I used to think Pixlbit really needed a forum, but now I don't. I can go to any number of sites with forums, in fact I already do, but there aren't very many sites that support blogs or if they do, have very active bloggers. This is the only site where I mainly read othe people's long blogs and that's what I enjoy about it. Not many people have time to write long blogs or comments on boards, so having a seperate forum here would just divide the bloggers, and people would stop writing long interesting posts. Just my opinioon.
Stuff I Do

There were a lot of paragraphs where this line of text was, but you can get the gist of those in the first few comments. I've since deleted that part of this blog. Was just a thought about forums I had I've decided wasn't necessary. Oh well. I've decided to take advantage of my insomnia by getting some Mickey D's breakfast. Mmmm, sausage and egg biscuit.
Stuff
I haven't done a My Gaming Timeline or music blog in quite some time. Might have to remedy that soon.
For those of you that don't know, My Gaming Timeline is a series I started on 1up where I talk about my past experiences with video games, and try and go in order by system and handheld, and talk about what my life was like around the times in which I played these games.
I had done a blog on NES and Game Boy, and was doing blogs of different series on SNES (I'd have one blog to talk about the SNES Mega Man games I played, another about the games we owned, and that way split up the massive amount of games I played on the system, but still keep each blog within a certain theme), but stopped a while ago. I think I might do one or two on PC and Arcade next, cause those were both popular with me around the same time the SNES was.
Or maybe I could do one on previous console wars and where I stood in them. That's also been done, but I do have my own little personal twists.
Anyway, other than that, I've been focused on trying to make sure I can find an apartment and go back to school for a Master's degree, and in the meantime exercising and watching all the usual blip and Youtube suspects to maintain my sanity.
I've been re-watching Avatar: The Last Airbender while the Nostalgia Critic does his opinion vlogs on the series, but he's stopped recently to upload other things, mostly regarding his displeasure towards Man of Steel. I haven't seen it yet, and I think I'll like it, especially with my expectations lowered, but we'll see. The fact it apparently does that stupid Hunger Games shaky cam thing has me worried. I love shaky cam in things like Bourne Ultimatum, but directors have started doing that shit when people are talking. Enough!
Speaking of Hunger Games, I may try to combat insomnia by reading more of Mockingjay tonight. I don't know why I have such a hard time just focusing on a book lately, but I'm determined to finish the series.
Here's some music.
Yup, still way into Macklemore. This is his first release as far as I know. It has its ups and downs like any album, but it sounds a lot more "underground" than The Heist does, and I like that sound a lot, even if I think Heist is more consistent in quality. The Youtube video's description has the song times listed if you understandably don't have time to scrub through it all. Plan on picking this and The VS EP up soon as I can.
A couple good low key songs I've been playing on guitar lately; perfect for cloudy/rainy weather.
Well, back to Mockingjay.
