!)  I suppose getting old really does beat the alternative.

What else... well, there's drama with my sister and her houseguests (her 2nd oldest daughter and that waste of oxygen she has for a boyfriend. )  They're getting kicked out this week, and apparently they're whining and crying about it.  Here's a hint folks: It's called a job.  Get one.  Then nobody can kick you out of a place you rent or own without cause. 

Thank god that's over.

I just got done with Jury duty.  Man, what a pain in the ass.  At least no one can say I didn't do my duty.

Stupidly, they put me on a home invasion case.  Seeing as I survived one almost 5 years ago, it wasn't like I could honestly judge this case and keep a good conscience, so I got kicked loose.  Shortly thereafter, the JC dismissed us all.

Hopefully, they'll lose my damned name.

Nostalgia

I was recently listening to an episode of Vicious Circle which reminded me of old video games I used to play back in the day.  They were discussing battle toads and I suddenly flashed back to the Game Boy version of that game.  Holy shit, what a fucking exercise in cruelty.  You'd survive (Note I don't say PROGRESS) a few levels before being mercilessly smacked the fuck down.  Good times.

Mario Land was another game boy game I played the everloving shit out of.  The graphics weren't anything to write home about, but the gameplay was mostly classic mario (with a few fucked up spots, like shitty "landing" detection.. you'd jump on a block but fall through the edge of it,)

Mario Land 2 and Wario land fixed these problems.

There were also several entries from the Final Fantasy universe for the Game Boy.  I played (and enjoyed) them all, but they did seem to get much easier as the numbers progressed.  The last one (IIRC) was Final Fantasy Adventure, which while much like Zelda and awesome, wasn't all that challenging.

I look at many of the games out today and while the graphics and sound are awesome, something seems to be lacking in the game play department.  It may be that I'm over 30 and turning into an old curmudgeonly motherfucker, though.

Oh well.

It's been a while....

...not but a few hours ago, I was in a friends car when we got rear-ended by a mexican girl.  Said girl promptly hit the gas pedal and ran off around the corner in a half-assed attempt to escape.  She then stopped at her workplace, apparently thinking she was safe.  Said moron was rather surprised to see us come rolling up on her moments later, informing her that we were calling the cops.  A male mexican cop rolled up and gently suggested that we let the whole thing go.  My friend, noting that the damage to his car amounted to scratches on his bumper (his car was an older model Ford) relented.  The girl didn't even have a drivers license, but the cop let her mom come and get her.  No ticket, no arrest, nothing.

Oh well, at least her crumpled fender will be pretty expensive to fix.
