Shaking the snaking.
As a gamer, I keep a watchful eye over the ever expanding game industry and never seem to be at a loss for opinions on the matter. With the advent of Mario Kart Wii, the latest installment of the Mario Kart series, I’m excited to burn rubber and take names. But what’s been taking residence of my mind is the latest Mario Kart news from popular gaming blog, Kotaku, reporting that a technique known as snaking will not be present in Mario Kart Wii; news received by both thunderous applause and snide remarks of cynicism.
I’m “just not that into” bullshit.
One day (what seemed like years ago and probably was), I was visiting Ms. Lindsay Lee at her Vista del Campo residence. In her room, a most peculiar book caught my eye: “He’s Just Not That into You: The No-Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys,” written by a man, Greg Behrendt, and a woman, Liz Tuccillo. (I’m assuming more Greg than Liz). I flipped through, read a couple pages, and then promptly threw it against the wall and then into the wastebasket. (Then Lindsay came back from the bathroom, so I quickly placed the book back on her desk before she noticed any damages.) Simply put, it is a book with dating advice for women, conveying the simple message of “Hey, sometimes the guy just isn’t very much into you ladies.” I didn’t like what I had read, to say the least.
