Living at home with folks is very depressing.
by Sixcorez on Sep.14, 2009, under Rants
Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful that I have folks that allow me to live at home. But sometimes, it’s hard living like this. I want to live on my own but it is at the moment it seems that might never happen. I am having a hard time finding a fucking job. Damn economy.
Anyways, I figured I’d type out my feelings about how I feel right now. First off, I got into yet another major arguement with my folks regarding my situation, actually my father. My mother said she would help me with my credit card payments (for which I am very fucking grateful to have a parent that is helping with my bills since I am jobless at the moment). My father thinks that whatever money I do seem to scrounge up should go towards all of the credit payment and that they should not be helping me at all. In some ways he is right and I have been doing either half payment or 75% payment towards the minimum payment. But since I don’t have that much coming in (roughly 30 bucks every third week or so) doing odd and end jobs for some dough it is rough trying to make that payment since I do have some minor expenses other than the credit card going out. But, when I was going to USC Aiken, I had to pull out some of that cash that was on the credit card (y’know the “non-interest” bullshit from credit cards and shit) to pay for one semester while I waited for my financial aid to go through, my mother promised that she would help in any way possible to pay the credit card off as much as she could. My father on the other hand, believes that I should eat the cost no matter what. It is a conflict of interest on both of my mother and father because of this and it is frustrating to me because it seems like everytime a credit card payment comes up, one of these arguements comes up and I end up feeling like shit regarding my current situation more so than when I woke up. Still looking for a damn job but still no luck with that. I guess I am going to have to try even more harder because once I get that bit of income coming in, I get that bit of more freedom of being a 24+ year old and living on his own to which I should be doing. I am willing to accept the downsides of living on my own but I know it will be worth it once I get my feet firmly planted in the ground financially or somewhat I should say since I already have debt from going to school. For now, I am just going to have to deal with my current situation and just put up with my father’s attitude for now.
Done ranting, call me ungrateful at your peril.

Is it so wrong to like the music I like?
by Sixcorez on Sep.10, 2009, under Music Related
I consider myself a metalhead (aka one who likes metal and related genres). But I am not exclusively devoted to the genre. I listen to a broad spectrum of music genres although I prefer metal as my default staple.
A list of the bands I listen to that I consider metal (listed by genre):
Death Metal;
Suffocation, Deicide, Entombed (Old School), Dismember, Cryptopsy (Old School Worm era), Decapitated (Sauron Era), Death, Atheist, Necrophobic, Immolation, Vital Remains, Bloodbath
Power Metal / Speed Metal / Traditional Doom Metal / Progressive Metal;
DragonForce, Iced Earth, Candlemass, Cathedral, Dream Theater, Pagan’s Mind, Solitude Aeternus, Evergrey, Into Eternity, Kamelot, Opeth
Thrash Metal;
Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeth, Warbringer, Testament, Exodus, Darkane
Funeral Doom Metal / Death-Doom Metal;
Skepticism, Tyranny, Disembowelment, Evoken, Pantheist
Nu Metal / Alternative Metal (Call me mallcore at your peril)
Allele, Switched, Korn, 3rd Strike, Adema, Sevendust, Stereomud, Crossfade, Breaking Benjamin, Bloodsimple, Celldweller, Disturbed, Dope (some of their songs, most sound like an exact replica of Marilyn Manson /puke), Deftones, Red
That is just a list of some of the bands that I consider Metal that I listen to (there are many more I couldn’t think off the top of my head. The problem here lies with the error that most metalheads (elitist fucks) make when attempting to judge what I listen to. I listed some obscure bands in that list along with some of the most popular nu metal/alternative metal bands that I listen to. Elitist fucks would say that I am not “metal enough” to listen to some of the bands I listen to and I should gtfo of the metal scene. I just feel sorry for them because they are missing out on some good music that is out there if they open their minds a bit more and learn there is good music out there regardless of what they might believe.
I just ask that if you somehow read this and are currently closed minded, just open your mind and maybe look at some of the bands I listed here, and maybe get out of that rut that you call being exclusive.

You must think that after my first post, that I am a complete tool who bitches about nonsense.
by Sixcorez on Jul.31, 2009, under Uncategorized
Well, you could be right in that sense but I was still irritated from that whole experience last night so I had to vent. Anyways, if I haven’t scared you off and you decided to stay after reading that rant then I congratulate you.
I am a simple man who still lives at home with his folks (24 years old and still stuck at home with my parents, yeah I am that stereotype basement type fellow that you make fun of and such. Good news is that I will be moving out in the next six months or so once I get my savings saved to the proper amount).
Anyways, this blog will be about me and my experiences in life and my journeys on the Internet because only God knows that what is out there especially on the Internet. My previous post was regarding assholes who play video games just for the sole purpose of greifing other players and robbing them of their fun. Fuck them, fuck greifers and their attitudes. Good news is that you will never see their asses on any of my clan’s servers because when I ban one of them, I ban everyone in their friends list. True story.
I know there are those who will say “QQ” and the like but this is how I roll. Normally I can expect assholes on games such as Counter-Strike, TFC and Team Fortress 2 but on games like that, you expect it and you can ignore it. Games like Left 4 Dead, you cannot because it is a team based game with 4 or 8 players to a game. This must be heaven for asshole gamers because most games I either host or join, there is someone being an asshole or griefing. Take for instance, one of my “friends” in my friends list. Last night, I counted him changing his Steam community name at least 3 or so times. All times, a name that was insulting to the other team. That irritated me, even though he will say “y so srs” and shit. One thing that I try to maintain when i play online is that I try to be a notch above those assholes. Yes, I fire back with shit talk (who doesn’t) but when it gets disruptive, if it is on one of our servers, they either get an sm_silence or sm_kick from me instead of dealing with it further. Anyways, enough of explaining myself to you since you probably couldn’t care more about why I am the way I am.

Irritation with gamers…
by Sixcorez on Jul.31, 2009, under Rants
I fear that as a first post on my new blog will be regarding asshole gamers.
The reason why I feel that I need to vent and rant about this is due to the fact that they know no bounds of when to clearly shut the fuck up and play the fucking game. For instance; last night, around 10-11pm, I host a lobby in the game, Left 4 Dead and have it point to our clan’s server (Dragon Kin Guild) and as the lobby was slowly filling up, we had 2 players who were clearly friends join. Once the lobby was full, I started the search for our server and the lobby connected with no issues. We started off as the Survivors while the 2 friends were on the Infected side. The campaign we were on was Death Toll and that first level is a doozy in regards to actually making it to the safe room. Well, we get to the tunnel and in the hallway area next to the open area in the tunnel, one of us gets kicked because Steam failed for them. Well, one of the friends on the other team makes a comment regarding something about a friendly clan… I think nothing of it and respond saying we are. Well, since one of us had dropped and the character he was on was not moving and was also black and white (basically if they get incapped that time they are killed instead of incapacitated.)
Well, after he drops, the bot takes over and one of us accidentally shoots him and since he was at 1 hp, the bot dies. Well, after that, we got raped by the rest of the Infected and our round as the Infected starts. It is pretty uneventful, maybe a few good damage pounces here and there (since our server runs a plugin that allows those who are snared by any special infected, they can talk to whoever they are snared by and vice versa while still being able to talk with thier teams). Well, after the end of that round (the former infected team makes it to the end), one of the friends just outright says that DKG sucks and that we should just stop playing and some sort of shit that I didn’t pay any particular attention to. Well, as the match continues, one of the friends continues to insult DKG to the point of almost sounding stupid. Well, I fire back by saying why are you taking this game seriously and he just would not stop claiming how victorious he was because he thought we were pub stompers and thought his side was performing a successful pub stomp. Well, this continues up til the end of the match with the infected side winning by a large spread. Our side doesn’t particularly care for the fact that we lost, we cared more about the fact that this particular person cared about the fact the he though he won the internet by the way he was sounding.
Well, we challenge them to a rematch with CEVO configs enabled to level the playing field a bit for both sides. Well, the first round on our side, we get towards the end and the infected side gets a tank. The tank comes up and knocks me and another out of the window (we are on Dead Air now) and that pretty much ends our round as the survivors. Now they get survivors and they get to the end but, we perform a coordinated attack at the end that pretty much kills all of them at the safe room (it involved the tank making it into the safe room at the end). The total score right now is 70-100 so that means we get infected first. Anyways, when we got to the third map, they just started railing us with smack by saying how much we suck and whatnot and I start firing back by questioning still why they think that they are winning somehow because they think they own and are the best players ever.
This is what gets me? Why do they insist on continuing to smack talk us when they are winning? Why do they insist on rubbing it in our noses? Did they really think that we were really doing a pub stomp? DKG doesn’t pub stomp, we like to play games like the rest of the players out there. What infuriates me is that they continued to rub it in (thinking that we would rage quit but DKG never fucking ragequits). Now here comes the reason why I explained so much about how I feel about these 2 friends who thought they won the internetz because they got us.
Both of you fuckers need to grow up and get a fucking job you fucking French Canadian motherfuckers (yes I know where the fuck you connected from). You think you are so fucking bad ass that you ruined our fucking fun by having a very fucking bad fucking case of fucking mouth diarrhea. I swear to god you motherfuckers ain’t got nothing up against some of the teams we have went against. At least most of those teams have the respect and dignity towards other clans (such as us) to not rub it in our faces when your side is winning. PhAIM and Angry Frenchman, you can go fuck yourselves and take your fucking French attitudes and ways and go fuck off you motherfuckers.
Okay, now that we have also established that this isn’t a G rated blog as well with that particular vent session up there. It is just how I felt about those to players who think that they are all that.
DKG plays for fun, not for scores and shit. We have never openly competed, we also do not take an elitist attitude towards new players. They get a chance as well, unlike some of those motherfuckers in the Left 4 Dead community who call a vote to kick someone who is new.
Anyways, enough of the ranting…

P.S I hate those who are French who think that they are too damn good for anyone else. Also, fuck your statistics regarding how much the US puts out every fucking year in polution. Believe me, it’s old fucking news you fucking idiots.
