Need help with the Novaline.

Doing the absolute zero camo grind. On the last stretch. 25/30. I’m struggling with the Novaline. Any tips or builds I can use with this weapon? Only gun I’ve struggled with so far.

WTF is going on with casuals today!?

Took a 24 break. Came back today and it’s like a ranked lobby! I was getting 30-40 kills a game yesterday. I’m not even getting 15 today!

Mine has got a dint on the corner. Not bothered about that but mine has the artwork peeling off the box on the edge!? Gutted! I waited all week for this! Had some really bad luck with online orders this week.

Having a bad day today. Little story.

I was doing so well. Had a little routine going that was working. Small walks. No PEM. Lost loads of weight. Look the best I have in over 5 years. Flat stomach for the first time since 2020. All my old clothes fit me again. No bloat whatsoever.

Today I’m in the pits of PEM hell. Poisoned pain feeling everywhere. Upset stomach. Everything hurts. Can’t even watch a film. I know the drill now but PEM puts me in such a deep depression because it reminds me I’m still so unwell.

I saw a video that reminded me of my old cat today on social media. A ginger Tom. He was a handsome fella lol. (A stray) Who befriended me over 6 months. It took him that long to finally come in and be comfortable around me. Up until the point where he would wait for me to come back from town. When I used to got out. At 3-4 in the morning. He would be at my door step without fail. He used to put his head right next to mine and purr extra loud to wake me up in the mornings. 😂 it reminded me of better times. My invincible youth. That cat is the only being that ever loved me unconditionally. My first girlfriend (first love) broke my heart so badly when I was a teen I never was able to love another woman the same again. This is my life lol.

It breaks my heart who I used be and what I am now. Totally Broken. I used to be the fittest guy around (physically speaking) not bad looking either lol happy go lucky and I stopped at nothing. Until covid came along a ruined my life. Now I’m a shadow of my former self who can’t even go 2 miles away from my home because I get scared. (I used to work all over the UK) I’m 40 now and it feels like it’s over for me already. Sorry I’m rambling now but it hurts me bad. I might delete this because I don’t know if this helps anyone. Just needed to vent.

This is how you know you are enjoying a game. I actually caught myself doing this.

Putting in a reminder of the new season for BO7 is dropping on my calendar like I’m going to miss it or something. 😂

Tonight’s watch. Robocop in glorious 4K.

It’s been a good 6 months since I’ve seen this masterpiece. It’s in my top 10 favourite films of all time. Has my favourite villain of the 80s. Has my favourite shootout of the 80’s. 10/10 transfer. 10/10 film. What are you watching tonight?

Shot Caller. One of my favourite films of the last decade. On Tubi now.

Very rarely does a modern film go into my top 20. Shot Caller did. Exceptional film. Highly recommended. The score is sublime throughout.

I’m having the time of my life on Black Ops 7!

Long story short I’m going for the Apocalypse camo. I’m slowly but surely grinding the starglass camo atm. I have 23 guns out of 30 so far.

The thing is with this camo grind is it forces you to play guns I normal wouldn’t gravitate to. The burst assault rifles and the slower fire rate weapons for example.

Well this morning I’m grinding the X9 Maverick. A gun I haven’t touched after 300 plus hours on this game. After an hour of misery trying to figure out the build for this weapon it’s absolutely shreds! I haven’t played a burst fire weapon since OG Call of Duty 2 back in 09! I love how it handles!

The thing I love about this game is once you tinker around for a couple of hours with a gun you can make a build that perfectly suits you. I absolutely love this COD! Here’s my build for the X9 if anyone’s interested

The MXR-17 absolutely shreds!

I’m doing the camo grind and finally grinding the MXR. After hundreds of hours of avoiding it I finally tied it. It absolutely shreds! Might be my favourite weapon atm!

Weird session tonight.

Just got on casuals got direct messages a slur and told to F off out of nowhere. Thats was first. Next was accused of cheating because I’m quite good with a sniper on a different game. All happened tonight. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Weird it happens all in one night. Never had issues before this.

Which action star had the most impressive physique on screen.

For me it was Van Damme in Bloodsport. He looks absolutely incredible in this film.

I’m stuck on this mastery and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong?

I’ve been trying to get this all morning but it’s not tracking. I’m definitely getting more than 5 kills but it’s not moving up. Same with the Kogot. Both stuck on 2/6. Can someone help? The SMGs are taking forever.

Pre ordered locked in.

Can’t wait for these! Rarewaves has 10% off atm if that helps anyone.

I must have seen this film over 20 times now. First time this year (just found it free on Tubi). Absolute masterpiece in filmmaking by one of my favourite directors Jeff Nichols. The performances. Michael Shannon is just on another level in this film. Same with Jessica Chastain. The cinematography, gorgeous. I love everything about it. Highly recommend this film to anyone how hasn’t seen it yet! In my top 20 favourite films of all time.

Only discovered Arrow Video at the beginning of last year. I’ve been slowly building up my collection since then. A couple of these are second hand. Such a fun hobby hunting down certain films for a good price. Nothing beats collecting physical media for me.

This is my Saturday 4K film tonight. Can’t wait! I got a dreaded ding at the bottom. I’m telling myself it’s all part of the character of collecting physical media. 😂 this one stays with me.

Two years ago I got really sick from Covid and put on loads of weight and mentally was destroyed. A new Lidl opened up exactly 1.5 miles away from where I live.

My new routine is I walk to that Lidl. Get my lunch which includes their crème caramel (delicious!) two stone baked rolls, some ham and salad. Also a pastry which changes daily. Never comes over a £10.

So I do a 3 mile walk a day there and back which has helped me lose about 2 stone. So my whole new routine revolves around getting my lunch from Lidl. Which is absolutely delicious every time. Its helped my mental health massively. Just my little story.
