#96760 Funny things that have happened

Posted by Photography Raptor on 29 October 2015 - 08:56 PM

Lot's of funny stuff, but most of it is like... you'd have to be there to really feel the funny.

 

Just last week at work I hit myself in the balls and with no one around to laugh at me, I laughed and made fun of myself. :( Just came natural.

 

One time I was working at Menard's with my buddy and we were up in the genie lift putting together some sign for the mezzanine. After 20 minutes he was getting nowhere with this thing and finally, I kept bugging him to let me try. He was refusing and then randomly, completely out-of-the-blue like I was possessed I snatched the device from him and said in a purely demonic voice "YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE!" He froze dead silent for a second and we both looked at each other in pause and literally rolled over laughing. People would be walking by down below and all like "WTF is going on up there."

 

'Till this day when I see him I speak in said voice. Good times.




#96269 Magic the Gathering Card game

Hnngg it's awesome.

 

I like the Van Gogh version of this card. I've seen some really creative ones. I favorite the spill & shadow type of proxies. I don't own many myself, they are less value than the actual card so not many people trade them away. Make them for fun. Here's one I picked up a few months ago - not the best one I've seen but needed to make ends meet on a trade.

#96178 Dota 2

Posted by Photography Raptor on 06 October 2015 - 08:24 PM

I put many hours into DotA 2. It's been years since I touched it though. Never exactly sure why I left it to begin with. I'm pretty much a fan of all MOBA. I even played Heroes of Newerth from very early on but remember leaving that one in favor of DotA 2. It was just a shiny copy of it, really. It had some good skins though. Their 'razor' and 'venomancer' hero skins were pretty awesome.

 

I think my favorite DotA 2 hero is Spirit Breaker, followed by Centaur Warrunner. I remember being pissed off they changed his ultimate from the strength to something else. I understand though, stacking strength on him made him an early game unstoppable beast. I like the strength heroes the most. They had just added Legion Commander when I steered away from it and remember liking her a lot too. I always sucked as Agility heroes and pretty much only played Venomancer. For Intelligence I enjoy Engima, Disruptor and Jakiro as well, they are beasts.




#96147 Jurassic World.

When I go to the theaters I tend to keep the tickets in my wallet until I see a new movie. My last movie seen was this one, 6/20 (yeah I don't see many in theaters). I almost went to go see it again it was so amazing. Over a decade and they come back with this!? Bravo. The things I enjoyed most about this one was T-Rex's redemption from his fall from grace in III and most importantly, the homage it paid to the original film. It's funny, exciting, and yeah, HD dino's.

 

Going to watch it again this weekend!




#96127 Firefly

Posted by Photography Raptor on 05 October 2015 - 07:08 AM

I am constantly surprised when I'm told Bones is still on.

When everyone on the show went baby crazy I stopped watching it.

I heard Betty White is on it now, but I don't want to gave to catch up like six seasons to get there again.

 

I 100% agree. I managed to finish off season 7, and I think that's it for me. There were things about that show that were already starting to bothering me, throw in some baby crazy and I'm done. One thing is the way Angie calls Brennan "hon" or "honey." It drives me bonkers. It's so...what's the word that fits? Condescending. Then again I always hated the "hon" word growing up so maybe that's just me.

 

In other news, I love Alan Tudyk. I watched him on a recent episode of Spellslingers. It's a Magic the Gathering special on Youtube. It's really cool. They feature a lot of nerdy actors and oddballs. It was really cool to see him team up with Felicia Day and see his nerdy side a bit!




#96094 Heroes of the Storm

Posted by Photography Raptor on 02 October 2015 - 06:09 AM

Downloaded this one, finally. I had a talk about League and tower defense games recently and this was one that was brought up. This one and Smite I had yet to try out. So I played the tutorial and knocked out one A.I match...

 

First impression:

 

Not fucking bad at all. I enjoyed myself. It was different. Definitely takes some getting use to. I played Valla because she is in rotation right now and was marked Easy. Thought I was doing alright with a double kill then landed a quad kill. It wasn't very high difficulty but still pretty cool for a first game. Going to knock out some more A.I. matches and see where it goes. Lots to learn.

 

Sometimes, though... learning can be fun.




#95988 League of Legends

Posted by Photography Raptor on 27 September 2015 - 07:36 AM

Been playing LoL everyday the past month or so. It's my go-to game for when I'm giving other games a 'break.' Though I've only been playing for maybe a year total. Played DotA back in the day, from the early stages and have been playing similar games since. Played DotA 2 as well. Just never gave LoL a fair shot until one day, boredom happened. Then I discovered I enjoyed their skin system and champions far better, oh and MODES. I fell in love with ARAM. I still don't play competitively, because of the odd times and breaks I've taken from the game it doesn't interest me. I've been thinking about it lately and might try and master a few champions. Right now I'm sticking to casual.

 

I enjoy playing support the most: Sona, Lulu, Lux, Janna, Nami, etc. - I can't really brag about how well I do (and don't) with those champions, because I play ARAM. It's my stomping grounds.  I've had some really good games though. First time I ever played Lulu and assisted with a back-2-back pentakill Mordekaiser. Probably my funnest match to date. Won't lie though, I've only ever had one pentakill myself. Thousands stolen from me, but I got my one. SO I'M HAPPY! It was with an AD Kog'Maw, because I'm boss like that. Funny story (at least to me) is that, the night I got my first pentakill...Just got home from seeing Jurassic World in theater and got a Kog'Maw random with my Jurassic skin. It was fate.

 

More on champion updates...I don't like the new Fiora either. I can see how she appeals to competitive players. She's doing really well with the pro's I hear. I was just starting to get good with the old one =/ but oh well, it is what it is.




#95987 Fairy Tail

Posted by Photography Raptor on 27 September 2015 - 07:07 AM

Started Fairy Tail a few months ago. The thing I like most about it is that it sprinkles a little bit 'O everything into it. I personally feel that this makes for the best, if not, the most interesting Anime. It has comedy, action, fanservice, mystery, the cute "mascot", awesome spell slinging, it's just loads of funny and awesome. My personal favorite being Ezra, because, I won't lie to you...I got a penchant for lady knights. As highly as I speak of the show though...I'm only on Episode no. 10. Look forward to catching up!
