So hey duders, I'm rather drunk, and I have a few things I want to say. Firstly, I'm not quite as drunk as I was when I did the first one of these, and the typo in the title is 100% intentional this time. And I'm not attaching this to the forum this timebecause the last time did that @MB stickied the thread to the forum and it was super embarrasing. But I have a feww thigs i want to talk about, so here goes. Sorry if its dificult to underasand due to my alcohol

St Patricks Day

Today was fun. Went to the pub. Drank guinness. Too much. but i do that every year. It was fun. I broke a glass. But that sometimes happens when I'm sober too. I'm clumsy. Either way it was a fun day.

Giantbomb/Wiskey Media

I can't begin to express how thrilled I am for all the guys involved in Whiskey. Giant Bomb teaming up with CBSi, on the face of it, seems insane. Had you siad 4 years ago that this would have happened, I'd have called you a looney and called for the men in white coats to come. It would have never happened, and it happening would have been the end of GiantBomb. But it happened, and on reflection, big company taking over is what GB needs. GB is big now. Big enough that they need that they need someone backing them up. CBS is leaving creative control with Jeff & Co, but giving them the financial backing to do what they want to do. That's the way to go, because it gives the guys more money to do the shit they want to, and they still get to decide what shit they want to do.

Also, Will & Norm over at tested are working with the Mythbusters guys. That's crazy. I've mentioned before (as have other people) that the tested crew were like the mythbusters of whiskey, so that's a perfect fit. the redesign was a little jarring, but ultimatley the jamie and adam heavy branding is just that, it's a branding thing. it's to attract new people to the site. Will and norm are still involved and the core of the site. I don't care who has their name on the top of the site. As long as will and norm are still involved in the core curation of the site, it's fine with me.

It sucks that GB and the rest of the WM crew will no longer be in the same office. But ultimately everyone seems to be going to a place where they're best off in the long run, so everything is fine.

Muamba

For those of you who don't follow football (soccer), today in a match against Tottenham, a Bolton player called Muamba collapsed on the filed with an apparent heat attack. The current reports are that he stopped breathing, was resuscitated and is now in a critical condition. I'm a big football fan. Suff like this is deeply worrying. I hope he pulls through. It's tragic that things like this can happen, and my thougts are with him and his family.

Work

Last time I think i talked in any detail i didn't have a job. now i do. I'm also at work tomorrow morning, so rather than blogging I should be asleep. So I'm dumb. Very dumb.

My avatar

Thanks to @Sparklykiss for reminding me of this one on twitter: MY AVATAR DOES NOT HAVE TESTICLES FOR A MOUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111oneoneoneone

Other stuff

I'm sure there were other things i wanted to talk about when i started writing this, but i've fogotten. I said at the start I wasn't going to attach this to the forums, but i probably am because im both an idiot and less drunk than i was last time.

It's okay, Matty, nothing wrong with having testicles on your face. It's not like you can help it or anything.

Oh ok.

Dammit, someone post that picture of Matty's avatar with literal testicles on his face - stat! I can't remember the name of the thread!

I guess sequels are rarely as good as the original.

I said right off the bat that I wasnt as drunk as the first one. It obviously wasn't going to be as much of a crazy thing as the first.

I think I've unintentionally worn green shirt on St. Patty's Day more times than I have deliberately. Also, do they celebrate that in the UK/England? Or is it just sort of awkward for them?

@Abyssfull: *cough*

The implication of that, of course, is that Matty has been boofing alcohol due to his lack of mouth. Which is something I support 100%.

@MattyFTM Lets hope Fabrice pulls through ,still praying for him and his family.

Also good result for us at Everton today lets hope we can win the replay so I can have a nice trip down to Wembley for the semi final.

At first I thought a big company taking over Giant Bomb would be bad, but then Jeff said the opposite so now I think the opposite.

@MattyFTM: Can't....Unsee the testicles.

I guess my expectations were still too high!

YO DAWG YOU WASTED.

It's OK, I know your avatar is from Full Metal Panic atleast lol.

And I'm not attaching this to the forum this timebecause

You need to get more drunk.

You've got balls, Matty. 
 

I really hope the Tested guys have as much control/input as they say they do. I suspect that the jarring transition was a corporate decision so that the Mythbusters could say "Boom, here is our web site!" and that Norm/Will would rather have done a GB-style video discussion. That would have alleviated a majority of the hysteria that ensued yesterday.

I will have some whisky tonight in honor of Whisky Media. I know that all the sites are moving on to bigger and better, but I will look back fondly on the birth of these quirky, beloved web sites.

I have not been drinking yet, but I sound suspiciously maudlin...

Umm, I'm reading this on the forums, Matty.

You say you're not as drunk this time, but you accidentally posted it on the forums when you deliberately planned not to do so?...

Oh, the many ill things I can do with this statement.

Probably one of the reasons why I may not want to watch Full Metal Panic. =-P

That's too long to be a drunk blog. Disqualified.

Flagged.

Most disappointing drunk blog ever. You weren't drunk enough to drunk blog.

I was a promised a rant, all i got were positive statements and encouraging words, disappointing.

Still looks like testicles. Also there's much less drunken stuff than I thought.

I wondered,, after the first drunk blog, how do you drink with those balls? I mean, is there a mount under there and you just have to (man is this awkward) lift the balls up every time you take a drink or do you just use something like a scrunchy to hold them there while you're dining?

YOU CALL THIS DRUNK????

GTFO!

I am disappointed.  I wanted to see a mod lock a drunk post that a mod made
