HALO 3 SAVES LIVES
January 15, 2009
Well duh.
Was reading slashdot which is where this picture came from and apparently a teen murdered his parents after they took Halo 3 away from him. Amusingly but also frighteningly some people are blaming this on the game.
But as one slashdot poster put “Teen plays Halo 3 for years and doesn’t kill anyone. Parents take Halo 3 away from him for one day and teen kills one and shoots the other in the head. Correlation: Halo 3 prevents people from committing murder and everyone should play Halo 3.”
Summarily you can blame anything for anything if you try hard enough. Also summarily my comma/other > key is not working and this makes this computer rather useless for certain things.
The most beautiful and the saddest dream to date. It was just that normal awkward silence, you know? Then all of a sudden you just put your hand on mine and looked me in the eyes with that kind of gaze. Not your smile, just that gaze. It was electrifying, blisslike, and so frightening.
…But everything looks perfect from far away, the song goes.
I knew, then, already that it was a dream, because nothing that feels like that can possibly happen to me. And yea – it was a dream abstracted. D2y/dx2. The widest cast of people ever, and locations – Yongquan who served as the voice of criticism in matters of romance, the top level classroom that wongsm took us to, and in which peter legendarily blew up the fire extinguisher causing another evacuation. To tell the tale of Zijing I must relate the NTUC story – apparently we were trying to find work at NTUC, and so we got subjected to tests – a dry run of sorts. I was, for example assigned to ship eggs to the shelves. However, Zijing got assigned cakes, of which she promptly ate one. The manager reassured us that this didn’t mean we would lose our jobs (yeah right) and continued the battalion of tests. One notable one comes when a group of helmeted riders swarm out on skates, ostensibly robbers. I drop my bag from the second storey, causing one to ride over it and tumble like a bowling ball. The others are also summarily disabled. However, we are then informed that we should have called the police instead of taking matters into our own hands.
After that we travel somewhere. Zijing is constantly confused for a boy due partly to shorter-than-usual hair. Eventually, she asks about the ntuc manager’s stunning array of bluetooth headsets and stuff. Realizing that this was the part known as exposition, and if we stayed in here we would just become sympathy fodder for the story, I bolted. I refer you to the finale of Season 2 of Doctor Who.
My subconscious makes the obvious link, and what do we bolt out into but the TARDIS. The Doctor looks like a half regeneration between Matt Smith and Ecclieston, uses phrases like ‘Close the door. Fuck!’ and makes his companion (Jones) visibly uncomfortable.
Jumping back to you, we were hurricane proofing a house by putting cardboard boxes on the outside of the hdb corridors, because of some housesitting reason and a dumb agreement with the non-present owner.
Well, it’s just sad, that’s all.
