Once more into the breach
we go. Buckle up and simmer down, because you’ve got another week of no
Genericide slamming straight in front of your headlights like the world’s most
disappointing dead deer. I mean granted, I can’t think of a situation where a
dead deer would be welcome, at least
for the mentally sound. Perhaps it’s a deer filled not with grotesque deer
guts, but instead delicious candy? Though at that point it isn’t so much a deer
as a deer-filled piñata. I don’t know at what point we want to draw the line
between deer and abomination of science, this isn’t a blog debating the
philosophy of transdeerism. Besides, piñatamancy has been banned in these parts
for centuries, so the point is moot.
Back in the realm of
coherent lines of thought that are worth wasting brain space on: we have news
on the next post! Front and center
amongst these interesting tidbits of knowledge is the following: Next post is not
this week. You are not, in fact, reading it. Though Oblivion does in fact
contain deer, I’m reasonably certain none of them are shambling piñata golems.
Though I’ll grant you that should probably be a mod.
The reason actual content
has yet again been waylaid and left to rot by the side of road is as follows: I’m
getting a new computer. I’ve been chugging along on this nearly six year old
laptop since before college, but I’ve been gainfully employed long enough to
change that. Since I spend essentially all waking hours in front of some manner
of computer barring meals, commutes and playing console games, I figured
securing my own desktop was a worthwhile investment. Plus, I can’t play Dark
Souls 3 or Fallout 4 on this thing, which is the most tragic and traumatizing
set of circumstances my first world problem brain can comprehend.
In order to combine the
best of staying power and not-being-poor, I’m attempting to build this desktop.
You would think that someone who spends what seems like several lifetimes
rambling about video games would have a good grasp on electronics. I would
think so too, except I’ve met me. My
technical aptitude in the realm of computer hardware is only slightly improved
over my knowledge of 19th century steam engines, ballroom dancing, or piñatamancy.
That is to say, I know so little others in my presence actually have their understanding
dampened.
Since my intellect is
like a six hundred pound marathon runner in this regard, I’ve relied entirely
upon online guides, friendly advice, and ritualistic deer sacrifice to pull
myself through. The result is that my decisions took some time, which led to
the update delays, which is the thing you actually care about. I mean,
presumably. I’m not sure why else you’d be reading this. You could just be
really, desperately bored. Or coming
off a google search for piñatamancy.
The bottom line is that
next week, there should be an Oblivion article. The current one is a ways
along, so I should be able to polish it off. However, the week after is likely
another update break. I’ll no doubt be occupied with computer assembly and
selfish Dark Souls 3 binging. After the break we’ll move on to the next
article, which I believe was Super Paper Mario. No wait, I just checked last week’s
update, I was wrong. It was actually Pretend-It-Isn’t-Super-Paper-Mario-But-Hint-Through-Incredibly-Transparent-Puns...Game.
Aw yeah. That’ll throw em
off the scent.
