oh internets

While browsing f!s today, I discovered something.

Minesweeper fanfiction exists. Not only in the form of someone playing the game.. but there is a Bomb/Smiley fic on ff.net... where Minesweeper has its own section. I am amused.

I guess rule 34 always wins?

I have decided to once again do what I tried to do.. two years ago (?).. in terms of setting a goal of anime I would like to watch this year. The fact stands that I have a massive backlog of things I would dearly like to watch and I just need to make the time to watch a bit here and there. I'm not sure what to aim for though. I already will be counting the 5 anime club series towards that list... so I suppose maybe saying 10 on top of that is a fair number.

So far lined up I have:
1. Speed Grapher
2. Soul Eater
3. Lucky Star
4. Black Cat
5. Jigoku Shoujo Futakomori
6. Nodame Cantabile - Paris

And I still need to get Vampire Knight, Hayate and Princess Tutu.

*shrug* I can try again at least. This time the series I want to watch are all not too long (like that time I tried Kenshin).

Gonna try to up my reading as well. Finished reading Ender in Exile over vacation (it was so awesome!) and I bought Xenocide yesterday to re-read. I figure maybe now that I'm not in middle school, it might make more sense to me. I also am a good way into House of Leaves and a Terry Brooks novel. (lol I start reading again and go right back to my old ways of starting like 3 books at once).

So I guess those are 2 of my resolutions for 2009. Anything else can be written down for me to ponder over.

edit: Hah. After I posted this, I got a Coho AIM bot connection (as I normally do). The message sent was "Stop trying to do the impossible!" and I totally wanted to send back some Gurren Lagann lyrics.

In other news, my brother is pitching a fit because my parents told him he isn't allowed to leave on a road trip tomorrow with his friends to take one of them back to school in Virginia. *eyeroll*

oh man the minesweeper slash. I keep running into this in some capacity every once in a while. It is actually well-written so--

Your icon... wut?

And I didn't actually read any of it, I just read the summaries.

I never would have thought that minesweeper could be turned into a fanfic... but it is! I read one of them, it was actually not half bad. I was impressed. Made me want to play more minesweeper, kill off all the games, lol.

xD Now I might have to read some of it.

And yes.. mention of the game always makes me want to play.
