Prepare to be Provoked. Factually.

– I was up until like 3:00 AM yesterday in an online MSN meeting with my group for Design of Interactive Computational Media class, in which the last entire hour was spent trying to come up with the group name. The most meaningless yet difficult part of any group project. Here were some of my ideas…

Player Haters
The League of Extrainteractive Gentlemen
Breyer’s Classic French Vanilla Ice Cream
The Men From Nantucket
Four Guys, No Girl, And No Pizza Place
The Communist Party Of Canada

As you can see, I was clearly reaching for some of them, but I still think most are solid. Better than combining all the initials of our name into some retarded non-word, at least.

…

Feel free to adopt my fantastic ideas as your own. Eventually in an attempt to kill the meeting off and get to bed, we decided on the group name “TBA” or “The Best interActors.” …I can assure you that at three in the morning, it sounds DYNO-MITE. Maybe not so much now, but what’s done is done.

– Also, at some point down the line of designing our product, it became necessary for me to create a Neopet. The details are fuzzy – all I know is that at some point I blacked out, and when I woke up, I had an illegitimate child that I immediately didn’t want. BoBizzile The Buzz. I wish I could say that I’m washing my hands of this site, but I can’t help but see an uncanny resemblance between Neopets and Gaia Online. …which is a matter that may warrant further “investigation.”

– One more thing about this class…today was the first day with the real lecturer – he had been away for a “conference” and the head TA was covering for the first two weeks. Apparently his office hours are going to be on Friday 1:00 at 171 College Street. Better known as O’Grady’s Tap & Grill – he says that he’ll buy a pint for the first student there each week. … What the hell’s going on!?!

– I was completely obssessed with conforming to popular culture and picking up my very own iPod – specifically a Nano. But word on the street is that there’s a lot of issues with it. So I’m gonna hold off on that idea…maybe spend the money on dirty foreign hookers instead.

– What an ass. I love it.

– And finally…shit, I don’t even know. That’s fucked up. This is pretty good too.
