Age of Conan OST

Age of Conan, the MMO, was fun for about a few days, then it got boring and the faults became glaring. Lots of minor annoyances later I decided to ditch the game forever. It sucked, and was about as entertaining as staring at a turtle crossing a desert. Sure, the graphics were absolutely fantastic, and I had a machine that could run it decently enough. Sure, the combat was “real-time” or whatever that was supposed to be. Sure, the game was the world of Conan, which is kind of awesome, right? There are many things I remember about the game, most of it easily forgettable, and even more has already been forgotten.

What do I still remember about the game that’s positive? The music. AoC had (has? =P) some of the best ingame music I’ve ever had the pleasure of hearing. It helps being a huge fan of a lovely female voice singing with pompous music in the background, but it’s not the only good music in the game. As I’m listening to the OST I’m both amused and saddened by the gem hidden in such a turd. If the rest of the game had the same level it’d rock so immensely.

Funcom did a lot of stupid decisions along the way, thankfully the music isn’t one of them, so I guess I should thank them for that :)

Left brain vs Right brain

Seems this thing is true, atleast in 90% of the cases, I think. I’m overthinking it, but if 90% of it is true, why not the remaining 10%?

Check it out for yourself, it’s definitely worth it, in my case ;P

Porn without sex

In case you’re not on Twitter and might have missed this outstanding and hilarious filmclip I thought I’d link it here too. I couldn’t stop laughing when I saw it the first time.

While on the topic of brilliant quotes

I stumbled over this site when I was idly surfing around for hints about upcoming Terry Pratchett books. A collection of brilliant quotes from his books that contain more wisdom than most of the idiotic quotes people throw around like a flowered battering ram to beat down stuff.

Revolutions always come around again. That’s why they’re called revolutions. - Terry Pratchett

Bishops move diagonally. That’s why they often turn up where the kings don’t expect them to be. - Terry Pratchett

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do the bad things. - Terry Pratchett

The Mafia Arrives at Norwegian Schools for the Betterment of All

We have feared this moment since the beginning of our idealistic society where we began creating cocoons around our children at all times so that they might stay safe from the perils of the adult world, be it porn, porn or porn. Yet strange as it may sound it’s not the porn that is placing our children in a dangerous spot, nay, ’tis malnourishing packets of cheap noodles distributed by evil and scheming Mafia hellbent on corrupting the younger generation forever to the viles of the elder generations.

Even as we speak this disgusting enterprise that preys on the weaker elements in the schools continues despite the intervention of the Well-Meaning-Adult-Supervision to curtail and curb this most heinous variation of a twisted capitalism.

Starting their days by packing their suitcases at home, stuffing it with their filthy products and mentally going over their daily profits like any white-collar worker trying to make a healthy profit, they bid farewell to their parentage and head out for a day of further income.

’tis not even limited to the sales of these filthy products, nay! These vile creatures are even blocking the innocent from entering into their folds if they do not bring them monetary items, thus buying their way into the possibility of purchasing aforementioned disgusting product.

Here the world, the news outlets, charming fellows like Disney, and many others have tried to teach the younger generations how to properly treat your fellow man in an upstanding manner. And then they dare to follow in their footsteps of how to create and conduct a business without any regard for the health and wellbeing of those around to make a profit. Disgusting young people indeed.

Crack down on these filthy buggers I say! Give them the whip, hang them, force them not to try to act like their betters in the most efficient manners possible. Give these ingrates a lesson they will never forget, lest they try to continue their malpractices because we haven’t made them fear our whips and will enough.
