OoooH!! I would love to play it when you get to that stage! *happy dance of joy!*
I never saw Eragon. I don't think I've even read the book yet.
Did those jawbones still have the teeth in them? Sometimes, malnourishment makes your teeth fall out.

Cool! I'll play it, though I'll most definitely suck at it. ^^;
I read the book and loved it, but I never saw the movie. From what I heard, the only people who liked it had never read the book. :/ And they were typically not very picky about their movies at that. In other words, I heard the movie=suckitude. If I ever feel masochistic, I might try watching it just to see how bad it is. And besides, it can't be as bad as most fanfiction. *shudder*

I'm generally pretty bad at video games, but I still like to play. I tried that Guitar Hero one for the PS2, but since my left hand is still partly numb, I couldn't feel the buttons. I honestly couldn't tell whether I was pressing them or not. I got booed off the stage in like 10 seconds.

Like me and DDR? I'm only good at a few videogames, but I tend not to allocate time for them, instead preferring to go to web forums and whatnot. I have been thinking of getting a mobile game thingy, either my old gameboy color for some pokemon fun, or one of those station of play for pocket getups, so I can play "steal cars and run people over" while riding in a bus or a car or a train or whatever.

Only games I play - FPS and old Dos games. Call me weird.
I like how you called it a "mobile game thingy", I just find it funny. Trips like that can usually end up being boring, especially if you're not tired enough to sleep. Sometimes I play permament-marker-hangman-and-see-how-long-it-takes-to-get-yelled-at. But that's about it.

Oh I LOVE hangman. My friend and I are trying to devise a way to play through e-mail. It's probably going to involve MS Paint, though. I never owned a portable game thingee. I've got a few little handheld games like Scrabble, Trivial Pursuit, and Jeopardy, but no little thingee that you can play different games on.

Only one I've owned was a Gameboy Advance.
You wouldn't need MSpaint to do it. Just have underscores between unguessed letters, and just type what parts of the hangman are currently being hung, unless you want the visual representation.

Oh there's gotta be visual representation. There's just gotta. That's half the fun! We do themed gallows and everything. Today, he was in town, and we went to lunch together. We got a pen and a scrap of paper, and the subject was lines from Monty Python movies. The gallows were MP themed. It's hilarious!

*is about to be cinder blocked a thousand times over*. I have never seen Monty Python.
That sounds like a good idea... a theme hangman. "Hangman at the airport" "Hangman on our vacation" "Hangman at a rock concert" "Hangman in the parade". They would all feature him on the gallows, but in some kind of fasion to fit the scene. If he was in Hawaii, then he'd have one of those absolutely insane flower shirts and pants.

Exactly! Once, we were doing Latin words hangman, and we did a really elaborate and decorative gallows. Another time we were doing electronic equipment, and we had an electrified gallows.

I remember once my friend and I did anime hangmen. She hung Ed Elric and I hung Roy Mustang--just to spite each other. XD We did entire phrases for some reason, and so ended up with little conversations in hangman.
And Cory, I'm envious that you can even play those games in the car. If I do that, I get sick.

Hmm I'm going to have to try a theme hangman sometime, it seems pretty hilarious.
You know, that's funny, because that's the thing that keeps me from NOT getting sick in a car.

We'll do lines from movies, songs, poems, books, you name it, we've probably tried it. Man, I'm really bummed today. I had so much fun yesterday, and now he's gone again, and we're still technically just friends.

Apparently, according to Taylor, the word "flag" usually really baffles people. But I got it pretty quick because instead of listing a letter, I was giddy and yelled "Beef!" as my suggestion, and thus got the "f". XDDD
Aaw. *hugs Pipe Organ* I'm bummed just because of Finals stress, but it sounds like you're really down. "Just friends" is probably better than outright animosity, but still.

Hmm... I haven't actually tried to do the whole gaming in the car thing, I usually got a bit carsick when reading, so I was relegated to simply looking out the window and enjoying the scenery - I've since gotten a bit better so I can read a few pages, and it's never been an issue with me on busses, for some reason.
