I don't need much...

Rumor has it that Guitar Hero can be played in 3-D.  I'm pretty sure that's key to being really good at the game.  If I could experience this game in the third dimension, the way I believe it is meant to be experienced, then I think I could accomplish all of my goals in life.  Is it sad that all of my life goals are centered around a game that's only been out for about a week?  I don't think so.  I prefer to think of it as totally awesome.

My point is this, I clearly need to play this game in 3-D.  Fortunately, this isn't that hard to accomplish.  See, all I need is a second projector, a couple of polarizing filters, a set of polarized glasses and a nice silver screen.  I'm still surprised these items have not yet been donated to me, but I can't say it's the first time society as a whole has ignored my obvious need for something (I still don't have an iPhone, but give it another 35 days and then check in with me).

I'm not an unreasonable man though, I understand that it's not really fair of me to assume everyone knows what kind of projector I need (it's a Mitsubishi PK 10 by the way.  Sorry society, that excuse has now been thrown out the window.).  But I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a brown paper bag filled with the one thousand or so dollars that I need to complete the setup myself.  What gives?  

I'll tell you what society, I'll make you a deal;  If you leave a "present" outside my door some time within the next two weeks, I'll forget that you ever insulted me in the first place and I'll have you all over for a GH 3-D party the day after Thanksgiving.  Deal?

3 posts in a row? Are you secretly doing NaBloPoMo and hoping no one would notice? Well I noticed.

I did not however much understand this post seeing as I have never played Guitar Hero in my life even though society keeps saying I should (and yet also not giving me a bag of money to purchase necessary GH items). So apologies, and I can maybe sorta kinda pledge a dollar for this cause.

guitar hero is like a disease--a very infectious disease. it's taken up residence in my house, too.

That seems like a very fair offer.

Who wants to teach me how to play GH?

Syar: Again, I can neither confirm, nor deny any such allegations. I stand by my previous statement that I am an unpredictable entity with neither a conscience or a moral compass when it comes to posting.

It's obvious that society has failed us both. At least you'll have a good sob story for the jury when you're explaining what drove you to steal all the necessary items to play Guitar Hero. There's no way they find you guilty. Not with such an empathetic society running around out there. How can anyone be responsible for their own actions with influences like that?

Madelyn: No, some of them will be about forgetting to put on pants.

Anonymous: It's the wave of the future! Retro that is...

Cadiz: Disease has such a negative connotation... I embrace my new friend and don't see what's so wrong about loving music.

Lia: I will be holding lessons on alternating Tuesdays. Feel free to sign up. Admission is only $1,000, so what are you waiting for? Get your Guitar Hero career started today!

Madelyn: Let's see how many of YOUR posts are about GH now...
