7:43 PM Caleb: So, what was I supposed to download?
 me: FFX 2.6 gold
  I think 2.6
  yeah
 Caleb: Where can this be done?
7:44 PM me: hold up
 Caleb: NO!
 me: send you the link in a sec, in the meantime
  you'll want this too
  http://www.alexff.com/ezfx.php
  the one on the elft
7:45 PM http://www.mike.va.com.au/
  this is the mod
7:47 PM with all the extra abilities and whatnot
  my advice
  or rather info
  you won't be able to add in your characters into your team until you've done a couple missions
7:48 PM so might as well play a couple and then go about making your custom guy
 Caleb: More like custom gay.
7:49 PM me: make a couple, one not too powerful and one moreso, so that you can add at least one of your folks as soon as the opportunity arises to add them in, adding them in requires points you've earned equivalent to their overall awesomeness
  that's what I meant to write
  Mirna and others keep trying to get me to stop saying gay and fag
  so that I don't accidentally say such things on TV in the future
  as if I am incapable of monitoring my own language use and altering is based on the situation
7:50 PM notice how I didn't say "fuck" on fox news
  or any of my radio interviews
 Caleb: And I'm very proud of you for that.
7:53 PM me: THANKS
  anywho
  I made a couple characters just to test it out
7:54 PM one is a Puerto Rican gangster-looking guy with some of mageto's powers, plus he goes nuts every once in a while for no reason
  and just runs around doing random crazy shit
  another can control time to some extent
7:55 PM another can deliver a move I named the "Hypnoslap"
  which you can probably guess at
  John and I played some last night
  and several buildings were blown up either partially or entirely, all by accident
  and some civilians were killed by a falling crane
7:56 PM it was incredible
  it's like that Marvel Super Heroes RPG tabletop game
  except we can actually play it

17 minutes
8:14 PM Caleb: DUDE I CAN'T WAIT!!
 me: dude that is a reasonable view
 Caleb: IM INSTALLING NOW!!

6 minutes
8:20 PM Caleb: I've installed it.
  Now what?

10 minutes
8:31 PM me: well sir
  install the two add-ons
  should install automatically when you open them
 Caleb: I need Steam, right?
8:33 PM What two add-ons?
  I'm so confused!
 me: the mods I linked you to above
  the ones that add all the extra powers, skins, effects, etc
  just open them and they will install
  actually, the one that's not 2.6 gold
8:34 PM you'll have to tell it where to put it
  it thinks you have freedom force folder in your application folder
  but it's in the steam folder
  your steam folder is in your apps folder
 Caleb: Come here and do this for me.
8:35 PM me: you click around and see exactly where your games are in your steam folder
  just search for "freedom force" and you'l; figure it out
  this is all a lot easier than it sounds
  man, I just wrote a hell of a manifesto
8:38 PM Caleb: Dude, that' so great.
8:42 PM me: also, we can play online against each other in little danger room esque death matches
  you let me know when you're ready
8:43 PM FAGGOT
  FUCK FAGGOT\
8:46 PM Caleb: I think I'll just watch "Dirty Dancing" instead.
 me: good idea
8:47 PM Caleb: I watched it the other night.
  It was pretty good.

6 minutes
8:54 PM Caleb: So, on the mike.va.com site, which one am I supposed to download?
  Irrational 1.2 patch?
8:55 PM me: one sec
 Caleb: Jesus!
  Jesus christ!!
8:56 PM Hurry up!
 me: give me link to the page
  not that wrong link above
 Caleb: God dammit!
 me: anyway, you want the one for regular Freedom Force
  not Third Reich
 Caleb: "fffffuuuu"!!!
8:57 PM (that's from 4chan)
  (that's a meme I've seen before on the 4chan)
  (I'm just making a quick reference to it)
 me: i love that meme
  it's great for occasions when you're all like fuuuuu
8:58 PM Caleb: You nailed it, brother.
9:00 PM Okay.
  So, I did all three downloads.
  I've got Steam up and running.
  What now?
9:01 PM me: you opened up the files and installed them?
 Caleb: Yup.
 me: then you are ready to roll, sir
  wait
9:02 PM one more thing
  that you gotta do first
 Caleb: Mmyes??
 me: you gotta get ready to have a BLAST!
  the Marvel Universe - it's where it's at!
9:03 PM Caleb: Yes, yes.
  Steam doesn't seem to recognize that I've downloaded and installed Freedom Force.
9:04 PM Is there some set-up step I've missed here?
9:05 PM me: you downloaded it off Steam?
 Caleb: ...No.
  I got it from the link you sent me.
 me: Freedom Force?
  you didn't buy the game?
 Caleb: I don't know.
  What are you talking about?!
9:06 PM I'm so confused!!!!!
  Help me, Barrett!
  Do it for me!!!
 me: I'm sitting here with a syringe full of two bags of heroin
  just finished my work
9:07 PM getting ready to play freedom force and shoot up at the same time in order to maximize my freedom force enjoyment
  don't fuck with me
 Caleb: "I'm Barrett. I do heroin. I feel the need to let everyone know about all the time. Heroin defines me."
 me: I'm alsoa poet
 Caleb: You're so effing tragic, dude.
 me: what I'm saying is you're holding up my plans
 Caleb: I said "effing"
 me: also, what the fuck, now you're holding them up more
 Caleb: lawls
 me: if you've got a question
9:08 PM actually, fuck this, I'm closing my browser to play freedom force, call me if you have a question
 Caleb: Wait, wait!
  Do I want the Freedom Pack?
  ABABABABABABABABABABABAAAAAAARRRRRREEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!
 me: what is that?
 Caleb: I don't know.
9:09 PM It's on the Steams.
 me: oh, that's both games
  go for it, only $3 more
  the first game is considered superior
 Caleb: Can't afford it.
 me: and the stuff you've downloaded is first game
  lolololol how can that be lol
  faggot
  just get the first one
  buy iy
  install it via steam
9:10 PM Caleb: "iy"?
 me: and then install the mods you have
