I am Oprah, hear me eat.

JHF Down Period: Day 8

It's difficult to maintain a website in high school, especially if you like to be involved in education-related activities or overrated sports. Jack High Flush was starting to feel like a chore, or a really low-paying job, so it was/is time for a little break, for the sake of time and quality. If you dislike me for that, sorry. Just don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

A recent semi-obession of mine has been The Warriors: the book by Sol Yurick, the John Hill-directed movie and now Rockstar Toronto's beat-em-up. "Cult-classic" never really meant anything to me until I was sucked into one. The Warriors, to me at least, is excellent and nothing else comes close to creating such a unique world. To 89% of the world, however, it is a nonexistant story with some weird characters. If you like the Warriors, you love it. If you don't like the Warriors, you think little of it. It fits the definition of a cult classic, and I guess that following includes the likes of me now.

Towards the end of the Jackitron show, the award for best game was given out to Catwoman because EA Games had taken over the world. The winner was supposed to be World of Warcraft, but the more I ponder that thought, the more it's wrong. WoW isn't as much as a game as it is an alternate life. Several friends of mine have been consumed by the addicting and controlling ways of Blizzard's uberly-successful MMO, and they will never be the same person again. Often times they find themselves discussing WoW for hours, even while they're away from the game. WoW takes over an entire person's being, making it a master rather than a video game. In conclusion, God of War is better anyways.


It's amazing he can be so motivational when he's got bear traps on his nipples. Posted by Picasa
