Comics

So, I considered naming this post 'Comic Books' but then I changed my mind because that would make me try to decide what was a book and what wasn't. Therefore, I decided to change this one. When I read comics, I don't read them physically most of the time. I usually read them on the Comixology app on my iPod Touch. Now that I've lost my iPod Touch, I can't really do that any more so I have resorted to reading comics that I've borrowed from the library. It's the only way that I can really read comics because any comic shops that we have near me are pretty creepy.

Bulletstorm Review

So, I bought Bulletstorm in the Steam sale the other day and I decided to finish it really quickly. Once I started playing it, it wasn't all that hard to do. Bulletstorm is the best shooter I've played in quite a while. Bearing in mind that I have COD fatigue (which is basically just a fancy way of saying that I'm bored as hell of samey military shooters), I was really looking for a shooter that did something different. And Bulletstorm is definitely that shooter. 

Board Games

So, to begin, I used to be a fan of Monopoly. I don't feel that this needs an explanation because everybody knows what Monopoly is because... Ahh... It's Monopoly. It's the classic board game that people decide to play when they are feeling bored and don't want to watch TV or talk to other people.

Etiquette [Part 3] - Just Help Out!

So, I love people. And messing with people. And socialising in general. You will see that in this post. With that, it's anecdote time.

I was walking home yesterday, probably at about 11:30 in the AM and I walked past an old woman trying to lug a big bag of what appeared to be cement up her garden path. She gave me a smile that was actually more like a grimace and I returned it. As I walked on, I thought: 'That's a pretty huge path...' and it was. It was probably 20 feet long and at a 55 or 60 degree angle. I instantly asked myself how the hell she was going to get up there with that bag and felt kind of bad. So I backtracked a little and offered her my help to carry it up the path. She accepted, thanked me and I got on with it. I lugged it up the path with an iota of the effort that it seemed to be taking her and she thanked me. We chatted for a second then I took off, waved goodbye and felt good about myself.

All I am saying in this small post is just help out. If you see somebody struggling with something, just help them out. They're not going to kill you (I hope...) and they'll probably thank you for it.
