Well here we are, on the day of days. I'm posting on a brand new Dell laptop, courtesy the parents. Thank god, too. My old one from 2003 was running on 256 MB RAM. This is a nice comfortable 2 Gigs. Good god, I used to be ontop of the tech field. I didn't know RAM had gotten that high ffs. No wonder I couldn't get anything done.
Mama Kadaj also got me a Stealth Bumblebee Transformers action figure.

She knows me too well.
Also got some very nice Driver hats. I seem to look good in hats that no other 22 year old would wear. I think I'm actually an old, cranky man, which would explain a lot.
Case in point: At this very moment, my douche bag sister and her ass barnacle no job bum boyfriend are here, and all I want to do is tell them to get lost, because I hate 'kids' (She's 19, or else I'd throw her to the pedobears and let them teach her a lesson in respecting her elders), but she acts like a child.
Oh, in case you were wondering why, its because we caught the little bitch stealing money out of my wallet in my war room in the basement. I haven't looked at her or her boyfriend for two days, since I'm pretty sure I'm financing his cigarettes and a video game he got from her for Christmas.
Made her eat her heart out with this laptop, though.
Game wise its been pretty laid back. We're on Christmas vacation. No scheduled events for about a week or so. Gotta be careful though, last time we did this we didn't end up doing any events for about a month lol. More like a college vacation.
Apparently, one of my close friends who recently quit the game, Butcher, reads this blog (I think he's really the only one right now). So, Hi Butters, come back to the game already. Buy your character back!
Gunna go and nurse this cold I apparently have for a bit, then get ready to make the Christmas rounds to see the relatives.
Goodnight and Goodluck.

Wtf accuracy
You know what really pisses me off about this game?
With 304 skill in any given weapon, and a ridiculous amount of accuracy in equipment, you (Read: *I*) still end up missing weaponskills. Consecutively. On mobs I shouldn't be wiffing them on.
In salvage the other day, I missed 3 Tachi: Kasha's in a row. Three of them, on what, soulflayers or something stupid. Wtf? Soulflayers are Demon mobs, they should be at my damned mercy!
And don't even get me started on ranged accuracy.
(Whoops, too late)
Since I don't have Ranger leveled, and I don't feel like throwing oodles of noodles XP at Dark Ixions, I gear up COR/RNG and keep a nice comfortable distance shooting at his backside.
Yeah I know. Cor/Rng, pish posh. Yeah, most of them vs End Game are pretty lol. But, at least I'm not Cor/Nin building TP on Fafnir to Spirits Within like this one jerk off I recall in DA about a year ago.
No, seriously. Capped Marks merits + Faith Torque + ridiculous equipment for R.acc... Plus sushi Plus Hunter's Roll plus /RNG Accuracy Bonus. That's how much it takes to reliably cap the mother !@#$er with Slug Shot. And yeah, after that much R.acc, its god damned consistent at 400-600 damage.
But dear god. That's a lot.
Makes you wonder, how the hell did some of us get along without Sushi for this kind of nonsense way back when? I was what, 65 when sushi came out I think, still poppin' my rice balls on SAM full timing AF gloves because the only other option was 3 accuracy hands until... forever? But whatever, I didn't know any better smackin' away with my dual dex rings on.
Onto next topic.
Stuff that does stuff that pisses me off.
We did a Dynamis Jeuno run last night. Went alright, cleared zone, fought boss, wiped trying to pull afterwards as per usual.
Every time. Every !@#$ing time. Hits me with that blindness candle. I can be 20 distance behind it and it will turn around and throw the damn thing right into my eye if it has to (Eyepatch anyone?).
Also, apparently "Silence the Slimes" reads as "YABALABA SHYRNC ALAKABA" to all Red and Black mages in Dynamis.
Yo keep the slimes silenced and blow them up.
Kadaj's copy image effect wears off.
Kadaj receives the effect of paralyze.
Kadaj drinks bleach.
Not to mention the goblins apparently pack paralyze candles too, just in case their slimes don't piss off enough people, which they ALWAYS manage to hit me with as well.
I think its some kind of Goblin conspiracy.
And they proved it last night.
MMM came out just a few days ago. So, I set up my maze, we go in there last night.
I get mage skeletons. They all have Ice Spikes up, and they all spam that blindness AoE nonsense.
I swear to god.
Conspiracy.
