A Place For Nerds

Full of nerd stuff! Unless it's empty!

Sitting at the Wii U

Repeatedly pressing the Smash DLC button in a desperate attempt to get more Cloud Strife in my life despite Finals tomorrow.

What are your thoughts on cloud being in smash? Personally I think it should've been someone more relevant to Nintendo's current scene. I feel like a character who has been in very few Nintendo games and is, for the most part, a PlayStation character shouldn't really be on the roster.

That’s fair, but I see Cloud as Smash 4′s Snake. Sort of an outsider (albeit Snake’s roots are more tied to Nintendo), but a fitting, cool addition to the roster. You can see my previous response for more of my thoughts!

All. Of. The. Hype.

Do not let Tumblr make you think:

That doing drugs makes you cool.

That being rude to your parents is okay

That being straight means you aren’t a person

That being controversial all the time is cool and will get you friends

That being blatantly rude to people to get your point across is okay

That being white makes you by default evil

That having a mental illness is cool

That cutting yourself is okay

That being a male means you are a rapist

That all men are evil, misogynistic monsters

That misandry is okay

That doxxing people’s personal information is okay if they said something you don’t like

That tumblr should be your vital source for controversial issues

That school doesn’t matter

That being narcissistic is cute

That making a minor mistake on a post will make the world hate you

That the world is a horrible place

A weird little doodle inspired by my niece (20) and nephew(15) who fall asleep as soon as they’re in a car:p

Anyway, I imagine they’ve been on some messy, exhausting monster killing mission and now they have a long drive back. Quistis is not in a good mood >: |

[lunamanar]

Reblogging again because I can’t not, today. I think I love grumpy Quistis almost if not as much as grumpy Squall.

I think one of the best parts of VIII's is how perfectly the group interacts. This captures it wonderfully.

Today, I fucked up... by picking up a hitchhiker and then showing up to my own funeral

This happened a few years ago and I was living in Zimbabwe at the time, and I was having a pretty bad day, I was going to see my auntie who lived about 400km away from me. If youre african you’ll understnad that this was no small journey. So I got in my car and set off and about 3 hours into the journey i came across a Dude by the side of the road who was going in the same direction, so out of the goodness of my heart i said jump in. we go to talking and he happened to be going to exact same village as me and he knew my auntie!.

Half an hour passes and we’re making polite chit chat and reminiscing about old times in zimbabwe, when all of a sudden he tell me to pull over, so I do. he runs out of the car and starts making wretching noises, so i assume he’s throwing up, its dark at this point so i cant really see much, so i go check on him ( first mistake). I get out and go to his side expecting him to be there but he’s not…..Then I here someone behind and me and before i know it im unconcious! so I wake up a couple hours later( iknow this becuase the sun was coming up at this point) without my car, clothes or wallet. so im thinking great. i look around and see im on some farmland wearing the giys clothes. SO i start walking in no particular direction and eventually come across a settlement.

I explain to them my situation and they tell me that the nearest main road is at least a good half a days walk from where I am and they dont get many cars coming through this part but they heard one last night ( which might be our thief). I start walking in the direction they point me in and after what felt like forever i come acroos a road, so I pitch up and start waiting, ( now i know most of you are thinking why not call someone, i had no phone with me and I dont have the best memory so I didnt know any numbers that would come in handy). after a couple of hours a car stops and lets me hitch I let him know the situaion and he says we’re in the complete opposite direction of my intended destination but he’s willing to drop me close enough to walk the rest of the way to which I thought great!

its takes a good two days to get there and he drops me off and i say my goodbyes to my driver, I take down his number so i can repay him later on. At this point im starting to recoginise my surroundings, I walk for a few miles and as im getting closer to my aunties i can here a lots of singing and what appears to be a large crowd which i though was strange. Im about 100 feet from the house and i see my Son which again i thought was strange because he was meant to be in school at this time, but instead of running to me and hugging me as he normally does…he runs away screaming to my complete bewilderment. I get to the the gate and all of a sudden the large crowd alerted by my sons scream has stopped singing and is stood silent. my wife appears and starts to run towards me hugging and kissing me like Ive been gone for months. My auntie appears and immediately faints when she sees me.

I still have no clue whats going on at this point and im exhausted, so we rush to get my auntie inside and I see my picture ontop of a large box that resembles a coffin sitting in the living room….

So it turns out that the guy who robbed me and made off with my car my wallet and all my clothes was in a car crash so bad that they couldnt identify the body and because the only things they could use to identify him was my wallet, they assumed it was me that had died in the crash. since there was no body of sorts they could arrange the funeral preety quickly and that is what I had stumbled upon. My son still has nightmares to this day and and my wife has told me never to pick up a hitch hiker ever again.

TL;DR Got carjacked, robber died and family thought it was me, they arrange my funeral and I somehow manage to stumble upon my own funeral.

The Successor Challenge: Miles To Go

Higher res PNGs

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost

I was going to write something short and eloquent here, but I think I’m going to have to settle for short. Although I’m not much of a poetry buff, I have always loved Frost, and when thinking about the criteria for this challenge these particular lines stood out in my mind. It seemed to fit well with FFVIII’s running theme of appreciating meaningful moments, but not dwelling so much on the past that you fail to look to the future. The passage of time, a moment of rest and reflection, and progression into the hopeful unknown were very important bullet points. In order to grow, you have to move forward, and having a common destination helps people grow together, rather than apart. That’s what I was going for, anyway. I never know if I actually capture these things well.

If we did, I really have to give skribleskrable​ the lion’s share (har) of the credit, though, because she drew and redrew panels and moved things around and put up with my dialogue micro-editing and pacing picky-ness all month long, and her suggestions were invaluable to the writing. Whatever work I put into this, she put twice as much. It’s been amazing and I’m so grateful to have had the chance to work with her.

Well, so much for short! I hope you enjoyed this piece. We had a blast making it.

(And happy birthday, Squall!)
