Nearing year end

We're coming close to the end of the year. Only a few more weeks left. I'm not one for Christmas, I suppose, but then it's possible that's all because I live in the desert. Maybe snow would get me in the mood, rather than 60 degree weather.
It's about the time where TV shows and magazines put up their top tens of the year, so I suppose I'll do something of the sort, to help nonexistant readers understand me. I suppose I'll start with my top five of video games for the year, since they're the easiest to pay attention to with release dates and such. Keep in mind I don't have all of the consoles, so I can't speak on all video games. Plus, this is my opinion.

At five, Pikmin 3. I've been waiting years for it. As a little kid, Pikmin was one of my favorite games, so it's only natural. Plus, I got to play it whenever I wanted by telling my mom it helped me learn fractions, even though it taught me about as much as fraction frogs did.
At four, I have Bioshock Infinite. A good bit overhyped with the whole 'best shooter evar' thing, and the gameplay wasn't anything to get TOO excited about, but it was really pretty good.
At three, Batman Arkham Origins. I loved the other games in the batman series, so it was an easy choice.
At two, The Last of Us. Emotional, great gameplay (except for the computer controlled Ellie...), and a great game overall.
At one, GTA V. I love sandbox games, as well as robbing banks, so it was a clear choice I suppose.

People say every year that 'this is the new bestest year for video games'. If video games aren't improving every year, that's a problem. They're still a developing medium, so you should naturally expect better ones yearly, besides the brief flashes of brilliance.

Thought & Quote of the Day

Kids these days are pampered little whiners, spoiled brats with entitlement mentality. You can't go onto Youtube or Twitter without seeing some kid bitching about how their parents suck, or 'Bob iz meen I dun lick his'. They don't know the first thing about how much life sucks - but that doesn't stop them.

It's evident in every area, but the worst is how they act when going into work. They expect the corner office within a month of working there, $50 an hour, and a month of vacation days. It just isn't viable. And then they go protest at a 99% rally because the 1% isn't giving them all everything they want. Here's news for you - YOU are in the top 1%. Let's talk about this mathematically: the US makes up about 4% of the world's population, and we're one of the most prosperous nations. Because of this, almost everyone in the US is in the top 90% of the world. 90% of the world doesn't have a cell phone, internet and a computer to access it with, or a house with air conditioning. Give your Iphone away and we'll talk about how neglected you are. You aren't entitled to a cellphone.

Seriously - now we have burger flippers at McDonald's who want $15 to take orders with a shitty attitude. Here's news for you: flipping burgers is supposed to be a crappy starting level job that you moved out of once you were no longer a teen. You aren't supposed to raise a family on a McDonald's salary! Burgers shouldn't be $10 to pay for your B.S. attitude problems.

Quote of the day:

The optimist sees a light at the end of the tunnel,

the realist sees a train entering the tunnel,

the pessimist sees a train speeding at him, hell for leather,

and the machinist sees three idiots sitting on the rail track.

"The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; the pessimist fears this is true."

— James Branch Cabell, The Silver Stallion.

For those wondering, I'm the pessimist.

Don't get the wrong idea. This isn't just ignorant crap I'm going to be spouting. This is going to be deep, psychological stuff. And you're getting a front row seat to my ideas. I ponder weird things that others don't care about, and you might very well not care yourself. In fact, I doubt anyone will.
I've been around the internet's block a few times. I've seen the cancer, the neckbeards, the idiots, the memes. I haven't seen many decent, regular people, but there are a few. I know things. But just because the name of my blog is "Thoughts of an Internet God" doesn't mean I'm going to be focusing on that. I'll be getting into deep questions, inspecting what makes things popular. Don't expect structured stupidity; expect chaotic genius. Just because my name's Brosus doesn't mean I'm a surfer dude infatuated with stupidity. So stick around. You might learn something.
