The Mind Of OverlordTomala
Are you fucking serious?

They must really like their facebook time.

Unbelievable.

The mother and father of a 16-year-old girl in Rocklin, California, were in the habit of shutting off the home internet at 10pm. In order to get round the curfew, their daughter and a 15-year-old friend offered to pick up shakes from a fast-food restaurant, which they then allegedly drugged.

This is something I would never even consider doing. Drugging your own family to get what you want? What would happen if they were rich and wanted to inherit a fortune? Or take your parents car? Drug em! Drug em like no tomorrow!

But holy fuck… I could never, ever think of doing something like this. What could take place in someones life that would lead to a decision like drugging milkshakes to get what they want? The parents only had a little sip and were out cold not long after. What if they drank the entire thing?

Makes you wonder not only about the kid, but the parenting as well.

Sunday Morning Open Thread

Started the day sleeping past the alarm. Still made it to work on time though. Nice and quiet night of work. 8)

Now to put together my to do list for tomorrow’s day off.

Install Windows 7 and Ubuntu onto new laptop drives (they arrived!)
Box gifts for various friends in and out of country
Upgrade Forum to latest version of phpBB (One version behind, hopefully nothing breaks)
Install AutoMod
Install Plugin so that people can read the forum via a smartphone.
Go to bank to make a deposit
Fuck off the rest of the night.

It’s going to be a nerdy day. 🙂

Women don’t get harrassed online.

Found an interesting read tonight. I have no doubt this is done quite a bit. Putting together tutorials on how to target girl gamers in particular.

He released an “apology” video.

In the video he makes it clear he’s not very happy with Kotaku, and as punishment for poking at his fun he is going to go out of his way to torture more girl gamers. Because I guess that’s what manly men do? Boys will be boys and that sort of thing, right? Nothing like being a tough guy in mum’s basement.

I wonder if he plays any other games, or if he’s strictly into that game only. Would be fun if I met up with him. I’d clearly bring FRAPS for one of my own “tutorials”. 😉 But then I don’t know if he’d pick a fight with me. Since he has based his selections on the amount of cleavage he finds, and the closest I can get to cleavage is this:

They are nice melons, though.

A rude awakening

So apparently I had to be to work a bit earlier today, and everyone but me knew… lovely.

The rest of the day was alright. Although I’m a bit pissed that the wifi at work still won’t work properly. I’m starting to take it personally…

Ended up playing some offline TF2 and Serious Sam during my lunch. At least there’s that. 🙂

Attractions in 2012

These are the posts that got the most views in 2012.

How was I found? Oddly enough, it was mostly by people looking for porn or George Tierney of Greenville South Carolina. Which goes to show that even the biggest assholes can still be useful for something. 🙂

The top referring sites in 2012 were:

  1. slackersforum.servebeer.com
  2. girlgamer.com
  3. agent69.hopto.org

Yutram reads us some skifree fanfic weirdness

Remember that old game from back in the old old old old win 3.1 days known as Skifree? Well, apparently people have made fanfiction around this simplistic game.

A word to the wise, this contains language and… eroticness? I say that in an ironic tone because the story itself doesn’t make much sense. Anyway, you’ve been warned.
