WTF?
WoW, just WoW
Normally I don’t look at links that are posted on Twitter, but when I saw a recent post from Ashton Kutcher about a kid having a love for World of Warcraft… my curiosity was intrigued. At first I thought that it was going to be just another video of some poor kid sitting in front of his computer, getting his jollies off to a female WoW character. What I got was far better than I could&...[Read More]
Bad Donkey Wrestling?
A few weeks ago on our MehCast, I brought up something that seemed pretty disturbing. While Chris and I were driving around in town, I kept seeing little signs for a website called Bad Donkey Wrestling. I’m a pretty imaginative person, and sometimes my mind goes into the gutter… well actually, it goes into the gutter a lot. I can’t help it. That’s just how my brain is wired...[Read More]
Iranian Election
The last week has seen a veritable flood of support on Twitter for the Iranian presidential election protests occurring in Iran. In brief, the incumbent president, Ahmadinejad defeated his opponent, Mousavi, by a very large margin (63% to 33%). Many people have claimed that the election was rigged, and that the process was corrupt, sparking large and heated protests in Tehran, the capitol of Ira...[Read More]
Random Blurb…
The other day I was thinking about that Lady GaGa song “Poker Face.” In the song there is a part where, what sounds like a male voice, says something over and over but I can’t tell what it is. This is my take on it: The guy is saying “om nom, nom, nom!” So there you have it.. Lady GaGa supports Zombies with their career endeavours. P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker faceR...[Read More]
The Adventures of AT&T and Apple: Mystery of the Assholes and the First Generation iPhone
I own a first generation iPhone. I don’t qualify for an upgrade price until October of 2010, so I will continue to own a first generation iPhone for quite a while, I believe. I have, generally, had no problems with my phone, and have held it very close to my heart since my wife bought it for me in February of 2008. My love for my phone hasn’t diminished. My love for Apple and AT&...[Read More]
There’s a New Gosselin in town…. Doppleganger!
Last night, Chris and I went to go run some errands. Our first stop was PetSmart to get more litter for Moogle, and some food for Donnie. We walked around the store for about 20 minutes and then proceeded to the check out counter. While Chris was unloading the items onto the conveyor belt, I gasped in horror. What could have made me go two shades whiter than I already am? I give you Exhibit A: And...[Read More]
Great Moogly Googly!
For awhile now, Chris and I have been talking about getting a cat. We both grew up having cats and dogs as pets, so having a kitten around would be great. About a week and a half ago, we met up with some friends at Sonic when they were having their Free Root Beer Float night. One of the guys who met up with us, @DanielDanger on Twitter, was talking about his two kittens. We had seen pictures and ...[Read More]
I’m Back!
Yes, like the title of this blog states, I am back. I apologize for being away from our blogsite for so long but I really needed the break. I’ve been dealing with some pretty difficult things in my life and honestly couldn’t think of anything interesting to write about. I had no problem doing the MehCast and talking about certain topics, but creating an actual blog seemed like a great ...[Read More]
MORAL KOMBAT!
17 years ago, the world was given Mortal Kombat; a video game that was partially responsible for the creation of the ESRB due to high levels of violence, blood, and gore. Needless to say, it was a hit. However, no game is perfect for its entire target audience, not even Mortal Kombat. The question remains; how can the remaining target demographic be captured by the series? It’s all a mat...[Read More]
Duke Nukem Forever/Duke Nukem Never
Almost 12 years have passed since the sequel to Duke Nukem 3D was announced by 3D Realms. 12 long years of screenshots, development updates, and interminable delays. Duke Nukem Forever has become a vaporware legend for it’s 12 year development period with no playable demo or beta release, and every-few-years screenshot releases. It seems that the delays may be over, albeit not in the way ...[Read More]
Movie Remakes
Why does the movie industry feel the need to saturate viewers with movie remakes? Why not do something original more often? The last few years, especially, has seen a veritable explosion of movie remakes, and it seems the trend is far from over. Anyone remember the 1991 Phoebe Cates / Rik Mayall film Drop Dead Fred? It was a fantastic film that, while commercial unsuccessful, gained a very larg...[Read More]
Subtle Advertising
Last night, Lindsey and I saw a very interesting Schick razor commercial for women. I won’t do it the disservice of attempting to describe it with my paltry vocabulary. Here it is in all of its glory: youtube::WAk77Kr_OwQ:: Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. -Because I said so
