i was playing mwll until my thumb got really ****ing sore. i couldnt reach the upper 3 hat switches on my ch fighterstick with my thumb without intense pain. most of the controls are not things you use all the time, weapon grouping, buy/sell commands, nightvision toggle, **** like that. except for the frequenly used zoom controls. i moved this control over to the throttle. but still with throbbing sensation in my thumb i just decided to quit playing. it was sad cause i was really racking up the cbills. my desk is a little high and my chair is a little low and the joystick should probibly be placed a little bit lower than it is. but meh.

I still don't get the point of a site like OverClocked ReMix existing on the Internet.

...why?

Installed a program I probably shouldn't have. Installation screen had a screen for optional installation of Yahoo Toolbar. Ahh, I've seen this before. No, I don't want a ****ing Yahoo Toolbar.

* watsisname unchecks both checkboxes for Yahoo and proceeds with installation. It installs itself anyway.

**** you, Yahoo Toolbar!

* watsisname tries to uninstall from FF's Tools > Add-ons menu. It's not listed.

**** you!

* watsisname tries to uninstall from Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs. It's not listed.

**** YOU!

* watsisname checks every menu in the toolbar to see if there's an uninstallation option. There is none.

* watsisname goes into program files and manually deletes the offending ****pile

Because I don't really understand this statement or how it is accomplished:

Maybe I'm just that kind of person who prefers original game music to rearrangements.

You have never heard of bands paying tribute to their idols by doing cover versions of the idol's songs? Living up to your title again, are you.

Musicians have been doing covers, arrangements and tributes since the classical era, if not before.

Dekker, who if I recall correctly is a Royal Sapper Engineer trained in ordnance disposal, volunteered to go to the land of deadly explosive bombs he'll have to clean up because a woman fell in love with him?

Dekker, man up and just tell her to go to hell. A year cleaning up old Soviet minefields that might blow up and take your dick off (and a leg or two as well) is not a valid escape plan for this situation.

As The E and Battman alluded, the artists who create works for the site do so as a form of tribute to the originals, and as a way of encouraging people to check out game music as a whole. They certainly don't claim that their reinterpretations are superior to the originals, but there's something to be said about finagling songs into completely-different genres, especially when you're talking about the blips and bloops of 8-bit tracks. There's a lot of really excellent stuff on the site (as well as some meh, but hey, law of averages), so I highly encourage taking a look around and seeing if anything catches your fancy.

Eventful day
Meal at restaurant, Ikea shelving unit built, cake eaten, Southern Comfort bought, rootbeer float had, pork and mango salsa devoured, Hobo with a Shotgun watched, and now I get audited by mods

So awesome
