After reading about the fun that kittykatya<\/a>, eeedge<\/a>, jsciv<\/a> and impink<\/a> are having, I put a copy of Katamari Damacy<\/a> (PS2) on my Wish List, and raininva<\/a> bought it for my birthday. This game is incredibly surreal and trippy, and has that wonderful “let me just try this level one more time<\/i>” quality. The player must rebuild stars by rolling together clumps of loose objects on Earth – you have to try it out to understand it. Highly recommended.<\/p>\n

Finished watching the Brent Spiner episodes of Enterprise<\/i>. Pretty good overall, with the last episode the strongest. Despite its enjoyability, the arc hit some of the most tiresome cliches in Star Trek<\/i>: “it only takes five guys to take over a Starfleet vessel”, “with the fate of humanity at stake, we’ll nevertheless give the bad guys all the access codes they want if they threaten one of the show’s stars”, “the Enterprise<\/i> isn’t worth diddly in a real fight unless the heroes know their opponent’s Secret Weak Point(tm)”. Yes, they all made sense in the story context, I’m just tired of seeing them again.<\/p>\n

The Meyers-Briggs-Trek personality test<\/a> says that I’m an INFP, much like Kes or Elim Garak<\/a>. Rain’s response was “Garak? Eww! Well… hm. Actually…”<\/p>\n
