READY TO FRIDAY photo

Wow, did this week ever suck. Personally, I'm glad it's over and look forward to next week with a tight grip on the hope that it will be far less sh*tty. It can really only go up from here. On that note, let's get things started.

It's FRIDAY.

 

To kick off the weekend, a few messages from the good people at Wilkins coffee. A shining example of effective marketing strategy, the company's ads saw fit to promote their product not by describing its great taste, but rather by threatening potential consumers with outrageous acts of physical violence should they opt not to buy. Cautionary tales to illustrate what might happen to you if you resist -- all told via puppets. Oh, you'll drink this coffee, motherfucker. We know where you live.

 
And you wonder why your parents turned out to be such basket cases. At any rate, the weekend is now fast upon us, and I'm curious as to what it is you kids have planned. Maybe I'll stop by for a while, if there's beer. You guys ready to FRIDAY?

just picked up Monster Hunter Freedom unite, and re-bought Killzone 2 (shouldn't have traded in) and picking up a 1/4 ounce of "cheese" tonight (have quit weed but decided a relapse was in order) and have a week off work, with Blur in Hyde Park Thursday!

So my Friday is ram packed with WIN!

It would have been a better week if there was RetroforceGo.

At any rate, I get paid today. Money!

Now listen here, I know we might have gotten off on the wrong foot earlier this week, but we have made it to Friday. That means that everything is going to be A-OK. That means that you me an these sweet little things called PS3, 360, and Wii can have a nice long sit down. Maybe you want some coffee? I know it's early and MJ and Fara are gone, it's a long hard road and there is no turning back. Maybe one day we can travel back in time and see them both at their prime. Did you know that time travel is just a problem with physics? I mean physics is easy right? Little Big Planet uses that stuff.
Anyway, I'll let you get READY TO FRIDAY!

It'll be a boring Friday morning without RFGO, but when the sun goes down, game time! Of course for me that means coding, but I'm almost ready to submit it to XNA Community Games.

Things just seem to happen to people who don't drink Guinness 250

No work today, so I'm going to motivate myself to replay RE5 all day. No beer tonight though :(

I picked up Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor and will most likely play that this weekend.I also bought a Nintendo 64, so I have been playing Perfect Dark and Pokemon Stadium a lot.

All night Left 4 Dead fest at my friends house tonight, though. 24 hours + of L4D action; here is hoping we can get the Zombie Genocide achievement in one night.

Fun fact: Those Wilkins Coffee ads were made by Jim Henson, using early versions of what would later become known as the Muppets.

With being asked to work overnights for two weeks at my job, I have no idea what freakin day it is today, I assume that as I am required by law to "Friday" I will need to have that legislated otherwise I may not be able to have my "Fridaying" applied to my account. If anyone is able to "Friday" on my behalf I will be more than happy to apply that to a later "Fridaying" I may be able to complete on my own.
