Guns and Hoes

Today was a good day, I didn't have to use my A. K. A.

Turns out I'm incredibly great at gun games, specifically

Duck Hunt

Hogan's Alley

and Medal of Honor Allied Assault

Who knew?! Not me, I almost never play video games and even less play killing games. It's unreal. In two player on the LAN or single, I do just fine and hold my own. I don't know what's going on. I don't usually play video games, and I don't use guns all that often, which all my roommates do frequently, but still I'm good. NICE.

Duck Hunt brings back so many memories. It's actually the very first game I played when we got a Nintendo. I remember I was so excited when I finally hit one and it fell to the ground dead and bloodie, followed by the dog picking it up with that joyous music...I love that. I hate it when that flea infested mutt squirts up and giggles at your defeat...cake eater. So when I finally hit that illustrious mallard at age 8 I threw my hands in the air as champion and tore then entire counsol right out of the tv. My Dad turned pail with fright. Fear not, all was well and I continued to play Duck Hunt until round 99 one night with a good friend. I learned tonight that Duck Hunt is an endless game with no victory in sight. I also learned that in the arcade version you could shoot the dog in the bonus round but that is impossible in the home version, damn he has it coming!

You should come to some LAN parties. I'll let you know next time there is one. Although your face will have been killed by then.

the chef at work has nicknamed me
"AK" because he thinks i'm likely to go on a killing spree....he says it's always the quiet ones.
