At some point I would like to blog about all the weird shit going on, but getting back to work from my vacation has me booked solid for a while. I'm sorry.

Today, however, I came across something that I just had to share: This terribly sad YTMND (which is SFW).

I hope that the strength of this narrative will help you forgive me for the small post.

Baconsalt.

I was expecting a joke! That was terribly sad, and an excellent use of To Zanarkand.

Bacon salt?

I literally dropped a tear on the brisket I'm eating for lunch. It's tough being a cowboy (cowboy).

I believe this was a good use of the Cblogs!

-------------

I actually had a little conversation with a GameFaqs user a little while back.


Ok, his name was "familyguy( whatever #'s )"

& he had a crossroads kind of moment w/Assassin's Creed. He stated " I have Assassin's Creed RIGHT now, and have a older brother I respect like no other!" He goes on to say " He called me from college and said he was going to be coming home in a week." FamilyGuy continues, " He also told me not to open it until he got home, BUT I really want to play it! HELP! "

I said to him if he wanted to open it it was his choice. I also said that you can play it at ANY time you want to. Especially after he leaves back to school. & that a true man expects respect from his peers. If you open it. Not only do you lose that sense of brotherly respect, a little. You are jepordaizing the fun you could experience together as family, over the Thanksgiving week. Especially Thanksgiving!

With that said, I hope he had a true moment of self. & acted as he thought was right, rather than right now!

I actually thought the same thing originally. There should be another kind of tag for "will probably make you look like a pussy" because WPMYLLAP is really hard to remember.

My fiance has been hiding my copy of AC:WW from me for almost a year, ever since I gave it to her before she went to LA for a job.

She's back, but now I hope she's not secretly dying of cancer...

Fun Fact: When I click on above ytmnd, my computer thinks it's porn, and will not let me watch.

Also, baconsalt.

Edit: ...my work computer...

My home computer lets me watch all the porn I can stand, and then some.

Wow, I really had to keep myself from crying there. It was worse than the ending of two Russell Crowe films, A Beautiful Mind and Cinderella Man.

Yes, I’m a man, and no, I’m not gay. I’m just easily affected by sad stories (and triumph-over-tons-of-adversity stories, too). Thanks for this, itemforty...I’m going to hug my parents over Thanksgiving.
