Well, no. It is not ironic.
But I just watched Season 3 Episode 8 of LOST in Japanese. Now besides it being a fucking awesome episode, I remember it well for reasons other than its quality.
See, this episode aired February 13, 2007. The night before my interview for JET.
I had driven what took far too [...]
So I am working on my DS playthrough of Dragon Quest V and I just got my kids to join my party. All things considered they come equipped with decent enough stuff but I’ve got a bag full of junk so I decided to see if there was anything useful.
Now, in the game your wife [...]
I just finished playing Final Fantasy on the Famicom.
Yes, the original Final Fantasy on the original Famicom. I just bought both last week for about ¥4400.
I can try to pretend that it was my current love for Japanese food and culture that got me here today, but I would be lying. And as fun as [...]
So Megaman 9 is a retro-style game. And will also have achievements on the 360 version. This apparently makes people whine.
Ergo, I have sought to make a list of true achievement points, for the modern gamer.

I love aloe vera.
If I were a villain in the world of Dick Tracy I’m sure right now they’d call me Blotchy. I am applying the creams and lotions evenly, but my sunburn is fading away in a really weird way. It looks hilarious, frankly.
Teaching at every elementary school in my town sure means something for when I go out. I can’t without running into a student. No big deal. But what it also means is that I run into a lot of parents without really knowing who is who. Again, no big deal. But one of my friends [...]
I love the conversations I have at work.
“Eric, is Friday considered the weekend in America?”
“Nope.”
“So, only Saturday.”
“Nope, Sunday too.”
“But Sunday is the first day of the week, right?”
“Yes…yes it is!”
“So how can it be the weekend?”
Hmm… how indeed.
I have no idea what happened by something is in the air and it is drying out my eyes and making my nose do that little sniffle thing that never quite goes away until you stick something too far up your nose so it kinda hurts but kinda hurts in a good way and then [...]
My toe hurts.
I don’t know if I believe in “karma” but I’m starting to realize why the concept came up in the first place.
I’m sure I’m not unique in my thoughts, and that is what makes me hesitant to put words to paper. Or 1s and 0s as the case may be, but that’s not [...]
