Let me first start off this post by saying that I think Banksy is a creative genius. There is something special in his work that is worth tipping our hats to. It makes us think and question and turn over ideas in our head that we long ago cast aside like a child bored with […]
‘Soldier of Steel’ campaign: Gym Jones shows what real men are made of
May 23, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Years ago I met a friend who was heavily influenced by the Gym Jones training philosophy. I had always thought I was a pretty fit guy — and then I met Mike. Those workouts broke me. They were truly a humbling experience, but I wouldn’t trade them for the world. They taught me a lot […]
Future Downton Abbey: Matthew beheaded after car hits him, England rolls over and dies
May 22, 2013 By 17 Comments
Years from now there will be a new version of ‘Downton Abbey,’ only this one will be set in England, 2013. And instead of characters dying in your typical car accident to end the season (Matthew Crawley, we hardly knew ye!), they’ll die by the hands of radical Muslim psycho-nuts. In broad daylight. Why do […]
Rand Paul to Congress: Instead of yelling at Apple, you hypocritical losers should put yourself on trial
May 21, 2013 By 31 Comments
Ron Paul may be a crazy enough to think that China and Russia would swear off espionage if only the CIA closed up shop, but at least he was sane enough to raise his son Rand with a proper understanding of free market economics. During Tuesday’s Senate subcommittee hearing on Apple’s offshore tax practices, he […]
STP’s ‘Out of Time’ featuring Chester Bennington: Imagine a tank driven by lions
May 20, 2013 By 5 Comments
What does it feel like to cheat on someone you love? If you’re a fan of Scott Weiland, it’s probably a lot like listening to Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington take the lead for the Stone Temple Pilots. When I first heard the new single ‘Out of Time’ I felt a little dirty; STP has and […]
Thoughts on lucid dreaming and the floating purple orb
May 20, 2013 By 2 Comments
Every so often bloggers are accused of writing for “attention.” There are many reasons why this is silly, but what drives me to write is because I’m a writer. It’s really that simple. That’s just what I do. I have thoughts and feelings and emotions that I have to get off my chest. They’re inside […]
Money will not solve your problems: Powerball fever highlights human weakness
May 19, 2013 By 7 Comments
Sometimes the most dangerous thing that can happen to a person is for them to get what they wish for. Every time I start seeing news stories about “Powerball fever” or a run on gas stations when lottery jackpots explode, I can’t help but think of Tim Burton’s Batman. In it, Gotham’s population lunges for […]
Chris Matthews: I call conservatives a bunch of racists — with no proof — because I can
May 17, 2013 By 5 Comments
Chris Matthews is a sick man. He is ill, and it is for that reason I do not like to talk about him. Discussing Chris Matthews and his obsession with race at this point makes me feel like a jerk. It is not nice to pick on people with mental problems, but his commentary in […]
Is Dan Slott’s ‘Superior Spider-Man’ really a Superior anti-Semite?
May 15, 2013 By 22 Comments
Dan Slott is incredibly proud of the Superior Spider-Man, both as a hero and in regards to sales. And why not? It’s his creation. And to top it all off, he has plenty of fans who tell him at comic conventions how much they love the book. But that still doesn’t change the fact that […]
Jon Stewart: Conservatives were right — I just needed the IRS and AP scandals to see it
May 14, 2013 By 2 Comments
This has been a great couple of weeks for any conservatives who have kept tabs on Bill Maher and Jon Stewart for years. Bill Maher broke down on air and admitted that there’s a funky scent in the air that reminds him a lot of freshly baked police state cookie dough. Now, Jon Stewart looks […]
