Why everyone should at least lurk on the DToid forums.

I Review Them In Stereo:
Joanna Newsom's Have One On Me
Two Door Cinema Club's Tourist History
Tunng's ...And Then We Saw Land

Things people say I like:

I can't fully enjoy the PS3 without an ample supply of hookers and blow. How does that figure into your Reaganomics? - MegaStryker

I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself you see. - Alice from Alice in Wonderland; the greatest book ever written

Best thing about those cards are how bad the pun/product writing is. "I only have Snake Eyes for you." "You've Duke'd it out with my heart and now I'm yours to command." "I have a Cobra Commander in my pants." - sheppy

"Sarah Palin is a fucking retard." - Stephen Colbert

How to read a review without being pissed off:
1. Decide prematurely whether the game is balls, or the second coming of flying spaghetti monster.
2. Go to www.metacritic.com and search for the game.
3. If flying spaghetti monster, click on first link. If balls, scroll to the end and click on the last link.
4. You should now be sitting and staring at a review you agree with.
5. Complement reviewer on such a well thought out and non biased review.

That's because WWI was a pretty low-budget project, it was mostly about the story of soldiers in trenches and lay-low tactics, the sequel WWII, was really the bomb, with millions of dollars invested on it and top notch action sequences. - adrianboy

I think booze is a pretty cool guy. eh keeps me from doing the recaps on time and doesn't afraid of anything. - Pendleton21

Everyone else tolerates it because you're an attractive woman, I find that quite shallow. - Mousse420

*NOTE: I like that quote because at least I know if everyone is going to assume I'm female at least I'm attractive. Call me.

I was able to cause my child to fall into a well of depression after shattering his tailbone by horribly failing the see-saw QTE at the park three times in a row. Then I tried to cheer him up by buying him candy, but picked the one flavor he didn't like. It was like reliving my own childhood.

11/10.

GOTY.

Xzyliac: @punisher898 Score! I wonder if Cyndi Lauper and Lady GaGa hang out together. #ponders
punisher898 (aka Occams Electric Toothbrush): @Xzyliac: I bet if they do its like the best Folger's coffee commercial ever.

That's awesome. Hollywood writers are the best! I had one make me an iced latte the other day. It was totally adequate!
-Jumbo

Uno just brings out the animals in all of us. It's just too sexy of a game.
-Sanious

Xzyliac, shut up, you\'re not cool.
-Fear No Darkness

*NOTE: I would like to note that later on I explained myself to Fear No Darkness and he totally sent me an apologetic PM. He's a classy fella whom I'd love to share a drink with sometime.

If you've never had promiscuous thoughts about a Dreamcast then you're not a gamer.

Hey oh! So remember that PAX East contest we had? Man, I had epic plans for that. For cocktease purposes I'm not gonna go into detail but I did write a song, and I did collaborate with one RenegadePanda, and I did promise to post the remnants of that failed project right here.

It's an okay song, I think there's a hiccup in the guitar work around the third chorus. I used my little brothers guitar and mini-amp which didn't have nearly the quality I wanted but it did okay. No real complex or rich sounds but it's quick and got the job done.

The real reason I'm uploading it is because Panda's artwork is brilliant as always. Funny, smart without being self-indulgent, and full of fun little details. Keep doin' whatchu do Panda.



The story is basically technology refused to work with me. I had borrowed a camera which stopped reading SD cards and my cell phone was being really buggy whenever I tried to upload the video. It's pretty much in line with my history with technology.

I approve of this blog. Having almost nothing to do with the fact that I was involved in it. I'm not one for shamless self promotion, after all.

Coincidentally, a new 'Teaches You Things' is up and has only 3 lonely comments. You know you want to!

But I'd just like to say it was an honor working this project, even if technology had to come along and ruin it, as technology often does. Sorry about all that happened, for what it's worth, I would definitely have voted for you.

Again, having almost nothing to do with shameless self promotion.

Nice job, Xzy!
So, at first I thought this was awesome...and then I saw a picture of Liz Enthusiasm. Then it became amazing.

...But then, I saw a picture of Joan Jett. And it became FUCKING SPECTACULAR. Dammit Xzyliac, why ya gotta be such a kewl kid. HOW'D YOU GET TO BE SO S-RANK.
How'd you get to be so s-rank?


That shit made me spit out my cheerios.

Seriously though, I dig this like a shallow grave in the Las Vegas desert.
I really like it, and I also dig the guitar, reminds me a lot of Eagle Eye Cherry's "Save Tonight."
Send this bitch to PA- oh wait, nice blog.
Thank e'erybody!

@RenegadePanda
I didn't leave a comment but I did Fap it when I read it. We're still friends right?
@ Xzyliac

Well...I suppose I can forgive you.
Good song and great artwork by Panda, as per usual!

Should've won that PAX contest thingy! :(
Great work! Loved it!
