Getting Too Into It

Filed under: THOUGHTS — zaiss @ 11:25 pm

A true conversation from this evening:

Vince: “Dude, where you been?”
Me: “What do you mean?”
Vince: “You’ve been noticeably absent from the blogosphere.”
Me: “… I have a blog?”
Vince: “Um… dude?”
Me: “Who are you?”

So I’d like to thank that guy (whoever he is) for reminding me about my blog. It appears that I’ve been getting too into it at work, and my blogging paid the price. And then I paid the price, having to comb through 398 spam comments to find the one that was real. Man, I guess those guys from Bliksem really are crooks! In case you haven’t heard, don’t host with Bliksem. They are way too into it, and they lose site of their customers through all that hard “work.”

In the meantime, I’m moving forward with a policy of “Keep it mellow.” Incidentally, that policy is endorsed by Nintendo, who is encouraging people to not get too into playing with their Wiis (sorry, low brow humor slipped in there). My favorite quote from these new health guidelines:

For example, in Wii Sports bowling, the proper way to let go of the ball while bowling is to release the “B” button on the Wii Remote—DO NOT LET GO OF THE Wii REMOTE ITSELF.

Apparently if you get too into Wii Sports bowling, your Wii remote might fly from your hand, directly (too) into your TV.

  1. Oh man… and I thought I had gone overboard with low brow humor.

    MSNBC ran an article on this topic on December 7th (I so beat them by a week). Microsoft’s Games NewsWire for that day included the story, with a title of their own: Watch Out When Waving Your Wii.

    Yes… watch out indeed.
