You know the feeling you get when you have to sneeze? Like, one of those really good sneezes that you can feel swelling and just know it’s going to feel amazing? Well, that’s kind of what it’s like buying a house. You get the buildup and it drives you crazy because you just have to get it out, then you get the house and it feels as good as you thought it would. But, there’s a trick I learned that you can pull on people who need to sneeze. It’s a sneaky little trick, and it’s actually kind of mean. If you know someone is on the cusp of sneezing, like it’s in the nose and everything, say bless you before they sneeze. Almost every time the sneeze will be lost and the person will feel horrible. It almost feels like the sneeze said, “Nope, not yet son. You gotta wait!” It’s infuriating and aggravating to the sneezee (new word, score one for Mike!), and hilarious to the person who “stole” the sneeze. I bet you didn’t know that could happen with houses, did you? It can. All it takes is someone to come out to look at the driveway, the same driveway that you’ve been trying to look at for the past 4 days, and tell you that there is a major problem with the retaining wall that supports it. It’s like, I’m so close and there’s really only one thing that can go wrong, and it does. Only, it goes like 25k wrong. Seriously. I don’t even know how that is possible. It’s infuriating and aggravating and makes me feel too much. I need to sneeze only someone is saying I need to pay to do so. Basically, that cute Charmin puppy is holding my nose hostage and charging for the toilet paper. It’s so wrong.

One thing that is apparently not wrong, is Monster Hunter 3. The game, which shipped a million units even before it’s release, is getting the star treatment from Nintendo. The game is sure to be such a HUGE hit, that the Big N is pulling out all the stops. Don’t believe me? Well, the company is launching the classic controller pro the same date that the game ships. The controller looks like a hybrid of the current classic controller if it was already placed in one of those cheesy controller holder things, and the PS3 Dual Shock 3, and it’s white. I’ve ranted about how Ninty should put out a controller like this for gamers and games who don’t want waggle, and it’s nice to see that our Japanese brethren are getting them. I know what you’re thinking, “So what? A new controller isn’t exactly parading Cheryl Cole out for a game’s release…” Well, I forgot to mention that the mythical Black Wii is also launching the same day. That’s right, be jealous. The black Wii is beyond sexy and I’m interested to know how many ship in the early weeks of it’s release, and how many of those numbers coincide with Monster Hunter Tri. It’s amazing to me that Nintendo is backing this game so much, and it’s a third party game! Monster Hunter 3 fans that live in the states and in Europe will be able to get their hands on the game sometime next year. Now if we could just get some word on the CCP and Black Wii coming stateside the circle would be complete. Or at least some Cheryl Cole announcing a Yoga game ala Daisy Fuentes!!
