Vice
'Tis true I have few vices.... Well, few I will admit to in front of a global reading audience. But one of my addictions is playing Halo 2.
It is an odd past time for a woman, I'll admit, and my rather Kathleen Turner style voice seems to make my blending in with the guys easy... So I play on live, and at times on Kai XLink. Both are great fun.
My favorite thing? Shooting my dad (and our personal friends). We do this almost nightly. It passes the time, and has a seriously stress easing quality I have ne'er found anywhere else. My aim is to get the "heavy sigh" of frustration from my dad over the microphone. It is happening less and less as he improves his game, but on a good night, I can still get one.
My unfavorite thing is getting my ass handed to me by a bunch of foul-mouthed shit-talking 10 year olds, who I can only assume are holed up in their rooms while mom and dad are downstairs, completely oblivious to the "Fuck yous" and "Take that bitch's" muffled by behind their child's closed door. The kids are far worse than the grown ups the game was intended for. Would that I could just kick their asses and teach them a lesson...but kids like these do nothing BUT play the game, and are far superior to me... You would never know this by their ranks, of course.
In their infinite bravery in the game, they haven't the sack to go ask mommy to buy them a real membership to Xbox Live, and come up with a new persona every two months, therein resetting their online stats to newbie status. Little imps. I hate them all.... and one day... I'll be good enough to kill them too.
