"You speak of knowledge, JP? You speak of experience? I have journeyed through the darkness between the most distant stars. I have beheld the births of negative-suns and borne witness to the entropy of entire realities... Unto my experience, McDaniel, all that you've built here on State of the Game is but a fleeting dream. A dream from which your precious Toss Brothers shall awaken, finding themselves drowned in a greater nightmare."

I awoke with a sweat, turning in the semi-darkness present about an hour and a half before the time my alarm usually tells me to go to work. But it's not a work day, it's saturday, and I need to get up to watch some Koreans play a video game. I hit my alarm to turn it off, rub at my eyes, but 2 hours of sleep doesn't go away fast. Maybe I need to get to bed earlier. I'm tired, and pretty sore. I've been to the gym recently, and that always makes getting up a pain. So I drag myself out of bed, arms sore, eyes still blurry, either from the fact that my glasses are lying around somewhere, or from the sleepy crap that's still there. I sit down in my chair and click my mouse button to wake up my PC. Instantly, blue light fills the room, and numerous fans start whirring away. There's a cat hair in one of them, I can hear it flicking around, but I'm not about to get on my hands and knees and prod around with a vaccuum cleaner for it.
I find my glasses, and put them on. I can make out my cursor now, so I enter my password and go to log in to gomtv, hoping that Tasteless and Artosis haven't started yet. Well, hoping that the game hasn't started, I can afford to miss the pre-show. All the sudden, something on my blue-tinted desk catches my eye. An empty, discarded can of Monster, the shit I drink to stay awake late, some times. Up on the dresser behind it, a featureless white tub, the protein powder I take to the gym. A thought begins to cross my mind, I try to push it back down, but I can't, anymore. Not now. Quickly, I minimize Tastosis and head to youtube. Surely enough, I'm able to find day[9]'s casting highlights from Chill vs CombatEx. And there it is.
Now I'm sitting in my chair, empty plastic water bottle in one hand, half-listening to Artosis telling me to get a peanut butter sandwich. Fuck that, I want Bear Semen now. I've already dumped about 90 grams of protein in, and now I crack open my can of Monster, and resist the urge to drink it straight up. No, I have to taste this, no matter how bad it is. Plus, the protein just tastes like sugar, anyways. How bad can it be? I pour it in, it only fills my water bottle about half way, but I cap the lid, add a bit of water, and shake it up. Surprisingly, I'm left with a liquid.
I take a look at the stuff in my water bottle. Day[9] was right, it actually looks kind of like semen. A bit yellow, but it's a fucking bear, right? Tilting the bottle, it's obviously a little thinner, but I'm going to drink it, so that'll have to do. I take off the top of the bottle. Not surprisingly, it smells like Monster and protein powder. So I tip it back and take a drink, watching some PvT action in fullscreen, while sitting back far enough to give the crappy stream quality (I'm paying 10 bucks for this?) a chance. It's actually not bad, seriously. I mean, it's bad, but drinkable. And I know the rush is coming. Drinking a full large energy drink usually does it for me, but protein has its own feeling, sort of an "I'm a fucking boss" feeling that hangs around until your muscles stop hurting. Yeah, that's right.
I drank a bottle of Bear Semen. Thanks day[9].
While across the other side of the world, I lazily check GOM to see that it starts in about 20 minutes. I look over at the clock, and to my glee, it's about 5 in the afternoon. I get into the SC live stream, not needing to pay, and watch the GSL insomnia free. No Bear Semen for me.
