Was it really iOS that did him in?

I also notice he doesn't really talk to me on twitter anymore. I've got a feeling I did something, and he's raw about it. I'm not sure what, but I'm sure it is warranted. Hopefully we can continue to be friends. We have been for quite a number of years and it'd be a shame to lose it over some stupid iOS argument.

Probably taking his silent seasonal break from the interwebs, unlike all you drama queens. It could have something to do with how the consoles' launch is turning everyone into a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow.

All I need to know is that he's healthy and enjoying his life slightly more without the internet.

I'd pay to see the 8 hours of an Andy/Eel reality tv show... I say 8 hours, because that's how long I give Eel before he kills the kid and disposes of the body.

Absence from videogame forums on the internet is probably a key indicator of having a life, even if they're the special fellow-mocking homo-undertone variety

he's probably in some fresh air, feeling the wind flow between his two fist thigh gap, hoping you can all one day join him in the sun

The console war shit is par for the course- most of the time, people are just content (and able, I should qualify) to joke around about shit, but there's a certain type of poster (your lagers, your methodissesesseses) who take any opportunity to gleefully get down and roll around in the shit that they can.  I tend not to click on those threads because of that.

In a way I appreciate the console madness, because I really just don't care at all anymore so I can just shit back and marvel at the lower forms of human. The concept of needing a console is probably gonna die out anyway.

Nah, I slipped away into the night because I knew I'd still have stints of activity here. I'm never gonna fit in here over a period of time as my interests doesn't align with the bore so I wont stay for 2 years again, but i can still come and talk shit at least.
