Not much time for gaming last night, just a bit of Link's Awakening, still just pissing about. This version is giving out heart pieces like sweeties, I think they've overdone it a bit in their desire to change at least something. The feeling of accomplishment that one used to have when completing a heart goes completely out of the window when one's bombarded with them. It also makes the game far too easy even if some of the bosses are a bit harder.
I do appreciate the physicality of the heart pieces in the new Trendy Game. Who knew they were made of such cheap metal?
OTTM: nothing else matters.

tenthenemy yeah it is a lot easier than I was expecting it to be. So far I've only had one boss that's taken more than a couple of attempts, and that was only because I couldn't figure out what attack to use.

The other day I watched my son push over another kid in the playground, and when I asked him why he'd done it, he acted genuinely offended and said "I didn't even do anything. It was frankenstein" I've never been so proud.

Cobblers refusing to answer questions about his trousers only adds to the intrigue. Did he put them in the wrong cupboard? Did he accidentally leave them behind at a chemsex party?

Morning.
Sun is so hot I could scoop fuel if I was playing effete danglies, but as I'm not I'll just sizzle by the pool spanking the free vodka.

I tried to explain to him that frankenstein was actually the name of the doctor, but he pointed out that he's only a doctor in the film and TV adaptations, as it's not part of the source novel. Parenting is a fucking minefield.

Morning. Love this suggestion from lone wolf on the Guardian's article re: global video games giants avoiding millions in UK tax Probably would have got a Guardian Pick if it wasn't for the f word. Now got a pick. All hail our new leader, Lone Wolf!

I gave Lone Wolf's comment an upvote before it became fashionable.
What have you ever done?

You are all as grumpy as I am, must be Wednesday ... in times of trouble I call myself Ace...
Not very realistic (and I'd rather not play spoons with Beryl Bonjela) but better than being grumpy

I watched a film last night where George Clooney and an all-star cast track down salad cream looted by the Nazis in WWII. What was it called? Oh yeah, The Condiments Men.
Shall I start the booing now? Booooooo....
