Another Month from Hell

I'm working on two new videos that are a continuation of the Yu-Gi-Oh! D&D video I out together years ago when I had even less of an idea of what I was doing. I'm not sure when they'll be done. It's been a busy month, and it's going to be a busy summer. This past week has been full of car trouble and other calamities, and there needs to be a lot of rescheduling. Hopefully by September things will have gotten better and fallen into place.

More Oreo flavors came out - or you could just order them online like Brad does since stores are unreliable (unless you're like Brad and always end up tempting fate). The waffles and syrup would be good, but I don't think I should order them online because they'd probably just be crumbs and broken pieces by the time they get to me. Although, it would be nice since we didn't get coconut in our area, and my fiance would like that. What we got, at a Walgreen's no less, is a couple of exclusive Pringles flavors. No, not hot dog this time. Jamaican Jerk and Cheddar BBQ. Needless to say, the latter was the best for eating wholesale. However, I liked the jerk chicken and jerk tofu at the college I went to, and while these chips are spicy and prevent me from eating too many at a time, the flavor is excellent. If I knew how to cook tofu, I'd make that to go with it (except tofu - or at least tofu products - is expensive).

Satellamon's arc didn't last long, and now there's a human antagonist. There are more humans involved at L-Corp who take orders from the rogue AI Leviathan. And I still don't know what Yuujin's deal is.

It's Been A Long Month

Finally done with Persona 5 and can focus on other things. I still like 4 better, though. 5 was kind of predictable and included elements I didn't like, such as the overuse of flashbacks for much of the game (for starters). I know it's the theme of this one, but too many people want to sue for various things. And they say America is bad with that. Although it wasn't for very long, I couldn't get used to Lavenza. Caroline and Justine had more personality (although Justine is more like Lavenza). Caroline kicking you through the door to the Velvet Room is never not funny.

I like this season of MLP so far. The episode where Twilight has to watch Flurry felt like an episode of Fairly OddParents where Timmy would have to watch Poof, especially since Tara Strong voices both of them and the babies. Shining Armor and Cadance are like Cosmo and Wanda too. The comics, however, left much to be desired. The Celestia/Luna comic that was delayed a month was not worth the wait for me. It was lacking in cohesion and logic. What could've been a simple tale about them entering the Sisterhoof Social became a botched mess, though I'm probably the only one that thinks so. The end of Tales of Zestiria the X was also delayed a month. Was it worth the wait? Well, that depends on if you liked the new direction it was going in. I really can't recognize it anymore, so I couldn't really appreciate what they were doing with it. And it's still going to be continued.

There were two new Lay's flavors lately, but I passed them both up. I've just been so busy with the move and all that I've been spending money on more important things. They were beers and brats, and southwest sauce. Neither one really appealed to me, but I could've bitten the bullet if I wanted to. Mountain Dew also combined Code Red, White Out, and Voltage into a purple drink. I don't think I want to try that either, though I might give in at some point.
