Nintendo’s Wii U Will Have Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and YouTube

Nintendo just announced at E3 that the Wii U would have Hulu, Amazon, Netflix, and YouTube as content partners. It has a long way to go to catch up to the Xbox 360 as a content hub, but that's a pretty nice start.

A Day in the Life of Jason Part 2

May 24 12:00 am Movie time, or really, TV time. Watched 2 episodes of Misfits with Chelsea because Misfits is awesome. 1:00 am downloaded the shit out of the 1998 Miniseries Merlin, hoorah! 2:00 am MOAR Misfits! 3:00 am Bed time. Tired Jason is tired. Tired Chelsea is MORE tired. 8:20 am Terrible things have happened. Chelsea actually woke me up because I was making weird whimpering and frightened noises. I was actually having a crazy intense nightmare. I don't know if I always vocalize when I'm asleep and scared, but this was a first to have someone wake me up because I was having a nightmare. The dream was VERY vivid and I remember it perfectly. Skip this part if you don't want this haunting you too. I was in a house. There was one other guy standing next to me. There were other people in the home but we didn't know where. The lights in the home were out. And it was stormy and pitch black outside. We each had a flashlight, and these were our only source of light. We stood side by side frozen in fear as both our flashlight beams shined directly in front of us, through a glass sliding patio door and on a figure standing outside in the rain. It was a little girl. She had pigtails and her head was hung low, we could see tears streaming down her face along with the rain beating down hard on her. She was crying very loudly.she was a very young girl and she was wearing a Superman costume that was too big for her, the clothing was wet, dirty and torn all over. As out lights shined on her her head slowly lifted and we saw her eyes were pitch black. With everything so dark and this unknown figure I was so scared. I knew if we moved at all or tried to run, something awful would happen, likewise if we turned off our lights. We started desperately crying and shouting for help. I remember screaming "what is that?" over and over, and hearing my partner sobbing and saying "why is she crying?" multiple times. The whole scene couldn't have been longer than a few minutes. But it seemed like it was going to go on forever. I assume as I started shouting, that's when I was making weird noises that woke Chelsea, then she woke me up. Fell back to sleep shortly after. 10:30 am. Awake. Not getting back to sleep. This means Minecraft time. 10:45 am caught up on news and other random stuff, (gizmodo.com) 11:00 am MOAR Minecraft. 12:00 pm Jumped on Chelsea, because she is lazy and was still in my bed. 12:30 pm finally got Chelsea out of bed. Started watching Merlin to make sure the download was okay. 1:30 had to drag ourselves away from the TV because Merlin totally holds up 14 years later. 1:35 pm get dressed. 1:37 pm search for iPad 1:39 pm search for iPhone 1:42 leave 1:45 pm Bank, Chelsea's bank. Zion's Bank. I hate Zion's Bank. 2:00 pm dropped Chelsea off at her apt. (there was kissing). 2:20 arrived at the Grease Monkey right next to my work. There was an oil change and an oil system cleaning...or whatever. Meh. $53.97 2:59 pm arrived at work. (that was pushing it really close). 3:00 pm dammit. Work is busy. 4:00 pm already had 5 new install calls at work. This is crazy. 5:00 pm make that 11 new installs. Ugh. This is going to be a long day. 11:00 pm after many hours of annoying work. (work was busier than normal, bleh) Also, I was the only boy at work again today. This kinda sucks, I don't know what it is exactly, but some days just suck when I'm the only boy. 11:30 pm arrive at Chelsea's apartment. 11:32 pm naked. (spoiler) 1:30 am May 25th.......Pizza.

Cabin in the Woods

Dear Everybody in the Whole World,
I had a chance to see the movie "Cabin in the Woods" early. And it was one of the meat moments in my life. I highly recommend this movie to everyone. This is easily the best movie I've seen this year, and possible the best horror/thriller I've seen EVER.
 I was drawn to this movie as it was produced by Joss Whedon, and we all know I basically worship him. Not only that, but the movie was written by the same guy who wrote Cloverfield...and that movie was AWESOME!
Cabin in the Woods is brilliant. It's a movie I can't even bring myself spoil for anyone (normally I don't care about spoilers). The movie comes out tomorrow 4/13/12 and you should all go see it! Yes, even those who don't like horror movies should go see it. The film is a brilliant mix of thriller and sci-go AND comedy. With amazon performances by too many actors to name...plus a couple cliche horror performances that are funny.
 Go watch this movie EVEN I you don't like horror films!

I ran out of vodka.

9:15pm So, I'm getting over a cold. It's weird, I don't actually get sick very often. But thankfully I was able to use a fair amount of sick-time at work and. I got a nice break. I actually made I to the movie theatre during said break. Something I don't do as often as I'd like. I went and saw two movies. I'm not going type up huge in depth reviews...because I'm lazy and typing this up on my phone. BUT. They were both super good. First was The Secret World of Arrietty. Of Course I'm going to go see this movie in theatres. Studio Giblhi will always have my support with any new release. This film has been out in Japan for a few years I think and actually was at the top of the box office over there for quite some time. Well worth it. Amazing fantasy epic, beautiful animation, rated G....well worth it for everyone! Second, I went and saw CHRONICLE. CHRONICLE was fucking awesome. Truth be told I'm impressed with how awesome it was with only a PG-13 rating, kids forced into such crazy situations would probably have more vulgarity...but the lack of more adult themes wasn't really noticeable. The film was well made, it seemed pretty low budget, but to be honest I havn't looked into it much. I recommend it to anyone interested in sci-fi action flicks. Besides the sickness and the terrible NyQuil induced dreaming, I had a good week. Spent LOTS of time with Chelsea...and LOTS of time playing video games. Also this makes me excited for vacation next week, we specifically took off a few days just to stay home and play video games. Plan big right : ) On a completely different note...I still want to make cooking videos and teach myself to cook. So I'm kinda working on that. I know I've been talking about that for a few months now. But it's still going to happen. On ANOTHER completely different note. I still don't have a computer. I built it when everything finally arrived, but the power supply wasn't working and I had to return it fo a new one....so I'm still waiting for for TigerDirect to recieve the shitty power supply, at which point they'll send me a new one.......so I'm still anxiously waiting for the ability to run awesome games on a delicious new PC... Ugh today has been long and rough.

UaauzhszigghGauUuuaaaahhhhh!!!!

I'm excited! Yesterday I got an e-mail update saying my package would be here on the 13th instead of the 15th and the package had arrived in Utah last night....it's the 13th now. It's 3:00am....FedEx normally sends their drivers out at 8:00am...and they normally get here around 8:30.........I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep.

I Smell Like a Girl

It's true, showered in the Girlfriends shower today...grabbed a bottle of body wash called "Paris Amour"..
WTF, REALLY!??
so naturally I made the wrong decision and used it.

but let's not dwell on that today.
I'm wicked excited because I ordered parts to build a new computer!!!
I'm loving TigerDirect.com, a good friend pointed me their way and this is where I shop for geeky computer things now!
I dropped $750 (I'll be getting a $60 rebate) and this thing is going to be a beast! 6 core processor, 8gb RAM, 1tb harddrive and a beautiful video card that has a max resolution bigger than my 42 inch TV (which is actually relevent considering I didn't buy a monitor yet so I'll be using my TV with it for a few weeks at least).
besides the fact that this computer will be the best device in the history of computers*, this is also the first desktop computer I'll own...first that's ALL MINE!!!!!
I'm excited!!!
I've been without a computer for more that a week now...RIP Victoria.

I Love This Song!

I love this song!

Probably more than I should

(it doesn't even swear)

Black is bettter than White

It's true, the Black iPhone is better that the White iPhone, so deal with it.
my first iPhone was white, not by choice, it was the only color available at the moment and I wanted it so badly... maybe it was my subconsious that decided to wash my iPhone so I had to replace it with a Black one.
In any case my phone has finally been replaced.
funnily enough instead of just paying retail price ($650) to replace the phone it was cheaper to add a line to my plan and pay only 200 bucks for the new phone and 2 year contract...then switch the lines around so I had the same phone number....so I now have a family plan through Verizon : P
in fact to make it cheaper I got a family plan AND changed my service to a senior citizen plan.....which is weird but hey, 5 bucks less a month.
this works out fine, since I'm planning on moving in with Chelsea in a few months. plus she's looking to get rid of her ATT service and we've talked about getting phone service together...so this works out fine I guess.

In fact I was kind of expecting another anxiety attack to come on after being forced to think about getting on a cell phone family plan and moving in together, but it wasn't that bad.
a few days after I washed my phone I actually had a really bad panic attack. (not directly related to the loss of my precious Apple Product, btw). It was the first anxiety attack I'd had in close to three years, which really sucked.
it made for a terrible work day and a few really bad nights at home alone.
dealing with depression day after day for so many years has, in a way, become easy. I have bad days and good days, but most of the time I'm fine and the day to day boring life that I lead isn't interupted. But a full blown panic attack.....fuck at the best of times I was pacing back and forth my apartment crying because I needed to fix something and I didn't know what or how.

Life as a (semi)responsible adult still freaks me out, but at least I'm looking forward to moving out of the shithole I'm in and into a real apartment with someone I could be fine spending 24 hours a day with.

*cries*

Well, last night was the saddest night of my life.
Here's a breakdown.

9:30 pm: Chelsea and I left Coldstone Creamery and headed back to my apartment (I just needed to throw this part in because Coldstone Ice Cream is fucking delicious).

12:15 am: commence drowning sorrows in a bucket of Coldstone Sweet Cream Ice Cream (this actually helps).

Drunkard!!!

Actually, I'm happy that I'm the furthest thing from a drunkard ever. But that didn't stop me from getting drunk last night. I rarely get drunk, last night was the first time I'd been drunk in over a year. Sure I drink on occasion, in fact I often keep a few beers in my fridge just in case I need a relaxing night in from of a movie with a cold one. The party last night was awesome, it was definitely my kind of party. It was small, there were only about 8 of us, and I knew everyone there, one guy I had only met once before, but it wasn't hard to only have to meet one person. We all drank and chatted very comfortable with each other, it wasn't crowded or hard to feet around anywhere in the house, also there was no shitty music or half naked dancing....which, as awesome as that sounds, I've never participated in. Plus, I didn't drink too much, I drank quite a bit, got drunk, then stopped, didn't puke like some people did : ) My good friend actually got super wasted and puked in the chip bowl right in front of everybody...it was really pretty funny. I've kinda had a long week, partied three times this week, which is three times more than I have the past year. All parties I attended were for my friends who were visiting from out of state. It was super fun though, and I miss them already. Mostly I regret not hanging out with them more when they lived here.
