The Game. Holy hell do I hate the damn thing.
It's like, every place I go, there's at least one moron going around saying "hey u just lost teh game lol" or something similar. It's goddamn ridiculous. I'm willing to bet that not even half knows what The Game actually is.
The Game is not a game. It's a social experiment. And the best part? Anyone that repeats it shows part of their true nature.
Because the only thing that can happen in the game is that you lose, the person that passes it on is petty and competitive, because they won't suffer any type of loss, no matter how small and insignificant. Oh yes.

In Brightest Day, In Blackest Night
This is quite easily the best trailer I've seen in a long time.
The best/worst part? It's all fan-made. Goddamn, that's awesome.

Tumbleweeds and Twilight
Uh, hi. Yeah, I don't post much at all. I am going to try posting more this year, but that's what I said last year. So there's that.
Also, on FaceBook, I've seen this:
"97% of teens would cry if they saw Robert Pattison (Edward Cullen from Twilight) standing on top of a sky scraper, about to jump. If you're one of the 3% who would sit there eating pop corn screaming "DO A FLIP YOU SPARKLY FAGGOT!" then copy and paste this as your status"
Now, as much as I know I shouldn't be doing this, I have to point out all the flaws in this.
First: Are people that bastardly that they would try and convince and actor to commit suicide JUST because they play a character in a movie? I mean, I wouldn't cry, but c'mon. That's just cold. And anyway, he's made it pretty clear that he hates the book and thinks all the fans are complete balls-insane. He's on our side, for god sake!
Second: Those statistics are messed up as all hell. For seriously. 3% of people aged 13-19 would enjoy it? (Let's pretend that it's Stephanie Meyer on the building. At least she's the cause of it all.)
In the Australian 2006 census, there's 2,676,807 people aged 5-14, so they'd be 9-18 now, seemingly the target audience of Twilight. 3% of that is 80,304. Eighty-thousand, three-hundred and four. That's not enough to fill the MCG! Are you seriously telling me that there's only that many people in Australia that wouldn't give a damn?! No friggin' way.
