Most people that know me have described me as "awesometastic", "awesome", "lovely", "caring", "dynamic", and "Fandabbydozey"
(Note: these words were taken from actual posts on facebook when I asked my friends to describe me in one word. I had to giggle at some of the response)
Little did they know my guilty pleasure is none of those things! -dramatic music plays- A little background first though.
I have been a member of the Xbox Live community for almost 3 years. Since I first got into gaming I have loved the Xbox Live community and service as a whole. I got to play games with people from around the world, make new friends, and found a community that I felt a part of without having to change who I was. Awesome right? Except one tiny, itsy bitsy thing...
HACKERS/CHEATERS
Hate them. Hate them all so much. I can not stand going into a matchmaking game on Halo:Reach and find out that players are using an aim bot, or using a lag switch to gain an advantage. Sure, it helps THEM play, but it ruins it for everyone else. This is also against the Terms of Use and Code of Conduct for the Xbox Live Gold service that you have to agree to in order to even use the service. So what happens? They get found out, either by the Xbox Live Enforcement Team or by being reported, then they get hit with the ban hammer. Some offenses only get you banned temporarily, some force you into a corner, and give you a perma-ban.
So what is my guilty pleasure? Why... It is reading the Xbox Forums section for "Account Suspensions and Bans" and laughing as people try to make excuses for why they had cheated, or trying to lie to the very people that monitored them and witnessed them cheating! Yeah that's right... I'm sorry to all my dear friends that I have lied to and put up the facade of being amazing and caring. I secretly have this little tiny black hole in my heart for people like this:

Dear Sir or Madam, Cheating to get achievement is lame. They are something you are supposed to ACHIEVE, which is why they are called ACHIEVEMENTS <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, So you were just running a contest to sell services over the Xbox Service...Suuuuure you were <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Please understand that asking about your suspension is a great way to work through things. Doing so from an account that is ALSO in violation of the Terms of service and Code of Conduct is just plain stupid. <3 me
Dear Sir or Madam, Your avatar was looking a little green about the gills, so Enforcement took a look and saw you were cheating. Take 2 doses of LEARN THE DAMN RULES and call me in the morning. <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Unless your gamer pic is you IRL and you are actually an alien... good job flaunting that system tampering! <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Although I respect you and tip my hat to you for serving your country, threatening other users is not kosher. Please keep the threats at work, not on the Xbox. <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Good job on insulting the Enforcement team when there was NOTHING WRONG! Also, learn to read a map! <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Since that temp ban was bugging you so much, Here is a perma-ban courtesy of the BANHAMMER for selling modification services. Think twice before putting that on your profile next time =D <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Fantasy Football... Awesome. Blatant Racism... Bad move <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Selling Modded services on your profile= 1 ban. Posting about why you got banned from your secondary account that is ALSO selling modding service= Priceless laughter for me because that is ANOTHER ban for you. <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, So I hear you like to color coordinate? <3 Me
Dear Sir or Madam, Thanks for getting yourself Perma Banned! <3 Me
Okay... So MAYBE I am a little sick and twisted because I get enjoyment out of reading stuff like this. But I have a thing against people who don't follow rules, mod/hack and cheat their way through things. So, Forgive me? I love you all, and I hope you got some laughs too
So... here's the blog, you might think... "Dang that's a sweet header" YES IT IS DON'T KNOCK MY HEADER! Thanks to my wonderful awesome friend Dez for making it for me... I loves it. So anyway... now it's nuclear winter...
But not really. It's a nuclear holocaust cause I've been playing Fallout New Vegas all morning on my sexbox. I mean Xbox 360s... but the S makes me think it means "sexy" because the new 360 is damn sexy. So.... I've dubbed my console the SexBox. Deal with it. Anyway! Back to fallout... I've decided that my chick is a skank. I have seriously slept with the dude that tried to kill me (who I then murdered in cold blood right after he finished pleasing me) A robot named "Fist-o", A cowgirl in a swanky hat, and a few other people throughout the wasteland. I should open a brothel for all of them, well except the dead guy, and make money off them. God only knows you can never have enough money in that game. Also.... Beware of trainyards, cause there this one with Deathclaws, and they kinda rip our face off. Just an FYI if anyone who may try playing this game. Deathclaws + Low level you = mushy-pile of dead you on the Deathclaw's claws. Just saying. Be careful, and watch yourself. MOVING ON!!!
Other gaming crack right now: Halo: Reach. No, I am not so addicted like some crazy 12-year olds/adults out there that practically smash up the dang disc and snort it like a line of coke in order to get their game on. I use good old fashioned FAIL (I like the game, but yeah I kinda suck) and a lot of "plug in the mic and talk shit to the people you are playing against" Most boys/men flip out when I am on the mic because they go "OH SHI.... IT"S A GIRL!" and tend to be distracted and fascinated by me because god forbid there's a girl on the internet, and she's playing Halo. When they stand dazed and enamored by my presence, I run up, stick a sticky grenade to their face/nuts then run backwards and watch them explode. Oldest trick in the book, and it still works. Score 1 for me, Score 0 for the girl-obsessed gaming world. Win.
Onto some other news.... I am supposedly going to Sephora in about 4 hours for a makeover. Not sure if I trust them with my face, but I may still give them a chance. Maybe. If I do, blog later tonight with pictures of what they did to me will soon follow.
Speaking of Sephora- Tokidoki Lip gloss that is BRIGHT BLUE, goes on clear, and tastes like blueberries---- new addiction. I love it, I can't stop using it, and I constantly lick my lips like a nut job. Don't judge me... I love blueberries. =D
And I leave you all with this:
Watch it... you won't be disappointed. I listened to it and sang it while writing this for you guys. (I totally want to date that guy... he's cute, can sing, and more than likely a gamer. Love him.)
