I like to watch some cartoons in my free time. But the main thing I like is to find inconsistencies. These can range from impractical to moronic. In most cases I call this the Spongebob syndrome (you'll find out why in reason 2).
1. Convenient news flashes: I don't hate them they just TOO convenient. But at least they move the plot along.
2. Here it is... the Spongebob syndrome: Spongebob has a LOT of inconsistencies, not all of which are fully noticeable. The first is example is of a well known small period of time in an episode in which Spongebob drank a glass of water... but of course since he's underwater he just holds the glass and gulps and no fluid is seen in the glass, leaving the glass, or entering his mouth. The second is where a fish-lady in the background goes outside with fresh washed laundry (how do you wash laundry underwater? or use electricity?) then hangs them out to dry. There are many more but I'd like to move on to something else.
3. Traps: In most cartoons where someone gets trapped in a cage, cell, or net of some sort it seems that it is either really terribly made, or the bars are too big for the character. Some cartoon creators have started to realize this and make small jokes about it in their cartoons.
4. Generic products: Yeah they want to censor out brands so that they aren't showing choice of one over another, but they just put SODA or COLA on the side. I'd like to for once see something witty.
5. Impenetrable characters: Sure they might get bruised or scraped, or in rare cases be put in full body casts, but nothing seems to phase them for too long. Next frame, or episode, they're fine. Why not show them in a cast? or at least bandaged a little longer?
Well that's all for this week, stick around for more.

My love for Modern Warfare 3 and dislike of the people who play it.
I love Call of Duty in general but Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 is one of my all time favorites. They give you plenty of new items and plenty of new ways to score kills. With this comes new challenges and new ways to make people (in this case me) mad. So here is a list of the top things that really bust your buffers, get on your nerves, and overall make you wanna put down the controller and go see a psychiatrist.
Note: I do no mind camping and in fact use it as a tactic. If you want to hear a rant about camping in fps games go somewhere else *points toward door*.
1. The first thing that I really do hate is being shot/knifed in the back. This is one you'll hear a lot and it's mainly because there's nothing you can do about it. You're hiding and/or trying to be sneaky when BOOM someone comes up behind you and you're dead. I really am starting to think this is unavoidable though.
2. Smaws, grenade launchers, and rpgs. I love the fact they give you a wide choice of anti-vehicle weaponry but when they start being turned on players I start to feel like it's a bit overkill. I have been shot with rocket launchers in game many times and not every shot is a kill. But the ones that are really get on your nerves. Especially considering they probably could use a gun to kill you instead.
3. My own teammates. They can be really helpful, or right down rude, but either way they can be just plain nuisances. They will knife you, shoot you, steal your kills or make it so you can't move. But either way its better to have them than not.
4. Tag-teaming. Its all well and fine when you are trying to take out a building full of people but when there's only one person in the area it gives the advantage to the two or three people who just happen to be in the same spot at the same time. (Unless you have a rocket launcher).
5. The guy standing in the middle of the field. I use tactics in game that the military uses today 90% of the time. That being said there's always one guy better than me. That guy could be stealthier and just overall good. But sometimes there are just a few guys who are nuts. I have more than once sat in a building for three minutes waiting for someone to walk by, or multiple buildings, and some guy across the map standing in the wide open somehow shoots a dark figure in a dark building using only iron sights.
6. Shooting somebody with half of a magazine of ammunition and not killing them. This happens a lot. Whether it's a straight on duel or just plain shooting someone I still can't comprehend how my bigger more powerful gun didn't obliterate them.
7. Modded controllers. I'm not fully against them and think owning one would be pretty neat. But I don't especially like being shown up by the guy who's sniper/shotgun is a machine gun.
8. Modders. I would love to learn how to mod for the sake of being able to do things like drive a tank in single player or to show off to my friends in a private game. But using mods online is in my opinion in terrible taste. Why be invincible with no limit to your ammo? That's OK I guess but half of the fun of playing is getting killed.
9. Last but not least, people who jump, lie flat on their stomachs, or both. If you are in game and you get shot at your immediate reaction should be to shoot back. The one thing I hate more than anything is when I start shooting someone and they make it excessively hard to shoot them by jumping up in the air like a little pixie or lie down and play dead. If you're still shooting then we know you're not dead.
