Why the hell are you people so nice to me [shortblog]
Anthony Burch | 4:33 PM on 05.06.2009 98 comments


I'm regularly mean to about half of you, so I can't begin to imagine why or how you guys worked up the effort to put down such kind words asking for my speedy recovery. I really can't tell you how flattered I am, and how much I appreciate it.

I'm currently sore in pretty much all the places you'd suspect and am going to attempt to maintain a regular diet of hydrocodon and anything that will end my constipation, but other than that I am alive.

So, thank you again, one and all, for being as cool and needlessly kind as you are.

There may not be a Rev Rant this weekend, though :(

But if there isn't, that'll just be because I'm making it a weekday feature instead of a weekend one. Mebbeh.

Well, if it helps alleviate your confusion, I was actively wishing you harm. Nothing against you personally, I'm just really big into human suffering lately.

Because you may be an indiefag, but you are OUR indiefag. Also, as someone hoping to one day break into the industry and make some of my own indie games, you often sling advice up and stuff and that's helpful.

Hope you have a speedy recovery

Your Rev Rant should be from your hospital bed, about how DELICIOUS hospital food is ;-)

Oh, and I was nice in hopes I could snag some of your sweet, sweet drugs.

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things
Will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Glad you're on the road to recovery. For what its worth I'd rather see Rev Rants as a weekend feature but I'm glad to have them whenever you can produce them.

I'm not. I don't invite you to L4D games for a reason, ragequitter :P

Also, we all want in your sister's pants, collectively. And preferably at the same time.

Because 'The Runner' would be far too depressing to be the last game you ever make.

Haha, glad things are okay!

Sorry about the Appendicitis, I had a burst appendix in kindergarten, that was not fun.

Anyway... Get well soon Rev :)

The problem here is that if I answer, I'll feel like those ugly obsessives who spend their days wishing on some random encounter with the people whom they pretend are their friends because they spoke to them once.

Oh wait.



Get better please. I don't want you to go and die from SARAIDS yet.

Typical Rev no-selling appendicitis and probably acting like a pretencious dick about it. Too mainstream for ya, not enough pixels and sprites?

Insert generic
"get well soon" message here, because seriously man, get well soon.

Epsom salts will put an end to that constipation.

The cost may not be worth it, though.
