Boy, I hear that. Feminists also rail against Street Fighter's Chun Li.

They might have a point, but that hasnt stopped me from ordering Street Fighter 4 from Steam a few minutes ago.
Now, Im no fan of fighting games. I think theyre really really stupid, in fact. And Im no good at them. And they really frustrate me.
Nevertheless, I purchased Street Fighter 4. Even though I rarely purchase games at all. And I could have easily downloaded a pirate copy for free.
Furthermore, I dont buy games in general. The only games Ive bought in the past 10 years or so have been Valve's collection.
Still...I ordered Street Fighter 4. I cant really explain why. £30 for this crap. Do I regret my decision? Not really. I have a full time, decent-paying job.
Oh, but I do regret buying Left 4 Dead. That was the last game I bought. £40 for that crap and I played it just a handful of times. I dont really like it. Valve really ####ed up on that game. And theyre already releasing a sequal (less than a year after the first was released). Total bullshit.
But yeah, Street Fighter 4 then. I dont know. I played Street Fighter 2 a few times at carnival arcardes as a kid. I wasnt any good but I liked it. I guess thats why I bought this one then. For the nostalgia.
Oh weird Dream of the Week, by the way. I couldnt remember how old I was. I mean, I was dreaming some odd dream but then I was coming back. I realized it was just a dream, you know.
So I was kind of coming to and trying to get back into reality. And I thought, "No, actually Im in high school. This is ok then. It was all just a crazy dream. I'm going ask that hot slut schoolmate Becky out"
Then I realized, "Wait a minute. Im not in high school. No, that cant be right. Im in college. Second year of college. I must be 21. I really need to focus and do well in my classes so I can get an interesting job".
Then that passed as well. So Im getting really scared. I cant remember my age and I fear that Im stuck in this crazy dream land and Ill never get back to reality.
But then I remember that Im actually almost 31 and dont do anything particularly exciting and not dating any hot babes or anything. What a downer that was.
