Webgames.

I get bored sometimes at work, and i look for stuff to do, and i end up seeing how far a yeti can throw a penguin, or how many cats i can shoot via flash games on the internuts. Sometimes TV Networks do the flash games, like Comedy Central and Cartoon Networks brilliant time wasters. (Check out "Bible Fights" on the Cartoon Network one. Totally worth it.) FX needs help. Not because the games suck, i don't give a fuck about playing any of them. No, it's what they're missing.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has a new season coming "Late Summer". This could potentially be a genius flash game. Drunk games, bar games, a flash game where you insult Charlie until he cries, competitive eating with Frank. So much potential. So, get to it FX. Make my day interesting. And if you're unfamiliar with Always Sunny, this is the show in a nutshell:

There was a time when I would blog about Memorial Day and how people would use yesterday as a day off without really realizing the meaning behind the holiday. But why do that when you can post something like this:




Quite possibly better than the movie, but that'd require me to actually sit through the movie, so...

One Thing i Know For a Fact: There's a difference between working behind the PLUMBING COUNTER at the hardware store and actually being a plumber. I'm saying take his advice with a grain of salt.

SMOKEY THE BEAR 1934-2007 R.I.P.

The schizophrenia that is human nature shocks me sometimes. We search the heavens hoping to find a planet that mirrors ours, or we seek out archaeological ruins and discover clues to the mystery behind the long vanished Mayan culture. And on the other side we have the violent, vicious and brutal side to our nature. Sending people to fight and die for cheap oil, murdering and decapitating your wife, a campus shooting spree. It can get depressing.

Count this in the WTF file. I'm going to describe something, give you the link, and you get to decide whether you want to click on it to see humanity suck it hard.

I have seen many things in my years of lurking on the internet. I thought I'd seen most of the sick, fucked up sex shit either on accident or on purpose at some point in my life. Piss, poop, poop eating, animal, weird objects, what i hope wasn't really rape, but this...this is a whole new level.

In the vignette, we start off in the snowy woods, where a woman with a rifle shoots at a tree, and we hear an unnatural moan, a couple of more shots and we find out she was shooting at a bear that had been chased up a tree (which is common when hunting with hounds, the dogs chase a bear up a tree, then you shoot from a safe distance). The bear, clearly dead, elicits a high five between the blond and her companion, and they're as excited as Ted Nugent in a loin cloth. Then she bends over the freshly killed bear while her friend bangs her doggy style. At one point she says "it's so warm". Guess what? We're not at the bad part yet. Not in my opinion anyhow. Anyhow, they're fucking like the morons that they are, he nuts on her ass and that's where i think it will end. NO. They then let the hounds tear apart the dead bear. It horrified me. It made me nauseous. I found the whole thing so disturbing.
And how do you talk someone into something like that?
"Hey honey, let's go kill a bear, fuck on the freshly killed and bloody corpse then let it get ripped apart by the hounds!"
"Sounds great! How about we videotape it because it's so awesome!"
"Sweet!" then a high five.

Anyhow. I'm done talking about this.

WHERE DO YOU GO?

When your Michael Bay and you need a city that looks like it's been ravaged by giant robots????

NNNAHH NNNAHH NNNAHH NNNAHH NNNAHH .....DETROIT ROCK CITY!

Check out the new Transformers trailer in HD, recognize any of the streets there blowing the shit out of? Thought I may have scene the State Theater in one shot.....

...Anyway Bay's only good for jerk off action shots, but this time he's using robots as opposed to Bruce Willis or Nic Cage. Could that some how be better......we'll see.

Oh yeah and don't forget to Live Free or Die Hard.

The Hooded Fang.

PAO has a well known Gary Busey bias. We've flaunted his greatness over and over again. At least on my part it's because i'm fascinated by people paying someone who is clearly insane to act in their films. A truly great Busey performance is something to behold. It stinks of a combination of out-of-your-fucking-mind insanity and a loose grip on character and plot. Just enough to make you believe that a few months before the shoot he might have read the script.

Well, apparently we are not alone. Uber.com has a list of the top 10 Busey performances. If you have the free time, click through all of the clips and check out the glory that is Busey (especially the interview about Hunter S. Thompson. whew. that ones...special) because it's truly worth it. But if i have to select one clip, it has to be The Hooded Fang. Anytime you have Gary Busey in costume, singing, trying to scare children, and have a child whisper to him "Please don't make your dog eat my eyeballs." you've got classic Busey.

What?


Is gamestop no longer buying old PS2's???


Also there's some stuff going down with the biggest Marvel property next to Spiderman.

Say it ain't so Tom!

My vote, if you want to really do it right......Lorenzo Lamas! Again I urge you to check out the Snake Eater franchise to prove my point.

IS THERE ANYONE COOLER???

Bruce Campbell + Duran Duran=

GENIUS!!!

Life sure has a sick sense of humor, doesn't it?

The question isn't why there will be a sequel to Point Break, but rather why it took so fucking long? That movie is 100% genius. Let me tell you, i'm more excited about this than I am Michael Bay Presents The Transformers on Ice.

Why be a servant of the law?

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO MY NPR?

Anybody notice how NPR has been on a down word trend for the last couple of years? First they began stripping away all there music programs. You could always count on heading out to lunch and hearing Radiohead, Johnny Cash, Steve Perry (maybe not) and a wide variety of other stuff. Now it's some stuffy English news program. In fact it's all news all the time now with the exception of Ed Love who I believe can only leave WDET through death. Watch your back Ed. Word is they have (or did) get rid of Liz Coplin who worked a graveyard shift on the weekends. Cause seriously it's Saturday night and I need to know what happened with the Dow Jones at 3am after eating my sober coney. Also they added a program that pops up far to often called Market Watch, what happened to your liberal slant??? Since when does NPR give a shit about the Stock Market?? at least enough to give it a couple half hour slots worth of time. I'd much rather they spend that time doing there people stories like about Jim Whogivesafuck and how he helps the enviorment by watching paint dry. The other thing is I'm not alone on this. NPR called up a coworker while on the job.

NPR: Would you like to make a donation?
Jon Doe: No, I stopped supporting you awhile ago.
NPR: Why's that sir?
Jon Doe: Ever since you trashed your music format I've no reason to listen to your station.
NPR: We'll let the folks in charge know how you feel.
Jon Doe: Yeah you do that.

Seriously does it get any worse than Detroit radio? NPR was the last station you could count on for variety and now that's dying off. The worst part of it is to even consider the thought of getting satellite radio....but why pay for something you never had to before. It didn't always suck. Let's hope this is all somehow part of the circle of life where the bad lion is in control of the pack and once the brave young cub returns to claim his rightful place as king all becomes right with the world. The circle can then be complete and there can be only one.....or something like that.
