So, as much as my mom annoys me with her snide little comments, and mocking most of what we're watching, sometimes she really cracks me up.  I'm watching Advent Children, and mama waltzes in for the last half of it.  Upon seeing Cloud, she refuses to believe that he is a man.  Swears up and down that Cloud has to be a woman, because he's too pretty and is perfectly clean shaven.  Of course, she has no problem believing Cid and Barret are male.  Hell, she even believes that Vincent is a man (even before he spoke), but nope... there's no way.  Cloud has to be a woman.  After a while, I'm pretty sure she's just being a troll, but it's still amusing.  Then, she says something that keels me over with hysteria.  At the end of the movie, when Aeris is leaving with Zack my mom says, "Yea, I'm gonna go with him, because he's manlier."

She could not comprehend the beauty behind why I was laughing so hard, but was still amused at my reaction.  I always knew Cloud was just a fake, blonde Zack, and now I know that people who don't know anything about the series can see it too.

So, I was testing out the PS3s ability to play PS1 games, but still wasn't able to save.  There was a cluster of compadres around the den, watching me play FF7 and was throwing out names for the characters.  One of them suggested I name Cloud, "Sexy Bitch".  Unfortunately, this wouldn't fit.  The compromise was to name Cloud "Sexy" and pass "Bitch" down to Barret.  Because this is the trail of logic our brains follow.  This turned out to be a brilliant decision.  I had forgotten that for a good chunk of the beginning Cloud is hounding Barret to give him his pay.  So, this led to many many scenes with Cloud saying, "Where's my money, Bitch?"  "Bitch, give me my money."

Of course, being the mature adults we are, we were laughing our asses off every time.  Barret is forever going to be Bitch, now.

(That's right, goin all Seinfeld on ya'll.)

Alright, this is gonna seem out of the blue, but can someone explain , or demonstrate or whatever, the difference between 8-bit and 16-bit sprites.  I thought I knew, but some things that I thought we're 8 are apparently 16 and I can't find a straight answer.  I get 4 and 32, but those others elooooode me.

So, first a bit of back story.  I just got Super Smash Bros for the 3ds, and as some of you may know, you can make your miis into fighters.  However, since there are three types, and I was a brawler, I decided to make Vincent be my gunner and Riku as the swordsman. (In case ya hadn't figured out I'm a nerd yet. Lol)  Any who, this led to me goin, "Hey I could have one each of the remnants too." Cause why not?  Now, another fun pastime I seem to have with smash is watching the computer fight each other.  So I decided Vincent should fight his kids.  Team battle, three on one fight between Vincent and the remnants, all at level nine.  It seemed rather fitting that it should come down to Kadaj taking on Vincent.  About fifteen minute battle, Vincent wins.  I find it hilarious.

Then, I get the bright idea in my head to make Cid. (Huge leap, I know). Then I make Cid fight Vincent.  Now, the only items I have on are the smash orb, healing items, and a new one that gives you an extra life.  (Which those boys took full advantage of). I originally had it set to 3 lives.  This battle went on for almost an hour.  Vincent was KOed 15 times.  Cid 9.  Poor Vincent got creamed, but it was epic.  I mainly blame this on the brawlers final smash being OP, cause it's fairly easy to avoid.  Then I took Vincents place to fight Cid.  Didn't loose as bad, but damn that man's strong. (Course, a lot of this amusement was from me picturing the five of them sitting around the den, each clutching onto a 3ds and taunting each other.)

Yea, I know ya'll are so happy I told ya that. Lol.  Any ways, have a good one peeps.  I gets ta decorate for Halloweeny.

For those it may concern (cause I'm not really sure how many of my followers are watching them)

I seem to have run into a bit of a snag concerning my keys suit.  The character I had initially planned to put on the six of keys is Jim Hawkins, from Treasure Planet, and is actually one that's rumored to be in kingdom Hearts 3.  Because of this, I don't have a design for the Keyblade that comes from his world, and I need it for the layouts of cards 6-10.  (I didn't quite think this through. Oops ^^; )  So, unfortunately, until the game comes out, or I get a confirmation, the keys are gonna be put on hiatus, with the exception of the court cards and coloring.  I don't wanna use any characters that aren't in the game.  If I really have to I can switch, but there's not many of the side characters that fit as well, and Treasure Planet's one of my favorite Disney movies; so I'm holding out hope.

On the plus side, even though I don't have a completed idea for every card in Staffs and Shields, those can be finished (Even out of order) since they don't have weapons that correspond to each level.  There's another character that I want to find a place for, that also may or may not be in KH3.  Holding out hope there too cause I've wanted Vincent in there since one.

Sorry for all the problems, and delays, my friends. I just figured I'd keep ya'll posted.
