I ended up knocking out a shiny Murkrow.

Been having a huge headache for a week now. I can't even think right or understand what I'm saying. Think I'll go take a nap, and see the doctor tomorrow.

Learning that Blockbuster Video has finally shut it doors. Since that is the last brick and mortar video store in my area it signifies the end of an era to me. I have so many fond memories of renting stuff from video stores when I was a kid and even up into my teenage years and young adult. There were so many games that I would have never played if it weren't for Blockbuster.

I knew this was just a matter of time due to Netflix,GameFly and Redbox but it is still sad to see it go.

Finding out that the only Wii U Virtual Console download this week is Wario's Woods.

Edit: Yeah the new Youtube comment system sucks and too bad about Blockbuster.

@UnknownNico Ugh, that had to be rough. I hope you have better luck next time...

@ShadowFox254 I hope your visit with the doctor goes well!

@WingedSnagret They know we have nowhere else to go to for entertainment so they can do whatever they want. It sucks.

@Tasuki Really? Huh. That sucks. I discovered Star Wars Battlefront thanks to Blockbuster...

@GustavoSF Aw, man! I hope you get your hands on a Wii U sooner than later...

@Dark-Luigi Not caring never got anyone anywhere. I'll be praying for you and your grades.

@DarkLuigi
E? I thought letter grades were only d and f?

Don't give up son. You can always ask for help whenever you have trouble like your teachers/parents/friends.

Was Mariobro4. No, I'm not taking off my backpack...it's important.

Don't give up @Dark-Luigi. You're at an age where a letter can determine your future and hang your life in the balance! The sooner you're done with it all, the better. It'll pay off in the end. You can do it!

Also, that "new deleted scene" featuring the death of a certain Gungan that's become insanely popular.

Similar to the writers and target audience of a certain Gungan.

I don't know about putting actual children in the same boat, they deserve more credit than that. I believe they're smarter than the blood-thirtsty psychos that are so-called "adults."

The writers did fairly well with balancing his comedic acts and his general seriousness in TCW. With Eps. II and III he was a serious, good-hearted, if a bit naive guy. Everyone acts like he would grab the camera, shake it around, and scream annoyingly into it for two hours. [Heavy sigh]

Its a never-ending argument, it would seem...

Google, we simply do not care about Google+. At all. Please stop forcing us to use it just you can show your shareholders the number of G+ accounts there are, even though the number of them that actually use the website is less than 1% of the account numbers.

I wasn't putting children on the same boat, I was just mentioning that his target audience was children. And I wouldn't be so quick to judge the adults who were happy to see Jar Jar die...

I don't know about that. The argument stopped pretty quickly when I found out about Jar Jar resembling (whether or not it was intentional) black caricatures in minstrel shows and early American cinema, due to his broken English, clumsiness, naivety and shuffling gait, all typical traits of a black character from that time. Physically, he has large nostrils and his "lips" make up half of his face, both traits commonly exaggerated in black caricatures. The Gungan accent, which sounds vaguely Caribbean, doesn't help the issue. Jar-Jar's first lines in the series, "Me-sa your humble servant," call slavery and domestic servitude to mind. Whether or not all of that was intentional, that's still a very valid reason to dislike Jar Jar.

I'm not saying everyone hates Jar Jar for that specific reason, I'm just saying that some (myself included) do. You shouldn't jump to conclusions and call people "blood-thirsty psychos" for wanting to see a character (that might bring back memories of a less accepting and enlightened time) die.

Woke up with an earache. It's faded, but it's still there...

@CanisWolfred Yeah. Since then, it's gained sentience and is now trying to take over the Internet.

I wish I was joking too.

@Mickey Or maybe it's just the fact that people are overly sensitive and try to find racism/sexism/whatever in absolutely anything...

@WTV_94 I suggest you be sensitive to "people's" sensitivities. Whether you think they're "overly sensitive" or not.

I am, but there are points where the sensitivities go overboard..
