After the Hearthstone Esports Superstars event from the past two days, I went along with the players and Esports Arena to Boomers!, an amusement center with activities like mini golf, go-karts, laser tag, and arcade games. Although I didn’t participate in anything, I snapped a ton of photos of the event, and they’re up now on my Flickr account.

It’s been a good 1+ month since my last event, and I’ve had a chance to relax and recover for a while, so for the past few days, I decided to attend the Hearthstone Esports Superstars event at Esports Arena in Santa Ana, CA.

There were a handful of Tempo Storm Hearthstone players in attendance, so I did some photography work while I was there. You can click here if you want to check out the full photo album on Flickr; I’ve also included some highlights below.

Yesterday, I went to go visit someone else’s house. I guess, for their protection, I’m not going to say whose or where it is, but if you know enough about me, you most likely can guess what house this is.

One of the residents of the house let me know that the dryer wasn’t working very well, and the clothes would go through a full dryer cycle and still come out damp. Obviously, like anyone experienced with the use of clothes dryers, I asked if the lint filter was cleaned out. The person I asked had no clue what a lint filter even was.

So yeah, we extracted that carpet from the dryer.

It works fine now.

I was in Los Angeles County yesterday, so while I was in the area, I decided to stop by and visit the Offline TV team house last night.

Why? For the dogs, of course.

Temmie, LilyPichu's Pomeranian

Maggie

If you’re a fan of LilyPichu, you may recognize the dog in the first photo – that’s Temmie the Pomeranian. The second photo is Maggie, a mix between a Boston terrier and (I think) a beagle, owned by Chris Chan, co-founder of Offline TV and talent manager at Everyday Influencers.

I love dogs

You have cancer

You know how it’s a running joke how you should never search for your symptoms online if you have any health issues, because websites like WebMD will always tell you that you have cancer?

I feel like that’s a way for the website to have a legal out, if anything. Sure, they might have disclaimers saying that WebMD should not be used in substitution for a real consultation with a licensed doctor or other certified medical practitioner, but I feel like they’re taking it a step further and covering themselves in case something goes wrong. By always having that “you have cancer” option in the results, WebMD can technically never be under fire by someone with cancer saying “I searched for my symptoms on WebMD and they said I was fine, but I actually have cancer.”

By this point, I’ve heard about this so often that the “you have cancer” thing is like a meme. But, it’s funny when running into that search result actually ends up happening to you.

I woke up with some severe neck pain this morning, and when I searched for what might possibly be wrong, Google’s featured result told me that I have cervical spine cancer.

The “WebMD will always tell you that you have cancer” meme actually really happens.
