The transplanted tweeting and cumulative chatter of elsewhere storming the gates of your patience

You bought the Orange Box? You have never seemed like a lover of the FPS genre to me. Even stranger is the fact that you are playing Team Fortress 2. I would have thought you would play Portal and Half Life 2 and shun the social gaming and racist 12 year olds of TF2. Who knows next time I look at your blog you may reveal that you have jumped into the world of Left 4 Dead.

Olivia bought The Orange Box, I'm simply taking advantage of the situation. Postal is fun, but the sense of humour in TF2 is too much to resist. It also doesn't crash my desktop computer like S4 League inexplicably does. I do however have an FPS lineage that goes back to Wolfenstein 3D and Doom though, if that helps the mental transition. Hell, i remember when they came out...

Don't worry though - I shun the racist 12 years old by a simple method: any game which has players who insist on talking over the game for more than 1.5 seconds and isn't advising on tactics is automatically left for another server. It has served me well.

Oliva does want Left 4 Dead, incidentally.

Well if Olivia does get L4D, tell her she better find three good friends to share the experience cause that game ain't nearly as fun on single player.
