I admit that I can be a pretty aimless person without the right motivation. However, when something matters to me or the people I care about, you can rest assured that I will be do whatever it takes to help out. That is along as I don’t get stuck or lost along the way. That’s where the lessons of Darksiders II come in. The Lessons of Darksiders II Birds are better than maps Don’t climb. Scurry. No one wants to help [...]
Unless you’re a member of PETA, uninvited rodents, insects and other creepy things wandering into your home can be both frustrating and a possible cause for concern. Animals tend to do whatever they want, whenever they want so dealing with them isn’t quite as simple as polite negotiation. While there are many different ways of dealing with the invading vermin, Orcs Must Die! 2 has a blueprint for success that will surely dissuade future unwanted guests. The Lessons of Orcs Must [...]
I don’t have a lot of friends. I’d like to keep it that way. However, with the proliferation of social media outlets, I have more friends than I ever thought possible. I think the right amount of friends is around 108. Thanks to the lessons of Suikoden, my theory might prove true. The Lessons of Suikoden Talk to everyone, they might join you Rock, Paper, Scissors is the key Don’t take from witches Forgive your enemies Talk to everyone, they [...]
The summer doldrums can be pretty taxing. It’s easy to get lost in routines and just wish the days by and forget about some of the things we take for granted, like nature. The world around us still has plenty of adventures and discoveries left in it which all get even better when they are shared with friends of both the animal and same species variety. It is best explained by the lessons of Outernauts. The Lessons of Outernauts Animals [...]
In 1996, aliens known as the Nerdlucks came to Earth and stole the basketball abilities from a who’s who of NBA superstars. Fortunately for everyone who enjoys freedom, Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny and a host of other Looney Toons teamed up and sent those skillset stealing jerk-offs back to where they came from (well, they actually ended things on a more diplomatic note, but we’ll ignore that for now). What happens, however if a similar situation occurs in the near [...]
I’ve been known to go on many adventures. My wife always refers to the next adventure as my final one. However, for my latest adventure I had a trick up my sleeve. I would name it two different things to help in the confusion. Is this the third adventure or the sixth? She couldn’t keep it straight. That is until my seventh adventure. But I have a few years until I embark on that journey. Thanks to the lessons I [...]
The way society works most of the time only benefits certain types of people. It can seem impenetrable to outsiders, but I’ve figured out how to break through a few walls that they’ve put up to contain us. Embrace the lessons of The Darkness. The Lessons of The Darkness Kill all of the lights Kill distractions when those around you die Kill the voices in your head with kindness Kill all doubt that you are the boss Kill all of [...]
Being a kid is tough. I should know, I used to be one. In light of this, I think it’s beneficial for former kids like myself to look back on their own childhoods and use those experiences to help modern day children live the best lives they can. Seeing as I was kind of a douchebag during my younger years, it’s probably better that I glean useful advice from the Sega Genesis classic Kid Chameleon instead. The Lessons of Kid [...]
I have trouble ever being truly comfortable in any situation. That’s why I refuse to ever leave my house, but let’s face it: most accidents and all break-ins happen in the house, so I’m not really safe there, either. It’s all I have, but thankfully I’m a bit better prepared thanks to the lessons of Dead Space. The Lessons of Dead Space Be scary right back Boots are the most important line of defense Spare no appendage Be scary right [...]
I rarely take time off from adventuring. What is life without a grand adventure? However, everyone needs a little vacation once in a while so I decided to let my sister take over my adventures for 24 hours. Thanks to the lessons she learned from King’s Quest IV: The Perils of Rosella, I can take longer vacations. So I’m taking this week off and I’m giving the reigns of this week’s I Learned Something Today over to her. The Lessons [...]
