Reflections From a Murky Pond

Why did we have and have to suffer through #Gamergate? Or rather, why did it blow up into some strange, malformed beast?

Simply put, it was because the womyn who consider themselves Feminists did what they always do. They saw things and heard things as they always do, through the filters of their twisted agenda. They took reality and the normal, if vile and obnoxious, behavior of gamers towards each other as personal and/or gender attacks.

Really! In my rarely humble opinion, the three panel cartoon depicted above sums it up quite well.

Where Are The Jigglypuffs?

Hmmm…Is Pokemon Go bugged? Why can she not find those two jigglypuffs when the rest of us can?

Say Grace And Roll For Initiative

OK, OK! I know the non-gamers out there won’t get this and, Hellfire, even the younger gamers may not since roleplaying games have changed a lot since the old Dungeons & Dragons days. Still, for you old-timers out there, enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday and the laugh.

Self inspection is for most people very difficult, especially when such musing and pondering centers on one’s place in the grand scheme of life.

Oh My God! I’m An NPC!

And yes! We are most of us merely NPCs, bit characters in someone else’s story, forever doomed to play out our small parts and be forgotten, having done little at all which will be remembered by history. But this would be a harsh realization and most people won’t ever make it and will vociferously reject it if it is pointed out to them.

A short pictorial history lesson…

Winston Churchill knew what Adolf Hitler either never learned or forgot, scissors beats paper every single time.
