Netflix

Good article from the L.A. Times on Netflix' court settlement, and the subscribers who are none too happy about it. Although if they offer me a free upgrade, I might get over it.

Big-ups to Naito, or Asian Thought, for the link.

VALCOR!

Up until about 2 years ago, I always thought a girl was singing this song, but it turned out to be a dude with a Fraggle Rock haircut.

This would be even funnier if we'd won.

Red square retro

This is a nifty little timewaster. Once that sideways bitch gets movin' it's over.

I read something somewhere in the InterWebs that said "pilots can last 2 minutes." That's funny to me. Pilots are like ninjas perhaps.

Pointless

I made these today. Just cuz it made me laugh, it was easy to do, and I don't have to spend any money to do them. They're kinda silly, obviously. But who knows. It's just 20 minutes of my time for something that someone may like. And lawd knows I could stand some extra income living in the San Diego.

See?

What the ¬

I have some friends who, when they're on the chatter, like to indicate laughter as QBert would indicate cursing.

So a oh-so-typical exchange might go:
Me: "You might be a redneck if..."
Them: sldkjfl;ksdfgj

But today, one came back at me like this: djflKJÒ_Ô¬°_…¬°

And I was just curious if any of you know what ¬ is. I've never seen it and don't know what use it is for, or even how to make it. It's not often you discover new characters in our lifetime. All I knew it as was a Tetris piece.

Common sense!

Please, God, PLEASE let this happen. I know life would be hard without the Food Channel and Lifetime, but I think I would be able to make do with only 50 channels.

From the Onion:

"African Child Loves His 'World Champion Seahawks' T-Shirt"

Best Beatle alive

Nice of Jay to rock the John Lennon t-shirt while he performs with Paul McCartney and a guy named Chester.

Nite nite, sweet juice box

Speaking of ecto-cooler

It's official. I'm addicted to You Tube.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen

Dennis Erickson is expected to accept the shittiest job in sports.

Do NOT watch this at work. Seriously. DON'T.

Apparently, the Basic Instinct 2 folks are embracing the whole blogger thing. Cuz I've never seen a trailer that just shows it all like this one does. It's nuts. You don't even have to wait for the DVD to fast-forward through!

I embrace this excellent marketing, however.

Top Gun 2: Brokeback Squadron

Animal Cruelty

At first I thought his dick looked strange and wrinkly. I really need to get out of the office.

Offensive...yet funny

Don't get pissed, but I found this Web site very interesting. I did pretty well too. I got 9/18 right.

Take the test and post your score.

I thought that was Spam

An English company fired an employee who thought it'd be funny to change the company's labels on their canned ham so that one of the ingredients was "dog shit."

The guy that bought some and noticed it said, "We spent 40 minutes laughing. But we haven't put any in the kids' sandwiches and we had something else for our tea."

I hope this doesn't suck

I keep thinking this has such potential for comedy that I'm afraid I'll be disappointed. I was with Old School, the last movie that had this kind of confluence of people I liked playing characters they'd be perfect for.

Anyway, here's a trailer for Nacho Libre, written by Mike White (Chuck & Buck, School of Rock, The Good Girl, Orange County) and Jared Hess and his wife (Napoleon Dynamite). Hess directed too.

Must be the Super Nintendo
