Gamer-scores and Wife-points

I used to play lots of N64 when I was in college. I was pretty good at Mario Kart and Mario 64 and Wetrix and Bust A Move. Quite enjoyed them too. I was never much good at the shoot 'em ups though. I could never get the hang of the way they worked: couldn't find my way around; couldn't move in a straight line, or around a corner, or through a door, as required; couldn't aim; couldn't shoot; certainly couldn't select, prime and fire a weapon under pressure...

Anyway. I don't play anymore. I skipped the whole PS2 thing and it looked like I was going to similarly avoid Wii and x360.

Until Conor got Kororinpa (Wii) and Hexec (x360). Not that I'm proving a threat to anyone's gamer score or anything, but how much fun are these games??? It's a shoddy truth, but these days I can't wait for the baby to go for his nap, so's I can spend an hour or two playing. My biggest daily dilemma is now which game to play: should I spend an hour on each? Or play them on alternate days? What if the baby wakes up early and I miss out?

Apparently, I was getting a lot of wife-points from Conor's mates for letting him play so much. Does my new-found obsession increase these points or nullify them? Do I care? I'm having too much fun!

QuizFarm revisited

Just coz it's Friday night and Con's busy playing with his x360 (on-line live - God bless brodband!), I went to play on QuizFarm.com
'Which religion is right for you?' caught my attention first. Apparently, I ought to be a Satanist!

You scored as Satanism. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Satanism! Before you scream, do a bit of research on it. To be a Satanist, you don't actually have to believe in Satan. Satanism generally focuses upon the spiritual advancement of the self, rather than upon submission to a deity or a set of moral codes. Do some research if you immediately think of the satanic cult stereotype. Your beliefs may also resemble those of earth-based religions such as paganism. Satanism 79% agnosticism 75% Buddhism 75% Islam 63% Hinduism 63% Paganism 54% atheism 46% Christianity 42% Judaism 42% Which religion is the right one for you?

Coming as a bit of a surprise to me, I discover that I'm a High School Geek. I didn't think my Nerd credentials rated so highly. Also, I found this quiz a little tricky - should I have answered as if I were still in school, or as if I were in college or as I am now? I made a call and answered as me now - but there were definitely a few throwback questions...

I tried a couple of other ones too: I'm a Fire Demon; I'm Monica from Friends; and my inner animal is a monkey.
