Mercedes-Benz
EQ
[Reading & Commentary],
Say
No To Sugar Daddies! [Reading & Commentary],
Pastry
Push: Feeding The Floor Dwelling Gengar Knockoff LOL!,
Subway
Surfers: Runs And Disses!,
and West
Hill Collegiate Institute: Foggy Day and Exterior Tour.
Yes, I got around to playing two games, so let's get into it!
With
the buzz of all these electric cars and hatchbacks, I decided that it
was time to do a commentary video on one of my favourites out of
these electric SUVs: the Mercedes-Benz EQ! The Audi e-tron Quattro is
another well loved choice of mine, but the EQ looks more futuristic
and cool from the front end. Then there's Jaguar's I-Pace. Another
interesting looking one, but still haven't looked into it much. So,
the video! While I was reading about this car, it definitely gave
more insights into what it was about, a better look at the interior
and importantly, the EQ brand. What I really learned from that, is
that this car will be the 1st
of the EQ product portfolio that could potentially span many
all-electric Mercedes vehicles. This is pretty interesting and
exciting, but as you will know from the commentary, there are two
things I don't quite like: autonomous driving and the 4-seater
configuration. If there's one thing Porsche is certainly doing right
with their Mission-E, that everyone else seems to be chasing, is this
whole crazy autonomous driving technology. Some people, including the
automakers themselves of course, keep insisting that it'll make the
roads much safer, because there will supposedly be no human error
once autonomous technology becomes perfected, but that has yet to be
seen. The technology in our vehicles has already become increasingly
automatic, and they want driving to be like that too? So far,
autonomous driving has caused some people to be very lazy and
careless, which has resulted in several interesting/sad/hilarious
news reports. The 2nd
issue is that too much electronics and tech causes poor reliability,
because it leaves vehicles with more components to go faulty, and
become expensive when repair time comes. And most importantly, it
takes the fun out of actually driving.
Since a lot of people, including myself, actually want to drive, I
really hope that these automobile manufacturers do not come to the
point where they make every car in their lineup 100% autonomous.
Thankfully, there are companies like Porsche and certain others that
understand this, so that won't happen. And even if they try to, we
can always vote with our wallet and boycott cars that are 100%
autonomous, should they ever try to pull such a move. I know vehicles
have changed considerably over the years, mostly for the better, so
it was necessary to embrace those changes. Is it necessary to embrace
a change just so some people will be able to sleep, do their makeup,
scratch their butts, eat and do a million other things while their
car is going at 100 km/h on Highway 401? No. Please say no! Now for
seat configuration! While I was recording the video, I had now idea
whether this thing was a 5-seater or 4-seater, but thought that it
may have been 5-seater for some reason, only to learn later that this
is a 4-seater... Deal breaker? No, but a little disappointing. But
one can hope that they'll offer a 5-seater variant. And oh, a little
more ground clearance would be nice. The Audi e-tron Quattro has good
clearance for a crossover, so they could take a cue from that
competitor. Finally, if there's something that I really need to do
better next time is READ
like I know how to FLIPPING
READ! GOSSSSSHHHHHH! Editing
was so painful because of frequent errors and seemingly endless
slip-ups.... Good grief! Have I not been speaking English for 20+
years?! Jeepers peepers man! I really think that reading over the
text once or twice probably would've have helped significantly, but
the problem is just laziness sometimes
oftentimes. Still, one should be able to read their native language
out loud with relative ease and rare mistakes, or was I just being
too hasty and hard on myself? Who knows! All I hope for is to have
less editing to do the next time I shoot another reading
& commentary video, which is going be soon! Can't wait to see the
Mercedes-Benz EQ on Canadian shores!
Edit:
In regards to the ground clearance remarks, I actually took another
look at the car and it doesn’t actually seem to be any lower or
higher than the Audi rival.
Seriously,
just say no to them. Do not entertain the idea. They can say all they
want that it's not prostitution, but it is! Listen, by definition a
prostitute is someone who engages in sexual activity for money. When
you set yourself up to a sugar daddy, they're giving you money in
exchange for use of your vagina, mouth, butt or in some cases, all of
the above! They often like to say that it's different, simply because
there's a temporary “relationship” and “companionship”
involved, but you know what? It's just the industry trying to toss
sugar over a dirty blanket. That's all. Even the article that I read
in the video, later warns that if you're going to do this, that you
should treat it like a
job
and not expect it to turn into an on-going relationship! See? I'm not
the only one that sees the sugared up lies about the industry. At the
end of the day, whether you want to make good or bad decisions such
as this, there will be results for your actions. Choose: good results
or bad results? People that often use sugar daddies for tuition have
to try hard to had their identity in order to avoid risks with
employment, because they know deep down that it's a degrading,
desperate move. As mentioned in the article and some of my
commentary, use other alternatives. Times are hard, money can be
scarce, but you'll be surprised at the number of wonderful, better
options available when you
actually make an effort to seek them out! Seek them! Ask,
seek, knock.
(Sure
some of you might get that reference). Oh yeah, and in before someone
potentially comes here to yell at me for yelling at only the girls
doing this, I do mention guys in the video doing it too, so I'll
mention it here too: University & College boys, do not turn to a
sugar mommy just to fund your schooling! It's not funny and sounds
like a horribly degrading idea. Be a man and seek out the alternative
options that will leave you feeling proud and confident!
Lame
Fun Fact: I originally titled this “Pastry
Push: Feeding The Floor Gengar Knockoff LOL!”
but later tossed “dwelling” into the title since the sweet
toothed creature spends the game time in the floor. Pastry Push is a
puzzle game with many different levels and three dessert worlds. You
must push the dessert across the floor into Moko, the Gengar
knockoff's mouth, by swiping north, east, south or west across your
screen in as little swipes as possible. You must also avoid obstacles
like torches, trap doors and such. While it is a decent game, with
great graphics, frame rates, music and gameplay, I unfortunately
played the game like such a frustrating idiot in some levels. Granted
that I'm not really that into puzzle games, as I prefer adventurous
platformers, or racing games like Asphalt 8, that's still no excuse
to play poorly. Then again, there's been a lot of gameplay videos of
mine that are full of facepalm worthy moments, so it's nothing
surprising. I just use the excuse that I'm just “demoing” or
“showing the game” to get away with it. Has it worked? Nobody
notices or cares, so I'll say yes. Besides, you're probably not ever
going to read this, so I could even say that I'm dating an Aboriginal
Antartican Glacial woman, and you'd never
know!
Ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke
ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke ke!
I've
contemplated on recording this game for quite some time, and now I've
finally done it. Just as the title and video description will tell
you, I run while making lots of silly, cheesy, rude remarks about the
characters and such. I'm not going to bother explaining Subway
Surfers here, because it's widely recognized as one of the most
popular endless runners. In the video I'm running in a dated version,
from I believe 2016, Tokyo. Uh, I don't really know what else to say,
admittedly – actually I do! This endless runner is very popular
because it's one of the best runners around, that's why! I know I
enjoyed it a lot, more so than Temple Run! Why? I just love the
colourful graphics, gameplay, characters and international tracks.
Well, I guess the tracks part might be considered bad for some,
because you only get to play in different worlds when they issue the
change through an update. Fresh? A drawback? Hindrance? Cool? Who
knows, but all I know is that is doesn't bother me that much, though
I guess it would be better if you could play on various tracks
whenever you want, while they could still create new tracks that
could be issued through updates. Still a very fun game either way.
Will probably play again in the future on a different track. Will I
bother to unlock new characters this time, or will I continue to
insult them about how they're ugly, stink, sore, loserish,
__________? We'll just have to find out the next time! LOL!
It
was a “mild” winter day when I decided to drop by this place to
film it, but man oh man, was it foggy! Wow! I was a little concerned
about the fog making the video blurry, but it turns out the bigger
problem was the damn shakiness! Sheesh! I really should have done a
better job at keeping the camera steady! Part of the problem was that
because visibility was poor, I didn't hold the camera in front of my
face as I should, to not only pay better attention to what was being
captured, but to also help the stability issue. The next time,
man..... So! The school itself is a pretty large building that has a
lot of corners and paths that made the walk around very interesting.
The atmospheric fog also gave it very eerie, yet interesting vibe to
it, especially when I stood at the track and a gate near some ravine.
While the walk around was fun and all, there was something that made
things extremely frustrating: a
shut off! Yep,
that's right! The little black devil decided to shut off after
recording for 14 minutes, and even though it showed the “shutting
off
device”
it
did not save the video like how it normally should when that message
shows!
What treachery! I wanted to just bash and snap the thing when it did
that, but I just resorted to swapping the battery and walking around
again
to recapture the video. Success!
I
was able to do a complete walk around and safely complete the video.
Whew! A bit of a crazy, desperate move, but I REALLY
did not feel like dealing with BlackBerry bulldoo, especially since
the incident at Sinclair, so I just grudgingly made the move. Oddly
enough, I did try the same thing initially at Sinclair, but it
failed, likely because I haven't figured out the secret with
temperatures, contacts and other bits. Needless to say, I'm glad I
was able to capture West Hill again, but it would have been so much
better if I didn't have to redo it in the first place! I was able to
pull the old, original, 14 minute video off of the phone, but it of
course cannot read because it claims that the file is “corrupted or
missing codecs”. Some day, I mean it that I'm going to get that
issue solved once and for all, and restore all “dead”
videos
I captured since 2017. In fact, I hope to actively look into this
week. Last time, I did mention something about how I searched and
found that the solution to the problem was mostly cost prohibitive
software. This time, I'm going to look beyond money grabbing software
and see if I can discover a solution to this excruciating
problem!
I know, some might say “Just stop using that piece of _____
already, and buy a darn new proper camera!” First thing's first, a
proper camcorder is even more expensive then a legitimate MP4 fixer,
and remember: the same can happen with camcorders too, so it's
important to learn how to deal with a problem, and not just run away
from it and hope it never occurs again.
