- AVERAGE JOE

My housemates haven’t paid their share of the rent or bills yet, but still managed to drop £120 on shoes. 

Can’t help but think about all the Vans-wearing Skrillex fans that used to rip on people for skateboarding and listening to From First To List.

How to dig yourself out of a hole in your writing? 

Jump forward two or three years, and make a great guest star a permanent character.

Christmas is so fucking dull when you’re older, all I want is Halo Mega Blok toys. 
Lego is still better, though.

Shook Ones- Order Form.

The best tune I’ve heard in ages.

Enjoy your breakfast.

I have it, but the payment didn’t go through on my account so it isn’t unlocked to play. So frustrating. Eyeing up Deus Ex in the sale, that and Skyrim are the two games I was most looking forward to this year.

The Steam sale is so good and I’m so fucking broke.

Probably a bit too late with this considering it came out well over a year ago, but I’ve never known a sequel to improve upon the original so much as Mass Effect 2.
Completing the first one was a massive struggle, and nothing but an experiment in mediocre space opera. The second, though, is pretty much perfect. I’m glad they did away with the inventory system and the awkward upgrades: seeing as it’s essentially a squad based shooter with RPG elements, it makes a hell of a lot more sense than fucking around with Oblivion-esque equipment tweaks.
I’m doing every side quest possible to stop myself completing it too quickly, and I can tell I won’t want it to end.
