Am I A BaD Enough Dude... - Probably?

I'm terrible at puns, or am I unconsiously great at making terrible puns? I'm not sure.

Might as well make it all official like and declare my intentions to take part in BaD this year, so I give advance warning for all the rambling bits of nonsense I most certainly will provide.

I did something similar last year on 1up as part of a list of certain things I've always wanted to do, and I just thought it'd be a neat idea to actually take part in it this year.

Speaking of that project of mine, I figured out why my brain's been bugging me with old writing ideas lately. While I was going ahead with it, I made plans to share some of the ideas I had about stuff I was working on with a group of other people way back when. Then my laptop got hit with a virus and I had almost completly forgotten about it, but it seems my unconscious mind didn't. I'm not sure I'll be sharing those ideas or not on here, though I haven't dismissed the idea entirely.

In other news, my TV's been on the fritz for the past few weeks, and it's only getting worse. About a week ago the usual display went a little screwy, changing to this odd assortment of colors before shutting itself off. Then yesterday, while my brother and I were trying to catch up on our Horror-themed DVD binge, for about 20 minutes it absolutely refused to stay switched on. It then alternated between flashing this dark green color and showing a glitched up version of the usual options menu before again switching itself off. After that it worked just fine, as if none of the other stuff happened. I really need to get it checked out.

Haven't had the time to finish up the Bravely Default demo, mainly due to the aforementioned TV troubles as well as taking the time out to do some writing now and again.

Ok, bye.

Our living room TV is acting up as well. It's an old CRT and it gives off a buzzing noise when turned on. So annoying. On the plus side though, at least TV's are much cheaper nowadays than they were even three years ago. Things could always be worse.

Yeah, I've been on the lookout for a new set for a while now anyway just to keep an eye out for a good deal.

sounds like your TV has been taking drugs.  Many TV's are drug addicts on the side.

That would certainly explain a lot. Personally I think it's possessed by an entity that has a problem with The Shining. While it has messed up while my brother and I tried watching other movies, it felt like it went out of it's way to convince us not to watch so much as the opening scene.

I look forward to your ramblings and nonsense. :)

Aw, thanks.

I hate technical difficulties more than anything. Hope it all gets sorted out.

It was annoying for the first few minutes or so, then it became a bit of a game between my brother and I. We'd take turns guessing how long it'd take before the TV just gave up and shut off.

Yeah, after today, I still just hate technical difficulties. Glad you could make it fun for yourselves, though.Laughing

Just started the Bravely Default demo myself. The title's meaning is clear to me now as it references the tactic to defend to store up a bunch of attacks. It sounds like Bravely Ran Away to me though like in the song from Monty Python's Holy Grail movie:

I wish I had thought of that, Holy Grail is one of my favorite movies ever!

And that's Neil frickin' Innes as Robin's main minstrel in the movie. I just listened to Neil's band The Bonzo Dog Do-Dah Band too and it's awesome. He wrote the Sir Robin song too I believe.

Oh BaD puns...

I have a feeling that my cringes are in for a wild ride!

They'll definitely get a workout, that's for sure!
