Awesome Verse of the Day (AVoTD): Waste of Time, Pennywise

I've got a question for all you sinners
Have you ever wondered is this all there is to life?
A quick adventure not much to mention
A slow procession leading us to die
Or is there a heaven a distant valley
A golden meadow waiting for us in the sky
No one right answer spirit seems broken
Still I just can't help but wonder why
Seems like a tragic waste of time
Who cares what happens when you die?
Life's too short to wonder why
Get on with your life

Pennywise - "Waste of Time"

Awesome Verse of the Day (AVoTD): Henchman, Bad Religion

Don't be a henchman,
Stand on your laurels,
Do what no one else does and praise the good of other men
For good man's sake.
And when everyone else in the world follows your lead
(Although a cold day in hell it will surely be)
That's when the entire world shall live in harmony.

Bad Religion - "Henchman"

Congrats to Christian Brierly

Friday rules. I'm headed up to Emily's college until Sunday night for a weekend of good food, good company, good soccer, and relaxation to the max.

You sirs, wish your weekends were as awesome as mine.

Darkfall Pre-Order Stuff, Continued...

Seems the pre-order got completely screwed up when they received ~20x the traffic they anticipated all at once. Tasos (Dev) issued a statement saying that basically their servers were being hammered beyond all reasonable expectation. It's broken now, and most people haven't been able to pre-order it at all. It's fortunate that so many people are interested in the game, but I'm a bit scared of what's going to happen to the servers on release. Here's hoping they didn't overestimate their capacity and under-estimate the amount of players that would be coming.

I happened across the pre-order about a minute after they posted it and managed to be one of the first handful of successful orders. So yeah, that is awesome.
