And it shall begin...


The Banatao Retreats have a way of lighting a fire under my butt. I love it and it makes me want to grunt HOO HAH. What is my profession? Definitely not a potter.

I would cut my hand off and outfit it with a chainsaw

The situation is tense.

The madman who invented the bestselling Nintendo DS game, Brain Age, has inadvertently created an unstoppable zombie generation made up of upper middle class children and young adults. Armed with lightning fast arithmetic skills and photographic memory, these zombies are nerdy, but they are still slow and it has been confirmed they will die if one shoots them in the head or groin. Actually, reports say one just has to challenge them to a game of Wii Sports because zombies suck at moving around.

Fight with chainsaws and shotguns, and insult their specialized knowledge in something nobody really cares about. Looks like this Zombie Armageddon needs to bring it to my house. Actually, I'd rather not.

Because then I'd make like hockey sticks, and get the puck out.

Photos

I think high contrast digital photos look good because online photos in context always have a background, something framing it. Therefore, these high-contrast (or shadowy) photos always look more realistic, like a bright room leaking light into dark outer world framed by the borders of your pictures. It could be the generic white background when you put a search query in Google Images, or it could be the classier white background with subtle gray fonts of Flickr. It could just be a window when you click it on your desktop, or it could be your profile picture on Facebook. It makes me just want to reach into the picture.

Get Knocked Up


Everybody who cares about someday looking back and remembering the good times needs to go see "Knocked Up." It's going to preserve everything that we now live with and just how much life has changed because of that. It's also a really nice and heartwarming story. I think the best description I've seen online is that it's the best date movie. True that.

"Do you want to do it doggie style?"
"You're not going to fuck me like a dog."
"It's doggie style. It's a style, doesn't mean you're a dog. We don't have to go outside or anything."

I need to save up for some diamonds.


I think I'm going to find me a wife on Last.fm. I'm serious. Last.fm is such a well-thought Web 2.0 social networking company. It can only get better from here on, and it just started in 2002! I think I just might try to find a job in these here websites...
