Bias Free

The only thing worse than someone who is biased is someone who is "unbiased". This is proven true in many cases. Don't believe me? Try checking out IGN's forums sometime. Go ahead. I'll wait.

Okay, welcome back. It's angering enough when someone says "xbox360 sux and u should get ps3 cause its better u homo", but it's even more frustrating when the other person responds with "I own both a 360 and a PS3, so you need to grow up you fag." Really, guys? Really!? Nothing shows a higher level of maturity like one-upsmanship and a juvinille insult. Way to prove your point.

I can also vouch for this statement personally. This weekend I went into the Vikings/Saints game completely unbiased as to who I want to see go on to the Superbowl. By the end of the game, I ended up more pissed off than I have ever been at the hands of any Detroit Lions games. Christina, who is a Vikings fan, was on the couch watching the game while knitting a Vikings scarf. I don't know if one can knit angrily, but I'm pretty sure that if I would have touched her after the game, I'd be in the hospital having a needle surgically removed from my jugular.

So, Mass Effect 2 tomorrow. This disc swapping thing is interesting, since its been so long since I've last had to do anything like that. What is really interesting is their "outside the box" thinking in putting the first part of the game on the first disc, the main part of the game on the second disc, and the end of the game back on the first disc. Some people are complaining that they have to do two disc changes, but I am happy that I can play a majority of the game together on a single disc. But, I've played Final Fantasy games, so I'm really "unbiased" in this thought.

So I'm probably just a jackass in disguise.

  1. Regarding the knitting needles and the Vikings game, yes, you would have been stabbed. That is all.

  2. For some reason after reading this again, I have the mental image of a transformers commercial with the jingle "Justin- Jackass in Disguise"
