yes, I really am that bad
For what little it is worth, I am much better with a sword.

finish the fight
Okay, call me a geek because I am, but I have a date with my expensive electronics.
Halo and the good folks of team FTG kept me sane on Monday nights for nearly a year and a half. It was a chance to kick back, relax, and revel in carefully orchestrated carnage with full surround-sound and a few carefully selected friends. It was glorious fun, and I have missed them and their banter and companionship ever since I got too busy to play a lot of videogames, and then fell behind a firewall prohibiting such access. Someday I'll live in the real world again, and someday we'll fight the good fight together again.
I hope to be fully prepared for that day.

little victories
Okay -
So maybe it isn't the kind of accomplishment I would really like to be crowing about, but by Nyarlathotep and Levi's jeans, I have finally beaten every last level of the original "Halo" on Legendary, including that gawdawful infernal hangar-bay just inside the Truth and Reconciliation. I do not suppose it makes me some sort of gaming god, but through persistence and the slick resurrection of my thumb, I have vanquished and conquered - thereby earning my geek spurs.
I may now purchase the no-longer available "Legendary" t-shirt from bungie with its crossed swords and skull in good faith, and you may refer to me as "Sir" Andrew.
Heh.
I'm going running now so I can do the happy dance on the move.
