I WANT TO LIVE IN IT

So somewhere in Tennessee (actually, it's here) there's a treehouse bigger than the block your house is on. And I will be moving my stuff into it shortly.

That shot is just a teaser. Stare with your mouth open at a bunch more pics in this extremely badly-translated article at something called ZuZu Top.

Oh, and here's an SI.com article called "Vince Young will start for Titans." My only question is, what the fuck were you waiting for? Were they considering setting an NFL record for stupidity? Maybe try to follow up a 13-3 season with a 3-13 season? I mean, there's nothing wrong with being symmetrical, but at some point you have to realize you have OCD. And you're also crazy.

Seriously, it took losing 59 to zero to get Jeff Fisher to try something different. Being oh-fer five games into the season wasn't enough. Bah, whatever. I just hope they don't fire the guy. He's been so good for so long that he's earned a pass on a terrible season or two.

The robot invasion has begun.

It's official. They have infiltrated our society. There's no other way to describe this video.

That kid clearly has tiny robot brains individually operating his hands. The wild, random head thrashing is his primary robot brain glitching out as the compute cycles that should be dedicated to his human mimicry programs are monopolized by the hand-brain music software.

Think I'm crazy? Maybe you're one of them.

Big Lots FTW (again).

Tonight I picked up yet another great game at an absurd price at Big Lots. I found Mirror's Edge for $6. You read that right. I never actively looked for this game at retail, which may explain why I've never seen it anywhere. In any case, I couldn't run it when it came out, but now that I have a new video card I've been waiting for an online sale somewhere. Not anymore.

I'll post my thoughts on the game soon. Meanwhile, let's review what Big Lots has delivered:

• Darwinia (very rare at retail)
• Psychonauts (ditto, and obscenely good)
• Driver: Parallel Lines (impulse buy at $4, very fun)
• Just Cause (underrated)
• Enemy Territory: Quake Wars ($6 or $40 online? Hmm)
• You Are EMPTY (mindless fun, emphasis on "mindless" and "fun")
• Thief: The Dark Project (very lucky find)
• The Lord of the Rings Online (in case I want to play it someday)
• Prey (already had it on Steam, but now I don't need Steam or a disc)
• Mirror's Edge

Keep in mind, all of these games cost either $4 or $6. That's ten solid titles for less than the price of a single current-gen console game. And I'm a collector; I love having the box art, manual, etc. Digital distribution is definitely a good thing, but given the choice, I'll always take a retail package.

That isn't counting two games I grabbed for Jenny on the off chance that she might like them: Viva Pinata and NeoPets Puzzle Adventure, which I'll surprise her with when she gets home from work in ten minutes. She toyed around with Viva for a while, but didn't really get into it. Which is fine for four bucks. I think she'll like the NeoPets title, and if not, Haley might want to play it. They're into NeoPets, because they're apparently ten years old. But I'm not judging.

By the way, Haley's new blog, For the love of God... and anime, is up now, and shows off her phenomenal wallpapers. Go grab some of them now, you will definitely be impressed.
