Doing Christmas

[sabotabby]

Post-Christmas dinner at the family's:

"Fuck these missions. I'm gonna go kill some cops."
-- Me, playing Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

"You seem to have some aggression issues."
-- My mum.

(I loathe the 2-3 months of being bombarded by the capitalist corruption of someone else's religion. Christmas Eve with the goy-family is pretty nifty.)

Happy time off, everyone!

yay, videogames!

[sabotabby]

Violent, politically incorrect videogames, no less. It's the only time of year I get to play them.

There was another game where you play Rambo-esque American soldiers with mullets and you kill Iraqis and alien-Iraqis. (?!) It was reminiscent of CNN's news coverage.

12/22/04 Rape Grandma

Do your best to violate your grandma without being caught or killed. Note: This iStory contains explicit content

uhhh...though there is that 'intifadah' video game where a little boy throws rocks at IDF tanks, and wins!

That game seems like a PC game. :( As in "shit-ass-computer", not as in "politically correct." I am a Mac girl.

Where do I get my hands on this Intifada game?

It's back in T.O. as a weblink on my hard drive somewheres, I left my 'puter off there, hence I can't remote access it at the moment.

In other news,

Today was the BEST chrismahanukwanzikah EV-ER!

I ate Pizza! I chocolated well. I have coffee.

December 25th in Silicon Valley ain't half bad.



or as my cousin's may graphic design it: Silicon G-D.

This post makes no sense whatsoever.

But then again, I'm an Aries.

But you don't have a white Christmas OMG!

Oh, what I would give to not be under a foot or so of snow right now. (Although on the plus side: tobogganing!)

It's December....So HiMY goes down to the beach...

I heard Corpus Christi, down here in Texas, had it's first white Christmas in one hundred years.

The first day of winter in San Antonio, there was a bikini-clad woman baking herself by the pool at my apartment complex.

I heard that in that game when you pick up a prostitute, if you decide you want a refund, you just run her over! that's a good message for the young ones. my sister got that for her father, so they'll be running over prostitutes together.

[sabotabby]

I wasn't interested in picking up or killing prostitutes (although they're fairly shrill and irritating in the game). I mean, the whole thing is of questionable social value, but it's very cathartic. A few years ago, I heard a rumour that they wanted to have it in prisons to reduce rioting.

When you are in a mood for a less violent video diversion:

You absolutely must play this with sound because the music is perfect. The only slightly fucked up part is that the game screen may be taller than your actual screen, so you may have to adjust something to see all the tiers. I just scrolled until I saw half of the top and bottom tiers.

[sabotabby]

The Herding Cats game! I've played it before and it's brilliant.

(My screen is obnoxiously large, so no problems there.)

Wait, you have goy family? Do tell!

I had Christmas the last few years at the ex's house. That was lame, esp because a) they went super all out (it's what you do when you're a millionaire, I suppose) b) everyone there but the ex and her mom was Jewish. It was super awkward and I'm glad I'll never have to go through that again, knock on virtual wood.

[sabotabby]

The story of my goy family is that when I was about 16 or 17 years old, my friend Alex (a Catholic goy) and I were getting a bit wasted in the stairwell of our high school and started trading stories about our families. Turned out we both had divorced parents. The thought fleetingly occurred to us: "hey, wouldn't it be funny if we fixed up my mom with your dad...?" "Hahahaha."

Several years later our parents took this whole thing slightly more seriously and went and got married. (If you're curious, the priest is an anarchist Wobbly from the pre-Nicean Catholic Church. So now I have this whole Catholic step-family in addition to my Jewish family. Christmas and Chanukkah yay!

We have GTA Miami Vice, or something like that. I will never get my innocence back.
