At What Point Do I Become a Veteran in Video Games?

March 17, 2022March 13, 2022 Medic 0 Comments ramble, random, rant

As a human being, I don’t have much self-confidence. It’s something I have struggled with for a while, both online and offline. Today, I am mostly looking at the online side of things. Because I have almost no self-confidence when it comes to games. When I used to play PvP stuff, I was rarely ever pleased with myself. Mostly because I always played as a support. Mainly just Medic in TF2, but also in other games I dabbled with. The reason I played support was always two-fold. Firstly, no one else wants to play support most of the time, but… [Continue Reading]

Just Some Cool Small Youtube Channels that I’d Like to Recommend

March 12, 2022March 7, 2022 Medic 3 Comments random

When it comes to Youtube, my recommended section is always a bloody mess. It’s mostly full of old ASMR shit or the same handful of episodes of QI or Taskmaster. And never in any reasonable order. If it’s not UK quiz shows that I’ve already watched, it’s those damn “lo fi” channels constantly popping up, “mixes” of music or videos in a language I can’t read. Occasionally I’ll find something interesting, but I have to filter through all the other stuff first. However, sometimes you do find really cool stuff. Like the ones mentioned here.

On Making The Worst Warframe Specter Ever

March 5, 2022February 28, 2022 Medic 0 Comments random, specter, warframe

A while back, I looked at Warframe Specters. These DIY clones can offer fantastic support, and are cheap to make and use. Well, the basic ones are cheap to use, but cosmic specters are a bit too pricey. That being said, at higher levels, there’s not much difference between the different specter types anyway. Either way, there are some great specters to choose from, like Wisp and Nidus. However, a thought occurred to me lately. What if I tried to make the WORST specter possible? How bad could it be? Limbo It’s no competition here. The Limbo Specter does basically… [Continue Reading]

Motivation and Exercise – Better Something than Nothing

February 23, 2022February 18, 2022 Medic 0 Comments exercise, random, real life

As the weather warms up in the northern hemisphere, people start looking forwards to spring and summer. But if they’re anything like me, they may be dreading about how to get a nice summer body. After all, we all chunk up for Christmas, and it’s all cold and horrible in January and February. The motivation to get up and start exercising is generally very low. Sometimes, it gets so low that one decides they can’t be bothered to get out of chair, or out of bed even. However, no matter your age, it’s always good to exercise, even if it’s… [Continue Reading]

Little World-Building Tidbits I’d Like to See in Warframe

January 31, 2022January 26, 2022 Medic 0 Comments lore, random, story, warframe

Warframe has a lot going for it. We recently had a war go in and have just started making things go back to normal. In particular, the New War did somewhat show how normal people lived, most notably for the Tenno. However, I feel like a lot of world-building lore is pretty well hidden, restricted to quests or events of the past. Here are a few ideas I’ve had, to add just a pinch of nice lore into the daily grind. Exploring other colonies a bit more “What other colonies?” you may ask. Well, there’s been a few mentioned.

The Best Non-Warframe Specters

October 18, 2021October 10, 2021 Medic 0 Comments random, specter, warframe

Warframe can seem quite odd at times. But one of the things I find particularly odd are Specters. Not just Warframe Specters, but random other specters too. While I have already discussed Warframe specters (and done so quite a bit), I haven’t really mentioned the handful of other specters we can use. And if you play Warframe with enough random characters, you can obtain a lot of these specter blueprints with ease, as they mostly drop from Syndicate attacks. What’s interesting though is that we actually have some backstory when it comes to specters. They were originally the brain child… [Continue Reading]

A Random Wrestling Article

October 7, 2021September 30, 2021 Medic 0 Comments random, wrestling

I have always kinda liked wrestling. While most people just shrug it off as nothing but a fancy show, that doesn’t mean that wrestling is all bad. If anything, I think it’s more of an acquired taste. And that’s okay, because not everything is geared towards everyone. If you don’t like wrestling, you can always watch something else. There is definitely some nuance when it comes to wrestling. And some storytelling. And a lot of acting. It takes genuine skill though to throw someone into a table without killing them. The fancier matches are fun, but so are the normal… [Continue Reading]

My Weird Way of Naming Pokemon in Pokemon GO

September 9, 2021August 31, 2021 Medic 0 Comments houndour, naming, pokemon, pokemon go, random

Whenever I browse my Friends List, looking to send gifts, I always tend to note what their Pokemon Buddies are called. After all, pretty much everyone in Pokemon GO has a buddy. What’s interesting though is when you can see their companion’s names. Many people have slightly different ways of naming their Pokemon. Some people just leave their buddy unnamed, but I like seeing people walking their Hundos and Shinies. It’s pretty obvious when someone is walking a 100% IVs Pokemon too. Either they have 100% in the Pokemon’s name, or a 15/15/15. Occasionally, you’ll also see the odd 14… [Continue Reading]

On Painting My Nails

August 5, 2021July 30, 2021 Medic 0 Comments art, beauty, ramble, random

A long time ago, I had an obsession with nail polish. I would happily blow (some) of my pocket money on new colours. In fact, I went for the cheapest and brightest colours available, and kept them all in a hideous red bag. With my massive stockpile of varnishes, I would paint my nails semi-regularly, always trying to do something creative. Heck, I wanted to paint other nails too. And, for some reason, I painted a small Warhammer figurine with nail polish. Simply put, as a crazy teenager, I liked nail polish a little too much. But, for reasons unknown,… [Continue Reading]

Taskmaster

July 30, 2021July 22, 2021 Medic 0 Comments ramble, random

I’ve had a very busy few weeks, but I recently had some time to myself and decided to spend it badly. Over the weekend, I watched pretty much nothing but Taskmaster. And I laughed a lot. But what even is Taskmaster and why am I laughing so much? Taskmaster is a comedy TV show that airs on Channel 4 in the UK, and was originally aired on the channel Dave. Yes, there’s a UK TV channel called Dave. It mostly shows reruns of Top Gear and similar shows. The Dave channel is also home to some panel shows and stuff… [Continue Reading]
