Ugg-o

As Keanes are to the Folkfest, Uggs are to MacEwan.

They're fucking everywhere.

They're killing me!

Girl A: "I love Starbuck's green-tea latte!"

Girl B: "I never go to Starbucks. Their coffee's gross."

Girl A: "Me either, but I love their green-tea latte."

Grow a pair and tell your moron friend that you like Starbucks. It's okay to have your own opinion.

For real...?

A girl sitting next to me just confessed to her friends that until recently she'd never cooked an egg in her life. In the end, the congealed yellow goo she served her boyfriend was neither recognizable nor palatable.

I don't mean to infer that women should be able to cook; I mean to infer that everyone should be able to whip up scrambled eggs.

What the hell does this chick eat?

Well hello

I realize it's been ages since I've posted anything - especially since the last two posts were just videos with little commentary - but I haven't had time. Initially it's because I was in exam and assignment hell, but now I'm too freakishly obsessed with LittleBigPlanet for the PS3. IT'S SO GOOD!

It's the perfect culmination of brilliant visual design, fun gameplay, online goodness and, the best part, the ability to create and share your own levels. In my opinion, the level designer is the greatest thing to happen to video games since they discovered the 3rd dimension. Honestly. Brilliant.

Designing the levels is a fantastic nerdy-blend of design and science. It's hard to make something that's fun, functions properly with gravity, and looks great. It's to the point where I've started pre-sketching my designs before making them.

Anyhow, the point being, I've been really busy with my PS3 so whenever I have free time I invest it there, not here. Until I get bored you'll just have to read Gary's Blog which is infinitely more interesting than mine anyway.
