Blinded by the light

Does it bother anyone else that people have found a fascination in wearing fake glasses?

It bothers me.

I actually wear glasses and don't understand why people want to pretend their eyes are crap.

Its like pretending to have a disease.

It doesn't make you cool, you just look like a jerk.

This bothered me some when people were wearing those Real-D 3D glasses a while ago, but now you can actually buy real fake glasses.

It also bothers me when people judge me because of my glasses, and they actually ask if they're real or not.

This really just blows my mind.

I want really want this "trend" to please die. Its obnoxious and annoying, and kinda offends me and other people who actually wear glasses.

Reality and other myths

This week I've been playing an awful lot of video games.

Mostly S.T.A.L.K.E.R., but various others as well.

This is a strange turn in events, for the people who know me, know I love me some video games.

But I'm not a Halo frat boy, or some Final Fantasy dweeb.

When I play a game, I look past the simple aspect of playing it, and appreciate the effort that has been put into making it. I try to see and do as much as I can in a game, just to discover more about the world I'm being placed into.

In other words: I play video games as a break from reality and all of its annoying mishaps.

Most people would call my useless video game trivia pointless and obsessive, but looking past that, their is a steady stream of dedication I feel towards them, and the people who create them.

Like Valve, THQ, and Ubisoft

Thanks for the fun times guys (and ladies!)
