Most people who know me know that I have a huge problem with people. Stupid people with no logic to be specific. One thing I can't fucking stand is someone who uses children's logic in an argument, which is what I call the "No You" argument. I often say "no u" on msn and IRL as a joke, but never in a real argument. What I mean by the "No You" argument is completely disregarding any facts or evidence at hand to make the same statement repetitively. I know one person who does this, Patrick, and everyone hates it about him. It's probably his biggest flaw.
Another thing I don't like is being forced into social situations that I'm either not prepared for or that I just straight up don't care for. For example, unprovoked/unwarned msn chats with people I don't know or don't care about. This happened to me today, and it cause a huge upshit because I didn't care for the person I ended up talking to. Let me make one thing clear to everyone reading this: I don't ask for friends. If I make a friend, it's because they happened to be in a position that would cause me to be in a good enough mood to make a conversation with, or conversation that comes up because of the situation at hand, conversation not being an actual situation. This happens to fit along the lines of why I hate my group at school. If I'm talking to someone, it's because I'm already comfortable talking to them. If I'm talking to someone new, it usually happens in small spurts.
To sum up the details, I don't like people who don't use logic in an argument, and I don't do well with new people because I don't generally like people to begin with. I don't make new friends easily, and it's because I can't stand people I'm expected to make friends with. I know plenty of people, and I don't like very many of them. For all of my friends out there, whether you consider this true or not, you're lucky to be my friend if you know me, because I'm not friends with very many people that I know. That's my choice. And if I don't like someone YOU know, don't be too offended, because they're not the only person I have a problem with, I guarantee it.

Me and my new iPod ^_^
I got the iPod I wanted. Well, no I didn't, I expected an 8 gig and got a 32 gig but I'm not going to complain about that. I've been looking for various games/apps for it almost all yesterday (when I wasn't playing the ones I got for it/other games I own for the Wii/DS). Today, I had to work >_> so I had less time to do that.
I've been downloading all kinds of free games, but I haven't found one REALLY addicting for what it's worth. I've specifically been looking for a good turn based game. I found one, but you actually do nothing but choose a target. Your character attacks automatically and uses skills automatically. And the only thing you do outside of battle is choose equipment and choose whether to train or fight monsters, which is basically the same thing but the monsters fight back as opposed to the targets you train against. But of course, your HP heals between battles, so yaknow, whatever, big shit.
I don't really have anything to say about that. I started this yesterday and couldn't think of anything to write. So uhh... don't do drugs.

Saki? None for me thanks.
We had a Saki Ceremony at Karate today (I guess it's past midnight but I'm still calling it today) where we sat around in a circle with candles in front of us and we talked about the year that went by and future comings etc. Sensei usually promotes someone at the Saki Ceremony, and this time around he promoted one of the other black belts to his first Dan, basically promoting him from Sempai (assistant) to Sensei (Teacher). That was a pretty exciting moment for everyone. I got my orange belt at a Saki Ceremony. I'm brown now. But anyways, back to today's ceremony. Not much else happened, I didn't have any Saki because I'm not big on alcohol, and I also don't like the taste (tried it at my first ceremony, didn't care for it).
After the ceremony, we decided to go to Boston Pizza a late dinner. We went to Don Cherry's every other year we went, idunno why we changed it this time but whatever. Anyways, shortly after the decision, I remembered I had a discount card that would work at a few different places for 20% off for a group of myself and up to 7 other guests. We ended up going to Kelsey's instead because it was one of the places that the card supported. I had ribs. Sensei Mike had all you can eat wings, which we all benefited hilariously from afterwards.
Basically, after a little while he decided to get 2 plates of suicide wings. He ate 4 wings, his son (who also takes karate) ate 1, I ate one, basically everyone ate one. Here's where the hilarious part comes in. Somewhere in the middle of all this, Klayton (who was promoted) stuck his finger in the sauce to taste it and broke out into a sweat. So Marie (obviously a girl who takes karate with us) said that she would eat a wing if he ate one. So they both ate one. Marie was fine, and Klayton was not. He was sweating like a friggen' metaphor. They did this two more times. Marie was still fine, Klayton was still not. We had a lot of laughs during this whole thing. When Klayton stood up, he noticed his pants were wet from sweat so I asked him if he peed himself.
When we left the restaurant, the 7 of us all said our goodbyes and "Merry Christmas"'s to each other. Except Marie didn't say Merry Christmas or even goodbye to me, even when someone mentioned it while they were leaving as a joke so I yelled a joke back and waited for my ride. Idunno what's up with that, she might have a thing for me (I have some circumstantial evidence from a good while back that shows she might, but whatever) so I'm thinking of trolling her for a while. I might update on that, but it probably won't turn out to be very interesting so I probably won't. But yaknow, when do I write anything interesting on this fuckin' blog anyway, right?

Merry Friggen' Christmas everyone!
Christmas is rollin' around, I figured I would get an early post in and get it out of the way. Maybe I'll talk about what happened after the holidays are over.
First off, I didn't ask for much. I need to replace my iPod because it's actually becoming unresponsive. By that I mean, the middle button doesn't always respond, and sometimes counts one click as 2, which can be kind of inconvenient. And sometimes, while trying to turn it off, (holding the play button), after I let go of the play button it turns back on again. This can happen repetitively until I manage to get the timing right. Yeah, turning off my iPod requires timing. So, I asked for an iPod Touch.
I got some T-shirts from a website called Shark Robot. 6 are for my friends, and 3 are for me that family or someone will get me for Christmas if they don't know what to get. I guess. Other than those shirts and the iPod Touch, I've got nothing on my Christmas list (since I buy my own video games). And I've bought for everyone I needed to, although idunno what's going on with my gift to my dad cause I was supposed to chip in with my mom, and then I was supposed to chip in with my sister, and now idunno who I have to chip in with or what I have to get him. I'll see how all that unfolds later. I'm considering getting a gift for someone else who I didn't previously have planned for (not telling who) but I wouldn't know what to get. I'll probably ask around for some answers or something, don't worry yourself unless I ask you myself.

Enough to complain, not enough to unsheath.
This whole "chasing bitches" thing almost seemed like it was going well. I had a high confidence level for a few days, but it's dropping and I'm having my doubts. I think I'm going back to an old paranoia of thinking that girls actually like me, but not being sure of/understanding it.
Nevertheless, it isn't NOT bothering me, but it doesn't seem there's anything I can do about it, and no one takes me seriously enough if I try or at least say something about it. I oft think reaching out to my readers can be the only way, but I feel like I've lost a few, either in the few weeks that I didn't post or just because people lost general interest and stopped reading. I'm gonna start reminding people to read, and maybe try and find a few new readers. Hear that people? Advertise me, I write for myself but this isn't a Goddamn diary, I wouldn't be writing a blog if I didn't want anyone to read it.
Anyways, back on topic, from what I've experienced in the past almost-year of looking for a girlfriend is that the pretty ones don't care. This has been absolutely fucking srs bsns for a good long time, and I'm talking about people like Kayla and Laurel (both who are in the group of nig- friends) who straight up don't talk to me. Only difference being Kayla USED to be a friend, but still not interested. But I'm not focusing on them, this isn't about them, this is about me, that was just an example so leave it be. Right now, I have a target, but there's an obstacle, and there's always a mother fucking obstacle, and that obstacle is a boyfriend often enough. And of course, that's what it is. And as long as that is there, the target is entirely unreachable. And that pisses me off. I feel like I've got a lot more to say about this but I'm not forming the right words for it right now so I'll leave you with a relatable song and be on my way.

Let's Start a Riot! Part 2.
Yesterday I talked about the Three Days Grace concert I went to last week. I'm going to talk about it some more, but less about the concert and more about the events that occured at the concert. First thing, Peter and Maegan both bought a shirt each for themselves, and I did not because the average price for a T-shirt was $40. Then we went onto the floor, and we met up with Jasmine and very shortly after, her friend Nat and a couple other people who were with her. Now, this is where it gets interesting. I wanna get something else out of the way first though. After Default finished their show, two of those other guys left to go to the washroom I guess, and only one of them came back later, and with some other girl. A girl I recognized as someone I had met a very long time ago, and only on one occasion. She seemed pretty happy to see me when she realized who I was, because she gave me a hug. After that, there was a bit of small talk, and then she ended up getting separated from the group, and has never been seen again. By me.
Anyways, back to the interesting part. Nat and these other guys, one who turned out to be Nat's boyfriend, came off as a bunch of people who would probably spend enough of their spare time getting high. As it turns out, 2 of them were. Nat, however, wasn't, which was a pleasant surprise to me. I didn't think much else of her though, but after Default's show was over, we started to make some conversation. During The Used, her boyfriend called out for a wall of death (which I'm not explaining), and during the wall of death, Nat grabbed onto my arm and said I had to protect her. She then let go shortly after I told her she was breaking my elbow. I was serious, my elbow was hurting, but I think I could have bore it if she didn't let go. Oh, FYI to my readers, I'm pretty sure she'll be reading this post. Anyways, by the end of The Used's show, and I had taken a significant liking to her. This was supported by me seeing her looking at me and looking away when I looked back. That may or may not have been my imagination, I'll probably find out eventually. There were some other things here and there that I like to think were signals but were probably just random acts of kindness that she wasn't giving to Peter for some reason.
Oh yeah, and I had some brief conversation with my co-workers upon walking by the consession stands, since I work at the arena. It wasn't THAT exciting... That's all I have to say about that.

Let's Start a Riot! Part 1.
Last week I went to a Three Days Grace concert, and it was fucking awesome. I don't have A LOT to say about it, because I don't really know what I could say about it without just describing what was happening, but I'll think of something.
Basically how I decided to go, was Peter told me a few months in advance that he was gonna go to that concert and take his girlfriend, Maegan, who is also my friend, and I asked if he would mind me going along, and he said sure. I did him a solid and ordered him the tickets online, and he paid me back in due time. On the night of the concert, I heard one of our other friends, Jasmine, was also attending. She bought her tickets much later than us, and had to pay $10 more than we did for the same seats. We were on the floor by the way. Anyways, we got there and I met a couple of Jasmine's/Maegan's friends who happened to be there too.
First, Default opened the show and played for a half hour. That was pretty cool. I don't listen to them myself, but I heard their music on the radio and stuff before so I recognized some of it. Then we waited a half hour after they were gone, and The Used came out. I didn't like them as much. The lead nig-*cough* singer said something about how anyone who doesn't smoke weed should smoke soon. Not so ironically enough, there were plenty of people in the audience smoking weed, and a few people blew puffs of smoke straight up into the air directly after he said that. Personally, I wasn't impressed.
After The Used fucked off, most of everyone in the audience fucked off. Peter laughed and said he knew everyone would leave after the used was done. And after about an hour of waiting, everyone started to come back en mass. I laughed at Peter for thinking everyone would leave, and after ANOTHER half hour of waiting, Three Days Grace came out. It was awesome, I'm not gonna get into details about their show. If you didn't go, then you don't care enough, I guarantee it. They played for about an hour and a half, and I recognized all of their songs (except one from apparently where the lead singer who's name I forget sang a song from his last band who's name I forget) and I sang along with everyone of them. Loudly. And not perfectly either, cause I can't hit the notes he was (my voice is deeper) so it kinda came out as death growling. And my voice occasionally cracked cause I'm not really used to that kind of pressure. Peter noticed my growling though, and said that I had a pretty good growl, which isn't something I can do in not very loud places. He also noticed my voice over everyone elses because I was so loud (and close, I guess).
It was pretty hardcore. I'll write more about this tomorrow, cause there are some side details that I don't want to cover in today's post, but I'll write about it tomorrow.

Go, Charizard!
It has been Goddamn forever since my last post. Oh well.
Me and that group of friends are having a pokemon competition, which I will elaborate on shortly. I have decided to take part in this competition myself for several reasons. One, I am an expert on pokemon around the people I hang out with, mostly because I go through vicious phases of pokemon gaming that can span over several weeks at a time, and it constantly sends me researching on different questions I have, even the little ones. Two, I figure I might get some respect from those ignorant cunts, and it has become somewhat successful, because they have realized my expertise on the topic, and as long as I don't give out my sources any error I make can be dodged easily. Three, it would be so Goddamn fun. We would all pile into my house, rig up some console idunno there's been some errors and I'm not 100% sure what we're gonna do about that yet, and we're gonna play Goddamn pokemon. It's gonna be awesome. Fourth, it gives me something to do in the meantime, and a goal to strive for. I'm doing it more for the fun of general competition than the actual confilct at hand, but I still think I would be a good addition to our setup.
So basically, it's that Chamander VS Squirtle argument that I mentioned in one of my other posts. There are a few of us starting with charmander, and a few of us starting with squirtle. I started with Charmander, because I like charizard better than blastoise, and the reason behind my whole argument is 1: dragon and 2: I prefer the fire type over the water type anyway. I haven't been playing much, but I don't feel like I have to do any more.
We are all playing Fire Red. The competitors include myself, Peter, Patrick, Chris, Kyle, Anthony, and I THINK Kayla, but I have no confirmation on that yet, despite my searching. We're going to have it set up on my gamecube (or wii if everything goes wrong) and have a level 50 all rule, so those of us who have less time to play, or people like me who get bored of the older games quickly enough, don't have a disadvantage. Also, people like Kyle, who only use one pokemon normally throughout the game, don't get an annoying advantage because he's got one overly powerful pokemon and the the randomly caught pokemon who are all the same level as the rest of us (but with no EVs I guess). However, as it turns out, and I only realized this TODAY, is that neither Pokemon Colosseum nor Pokemon XD gale of darkness have a level 50 all rule that CHANGES the levels of the pokemon to those respective levels. I thought they did, simply because pokemon battle revolution has this. This could cause a huge speedbump and cause us to have to do a lot of preparation directly on the day of the event, but it probably won't stop it. Probably.
I'm not gonna talk about my strategy, or my pokemon besides having chosen Charmander and obviously I will be using Charizard in the final event. I want any opponents getting wind of my strategies beforehand, if any of them are even readers, especially considering the fact I haven't posted in so long. But yaknow, they'll see soon enough I guess.
