Voted for it when it came up a while back.

Better not be $15, would've gotten it on the DS if it wasn't for that price.

Sorry to derail this topic (again)

You can't really do that when this isn't the kind of topic that can get derailed. We get occasional legit discussion sometimes.

I know social interaction isn't necessary to lead a perfectly fulfilling life, but on some nights (such as last night), I just let the whole "I'm never going to find 'that one person'" thing get to me.

This used to get to me for a long time, but I just got over it eventually. You see, I just eventually realized that the notion of finding somebody was never going to happen, some people give me [parasitic bomb] about it but in all reality I don't really think they care. Though chances are if there is somebody out there for me, I will never meet them because I won't ever come into contact with them. That's life.

I mean, 90% of the people around me are leading happy, successful lives wherein they have someone or potentially have someone.

And on my side 90% of those people have either:
1) Been in a relationship before the one they're in now
2) Are about to divorce
3) Recently broke up because the girl was a cheating [classy lady]
4) Been married forever

Its a wide spectrum.

The ones that don't?  They either eventually get tired of me or stick me in the "friend zone" for whatever reason.  To add insult to injury, I also sometimes get the whole "You're a real great guy" and "You'll find someone" speech from people.

High School in a nutshell, needless to say I wasn't great either, IIRC there was somebody who did say that they did like me, but I would've friendzoned them. Honestly, she was right. So its not like I was the only one getting rejected, because I rejected somebody too (Though when they said that it was pretty much after they had gotten over me, so maybe it wasn't that big of a deal?).

I know some people have been waiting longer than I have for happiness.  But the countless years I've been sitting in isolation, unable to do jack about things due to circumstances beyond my control...  Well, like I said, it just gets to me sometimes.

And you know, there isn't anything wrong about that, different people handle emotions differently.

I'm just a tad bit self-destructive at times...

Everybody is to some degree.

This isn't really Healthy Social Interaction. Healthy Social Interaction is the idea of having people you can hang out with, friends you can count on, and individuals with whom you can talk with. Bullying, teasing, rejection is part of life and is hard to avoid, especially since most people avoid it because they have been bullied, teased, rejected, etc., or at least have a fear of it.

While I agree that Healthy Social Interaction is not needed to live a decent life per se, I think it's needed to have a healthy frame of mind to deal with those issues when they arise, cause they always will in life no matter how much you try to avoid them.

Yeah, I know that. I do have friends, its just that most people I used to know have long since moved away or have become impossible to contact. Its tougher nowadays since the only time I'm actually out of the house in a social environment is when I'm at class, and even then its pretty much "Go to class, do a little discussion with the people around you, go home", though that's what everybody else does too.

I mean, my parents want me to find some new friends but it's not exactly feasible, but its fine since I've honestly gotten used to being by myself.

I'm tempted to ask for some kind of explanation for that, but I'm not sure I'd like the explanation I got.

I just mean that "Healthy Social interaction" isn't needed to live a decent life, save yourself the grief of getting rejected/bullied/teased/played on/ridiculed/etc. by eliminating social interaction down to the absolute minimum.

Well, got my five shiny stars in NSMB2 today.  ...with just under 100,000 coins.

And Nintendo wants me to do that nine more times?  Eh, no thanks.  Even at 7k a pop in World 2-4, that's still pretty darn insane.  If they wanted to bank on people playing the game's multiplayer forever, they should have made it online.  At least with a console game you only need one system for multiplayer.

Guess for handhelds I'll be going back to Mario Kart 7.  I still need to try and do the whole Kid Icarus on Intensity 9 thing, too.

Coin Rush.
Mushroom Pack, making sure Mushroom-1 is the first stage.
Gold Flower.
Run and hit the checkpoint, use the earlier enemies to get around 500 coins.
Go into the pipe where the first Star Coin is, Run and jump onto the koopa twice.
Break the bricks to form a small set of stairs.
Infinite 1-UP trick, making sure to stop at about 900 coins (The Koopa only has 1,000 in him, and if you take them all then he dies and doesn't respawn.)
Do that twice more, third time feel free to kill it.
Run to the end.
Top of the Flagpole.
Next two stages don't matter so long as you get the top of the flagpole in the second stage (The third is always a fortress IIRC) to double your score, just killing the boss in a Fortress produces the same results.

You'll get the maximum 30,000 for Coin Rush, save that as your record so you can always Challenge it to get more.
I got to my 1,000,000 within a week thanks to that. I'm not going to bother with 9,999,999 though, not worth it.

I gather Rush isn't articulated (or at least not much) if he's a pack-in, but getting a Classic series 3-for-1 is still a pretty sweet deal.

He has visible joints on his knees. Chances are he has full leg joints and a head joint at least, this is a Japanese figure after all and not a lazy American one with two joints.

I mean, Articulation is a must with Bandai's Poseables.

Ratchet & Clank.

Yeah but then you need a proxy, and with the price of that its going to be about the same or more.

Posted on: September 06, 2012, 10:41:27 PMGot an order of both Lancelot and Megaman from BBTS for January, which hopefully means my wallet [twin slasher] will be less severe.

While I was there I saw some of the prices for the 12''PM series. Bandai X Medicom do not affordable pricing make, one of those will set you back $300, C-3PO is $400 due to being made mostly of metal.

It was to be expected though, its a line for the people who buy Real Action Heroes and other expensive poseables.

[tornado fang]ing Japan and their hard-on with having lots of stuff that I want release in December.

Also D-Arts Megaman has some new pictures and is up for Pre-Order on AmiAmi, It really looks a lot better now.






On a more negative note this thing has to rear its head, [tornado fang]ing improved re-releases.

Oh my...

And how much will those be, I wonder...

Well, seeing how Bandai put out a 14'' figure for $440 (Said figure is the S.H. Figuart of the Akibarangers Transforming Prius, in scale with their figures no less.) I'd say based on the size and materials they'll be around that or more expensive (Chogokin in particular, Die-Cast Metal is NOT cheap.)

I would consider going for 9,999,999 to get the Tanooki statue but honestly I don't really wanna, even if that would net me a 100% complete game.

Some of those "Perfect Model" prototypes have been shown.





The Godzilla might not be part of that line, but there were no indicators saying otherwise so what the hell.

Oh, and D-Arts Megaman is scheduled for January, I think i'm just going to pick up that release as chances are its just going to have stickers over the japanese stuff like the MMX releases, my wallet is already going to be dead in december due to that Neuromancer Yoko being so [tornado fang]ing pricy.

RMZX is still walking. Its calm in the city, no traffic anymore since the remaining people here either don't drive or have alternate means of transportation.

Unsurprisingly, most of the economy in RPM has gone to hell, there aren't many people and there aren't many jobs, the money that is present was mainly in the hands of the talented, corrupt, and greedy. However since the population all but left, most of the rich included, everybody has their fair share of money, so everybody seems happy.

[You know, I thought we weren't going to call it Sparkvernia anymore.]

RMZX is sitting in his apartment, blindly surfing the web on his PC, the boredom he is experiencing would put any other person to sleep.

"Nothing to do, nothing I follow is updating. Guess its time to go outside, can't say I really want to though."

RMZX put on his familiar black jacket (Which has started to show signs of wear, mainly in the sleeves) and a new pair of shoes to replace his worn out boots. His shirt is the usual Black/Grey Horizontal Stripes.

He walked outside, the lighting in RPM has always confused RMZX. The sky is always starry and dark, yet its decently lit on the ground.

He decided to go for a walk, no destination in mind, just a walk.

Apparently they will make a Classic MM D-Arts figure.

Should have went for somebody who didn't just see a release in some form.
And by that I mean that Model Kit is perfectly fine.

I'd honestly love for Kotobukiya to continue making MM models.

Well, classic series anyway, that MMZero model is one of my least favorite figures out of the fact that it actually requires paint to look accurate (They painted faces and the Buttons on Roll's dress, why couldn't they paint the hands and chest?), the head comes off too easily, and the ponytail keeps falling out. I still want them to make Bass and Rush/Eddie/Beat at least.
