Seriously.
Seriously.
Take music from The Fray, a console war, and people with too much time on their hands. Mix together and you get something funny enough that non-gamers probably get this.

If you’ve ever wondered why your life is the way it is, this video may help. It may also help if you’ve ever wanted to know what a good business presentation should look like. This video will not help you find true happiness, though.
No, not that kind of fantasy. The Final Fantasy kind of fantasy. The kind geeks like (wait, they like the other kind of fantasy, too…).
Mark Leung, who seems to have played enough Final Fantasy to have majored in the topic, has turned college into a real-life version of a Final Fantasy game. If you’ve ever played any of these games, you’ll appreciate the inside jokes, the music, and the absurd theme.
If you’ve never played, well, you won’t find this at all funny and might be scared that there are people in the world who do. And that I’m one of them.
UPDATE: This isn’t safe for work.

My favorite part: the Christian (named Jesús) who is a magic user.
John Edwards had a town hall meeting in Iowa and posted video of his introduction speech on YouTube. I’m bummed that the Q&A isn’t there (that’s the point of the meeting, right?), but this is the first town hall meeting I’ve ever seen, so I thought it post worthy.
I left a comment on the third video that I’ve pasted here:
He’s got my attention, but it’s still missing something. He’s saying good things, but doesn’t yet sound like he can pull it off or has the drive to pull it off. He talks like a man with ideas. Good ideas and good plans. But he doesn’t yet sound like a man who believes he can make his ideas or plans reality. There’s no gravitas. Not to me, at least.
But I’m watching now. And that’s a lot.
Here’s hopin some of the bloggers that are with him now can report on whether I’m just missing it so far or not.
Enjoy!
Here’s the video of John Edwards announcing his candidacy. It’s cool that this was put up on YouTube. How many more people will see this than many other announcements?
It’s also nice that he’s not 100% about being elected, but getting people to take action. I like that, but will want to see how that plays out in reality over time.
I also wonder how long it will be before someone complains about a white man talking while African-American boys work with shovels in the background…
