My neck hurts

Ow, my neck hurts.
That’s me talking, not Osama. I actually have a krick in my neck so severe that I can’t turn my head to the right. This always happens. I’m thinking of having my neck removed, I’m so sick of it.
I know it seems like this news page is turning into me just compaining about whatever’s going wrong with my body instead of exciting news about our games. And it is. But that’s just because I don’t have any other big news to share with you right now. We’re still working away on BrĂ¼tal Legend, in all it’s epic glory. Our publisher is merging with another publisher, so they’re spending a lot of time trying on bridesmaids dresses, picking a caterer, choosing table linens, etc. I was sick for most of GDC, so nothing exciting happened to me there.

They fixed the thermostat in our office. That was pretty cool.

It stopped raining.

I downloaded the Patapon demo. That was awesome.

Hmm.

I guess this is why they say “No news is good news.”

No wait. I can think of something…

A police car drove by me yesterday, with it’s lights and siren on. It was going pretty fast.

Seemed like they had the situation under control, so I didn’t get involved.

Now I kind of wish I had, so I could write about it.

uh…

Holy crap, look at my cat! She’s licking a bag! What’s she doing that for?

UPDATE:

Omg, footage:

My cat used to lick my elbow and it felt good.

if it makes you feel any better, i live and breath to hear about you’re latest ailment. your tears taste so sweet.

Neck’s can be quite troublesome. I think you may be on to something about neck removal. Imagine the wonders that something like a jello mold would provide over a standard pain prone neck.

While I wouldn’t go quite as far as dpasquinelli, I do quite enjoy this most excellent News Page. It’s always nice to see an update.

Oh, and I think the cat is using the bag as a lense through which it can see incredible things.

Your cat might accidentally suffocate itself with that bag!


Posted by Apple Pop on 02/28 at 05:20 PM

That bag probably tastes pretty damn good. Like lemons or strawberries. You should test it and see if that’s true.

My cat licks weird stuff all of the time. The floor, box fans, the oven door, the shower curtain.

I’ve… I’ve stopped trying to make sense of it.

I wish I was a cat so that I could enjoy simple things like licking plastic bags downer

You can love your cat...but just don’t LOVE your cat.

This bag, it has a flavor.

My 2 year old niece was visiting and was pretending to be a cat (a ‘kittie’). She licked my drum set’s bass drum and then suggested I do the same:

‘Lick it’, she said.

I declined and changed the subject very quickly.

That’s kind of related, isn’t it?

I have a little black kitty, who is missing one eye. Her name is “Winky”.

Winky loves to chew on plastic bags, and this is not the weirdest of her traits.

M!

this week, the truly deep thoughts of the rich and famous

since we couldn’t find a rich and/or famous guy, we got tim schafer

it was pretty interesting nonetheless


Posted by Deg on 03/01 at 07:33 AM

Is that cat related to the teeny tiny kitten that was sitting next to your monitor in a blog post long ago?


Posted by Tikara on 03/01 at 12:00 PM

That video made my day 8D

Also, you have a Youtube account? Dude, you should upload little “Behind the Scenes” clips so everyone can see how crazy/awesome/crazyawesome you guys are :3


Posted by masquerade on 03/02 at 10:36 AM

Heh, some of the faces your cat pulls during that bag licking escapade are just too comical.


Posted by Heart-Shaped Noise on 03/02 at 11:29 AM

Bagzz is the best cat.


Posted by InvaderBlack on 03/02 at 12:16 PM

Why are there two “z"s in Bagzz? Does that effect pronounciation?


Posted by geordie999 on 03/02 at 08:57 PM

My cat licks Trader Joe’s paper bags.  He also has bad breath.  I don’t know if they’re related.


Posted by Viewtiful_Ben on 03/05 at 02:25 PM

Dude, ur cat is totally awesome. mine just sleeps, and attacks the carpet…


Posted by Mr. Dog on 03/09 at 11:20 AM

You could sneak up on employees with an airhorn and a camera and post the best faces they make. That might last for a few days until everyone got used to it. Then you could try it on the cats.

Be thankful your cat licks plastic bags and doesn’t urinate on them (also walls, parquet floors, the carpet /next to/ the cat litter, video recorders, cat food bowls, rocking horses, kevlar gloves).


Posted by ReconzPlz on 03/15 at 03:28 PM

OHHH EEEMMMM GEEE HE IS ATTACKING THE BAG!Run!


Posted by misshodge on 03/26 at 12:29 AM
