I've figured something out.

I've figured something out.
I actually am learning.  I am currently cognitively rewiring my brain to think on a deeper psychological spectrum.  All because of one phrase.  "Have a weekend."  First uttered to me by my AP language teacher, I took about six hours out of my day excluding math class which I still was subliminally questioning how the phrase meant when I finally stepped back into my AP language classroom today.  It is well known to most teenagers my age have a cognitive sense that the weekend means a number of good things happening for them.  Firstly, they are not required on any standpoint to wake up early.  Secondly, the weekend is amazingly unpredictable to the point where anything can happen and anything else becomes possible.  Thirdly, the only possible way to have a bad weekend is if there is a drastic change in activity that leaves someone in the family either deceased or heartbroken in some way shape or form.  Even so, the event is still disregarded for the fact that any troubles that  may or may not have occurred over the weekend can be disregarded in lieu of attempting even in some minuscule scale to improve your weekend.  This is where the "bright side" comes into play.  A relative you were very close to passed away?  Fine, at least you get to visit all of the relatives you may or may not have known you have.  Your boyfriend/girlfriend/partner broke up with you?  No problem, that just means you're free from them.  You're single again, go out to dinner with your friends and have fun.  All of this effort in order to come back to school on Monday after the weekend is through and say to all of your friends that you 'had a good weekend'.  That's another thing, the fact that my AP language teacher only said "have a weekend" and left out the adjective that acted as a sentence modifier simply suggested an arbitrary meaning to the subject of the sentence.  The subject being the student's weekend.  The arbitrary meaning that goes along with the signifier of the student when it comes to the subliminal meaning that accompanies the term "weekend" can be counted alongside the basic of pleasure that assist the inherent goodness that comes along with the arbitrary meaning of the word "weekend."  It's a metaphoric arbitrary meaning passed along into one simple phrase that saves a lot of air.  Simply by leaving out the word "good".  Your weekend doesn't need to be good, it just turns out that way...
What the hell just happened?
P.S. If you're wondering what neuroplasticity is.  It is basically the brain's ability to rewire itself for different cognitive function.  The brain has a limited amount of neurons to connect to.  And after extended disuse, the neurons in that disused section begins to fade, those neurons left with nothing better to do find something else that is enduring extended use in order to better lengthen the function of the section of the brain with the most use, making it stronger and therefore; more powerful.  Video Games, for instance, strengthen the brain's attention to subtle details, decrypting stories inside stories in order to manipulate false narratives or at least narratives some of us would believe to be true, or solving puzzles, as well as building basic motor reflex.

As you know, the DLC for Bioshock: Infinite Burial at Sea part 2 debuted a few days ago.  Now, with this, I'm wondering how I could F up Cooper's mindset.  Two Coopers.  Maybe if he wanted to see all the different eventualities.  Maybe he wanted to know everything, like Colt does.  Maybe he wanted another chance at something.  Maybe there's a universe out there where I'm Cooper and I'm watching Colt's creator write this blog post.  Maybe you're Cooper watching me write about what Colt could do to you.  Maybe I'm Booker.  Maybe I'm Bentley.  Maybe I'm Neyla.  Maybe I'm Mason.  Maybe I'm nothing.  Maybe...  Maybe my nose is bleeding.  Which one of me died this time?  Good story?  What do you think?

Dying 2D animation

Let us set the way back machine for about the year 2006 here in America.  CN was doing their road trip small themed layout where colorful characters like Scooby and the gang rolling around the town in their blue van as they pull up next to Johnny Bravo.  They begin casually conversing before challenging each other to a race,  the Mystery machine stalls out as Johnny drives away.  And then the Pokemon Movie featuring the cool Lucario comes back on.  I was 8 at the time and hanging out with my sister and our two friends.  We were sitting in their house watching this, we loved Pokemon at the time.  Among other things.  Where we loved Mechassault, Metal Arms, Tony Hawk, Guitar Hero, and Sonic.  (More Shadow than anything but you get the point.)  It was a good age, but why did I mention Scooby Doo, Johnny Bravo and Pokemon?  Because they were all 2D animation.  The pinnacle of modern entertainment at the time.  No computers backing these things.  This was timeless hand-drawn animation.  But the problem is that they are all part of a fading art.  That's right.  2D animation is suffering a slow and painful life-support induced comma.  They are practically clinically dead.  While the heroine, LSD, crack/cocaine, and Crystal Meth of our generation are taking center stage on our children's TV screens.  I'm talking about the annoying shows that our fat American children love today.  I'm talking about things like Regular Show, Uncle Grandpa, The Amazing World of Gumball, MAD (Which I somewhat like for a little while until I read the damned magazine and found out that CN had totally ruined their reputation).  The Annoying Orange (Which I unsubscribe to Danobe shortly after they went to TV.)  Teen Titans GO (Which, let's all admit; is just sad.)  and the ever popular Adventure Time.  Let me ask you something my early 00s children.  do any of you remember just plain Teen Titans?  I mean does anyone remember Slade Wilson?  One of Robin's most dangerous enemies?  He was actually, in a way; kind of cool.  He's like the Darth Vader of the DC universe.  He's got a sort of style to his torture to Robin.  It was cool and much like an anime series, which actually looked pretty good.  Now, The Annoying Orange, is a totally different story.  Where Danobe would take his face and put it on the faces of fruit.  For the longest time, I really liked the Annoying Orange when it was on YouTube.  Danobe announced his launch on CN in the summer of 2012 and I was excited for him.  But then I saw what his show was going to be like.  I thought to myself: This isn't the Danobe I remember.  What happened to the sitting in the kitchen, making bad jokes and his intoxicating laugh?  I can tell you right now that it left with him leaving the Internet.  I never watched another Danobe video after that.  Its just become sad.  Now onto more recent titles.  Shows like Gumball, Uncle Grandpa, Regular show, and Adventure Time were icons to a lot of things.  Regular show even has its own meme.  But the thing is, they're leaving the solid background of good, action filled and some comedic entertainment for cheaply animated shows and sleazy humor.  The shows I've seen nowadays have been plain disgusting.  Especially Uncle Grandpa and Gumball.  With terrible photo-real 2D animation and blend of strange claymation and box and board backgrounds.  Everything just looked like a model 2D world where they had random creatures built into it.  With a giant harry beast with his butt cheeks sticking out.  The fat father who seemed obsessed in walking around in his underwear and had his moobs flashing everyone.  And not to mention a banana who threw off his peeling and was swinging it in the air.  In Uncle Grandpa, it's a show about a strange man who looks like a pedophile wearing a lederhosen.  He does toe wrestling with a buff pizza wearing sunglasses.  If this doesn't spell 'Fueled by LSD' I don't know what does.  But why is Regular Show up here?  Well, because they all sound immature.  The gumball headed guy sounds like a whiny little bitch, but Rigby and Mordecai sound high 24 hours a day.  It's like Cartoon Network nowadays is fueled on drugs.  This is why the current lineup of CN shows has become the Cartel of children's Television.

just to let you know meine Freunde

Just to let all my page viewers know that those of you who aren't of the German sort, that my new story Cooper...Ich heisse Mason will have Colt's English translation in parenthesis next to his speech.  I will continue to do this as I work on the story.  I haven't completely refined all of the details, but I'm sure when all of it is said and done, that Colt will be speaking mostly German.  By the way.  Two reminders.  First, Castle Wolfenstein: The New Order is coming out 2014.  And the Sly Cooper movie will be debuting in theaters by 2016.  Danke, meine Freunde.

You're probably thinking 'how does this verse of his work?'

I've explained all of these wonderful stories to you and I feel that no one is getting anything from it.  Allow me to explain

Part 1- The multiverse theory
The theory states that there is an infinite number of universes coexisting on parallel dimensional planes.  In each universe the reality is different from our own, sometimes minimally sometimes quite radically.  In other words, every possible eventuality exists. 
Part 2- It so begins
I feel that the influences that a kid has seen thought his childhood will keep those with him the rest of his/her life.  For my example, when I was a wee lad, I had no friends...Well no real friends to speak of.  My friends included Mario, Luigi, Samus, Glitch, and Captain Sirrus from Mechassault.  Those were my friends, I always had them with me.  It's like the reason people like me would go to a comicon or game convention.  As they were my child life heroes then I still feel as if I look up to them.
Part 3- Mario
I began playing video games on my dad's N64 when I was just 4.  Billy Ray and Diamond would always beat me in Mario Kart.  I as well played on my gameboy color, which was the apple of my gaming eye.  Being able to play Super Mario Deluxe Mobile was wonderful for me.  I then received a gameboy advance SP when I was six.  My sister had one and I was always jealous that I couldn't play super mario world on my gameboy. 
Part 4- Samus
As soon as I got my Advance SP, I was playing metroid fusion nostop.  It was my favorite game, however, I always got stuck in parts of it.  My parents paid attention to my love of this game and bought me a Gamecube when I was eight.  The first two games I got were Sonic mega collection, Sonic DX director's cut, Metroid Prime, and Star Fox Assault.  I could never get past the first boss in Metriod Prime, so I gave away, and so ends Metroid, and a transition, once I lost Metriod Fusion.  But not before adopting my first character, modeled after the SA-X.  SA-XDelta.
Part 5- Starfox
The most played game I ever had, until I gave it to my friend, as I could not best Apparoid infected Corneria.  I was disappointed by my lack of talent of that game, and gave it away.
Part 6- Metal Arms- Glitch in the System
My dad let me play on his original Xbox, this was one of my favorite multiplayer games growing up.  My friends would always try to come over and go toe to toe with me in my best game.  The only one who could beat me was Diamond.
Part 7- Spyhunter
Not the Original one, even though that was fun, I've been playing the Xbox spyhunter for years.  I've beaten the campaign about three times.  This game was one of the pinnacle of my childhood.
Part 8- MechAssault
Still, another multiplayer favorite for the original Xbox.  It took me long enough to beat the first one on easy, and I'm on Elite on MechAssault 2.  No one can best me at this game now.  The complex characters and storyline were everything I could ever want in a game.
Part 9- Halo
First FPS I ever played.  I was always born and bred console gamer.  Halo captured my need for a serious shooter.  Diamond still can best me at this.  Except when I'm tired.  I love SWAT as well.  Headshot...Headshot...Headshot.  The first mainstream shooter I ever played was Halo.  This love rained supreme for quite a while
Part 10-  Metroid Revisited
Nostalgia kicked in when I was twelve and I was curious about what games I used to play in the past.  Therefore, I revisited Metroid Fusion using YouTube.  I looked everywhere for it.  Until I got the Metroid Prime trilogy for Christmas.  I had doubts when I first played, but motion controls made the game so much easier.  I completed the campaign several times.  New influences led me to revisit old memories
Part 11-  Star Fox Revisited
Once again nostalgia had struck me in the head as I then looked up a let's play for Star Fox Assault.  Once again, I've felt myself like a child.  I could care less how it made me feel.  Believe it or not, people think Star Fox is pretty BA.  That made me feel so much better.  I am proud to call myself a nerd.  Normally, I despise F-bombs that are not included in songs on the interwebs but if you hate on the nerds.  Fickest du.  Yes I speak German.
Part 12- Naruto
The thing that got me started with fanfiction is that Diamond and I had found ourselves a Naruto craze.  Her and I were at constant war of whoever knew more about the particular genre.  My sister and her friends shunned me for always performing crossovers.  I could care less at this point.  I enjoy what I do.  I soon found I could never win the war with conventional means of just one verse, so I decided to put all of my strengths together.
Part 13- Putting the character together.
Colt Mason has come a long way.  First he started as SA-X Delta, second of the SA-X series.  He is perfectly aware of his potential and decided to destroy those who didn't and was chasing the SA-X original.  His sister was the SA-X Alpha, the main leader of the X parasite race.  This altered slightly when sonic came into the verse.  My friends and sister loved to role play.  I'd normally get killed several times.  I was quite frustrated with my failures so when Naruto entered the verse, I made some changes.  The name was Del-ti.  The character didn't last long, not more than three years.  The character became semi-human with a metal exoskeleton like a terminator.  The character quickly changed to Kikai Uchiha.  The name that was carried on my first post ever on this blog.  I have not written on that post in years.  It makes me wonder how much I've changed.  Now, I have a fully developed character.  He can change form depending on the universe he travels to.  In Sonic's zone, Colt Mason is a husky.  In Lylat, he's a husky.  In almost every other verse, he's human. 
Part 14- Allys to Colt
Colt has many friends over many battles.  Many include main protagonists of several of the games listed above.  Others include influences from certain YouTube channels.  As in Dreamscape Avenged and Real Life Battlefield.  I included lesser known YouTubers such as DooM49 and Kainon16, now Armegeddonkaossoul.  As well I included BaltisMC as an ally of mine.  As well in Dreamscape Avenged is famous gamer Pewdiepie.  Later on when I complete a chapter about Fatal Frame, I was planning on inserting Cry into the picture.  I figure that I include starting my horror or haunted games experiences and have the haunted games destroyed.
Part 15- Survival Horror games
When Slender made it's leap to meme hood, I was inducted into a new topic.  Normally I despise horror and haunts but this new idea of being scarred for fun was a new concept to me.  Until I figured out it wasn't.  I first watched an older season of my favorite YouTube show, Machinima's Ten FTW.  Back then Steve Here And Larson wern't hosting the show.  Some guy with either the creepiest voice I ever heard or a guy with a great auto tune did the show.  It was a Machinima Halloween special.  I remember the list like it was the back of my hand. 
Ten- The Condemned series
Nine- The Fear Series
Eight- The Aliens series
Seven- The Resident Evil Series
Six-Doom 3
Five-Clive Barker's: Undying
Four- Siren: Bloodcurse
Three-The Silent Hill series
Two- Dead Space
One- The fatal frame series
It made me a nervous wreck.
Part 16- Haunted games and consoles
I started to really get into the survival horror series so much that I began to go on Creepypasta.  At this point, I dropped the survival horror genre entirely.  More of a nervous wreck.  What! You want a list?  here it goes.
sonic.exe
Pokémon black bootleg
BEN DROWNED
The SCP foundation
Looking any of these up will make you a nervous wreck.  You will not sleep, your childhood will be ruined, that's when I decided to give Colt an M60E4 and a type-99 LMG and let him tear this S*** up.
Part 17- Defeating the fears
Allowing my now testosterone-filled character to run a rampage through the fears department of my mind, I can sleep much better now.  Colt and his team tore a new ass in my fears.  All it took was a Doomguy more.  As well as a BFG-9000.  Fears linger there somewhere, but I've soon gotten over them.
Part 18- Bioshock: Infinite
This game by 2K is now the centerpiece of Mason.  While military testing has torn out his organs and made him half of a machine, an old technology recovered from the depths of the oceans by Madame and Monsieur Lutiece allowed Colt this ability.  Sure, him and Elizabeth had crossed paths on the walks around the lightposts, and I'm sure there are others in the universe like us, but until then, Colt and Elizabeth are the only two in the multiverse.  This is also how he managed to reach Cooper.
Part 19- Sly Cooper
More recent this was discovered, Mason ventured to help the master thief in his journeys across the lands, assisting not only in heists but to help Cooper learn how to think rationally.  I know, pretty deep for Cooper, but he needed someone to mentally dissect him.  Contessa was too much of a bitch to do it and Clockwerk is dead.  It was up to Colt.  But Colt seeks in bringing out different sides of Cooper, seeing how prideful he is, he needs to inform him that he is not invulnerable.  A quote I've been planning to say to Cooper in Sly Cooper: GO was Colt informing Sly about the logic behind killing an enemy.  "Killing one person may save the lives of several others."
Part 20- Five Nights at Freddy's (DAMN IT!)
Just as I could sleep again, this brown animatronic bastard decided to ruin my sleeping schedule.  I'm still looking for a solution to this problem... Any suggestions men?
