This could have been the mission statement for Really Bad Eggs:
We’re a bunch of 30 something, profane, don’t-take-ourselves-too-seriously, smartasses who love to play videogames. We don’t spend 60 hours a week finding secret hiding places and shaving the trigger pull on our controllers because we have jobs, kids, and we have sex every once in a while (most of us are married, so it’s once in a long while). We don’t have a “Win or I’ll hang myself” attitude, but if you do something stupid, we will make fun of you (that’s just one service we offer, heckling for the pure sport of it). We don’t spend Mommy and Daddy’s money on our gaming, so we don’t waste our time on games that suck. If this sounds good to you, join us. If not, go play with the screaming, voice masked pre-pubescents.
But, it’s not. Rather, this is the mission statement for Geezer Gamers and, having read it, I have to ask myself if there is any reason to continue with my pathetic little clan instead of just assimilating into a larger group that is already in the headspace I want to occupy.
Besides, their website is way cooler than my Bungie.net page.
On another note, I’ve not been posting this week, due to school and massive demands on my bandwidth (curse you Bittorrent and all your… torrenty goodness) but fear not, both of you, I will be back online with a vengeance this weekend.
If I fix the garage door and mom says I can, that is.

Hey, come join us. We’ve got a hopping community of crusty “old” folks. One guy 62. Most of us in our 30′s and 40′s.

Now I just need more time to game!
