I work at Target part-time and I work for a friend's business. Nothing exciting. Just gotta pay the bills, save money for college (I wanna do graphic design, music comp.)
I've been playing a decent variety of poop lately. I've been juggling between the DmC reboot, Forza 5, Halo MCC, GTA V, and Freedom Wars.
I have a pathetic job I'm trying to get out of while I search for an ethical game publication that pays its writers. It's been that way for about 2 years.

retail? fast food?
also yeah I can't really think of any good game publications these days
Because games writing is constantly driving itself into the ground with horrible practices, corruption, yellow journalism and a boys club mentality that drives away new talent.
I went to college and racked up a bunch of debt from student loans and credit cards and managed to pay it all off. Now I've moved back in with my mom because it's way cheaper. Currently working in a factory and I'm always too tired to do anything during the week.
I can afford to pay off the rest of my small student loan, but I keep putting it off. =(

It doesn't say debt, but you get the idea. Congrats dude. What do you do in the factory? Also that sucks that it's so draining.

Well, the Shonen Otaku Corner is all about Japanese games and good writing.
I work night shifts as a stock clerk for Publix right now. Saving to move at the moment. In my spare time I spend time with my girlfriend or friends these days. If I've been playing video games, it has been with them or when I compete. I have been going to local Smash tournaments and cleaning house in both Smash 4 and Melee. People around here don't really play Brawl or Project M, the lack of the latter sucks but it is what it is. Marvel is dead here. Guilty Gear(even the new one) is dead here. Blazblue is dead here. Street Fighter 3 Third Strike has a small scene but is slowly dying as I'm one of the last players around(There are literally like 14 of us left). The FGC here is finally dying and I suppose that is only fitting that I too leave my hometown.
My mother died on Monday at 1:15AM, 40 minutes after I last saw her at the hospice. I thought I had prepared but no, no if there is anything I have learned from all of this it is that there was nothing I could do to prepare emotionally. Everything is changing and I can't really say I'm very good at adapting this time. Things are quite different from when I first visited this place. Never imagined that I'd be here in 2015.
That's life. Lots of good and lots of bad.
I...... I don't even know how you have the strength to type.... :(

I've been coming to some sort of forum for years for some bullpoop reason or another. These days it is more therapy than anything else, seeing some familiarity in a time where everything is radically different from what it all used to be.
That's how man.
So did ya ever check out Nsider2?
I teach people how to dance. Getting them ready for weddings, get a date night, trying to get dates themselves, the works.
I also dance competitively, perform, choreograph, and many other dance-related things.
I also go out social dancing almost every weekend, and the only time I don't is when I'm doing something dance work related. So I'm dancing almost every day of every week. It feels pretty badass honestly.
I'll bet you're hyped for the new Persona 4 game.
And I was banned from Nsider 2. =(

I said "ahahaha" to your earlier post about old boys clubs and yellow journalism.
But I can agree somewhat to this if for no other reason Shonen is fun to talk with on Twitter.
What do I do? Stuff. And things. Still pretty much as busy as I always have been.
Doing pretty good. Ima lead cook at a grill. Been playing bloodbourne a lot recently.

Huh? Do I know you on Twitter? :O
The SF4 community here died around the time Super was popular. By the time the next edition was out tournaments had dried up.
If I wanted to play I'd have to drive to Orlando or Miami and I just can't afford that. I have work, so that's that. I'll probably play a lot of online in fighters again once I get a fight stick that isn't locked to just one platform. My old Tournament edition SFIV stick is still in premium condition but I can't seem to sell it to put the money towards a new one that is multi-platform.
Thanks Custom

ahhh, that sucks. actually, about that stick. I have seen some cables that supposedly convert old sticks to new platforms
let me try to find it for you
found it
http://controllermax.com/
i don't know how well it works, but it exists I guess
So does that actually work with Fight sticks? I can't see anything that says it doesn't, but still.
Also, 100% undetectable online? Man, it has turbo features and poop. I don't want my friends thinking I'm cheating :x
But I guess its better than shelling out all the money for a new fight stick

when I first saw it i'm pretty sure it was advertised to the fgc
it sucks they added all these petty features like turbo to try to up sales
http://evo.shoryuken.com/additional-rules/
banned from evo oh poop
i dunno dude, but yeah... it seemed like a good option
maybe you can find something similar but better/more widely accepted? i mean the technology exists, there's gotta be more out there
Yeah perhaps. I don't know of anything short of a mod chip that will grant me access to everything I need.

wait are you shonenotaku?
After I graduated I got work as a production assistant with a production company in town, but I got laid off in December since the company greatly downsized/lost some shows. I've done a couple of other small time pa gigs in the meantime, but right now I'm working at Target retail. Other than that I mostly sit around in an apartment that I can't afford and play some vid games and watch netflix. But Custom you already knew that.
I literally just applied to a news station about a couple of hours ago, I'm hoping something comes out of it.
