My brain is completely poisoned by too much internet and too many bad video games.
There was a template-thingie going around a Discord server I'm in to post your personal Game of the Year for every year since you were born, so I figured it makes for a good addendum to this old "Top 25 Games" post.

(Went by SA1's UK launch date, technically still 1998 by 8 days if you go by JP).

These MEN are to find a BIG MAN to let their LARGE ROOM to.

Guess they're a bit too old fashioned for Grindr in my hometown.

In my hometown for a wedding and while the towns a dump at least there's the local arcade to get me through the visits here.

Half the machines are always broken or sticky from loose kids or drunk adults, and the place *really* needs air conditioning, but the selection is great (for back-water UK).

Damn, I'd figure myself closer to the absolute bottom right. I need to work on being more of a dork.

We also found this sign. No idea where it came from or how long it's been there but I dig it.

Great time at Aberdeen Pride! Shame about the weather turning so fiercely but at least it waited until after the parade.

You know, I'm a sucker for these silly personality quizzes even if they're usually just engagement bait, but I don't think I have ever been so thoroughly roasted by one before in my life.

Take the fictional characters quiz and post the first four you know: openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac...

I got called in for Jury Duty today and couldn't find anything traditionally smart to wear.

I obviously can't say much, but I do think that given everyone else in the jury turned up in jeans and hoodies I, dressed like this, may have accidentally become an Ace Attorney NPC for the day by.

Thankyou Mister Bomberguy. I just got finished seeing them myself.

Season's greetings!
May the Christmas Goth bring you much Festive Gloom and Merry Melancholy this holiday!

Four and a half hours into the five and a half hour train from Aberdeen to Doncaster... And then an extra two hours to get from Doncaster to Penistone when I get there...

Bored bored bored. Both of us bored.

*Paying money* to go back to England, I must be mad.

There's also my Switch Year in Review but... I barely used it this year honestly. Most of those 122 hours in September were me forgetting to close Splatoon 3/turn the console off while it sat in the dock for a month untouched on the game's main menu.

If I've got 400 hours in Baldur's Gate 3, I played Baldur's Gate 3 for the first time this year, and Baldur's Gate 3 is only 20% of my playtime this year, that means I've spent 2,000 hours this year playing video games... 83 full days.
That's probably healthy and reasonable.

To the fridge it goes. Farewell 'nog, will you think of me in your fridge-y isolation as I will yearn for you?

I scaled my usual recipe up by 37.5% so I wouldn't have just 150ml of cream left over and it somehow worked out making almost exactly 4 pints of eggnog, which is handy.

Today's charity shop (+bonus CeX stop) thrifting haul paints a picture of me as a very particular brand of gay-ass dork. I haven't made up my mind yet whether the picture is complimentary or a condemnation.

Gay ass Christmas tree.

In the quest to preserve the good tweets from the hellsite, has anyone posted the Hideo Kojima BBC Sherlock tweet yet where he outs himself as a Johnlock shipper and refers to Sherlock and Watson's relationship as Boy Love?

What are 4 albums that would serve as an introduction to your taste?

First three were easy, the last one I spent forever trying to pick between like four different albums by different arists all of wildly different genres. Ended up sticking to one closer to my more general tastes in the end though.

At least the Christmas decorations are starting to look nice, even if it still feels about a week and a half too early.

It's a bit bloody chilly!!

They'll see sense and give you the recognition you deserve eventually. Until then, all I can offer is this consolation prize:
