To my dear friends: No offense, really. I am just tired of all the random requests to join something I have no interest in. I get them from sites I really enjoy and it's getting on my nerves. I've blocked the application. I've blocked the random people asking me to join. It's just... dude. It's an application. A game. *sigh* The worst thing that Facebook (and now Twitter) could have done is allow the status to be manipulated to show causes/games/applications. I get embarrassed when Raptr posts too many of my updates. To have something post every movement is just ridiculous. I use these sites to keep in touch with friends, chat and occasionally meet new ones. I DON'T use them to announce that I've bit someone's neck, took a hit out on another person's status or dug a garden for my imaginary farm. I don't announce that I've saved a tree, supported a cause (except once... and that was by accident) or even made a vote. While you may be assaulted with descriptions of my phlegm, my emotional status during PMS or what XBox 360 game I beat (WOLVERINE FTW!), I draw the line at using my status to tell you about something so obscure that you will have to join it to understand it. Except PMS. I don't expect any of my male friends to understand it. Fear it? Yes. Understand it? That's what chocolate and roses are for. Twitter seems to be having fits lately. I've gotten at least ten "Over Capacity" messages today alone. When it's not giving me the annoying pastel whale picture I get a skewed version of the page, complete with missing icons and icky orange font. *grumbles* I hate getting hooked on something and then not being able to use it. It's like the time I did Crack Cocaine. Okay, I lied. But I'm sure it's how I would have felt IF I did something so stupid. Meanwhile I am still totally hooked on Fable 2. I'm dragging my character's feet as long as I can before taking on the next major quest. At this rate I should finish the game sometime next year. Yeah so I'm using Twitter now. I'm still trying to get the hang of it. I can do random. I live for random. Random is my life's calling. But I don't know what's too much, if I need more pertinent information or if I need to just post the basics. I can't imagine a bunch of updates telling friends that I'm going to go pee. I could totally do that (and have), but yeah... seems a little on the TMPI side of things. Last night I tried the Left 4 Dead demo. After freaking out about the zombies Jake took over and played it for a while. Because he's so much better with the controller I ended up becoming nauseous from watching him. I was frustrated for a bit but decided that I was going to try again. I am determined to get better. I know that my game play has improved since first buying the console. I practically live off of Fable 2. I would just like to be good enough to join in some online games. Hopefully Jake won't be too annoyed at me playing so I can get better. |
