Things are looking up, my friends, acquaintances, search engines / indexers, and lurkers.
Guitar Hero, it would seem, has the potential to slowly make the world a better place. Right in front of me, sits Guitar Hero I, II, a PS2, and a guitar controller, all courtesy of The Other Will Who Rides Bikes And Works With Computers™, who is currently biking from Ireland to Greece. But I digress.
Bea’s Mom infected us with Wii-itis – primarily through the basic Sports Package and Guitar Hero III – having a wireless rig is super nice. Bea in short order had rolled through the easy level, mastering pretty much everything that she came across. Except Slayer. It would appear that ‘Raining Blood’ is a weakness of hers, at least in the video gaming world.
I think around that time, I also got an instant message from her, which went something along these lines:
Bea: I think I like Venom.
As you can imagine, I was caught off-guard. Turns out she was referring to was the opening / title track from their album Resurrection. Can’t say I blame her.
Well, now that the entertainment center is taking form, we dusted off the neglected PS2 and fired up Guitar Hero II. The other Will is some sort of GH freak, and has unlocked everything, so we can just go pick out any song in the whole game to play, including my favorite song on the game, Thunderhorse by Dethklok. They also have Strong Bad singing Trogdor – it’s hard.
Apparently, it was stuck in her head all day. And while dropping new/more music into her iPod last night, she included Slayer.
All of it.
Fast forward to this morning (well, rewind now. shutup.):
Bea: slayer’s not killing me
Bea: i like spill the blood
I would have typed back \m/, but it’s hard to type when you’re actually throwin’ up the horns. Apparently she blogged about this already this morning. Typing using only your index and pinky fingers due to excessive horn throwing is difficult.
And in other metal-related news, another friend of mine appears to be in a metal mood. She though, is in more of the cookie-monster mode. Someone’s gonna be getting a thumbdrive full of Nile, Dethklok, and other sources of complete and utter destruction.
