VGL was interesting. I saw it 3 or 4 years ago.

Honestly loved the Zelda Symphony more.

Yes, Symphony of the Goddess was the much better experience for me. Apparently Distant Worlds is quite good as well.

Speaking of.. anyone attending Symphony of the Goddess on the 20th? We wouldn't have gone a second time merely because we don't have the disposable income to throw around, but someone just had to buy us tickets. Not that I should be complaining..

Worst part about VGL is that they still finish with Still Alive. Seriously? Portal came out in 2007. Come up with something cooler. I just shake my head when they pull out the acoustic guitar and everyone starts waving their cell phones.

I had thought about making the trip down to go to the Zelda Symphony thing. But as much as I love Zelda games, I don't know too much of its music.

One Winged Angel for me in 2007. I'm not the biggest fan. Now if they went out with Dancing Mad..

Our backdoor was actually wide open for a little bit today.

Still cold but warm enough after that bullshit we've had that the cold didn't even matter.

Baseball season is right around the corner!

I've been battling the thought of going because I have no one to go with. Had the same experience with Madoka: Rebellion but went anyways. But here it's a bit more costly and the time seems a bit troublesome for me.

Don't disappoint yourself. TORONTO SPORTS!

We were supposed to 'win the world series' a few years back and didn't even make the playoffs.

I believe there may be a toronto curse

I enjoy Spring Training. The players try (well, the guys fighting for a roster spot do, anyway), and there's no bitter disappointment. It's like meaningful meaningless baseball.

It's fun seeing what could be with the young pitchers. Norris and Sanchez looks good so far. I hope Sanchez eventually ends up in the rotation instead of the pen, dude is pretty good. Still need a 2b, legit closer and a cf though =/ Kinda sad they let Casey go, his second half was ass but I blame that on the food poisoning.

Yeah sad to lose Casey even though he might be declining. Well, if he had to land elsewhere, I'm glad it's the Nats.

People were yelling out portal references before it even started. I asked the GF if she was OK with leaving before it even began.

A lot of it was kind of embarrassing, IMO. Distant Worlds felt much classier, comfortable in its own skin, and less like it was pandering to its audience with shitty "we are gamers yay" humour.

The part where they showed someone else's shitty YouTube videos, and SubZero kills Donkey Kong and then decapitated Daisy (I think she's in DK?) made me think, "holy shit, is this what video games still are to so many people?"

Man wait till I tell you about my opinion on video game t-shirts (spoilers: most of them are terrible, but they sell anyway).

I don't know why people are surprised about VGL. What did you expect from a show co-created by Tommy Tallarico?

That's a major reason why I don't want to go to VGL lol. There was also yelling during the Zelda Symphony when I went :\

I never even heard of him until like two days before the show I went to. My editor said "Ok, I'm doing an interview with Tommy Tallarico. Who wants to come and hold the camera?" and I was like "I'll do it. Who's Tommy Tallarico?" So I had to Google him before we left the hotel, just in case.

I have a picture with him but I'm all sweaty and gross in it because fuck LA to death. #TeamBreathableAir

VG t-shirts are tacky as fuck, I'm coming back from PAX East this year with only buying the official T-shirt with the year on it. Other than like maybe 2 or 3 decent, subtle gaming t-shirts I had not bought from the typical PAX vendors, man, the stuff they sell you would not want to wear to anything except at PAX or to a gaming store. I wouldn't even want to be caught dead wearing that stuff to a GAF meetup.

That really sucks hearing about the talking and stupid jokes at a concert. I really shouldn't be surprised though... It does severely dampen the desire to go to any of them if it is like that.

And fuck y'all! I shall wear my Monster Hunter shirt with pride and pour Coors Lite on all of you at the next meet up! :mad:

Literally seeing the streetcar timer at Bathurst go from 6 minutes to 10 minutes, and then when it reaches to 4 minutes it goes up to 7 minutes. It's done this three times.
Line up is already a double line to the doors and then a spiral of like 70 people.

Don't worry, new streetcars are going to somehow fix that...

The good thing about the new streetcars is that they're long enough to service two stops at the same time.

I wish I could like that like on Facebook.
This is such a common occurrence at Bathurst and they insist on streetcars here? Meanwhile the northbound side has a lineup of two buses at all times

I am melting. Need to shed some of these layers.

Finally clued into the fact that Distant Worlds existing is why VGL isn't allowed to use Squaresoft imagery on stage when doing their tunes. Makes sense.

Don't know if it's because of the temperature or daylight savings or something else, but I only got 4 hours of sleep and I'm completely discombobulated.

If you see some dude downtown staggering around biting people, it's because I've succumbed to the virus and will be turning this place into Raccoon City, just like in the second Resident Evil movie.
