This past week has been a pretty nice week in my opinion. I was able to accomplish some things that I have been putting off for quite some time. Now I am just relaxing and enjoying my weekend. For those of you who don’t know me that well, my weekend is Wednesday and Thursday and Friday starts my work week.
On Friday, I went to work and had a pretty decent day. It started off nice and ended nice at work. I got home and I decided to fix my RC Truck. My RC truck is a TRAXXAS E-MAXX 3905 1/10th scale monster truck. This monster truck is pretty sweet. With a fully charge set of two 8.4 Volt batteries it can reach speeds of 30+ mph.
During the last time I took this truck out and raced with it after work back in early April, the chassis broke. I received a replacement chassis from TRAXXAS and I haven’t had the time to replace it.
Once I got home, I took the truck out and carefully removed all the parts from the chassis and put it back together. I had no left over screws and everything worked well. I charged my batteries, made sure the motors ran, checked the wheels, suspension and other parts and I went to bed.
The next day, I went to work and had another decent day. Everything was fine, I had a 7pm lunch but things happen. I did what I needed to do and I left at 1 pm. When I clocked out DAMONSTA and I raced our RC Trucks around in the parking lot at work. I wound up getting about an hour of play time with my 2 large Batteries. After the batteries discharge to about 20 percent left, I took them out of the truck and we left to go to our homes.
On Sunday, I just chilled for a bit. Around 4:00 pm I picked hung out with Moroii. I know what your thinking, “Isn’t Moroii in Florida?” Yes and no. He had to come back up to finish taking the rest of their belongings and to Get his mother so they can drive down. He was up and we hung out for a while. We played some Magic the Gathering, and we Watched LUPIN the 3rd Strange Psychokensis Strategey. We had a good time. And it was nice to be able to hang out for a while.
Overall, Monday and Tuesday was fine. I did have some crazy calls come in but that is to be expected from people. I did what I Needed to do and I left like normal. I started at 2pm and I left at 1 am. Plain and simple, I just took care of business.
Today was fine until about 40 minutes ago. I was working on tuning the suspension on my RC Truck. I was able to raise it up a bit and it looks a bit better. I couldn’t find the suspension Kit so I could make it stiffer but that can wait since it runs good for now. As I was making the adjustments, I found out that the rear right bulk head was damaged. I have the screws but I need to replace the actual bulk head so that it runs the way it is supposed to. Tomorrow (meaning later today) I will go to the hobby shop to pick up the parts. It shouldn’t run me that much money. On average it costs about 10 bucks. That won’t break the bank.
Now spending 10 bucks isn’t going to make me mad. It is what happened next that made me mad. I finished working on the suspension. I was going to recalibrate the steering and radio to the Electronic Speed Controller of my truck. I turned on the radio and I placed my first 8.2 Volt 3000 Milliamp battery into the truck and hooked it up properly to the speed controller. I did the same to the second 8.2 Volt 3000 Milliamp battery and to my surprise the ESC didn’t want to work. Now I checked the connections to find that the first battery I put in was starting to SIZZLE. I quickly unhooked the connections, the Battery was hot. Once I took it out of the truck, that battery started to spew SMOKE. I placed the battery in a bowl and proceeded to place water to neutralize any battery acid and placed the battery outside to see the battery bubbling and making weird noise.
I was like Damn it. What the hell just happened? So I tried to hook another known good battery to that first terminal and that battery got extremely hot so I put it outside with the other battery and not in the water but outside to cool. I thought this is odd. I took 2 smaller 7.4 Volt 1800 Milliamp batteries and it did the same thing, but this time I was smart enough to pull the batteries out before any damage started to happen.
Now, I disconnected the speed controller from the motors and used the 7.2Volt battery to check the motors. They both worked without any problems. So this is telling me that the speed controller fried for no apparent reason. Looks like my luck sucks at this point in time. So I wrote TRAXXAS and email and I am now waiting for a response.
So, you can see why I am pissed off. That ESC is about 160 bucks alone. I don’t have the money to replace it. Let alone get new batteries. So I will see what they have to say that speed controller. Now, this truck is less than a year old. I think there is a warranty on their products so I have to see what they have to say.
TRAXXAS already helped me get a replacement chassis when it broke for no reason. So Hopefully they will deliver and help me too with this because, that speed controller shouldn’t of died within 15-20 runs like that, let alone blow up a battery and possibly damage another battery. I guess we shall see what will happen.
Here is the math If I need to replace these parts
$160.00 New ESC
$079.00 Battery
+$079.00 Battery
_________________
318.00 Total
That is a lot of clams to fix this truck. I mean the whole truck cost me about 400 bucks. If I am going to spend 320 bucks on a new esc and batteries I should buy a new one and keep this one for parts. I guess I need to wait and see.
Now I am tired. I need some sleep. I am going to go to bed. Goodnight all.
This weekend sucked major balls. Friday wasn’t that bad. Went to work, Had a 5 pm lunch. actually didn’t have any issue with people on the phones and what not. Saturday was hell. Woke up normal time. Got dressed, ate breakfast. Packed my lunch and got ready for work. I grabbed my stuff and proceeded to car. Loaded the car and started driving to work. It was a raining and I was a bit early when I left so I spoke with Lord Moroii for a bit on my phone using my hands free head set. Just before I got on the highway moroii and I ended the call and I proceeded driving west bound on Interstate 84. About 25 minutes later I was on the exit ramp 4e going onto 17m. while on the exit ramp people started applying their breaks. I applied my breaks and I couldn’t stop. My Car started to skid and started to veer to the left. CRASH. I was thrown toward the steering wheel and I stopped.
I was panicking. I got out the car to see if everyone was alright. we drove our cars off the exit ramp and proceeded to go into a Mobil on the Run Gas station. The cops were called. State trooper came over. Did his Investigation. Blamed it on the weather and went about our business. I called in to work. I couldn’t go in. I was very distraught and what not. Waited for my mom to arrive where we proceeded to wait 4 hours for a tow. The tow didn’t arrive so I drove my moms car and she drove my car back home. We called the insurance company only to find out my car didn’t have collision on it. FUCK is what I said and what not. My mom didn’t know that the insurance wasn’t fully updated when we got my Impala. So basically, my car is fucked and his car will be covered by the the insurance.

I wound up locking myself in my room just being quiet and blah for the rest of the night. Being depressed I bought a bunch of food at the local corner store and just proceed to have a fat kid moment.
Well I guess shit happens. So now I have to figure out what I am going to do about my car.
Time for me to go. its dinner time.
Hey everyone:
Naota here with another personal blog entry. I haven’t written a blog of this nature in quite time and I thought it was long over due. So I now write some random thoughts and possible items that frosts my muffin. No I don’t care if anyone reads this blog but I need to vent some steam off so I am writing it down. If I get any legit comments and concerns great, its a plus, if not oh la-ti-da well. Shit happens.
Lately, I have been down. Not like sitting down or laying down, or getting down and boogie. I mean just down. feeling sad and depressed. I know depression is serious and what not, but I find writing down my emotions online in my own little world do help and that is what I am currently doing right now.
Last week I finished watching the anime series Shuffle. The series is a great series. It has a great Deal of comedy, a good story line, some standard predictable moments and a decent ending. While watching the Shuffle I was paying attention to some of the dialogue that the characters were saying. After listening to the dialogue and replaying it a couple of times I had to agreed to what the dialogue was.
In the series the main character makes a startling epiphany in which he realised his major flaw. His flaw was making everyone around him happy. While he tried doing it, he was blind to what was going on. He was blind to see that he was hurting his friends as well as himself. He stated something that I think was pretty good and hold true. “I try to make everyone happy. In doing so I hurt the ones I love as well as myself. I need to make myself happy for once.”\
That was the plain gist of what the main character in shuffle was conveying. After watching that scene, I stopped the series at the point and I started to think. Now mos of you know that when i start to think, I start to get in trouble mentally and I think of crazy and stupid things that can potentially get me in trouble.
While analysing the meaning that the main character was conveying, it really clicked to me. It reminded me of how I am. I guess what he said was true. I feel like that is what is happening to me. I try to make everyone happy. Make them laugh and have fun and what not and I wind up making them happy or enjoy the company and what not and I myself is put to the back burner. Basically, I am not happy. I make everyone happy but my happiness is not there.
Now I know what your saying, Naota, you look like your always happy. You crack those jokes, you laugh, you hang out with your friends, you seem to be doing okay. But, now in reality, it is much different. I am a man who wears many masks. Facades. I put on many facades to indicate different moods.
When I am with friends I have one façade. When I am with co-workers or customers there is another façade. Another for family, and others for different occasions.
Now you may look at me and say you look happy, you look like your enjoying your time. In most cases, I am having fun, I am enjoying my time. But deep down inside, I am not happy. No, not at happy. It eludes me. It runs away like a runnaway train Its like the lyrics to Soul Asylum’s song Runaway Track.
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turningSo tired that I couldn’t even sleep
So many secrets I couldn’t keep
Promised myself I wouldn’t weep
One more promise I couldn’t keepIt seems no one can help me now
I’m in too deep
There’s no way out
This time I have really led myself astrayCHORUS
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I’m neither here no thereCan you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life’s mystery seems so fadedI can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin’ in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway trainEverything is cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don’t believe itCHORUS
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin’ at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the painRunaway train never comin’ back
Runaway train tearin’ up the track
Runaway train burnin’ in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same
With that Said and done. It makes sense on what was conveyed on that anime series. I am sad. I am not happy. In fact I am actually empty inside. Why do you think I work on so many projects I work on? I work on HV Anime, – Echelon Computers, Computer repair, Networking, RC Cars, and other projects. I do it to keep my mind active and Not to think on the bad things. Like the things that I am missing and what not.
Now For the most part I am depressed cause I don’t have a girlfriend. I am longing for love and affection. That is different than the attention and fun i get with friendships but it doesn’t complete me. I am not fully whole. there is a piece of me missing in which I am trying to fulfil.
When I go out and see other people in a relationship. I cringe. I look at them and I think, That is what I want. Sometimes it makes me mad. Mad like WHEN WILL IT BE MY TURN. Other Times I will be like Get the fuck away from me, I don’t want to see it. At that point in time, I get sad and I don’t talk. I kind of space out and become quiet.
That is when I think. WHY oh Why am I forsaken like this. When Will it be my turn to be happy. I want to be happy. I don’t want to be depressed. It sucks balls.
Now I have tried looking for a girlfriend, I have tried not looking, I done almost everything. Still no luck. Now I Know things work out in mysterious ways. But I get mad and sad where I just go and sit by myself and become self loathing and even more depressed.
Like right now when I am writing this, I am struggling to come up with words to write my emotions down on an electronic media. But It does feel better to get this out off my chest. Perhaps I can get a better nights sleep now without any interruption of bad dreams and my mind wandering.
I guess I will have to see if I can Aim to make myself happy. But I cannot guarantee anything at this point in time. But I guess only time will tell.
Another Item that is making me depressed is that a good buddy of mine is moving away. Lord Moroii is moving down to the east coast of florida. Yes Florida. 1250+ miles away from where he is now. That fucking sucks major balls. It will suck not being able to hang out with him. Play card games, Video Games, Drink Alcohol and just enjoy life with.
I have given my express and views about his situation. Hell I have given him my opinions about him moving away and tried my fucking hardest to persuade him to stay. I have offered him the opportunity to stay at my house. There is plenty of room and he could stay here close to his good friend and family and still have a place to stay.
Now his decision is final. I still feel bad that he is moving and I couldn’t of persuaded him to stay but I will have to use my own cliché. “You have to do what you have to do.” He will be missed but I know where he will be, I will do my best to visit so have fun with him and our other friends. But It won’t be the same when he leaves here.
Our clique will have an empty hole in it. But I guess that would be inevitable since he is moving. I hope he moves back up here because I know this is hurting at least 5 people up here with him moving out of state.
But there is one thing I can assure you, We will keep in touch with Him and I know I will make it an effort to go down and visit him on some of my vacation time from work.
Now with that said and done I have yakked my mouth off too much. now it is 1500 words and this so far is my longest post. I hope this sheds some light on when you look at me and ask if things are alright and I give a smirk and nod yes. It just means that there is allot on my mind and I am not going to talk about it.
It is now 1:44 am, I am going to finish setting this post up and go to bed. I have work tomorrow and I am not really looking forward to it. But I need the money. The bills don’t pay themselves. And that may be another possible blog entry. Who knows. I guess we shall see.
Naota: out…
Here is another exciting episode of What Frosts My Muffin.
Today there will be another disclaimer like normal but it has to be done. I foresee a lot of obscene language that will not be suitable for children under the age of 30. But Here I GO
WARNING!
CONTAINS LANGUAGE NOT SUITABLE FOR PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 30.
You have been warned.
Today, My post will be a counter email that has been sent to me on facebook. The person who sent me the message is a little Retarded Crybaby who can’t grow the fuck up. His name (and I am not going to even hide it) is Aaron Michael Falk or Aaron Hall from Olivebridge, NY This dirty little used douche bag has been a thorn in my side since I attended college. He hates me, Despises me, overall doesn’t like me that much.
Here is what I received from him:
Dude stop putting stuff on the improv wall and GROW THE FUCK UP you smelly overweight asshole…no one likes you and no one cares that you had sex and the only reason you brag about it is because you know it’ll never happen again….now keep your big dirty mouth shut…no one cares about your sex life and no one cares you’re moving to alaska
Lets break this down a bit.
Stop Putting stuff on the improve wall and GROW THE FUCK UP you smelly over weight asshole.
- * First of all. I haven’t been a member of the god damn improve club since I graduated. As for growing the fuck up, I am more grown up than you will ever be you bloody cunt rag of jenical. You are jelouse that I got better grades than you in classes, Graduated well before you in school and not to mention Had more freiends in school than you ever had. You little retarded cry baby from the shit hole of a horses anus. Why don’t you stop crying and take what life has to give you up your BACK STREET BOY LOVING GAY RECTUM. I HOPE your asshole explosed with ELECTROBUZZ POKEMON SEAMAN.
- Second of call I may be overweight but I am more liked than you. As for the smelly part. You take the cake. You and your IBS asshole. Don’t you know that Your asshole is the leading cause of GLOBAL Warming. SO why don’t you shove a fucking cork up your rotton smelly little asshole and blow up in your own fecal matter because that way we cal live a better life
no one likes you and no one cares that you had sex and the only reason you brag about it is because you know it’ll never happen again….now keep your big dirty mouth shut…no one cares about your sex life and no one cares you’re moving to alaska
- Again, Nobody liking me that is just plain absurd. Many people like me. I have friends who care enough for me. Friends who are pure and caring in the sense of friends. They are more like family to me. Now you on the other hand the only reason why people are friends with is is because they are just plain sad. They feel bad for you. How does it feel to be in your own little bubble to think that you have friends who truly care for your sorry white ass.
- Secondly, At least I can brag that I had sex. You, well you just prolly made up the story of the threesome you had at Mountain Jam. No wait. Let me reverse that. YOU did have a threesome. But it wasn’t with 2 hot girls. You had a threesome with your HANDS and 2 Gay Guys named WALLY and JIM. Now how does it feel to take it up the ass like a crybaby MAN in Jail. I bet your ass never felt the same. You must me shitting out pancakes now.
- Third I have better chance on succeeding in life than you do so I really don’t care what your opinion is on my sex life. At Least I Have had some and will get some more than you will ever have. So why don’t you butter your asshole again and let your dog anally rape you cause that is the extent of sex you will ever have.
- Finally. I don’t know where you got the bright IDEA that I was moving to ALASKA. That is a lie. YOu are a RETARDED ASSHOLE To beleive that This man is moving out to the coldest part of the UNITED STATES. Now why don’t you give your self a DUTCH WINDMILL and have a horse suck your asshole.
Now. You can now see why I am totally pissed off at this retarded little cry baby. All of your complaining is making me feel life is worth living. Better Yet. I am Just better than you in every way. SO why don’t you go fuck that HIGH HORSE YOU RODE IN ON and Lube your asshole for the Giant Dicking you will get from the people who truly hate you.
I now feel better for venting this steam. I hope you die in hell you little assgoblin of doom and I hope Satan is the doorman so he can slam that dildoish door so far up your asshole you will be burping out jizz until the end of eternity. Have a nice fucking Day douchbag!.
Now to all my regular readers. Have a great day and enjoy the rest of your week and thank you for tuning into another fun filled episode of What Frosts My Muffin.
Naota out.
Warning This Post May Contain Language Not Suitable for Children.
You have Been Warned.
Here is another exiting episode of What Frosts my Muffins. I know that people are cruel and just plain mean. People will do anything to destroy the good reputation of others. That is why I am writing another blog entry about “Flaming Trolls” That is right. I am talking about Trolls. Not the storybook creatures or magic the gathering cards. But Ugly, no good for nothing, no talent ass clowns who flam other people.
Now I am going to put the two terms together. Flaming troll means a person who disturbs the natural balance in a web community. This person is one who just defames, slanders, possibly starts negative or argumentative discussions in a forum, or perhaps, just to be a total douche bag.
The main reason why I am writing this is because of a person name Sedbona, Project AI or what ever this person goes by online. This person, probably gets her jollies off by pissing off other people. Why? Why do you have the urge to flame others?
Is it because they have more responsibilities? Perhaps, they have a higher rank than you? Maybe, just maybe you feel so insecure with yourself that you feel the need to start fights, diss, or troll forums and discussion boards? Or how about this, Why you do have to come back when your banned? What motivates you to get kicked off and come back under another alias.
This looks like you’re a hypocrite. Why, you may ask? Well I can tell you. You have a fond hating of people who have multiple screen names and your so fucking paranoid that Someone may have another alias that you have to keep creating new aliases to get back online when you’re a thrown off because you violated the terms and services of a particular website.
Here is an example, a person flames and trolls a forum. That person gets so pissed off that they start making the life’s of the moderators a living hell. They keep on bitching that their posts were removed, eddied, moved, and possibly locked. Said person gets banned. Person created another account to start posting to agree with the original poster who got banned. That account gets banned. It keeps happening. The person then gets banned again permanently based off of IP address rage or by name or what not. This person is so pissed off that they feel so insecure with themselves that they have to start writing in a blog about how mad they are because the Forum Moderators are doing their jobs.
Another thing, please stop twisting words for your own retarded arguments. You are doing something called slander. You are taking words meant to be interrupted only one way and twisting them so that you can put into an asinine argument and have it interrupted another way. That is just fucking stupid. Why don’t you go and pull your heads out of your asses, because you are dumb.
I got news for you. What you are doing is fucking wrong. You are scum. You are the little one cell organisms that died millions of years ago. You are dumb and just plain retarded.
Why don’t you get a fucking life and go outside and get some real air. Play in the streets with sticks and rocks, and leave the professional gaming to those who want to play it properly.
Here is something else. Why don’t you go play games that are hosted in your own country or possibly in your own continent? IF you are in England or Romania, China or Korea, Play on European servers. Stop playing on servers meant for people in America. We want to be able to understand who we are talking to. Not some Jibberjaberish nonsense.
Also, If you are going to play on an American Server and post on an American forum; Please learn how to fucking spell. It’s hard enough as it is to read broken English from translating software. But when you are trying to spell FLAWS and wind up spelling FLOWS that is 2 separate words. That is the main reason why you should play on your own continents servers.
God damn assholes, I say. The internet would be a better place without FLAMING TROLLS, PEDOFILES, SEX OFFENDERS, SPAMMERS, CHEATERS, and other nefarious people
Now I work in the Technology industry. I have been using the internet since it came out. I know a lot of shit that has happened on line since the original days of Arpanet and Decnet and the original Bulletin Board Systems. I have had many forums. I have kicked out my fair share of flaming trolls. I have created many different special ranks for those trolls such as DUMBASS, FLAMING HOMO TROLL, FLAMING PUSSY TROLL (not the one like pillow pants from clerks two. This is different) and many more.
I just want to have a safe community. That is what a forum is about. It is a place where you can get together with many different people of different backgrounds to discuss topics. I don’t want to have flaming trolls ruin the good experience I am trying to set for everyone.
Again, Just as I said before, if you are nice, you will get nice response. If you are mean, you will get mean responses and possibly kicked. Stop trolling and flaming people. Even if it is on your own web log, you are still causing a problem.
I am just sick and tired of total assholes who abuse the god dam system and assholes who make my friends cry. STOP IT or else. Because, if you try any of that shit on my site, you will be forever banned, and please don’t think that you can change your ip. I have been known to block whole countries. So take that as a preemptive warning. Never mess with a network admin, because we can block your access at any given time.
