After the 4th friend of mine to get their WoW account hacked got hacked yesterday on both his accounts, I decided to go the WoW site and change my password. In doing so I found out they had this little gizmo...

 

product?productId=1100000182&type=3&loc=en-US

 

$6.50 is worth every freakin penny if it keeps my account secure.

 

I used to just copy/paste my password. Keyloggers can't do **** with ctrlv, but that little gizmo looks cool.

I suppose we are all throwing up our Christmas loot?

 

I got a bunch of Christmas decorations, a lot of nick knacks for my place, and this:

Nikon Coolpix p60. Little bit nicer than my last camera, which got stolen out of the back of my car during it's abduction. And that is a very good thing. I am actually a pretty decent photographer, and I was really missing my camera.

 

Also got Predator on Blu-Ray. One of my favorite action flicks of all time:

Not all Blu-Ray movies always look that great. Especially the older ones. I have to say, for a relatively old movie, this film looks surprisingly well in High Definition!

Seriously, if someone knows a site that provides good sized game cover art I will be eternally grateful.

 

Gifty:

Got myself with gift monies.

A wallet, and some other stuff.

 

Did get my brother Devil May Cry 4, but it was off Goozex for $1, so meh. And got my sister MySims on PC... which she hasn't bothered to play yet because it's pretty much a dumbed down version of The Sims... a series she has been familiar with for more than 6 years. But it was the only game I could find that would be exclusively for her. It was $20 anyway... Does kinda suck that my hours have been vastly cut back, going from making around $140-200 a week to only $40-80 a week.

 

Edit:

 

I'm going to take my opprotunity to express what Prince of Persia is and where it's parts sorta come from. (In my mind).

 

  • It has puzzles like PoP: Sands of Time.
  • It has movement like Asssassin's Creed and Shadow of the Colossus.
  • It has a setup for the environment much like Shadow of the Colossus.
    - Hero comes into unknown land with a mysterious past with no clear way to leave.
    - Hero is not welcome there.
    - Hero stirs up trouble involving past history and must set things right.
    - Hero's home base is a huge temple in the middle of a large field.
    - Temple has a series of symbols that indicate progression of the game.
    - Hero goes to separate parts of the world to fight in arenas.
    - Hero has the ability to create a signal to show him the way.
    - Hero is trying to save a girl.
    - Hero has a trusty steed.
    - Game is about mostly exploring and getting to places with important one on one battles spread throughout.
  • Elika and the rest of the game nods towards Ico.
    - Hero and Girl must fix world and escape.
    - Girl is being oppressed by her mother/father and is kept against her will.
    - Hero inadvertently finds and then helps Girl.
    - Girl's mother/father is Queen/King, making her a Princess.
    - Girl is the love interest of the Hero in the story.
    - Girl wears wispy white clothing.
    - Environment is a place that used to be lived in, but is now empty and dead.
    - Environment occasionally contains amazing mechanical pieces.
  • Prince of Persia borrows from Okami.
    - Healing trees to purge the land of evil is exactly what you do in the first 5 hours of Okami.
    - Just purging evil from the land in general.
    - Okami and Prince of Persia take a high fantasy view on Japan/Persia and display it in a highly stylized way, using cell shading.
    - There are moments that involve running straight up walls.
    - Transition of evil land to pure land is exactly the same.
    - Fertile Grounds = Guardian Sakura Tree
    - Copious amount of real world religion is used in the mythos of the story.
  • Prince of Persia has moments where you get onto a plate and get launched through the air on a predetermined path, just like the lauching stars in Super Mario Galaxy. Same with Light Seeds and Starbits/Coins/Stars/etc.

 

So yeah, anymore?

Where are the huge ass pictures I was promised? :carms:

 

http://xkcd.com/37/

 

That's an insult, a compliment, and a display of stupidity.

 

*I'm this close to taking a 4x4 photo panograph of one of them and stitching it together to get something around 14,000 x 10,000 in size... but I'm too damn tired, it's 2:08am, arrgggh.*

 

Also, quoting xkcd isn't cool anymore. :V

 

Edit:

Answer - "When we're married."

$3 each, work great... kinda smell bad for some reason, though. : \

Of course they smell bad, how else would you know the seller rubbed them against his genitials?

Started reading that quote thinking you were still talking about your huge ass... <.<
