People-gamers, this is severe.

Why’s it so outrageous to find a place that sells games at a fixed price, and won’t try to rip you off? Do the dim-witted Indian clerks assume I know jack about games just because I have two X chromosomes; they consequently try to hike up their prices when I try to buy something? The fact that I glare at them and go, “Min 9ijjik?” if it really irks me doesn’t help. I want to buy my freaking games without needing to see them trying to see how far they can go with their absurb prices. Yeah, Ri7ab. I mind going to Ri7ab now purely based on how it becomes more of a task I’d be begrudgingly accomplish purely because I want to plant myself on my couch and enjoy my PS3. But that’s the reason I haven’t been to Ri7ab in months now.

The Virgin Megastore? Their laughable stocks (slow at that, a game meant to be released at a certain date for example, takes a month—if they’re quick, to land on their shelves.) Nevermind that their staff is full of a bunch of liars who’ll tell you that the last copy was sold yesterday-and when you tell them you were there yesterday and was told that the game wasn’t in stock-because you wanted the freaking game that much, they’ll go, “Oh, well, you know how I my collegue next to me said we ordred 150 units-I’m telling you we ordered 2,000. Yeah, that’s right, fight the urge to kick my shins. Yeah, I’m an underachieving loser.”

And people actually wonder why Virgin’s in the proverbial toilet, repeatedly attempting to flush itself into the cesspool it’s increasingly proving to be a worthy candidate of existing in… Whoever’s in charge of that place needs to reconsider the idiots they hire; if your suppliers are that bad, just your suppliers, ironically, consider new ones or working on a more credible front. Asinine, red-vested, clowns.

We need a place, preferrably in Salmiya, that specializes in anything game-related only. You have any idea how easy it would be to net a huge customer base just by having an efficient place where games, accessories, consoles, and the likes are readily available? To be quite honest, upon graduation and landing a job for about five years or so, I plan on making just that.

Play-Asia.com seems to be irritatingly slow these days, even if DHL or FedEx is used-I wonder, in that case, did Kuwaiti customs hire a bunch of thieves to work in their ranks?

For starters, he makes it a point to go out of his way to misinterpret sarcasm, even though he’s allegedly a journalist…

Then he demands sources for statements like, “the driving situation in Kuwait is bad. People are crazy!” to be founded, because apparently the idea of exaggeration seems to be something he can’t quite wrap his mind about.

Also, folks, for the perfect record by which he operates, personal experience is certainly not enough substance to write an opinion piece, according to him. I’m guessing his definition of “opinion,” is “what sources say, even if you are talking about something that actually happened to you. If no one was there to document it, it didn’t happen.” Open-mindedness like that is something I should strive for!

Shame on me! That’s not to say I’m the only person who thinks he’s sort of pitiful, of course.

The sad thing is, he’s biased too; for example, he reads a sentence up to a comma, and stops to say that it’s missing something-nevermind that the words after the comma actually provide enough logical backing to make sense. He seems to go out of his way to find faults in statements he so obviously doesn’t take the time to actually read or listen through.

…And yet, he’s supposed to be teaching us. Nevermind that he gets a nice, fat cheque at the end of each month, his conscience doesn’t seem to mind that he obviously doesn’t even qualify to do what he does-call me outrageous, but the most essential element needed in anyone how wants to teach is actually being able to listen. You know, so we the idiots, lost without his words of wisdom, can actually get our money’s worth.

Oh, and he seems to get a kick out of bickering like some grumpy old woman. I did not say that he looks like one too.

I’m starting to remember why I always opted to go to the library instead of hang out with people in school…

It’s astounding, the degree of ridiculous sales of presumed standards I assumed people I once appreciated have. Then again, I assumed; and those who sell themselves cheap aren’t worth the effort.

…Those bought and sold with mere words leave me indifferent, more or less.

Taylor Swift’s ‘Love Story,’ is a sappy, fun song.

Add me again on PSN, there are no requests in my inbox-thing.

Also, PES2009 is cool… Except I get too many red cards. :(

Oh yeah, something juicy was here.

Check back, apparently we’re giving her another week.
