It’s funny because Optimus Prime is _also_ a hyperbolicly adored leader that doesn’t live up to the hype.

So the real reason I bought a phone that a teenage girl could love was so that I can read the trashy blogs that talk about stars in the bathroom at work. This is the gem at the center of a mountain of awesome that I read while expelling poop from my body.
I cannot recommend [...]

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cartoons has a new shirt on pre-order:
I just love the description. Two guys playing tennis on the back of kodiak bears with a lit bundle of dynamite instead of a tennis ball.

TopatoCo: Most Dangerous Game Shirt

This is a quick game, it should only take you about 20 minutes to  complete.
It simultaneously satisfies my retro game itch, as well as introduces interesting game play.
Mostly you are a few blocky pixels adventuring across disapearing chasms, ropes, snakes, and hot lava. The bosses are fun to fight, and the “second half” of the [...]

The best part is the end, when the round table erupts with talking heads breaking down into skanks and getting all up in each others grills.

“When a bearded, bespectacled Joaquin Phoenix appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman February 11, he gave bloggers across the world the biggest Valentine they could hope for. What to say about this, that hasn’t already been pounded into oblivion by everyone from your neighborhood blogger to Ben Stiller? Movie star goes on talk [...]

Oliver shows off the failed attempts that got him to the place where he could create the game, reveals how Ico/Shadow of the Colossus inspired its design, and gets big bonus points for referencing David Lynch’s excellent book Catching the Big Fish in showing where he gets his inspiration (here, physically, a swimming pool).
Simon Oliver, [...]

Oh, hell yes! For halloween a couple of years ago we dressed up as zombie republicans, but this is infinitely better, as there will be more zombies and better drinking.
On the list:
Simon’s – great dive bar. You can order food from the neighborhood and have it delivered here.
Charlie’s Ale House – decent food. A little [...]

Audio and onscreen text NSFW.
I  have to get a transcript of this. They do a great job of sounding exactly like a kowtowing electronic-interest piece.

Hah ha! I said taint.
Listen to the original version of tainted love. I like the pictures of 1960s computers. Thank you infernet.

I do this same thing every day of my life, but the power is strengthened somewhat by other people participating:

I’m a little conflicted about this one.
1) I love full bodied women. Actually, I love all sorts of women. My standards are pretty low. I can’t really understand really picky men.
It’s like food. Some of it’s amazing. Most of it’s good. Some of it’s bad, but you eat it anyways because you’re hungry. Overall, [...]

I’m going to look for a video clip of this ad.
Scene: A poorly lit room is filled with 4-8 year olds. They are watching Saturday morning cartoons. A video tractor beam is projected onto their face, originating from the screen. They are slowly floating towards the television.
In walks dad with a dozen donuts. It’s family [...]

Anyone who is interested in a few rounds of layer tennis with a focus on vectors and illustrator, drop us a line.
Either start with a link to a file, or an introductory email, and we’ll start the first volley.
No rules, unless you need them to focus.
I’ve got the ability to scan your attachments for viruses [...]

South Park has a really funny episode about the recession.
Favorite scenes:
Stan opens up a savings account and the money is gone before the account is even finished opening up.
A reporter is asked about the situation and blows his brains out in response.
Timothy Geitner uses a combination of a decapitated chicken and wheel of fortune to [...]
