I Believe They Call It 'Teh Suck'

Oy. Spike TV's "Video Game Awards"? Color me disappointed. Actually, much closer to disgusted, really. They had Li'l Kim come out JUST to say "ooo lookit me I play sports games challenge me online oo!" Yeah, I'm gonna be real intimidated by someone who lost whatever street cred they might have had by being in a couple of Old Navy commercials. And the band P.O.D? I'm gonna be real original and suggest a new name: P.O.S.. Yes, P.O.D. fans, I said it, and I'm not taking it back. ::sigh:: I was probably stupid to expect a decent video game awards show from Spike TV of all places - the chicks in bikinis and cheerleaders didn't exactly scream "we're not biased towards boobie games" (it didn't help that the game that won "Best Animation" was Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball) - but one can hope, you know? And that the "best game based on a movie" should definitely NOT have been Enter the Matrix, dear GOD. With The Two Towers out? ::shakes head:: And Jenna Jameson? Bleah. Slut munch! Her fake ol' boobies were at ELBOW LEVEL. Yuck.
EDIT: the WWF Smackdown/Raw "bra and panties showdown" was so fucking utterly retarded and pathetic that I have HAD IT and the goddammed show is going off. Fucking Spike TV. ::spits:: Whoever came up with that pile of feces they called an awards show deserves about seventy thousand kicks in the face by yours truly. ::snarl:: Anyhow.
Damn, I wish I could create my OWN channel. It'd show GOOD anime and have actual good video game shows, and I'd give people like Sarah Silverman and Louis Black their own shows, and then I'd have a PONY! ::snort laugh:: Yeah, I know. I'm just deluding myself here. But I can dream, dammit. I can DREAM.
I would be remiss in my duties as a human being if I didn't remind you of the amazing things that Penny Arcade has been doing lately: namely, organizing one utterly amazing charity drive to help the Seattle Children's Hospital. They've got people to donate so many wonderful things to these kids, it can't help but restore one's faith in humanity. ::smile:: If you want to help out - and I know I do - head here, read a little bit about what the whole thing is about, then go to their Amazon Wish List and order away. ::smile::
Now. You must read the comic. Then you must, verily, go to Acts of Gord and read each Book of Gord until ALL ARE FINISHED! Believe me. It's all tales of the most moronic customers ever... and how the almighty Gord DESTROYS them! ...well, not destroys, totally, but my God, I think both Web Guy Josiah and I worship the guy now. I think he's convinced me that I want to move to Canada one day. Hell, if you can chase down a shoplifter and beat the stupid out of him, sic creditors on thieves, and tell retarded customers precisely what you think of them - yea, great Gord hath done all these things and more - how could one not want to live there? ::sigh with happy:: Oh, and a devoted follower of Gord's beat me to the punch and made a comic about him which is fan-damn-tabulous (EDIT: I just checked the personal page of the artist, Ryan Estrada, and WHOA BOY HOWDY his stuff is neet-OH. Go check it out in the link from the comic above!). So you should check both those out... oh, and a quick note of warning: the words of Gord are dangerously addictive! I myself spent a full three hours reading the entire site, and oh, the glee... ::grin:: Go check it out.
Gah. Stupid Spike TV Video Game Awards making me feel all nasty and unclean... bleah. I'ma go do something that renews my sense of self worth... play Chrono Trigger. Wheeee! ::dances:: You all have fun, now, okay? Much goodness to you.
