You know the whole "asari stir-fry" and "salarian curry" just has me imagining that instead of alien takes on earth classics that it's the aliens are ingredients in said dishes!

:sick:


Kai Leng totally digs salarian curry.  And it just struck how weird it is that the novel is so preoccupied with his culinary habits.

Kai Leng breaks into Anderson's apartment and eats his cereal. It's basically his way marking his territory. One step above urine.



Wha!?

 
I still refuse to believe this cereal thing is real. Who in their right mind would've ever thought that was a good idea. It's too damn stupid to be real.

One last pitch on the Amazon UK front. Please consider writing your own review. If that's too much trouble, do pop over and thumb up the reviews that are up now. Remember, anyone with an Amazon account from any country should be able to log in and do so.

Rate me! Rate me!

Last time throwing to the UK. I'm going to switch over to .com and .ca as soon as they let me in.

 Hey Joe, just saw what you posted on the Gabby and Ken thread.  I can't wait to see how you adapt this to the fic.  :)

Apparently Dietz and everyone who edited it.

I'm curious, has anyone from Bioware commented yet on the metric ton of errors in Mass Effect: Deception?

I'd suggest next time handing it to a writer who has an actual interest in the franchise.

So, who's supervising the script for the movie?

Edit: Wait, misread.  It will probably be Casey Hudson and other members of the Bioware team.  I hope they do better with that than they did with this.

Not yet, but we're rapidly approaching the official release, so it's only a matter of time.

I freaking hate Kahlee Sanders enough in the Karpayshian novels, and in this she's even more insufferable. I really hope Mass Effect 3 gives me the chance to kill her slow.

I'm thinking of writing the first part in Dietz's style, then Kenneth wakes up in a cold sweat! :lol:

I submitted the Kotaku article on N4G to gain more attention. If you're familiar with N4G, it's in pending right now.

Four score and seven seconds ago our developers brought forth on this internet, a new book, conceived in crayon, and dedicated to the position that all consumers are created fools.

Now we are engaged in a great backlash, testing whether that book, or any book so error prone and so clumsy, can long endure. We are met on a great internet battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that internet, as a final resting place for the lore and characters who gave their lives that we might live through them. It is altogether fitting and proper we should do this.

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in the forum, we shall fight on the blogs and journals, we shall fight with growing disgust and growing shame in the air, we shall fight whatever the cost may be ($7.99), we shall fight with our wallets, we shall fight with our words, we shall fight with our meme's and alongside cereal killers, we shall fight on the wiki;

We shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not believe for a moment, this thread or a large part of it were subjugated and deleted, then our posters beyond the URL, armed and guarded by the sane of mind everywhere, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New Book, with all its sense and lore, stops forth to relieve the weak and the replacement of the old.

I have a dream that one day we shall not know of sharpened toothbrushes and the books will live true to the meaning of its creed: "We hold this lore to be self-evident, that all characters are maintained equally"

That would be great!  I'll have to come up with a better name for my Fanfiction.net account so I can finally review the fic.  Unofficially, it has been fabulous.  I've LOL at every chapter. :)

This is brilliant!  Nice use of the (modified) Gettysberg Address.
