Gotta find this game

See the TV commercial here. Love it!

Stupid questions usually get what?

I have a confession to make.

I love reading those retarded Yahoo Answers–you know the ones. Why would anyone be so screwed as to rely on people you know exactly f@#k all about to answer questions you may have? And many are often serious.

I mean, forums can be helpful but these Yahoo answers are usually such a motley crew that how could you take any of them seriously. I have often contemplated putting my own purposely stupid or intentionally provocative questions on there just for the reactions from the uninitiated. Like this guy:

Great stuff–God bless him.

It was like a date…..

…with a person you’re not very interested in. That was my job interview last week.

They’re pretty cute. They seem fairly interesting, but there’s just that intangible something where you’re thinking–”I just don’t dig them.”

I know I could do the work. I’m qualified to do the work. The pay would be good, but….just…not…interested. Not to mention that it’s a temp-to-perm position, ie: Work your ass off for a few months and get laid off before unemployment benefits kick-in. At least that’s what I sensed by their “GO GO GO!!!” “WE NEED SOMEONE NOW!!!” tone.

I’ll take my currently creatively rewarding design job where I’m getting paid about half what I’m worth over an easy, crap design job that pays well but I’m unemployed with no benefits in 3 months.

So I guess it’s my same policy towards the fairer sex right now, that is–quality OVER quantity.

Man, has it really been 15 days?????

Well, to the five people that may actually visit this blog of lameness–I apologize for not having posted in a while. And I haven’t been very busy, either. Just didn’t feel like it. But I do now.

That said, the re-cap:

I haven’t gotten any new transforming robots lately. (just waiting for a clearance rack deal on Movie Leader Megatron)
The New York Jets are still pathetic….damn it.
I got another, rather unexpected, job interview at a place I really didn’t want to work. (more on that later…)
And I’m rather happy that Arsenal are at the top of the EPL.
I’m starting another blog. (more on that later as well…)

And…..oh yeah, Torchwood is the shizznit!

Better than the Voyager toy? Perhaps.

So I’m surfing at lunch to my usual geeky web haunts and I see this link of Blackout Lego craziness at Brickfrenzy.com.

What’s funny is that this Lego creation is about the size the toy should be. I hope hasbro sees this. Still dreaming of a leader Blackout. Please?

Whoever knows pain, burns at the viewing of the Man-Thing!!!

As my typical Saturday night viewing goes, I usually spend the evening watching films of delightfully poor quality. However, nothing could’ve prepared me for the pain I would endure this last Sat. nite. As I watched the screen version of Man-Thing unfold I was struck with the feeling that the film maker must be a complete misanthrope to have unleashed such pain upon the viewer. To say that this movie sucked balls nasty would be a massive understatement. I had a root canal last week and this movie was far more painful. (at least it didn’t cost me $550.)

As you may or may not know, I’m a fan of the Man-Thing comics in all their B-Movie-esque glory, but this movie was unacceptably bad. All they had to do was just follow some of the original stories of the comic and it would’ve been a fine piece of trash. Instead we get a lameass sheriff, a useless (kinda hot) Rachael Taylor, and an even more pointless group of red-necks. All of which took forever to meet their deserved ends.

I only recommend this one to the true cinematic masochists out there. And if you can sit through The Dead Talk Back–this is your movie!

The only solace I could take is that I had my copies of the beloved comic waiting at home. Marvel continues to make the worst comic movie adaptations. Troma would’ve done a much better movie. God bless Lloyd Kaufman.
