That's right, folks. It's THE REACTOR.


Product is so cool, it has controllers LIKE the Wii's but with MORE BUTTONS.

Heck, it has games built in, including BOMBER MAN!

Over at Kotaku.com, I had looked at an article about the summons in Final Fantasy XIII and how they could turn into VEHICLES. Why, the only thing cooler than that would be to have the summons turning into trendy outfits your characters can wear.

^^-^^_^^-^^

Well, I decided to make my voice heard so I posted a reply. Here's what I said:

How people are still buying these new Final Fantasy games is beyond me. This looks disgusting. What's next, summons turning into mechs that characters can climb into? Is this becoming Digimon season 4 now? Wait, are there going to be powerup cards like from season 3? How did we go from masterpieces like Final Fantasy IV, VI, and IX to THIS?

Go back to riding Chocobos and flying ships with masts and sails!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZ9LtBos_Zg It's hard for Lewis Black to get a word out for some reason, especially if he doesn't have his stuff already written out like for a comedy routine. Hearing him talk and waiting for him to get a word out is like drowning. You can't take a breath until that word comes out. But I like what he has to say anyway.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRmDSK3sPdc Obama's got the b-ball skillz.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2d243bG6so Ha ha, nice series of clips from Michele Bachmann.
Oh, and this Ed Schultz guy is silly.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nufGsw26-NA I only like this video because of the Michele Bachmann part. The other two parts before her I don't really care about. So what if John McCain laughed at a joke, even if it was a bad one? John McCain has defended Obama before and called him a good person. Anyway...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luQ8ujkmekE Obama won some award or something... Nobel Prize... for KICKBOXING! Or not...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lahfvVAwagI
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAUswYOv85M
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVVOZB4kuGg Some people don't seem to like Obama's award. Olympics in the US? BOOOO! Our president winning a prestigious award? BOOOO! Puppies and kittens? BOOOO! (Watch all three videos for full effect.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMJuEOaF84o Rachel Maddow brings up good points in her defense for Obama's Nobel Peace Prize win.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5Xg-VLXmfg This is why I like John McCain. Despite what you may think of his actions during the 2008 campaign, he really is a nice, respectable guy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpiZSls4Kp4 This guy... not so nice... 'cept maybe in the next vid.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ic0ZwAPJ5RA I like what this guy says at the end. "They like to FIGHT each other." What, are they dogs? "Spray 'em with the hose!" At least Glenn didn't agree with the guy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxNpyGg_Sgo Now this is an Alan Grayson speech I can get behind 100%... that is, if he's reading that Harvard report properly. Correlation does not imply causation, and all that jazz.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4qUKmuCdvc Wow, I guess Republicans, for the most part, really want Obama to fail. Instead of making lemonade out of lemons, they're cutting down the lemon tree to plant their own fruit... especially if they think that lemon tree is trying to take over their lives. I'd rather have the government run most things than big business corporations. It's big businesses and greed that have been messing up this country. Why not add some elements of socialism to counter the effect? I mean, do people really think Obama is going to turn this country into a 100% socialist country overnight or something?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTl49g8dPs8 I don't think Bill O'Reilly should be interrupting and laughing at a general...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNEhDc-36rs I only listen to Keith Olbermann because he reminds me of Ben Affleck when he was impersonating him on SNL and that was funny.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI36OxNeEQM Sarah Palin committed to knowing as little as possible? Hey, if the apocalypse looks that good, I'll pay 10 bucks to see Sarah Palin win.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j41iy7E0XeM Americans for Prosperity are silly people. Forget that they cheered the US losing the Olympic bid. They have promoted speakers who compare Obama to Hitler and other horrible leaders and don't believe global climate change is real. Oh, and they're backed by some oil company or something.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zd2yf-3hOOw Meghan McCain sure does like making the conversation about herself. John McCain is usually cool but this lady shouldn't be getting any air time. "Agree to disagree." About what? Lack of evidence? If you think there's evidence, where is it? Either way, I have no clue what they're talking about. She just seems like some random blonde that was picked up from the streets to be on the show, which I'm sure Joy Behar wouldn't say no to. "Who cares? So what?" *picks at dress*

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqBnMSp32o0 Isn't this a kind of treason? Those traitorous Republicans! Why I oughta... aw, forget it. *plays video games*

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWr4CXpWA2Y This is the most awesome argument. Hey, maybe the guy wasn't a great moderator... but I did research on Betsy McCaughey (who I don't think came up with the term "death panel") and it seems that most of her claims are proven to be flat out wrong by websites FactCheck.org and Politifact.com. I don't know what her agenda is but she sure doesn't like facts.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Df_X1SOkRXo This is why I hate, hate, HATE combining politics and religion. Politics and the agenda of certain groups of people will only corrupt religious teachings.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJSbyGT_8KE Is he sure he doesn't mean GIANT beetles are taking over America? I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycSzMExaUlU Keith Olbermann is so silly yet looks so SERIOUS with his serious glasses and serious haircut!

I think this is my best news video LJ entry yet. Not a single thing about Alan Grayson.



 
Current Mood: busy

Yeah, I'm taking these videos pretty much from the same source on Youtube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKwN6K1Mbkc Guy on the right later in the video says it's nuts for anyone to think that Obama's life is at risk. Opposition to health care in the townhall meetings shouldn't worry anyone? Didn't someone get their finger bitten off at one of those meetings? Maybe it's just Obama's finger that's at risk.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fKWg1zILI4 Nice display of Glenn Beck craziness. I love all the weird facial expressions and noises he makes. What a great physical comedian.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAxuO6LNjLA As much as I agree with Alan Grayson, the guy is friggin' nuts. Then again, I'm sure he's not the only one in Congress who is. I love his take on the Republican health care plan, though.

1. Don't get sick.
2. And if you do get sick...
3. DIE QUICKLY.
4. ???
5. PROFIT!

Wait, I don't think that's how it goes...

(Hope I haven't done that joke already.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkaSRnrAaaw Joy Behar should really leave The View and just stick with this job. I'd rather see her interviews than anything on The View.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKwycRwXtrc Glenn Back is actually nuttier than Alan Grayson. He should be in Congress.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifHked2zEtU More from crazy ol' Alan Grayson. This guy definitely has to be from Florida.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuQM0WUsckM Hopefully this ends the whole Alan Grayson thing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luh8aKOlLhE Just wait for James Carville's turn to talk. James Carville... I want to play whatever sport you're talking about that involves "football bats."

This no-talent, overrated hack (Kanye West) forces himself into the spotlight yet again at the VMAs. I don't know how his name hasn't disappeared into oblivion. It's not like his music or his singing is any good. He's not a likable person either. He's just a douchebag.

It would be in good taste to NOT STORM THE STAGE AND RUIN AN IMPORTANT MOMENT FOR A FELLOW MUSICIAN, you total dirtbag!

There, see how I flipped one of his lines and turned it back on him? I can make ridiculous statements, too. Watch:

Kanye West doesn't care about white musicians!

http://www.walletpop.com/blog/2009/07/16/atheist-ad-campaigns-come-in-peace

Huh... silly ads.

"Imagine no religion." What am I supposed to be imagining? Peace on earth? How about "Imagine no humans?" Then there would finally be peace... until a meteor hits or something. Or maybe they could try "Imagine no disagreements." Blaming religion for any of society's ills seems about as ridiculous as blaming violent video games. Either case does not tackle the actual root of the problem and acts as a short cut instead.

"There's Probably No God...Now Stop Worrying and Enjoy Your Life." Now that's just a bummer. I'd hate to see this on the bus. It's like reading an ad that says "Yeah, you're wrong! Nya nya!" And there's no way to argue back. Specifically, I'd say "Just because I'm religious doesn't mean I'm a worrywart or I'm not enjoying my life."

"Why believe in a God? Just be good for goodness' sake." Because I FEEL like it! *PUNCH* Nah, I wouldn't actually punch...

One individual, not an ad, says, "I'm proud to be an American [...] I'm a good person. I pay taxes, abide by the law, and I'm good to my family. I help people. I believe hands that help are better than hands that pray." You know what I think is even better? Hands that help AND pray. Helping AND praying... is that a really difficult concept to grasp? It's not like a person who prays is entirely helpless. It's not like they physically cannot help more than those who do not pray because they take regular breaks to pray.

Whatever... silly ads are silly.

DO NOT WATCH TRANSFORMERS 2.

As if the first movie wasn't crappy enough to show people that any sequel, especially if directed by Michael Bay again, would be complete and utter trash. Now, in this link are 8 reasons (with spoilers) on why you should avoid watching the movie.

The writer of this article goes on at one point about the legalization of pot for some reason or another... just read past that. It's the use of pot to try and be "funny" in the movie that's the real problem. Just like the original movie used jokes about urine and masturbation to be "funny."

I still don't know if any Transformers in this movie "lubricate" on anyone but the stuff in this movie that some Transformers DO engage in is crazy enough.
