Current Status: Awesome

It's one-thirty in the morning and I have absolutely no idea what to write about tonight, so let's get a little bit self-indulgent, shall we?

Today, I learned that if you have a job that doesn't really require you to do much--say, the type of job where you can generally stand around and read comics for eight hours in between scribbling customer quirks into your Moleskine notebook so you can write about them on the internet later--having a PSP will prevent you from doing anything that remotely resembles work. Here's a true story of how I'm the worst employee ever:

Tonight, just before closing when only the Gaming crowd was hanging out, this bunch of guys who I know casually were checking out the figures in the Warhammer case. I'd just finished losing a game of Kung Fu Fighting to Ben (bastard utilized his unstoppable Dragon Sword style) and gone back to playing Twisted Metal when I heard one of them say: "I totally need to build a Space Marine army."

That's when I looked up from my video game and shouted in my best hair-metal-by-way-of-Ben-Folds voice "SPACE MARINES ARE FOR LOSERS!"

I also learned that if you want to put a gigabyte of pornography on your PSP, you should be prepared to shell out a hundred and forty bucks for a memory card. As a corollary to this nugget of truth, I learned that yes, I'm prepared to do just that.

This is what is referred to as "a cry for help." I'll keep you posted.

But the learning didn't stop there, friends. I also learned that Bryan Lee O'Malley's Scott Pilgrim is awesome, that if I ever have twins, I'm naming them Gideon Stargrave and Acheron Hades, regardless of gender.

Also, thanks to Brandon, I now know that I'm not the only person who thinks Batman should fight Mike Jones.
