What ride is it? There is this ride I keep seeing advertised where you get strapped into this... hammock thing and basically free fall for awhile and then swing back and forth. The falling looks absolutely terrifying, but I think I'd rather like the swinging. It'd be like flying, seems like. You could pretend you were Superman, stuck in some sort of cocoon. Or, uh, something. I AM NOT CRAZY. Silly laundry, doesn't it know that freedom is forward, not backwards, upwards, not forwards, and always twirling, twirling? (That would sure sound extremely crazy if you had no idea what I'm talking about! BUT I AM NOT CRAZY.)
Oh, thank goodness I'm not alone. And while I haven't played Thief, I am currently replaying Shadowrun from the beginning in order to get an awesome deck early on so I can get all the emails I missed out the first time. And, er, I spent about an hour yesterday trying to find Toothpick Man so I could attack him. And the guards mock him? Hee! I ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAME. Have you ever played any of the other Silent Hill games? I've never played the third or fourth ones, although I've heard they go in for the gore instead of the general creepiness. (I don't get that. To me, gore = gross, not really creepy. Radios that have static and you know a horrible monster is out there but you have no idea where it could be anywhere oh god -- THAT is scary. To me.)
The first one has some extremely creepy parts, although the voice acting is kind of bad. Like, there's this part where you go into a room and there is suddenly REALLY AWFUL MUSIC HOLY CRAP -- and there's nothing there. You think, but you're never really sure because you run out as soon as possible because the music.
I'm usually pretty quiet in real life, too. Especially since most of my friends aren't really into the same fandoms (or aren't into fandoms AT ALL) I am. Baco's pretty much the only person I've interacted with in real life who's shared most of my fandoms, and then it's pretty hard to get me to shut up. Is Tom Clancy an actual character? I was thinking it was, like, some crazy brand name or something. Which, um, doesn't make a whole lot of sense, now that I think about it.
Okay, see, here is a prime example of how I pick up information about Seattle. I was going, "Okay, don't know who Tulio is," googled it, went, WHAT WHY ARE ALL OF THE RESULTS ABOUT A SEATTLE RESTAURANT FLAIL. What happened with the gargoyle at the end? I can't remember. I think I was terrified of approximately half the Disney movies I watched as a kid, which still didn't stop me from watching Peter Pan over and over. (Tiger Lily! The ticking crocodile! The Lost Boys! AUGH.) And Mary Poppins, although I don't remember if it was actually made by Disney or not. (I was terrified of the old banker, too. I don't know if it was because he was just generally mean, or if it was because even as I child I sensed he was abou to keel over dead at any minute.) I love The Emperor's New Groove. I think I've made all my friends watch it, even though they usually go, "Ewwwww, Disney cooties!" But they all love it by the end, so.
I don't have any excuse for not watching Avatar because we do have pay TV and it is aired here, I just... don't really watch TV ever. Do you download episodes, then, or do you get the DVDs? Because it sucks not being able to watch things, I'm still insanely curious about the second season of Doctor Who and Torchwood.
I want to hear these voice clips as soon as I have bought Thief and heard his voice. Unless of course they're from the game, that might be a little pointless. They all sound awesome, though.
I cannot stop laughing at your spam. James is probably trying to get you to send him money so he can pay Mary for the fornication. Oh, James. She's not your Mary, she is clearly just another Silent Hill puppet who is trying to lure you into back into its clutches.
