Microsoft on upcoming changes to Marketplace: While the service has had a lot of success and now boasts over 130 titles, we think it is time to continue our focus on quality over quantity. … we will be delisting older underperforming titles in order to keep the service focused on a section of high quality [...]
There’s this public access television show in Denver called Vlog TV. It’s basically a call-in request-a-youtube-video show. Viewers call in and drop the names of their favorite YouTube or other videos and the VJs play them over the air. If the video contains any profanity, such as when they showed Shoes (below), the VJs mute [...]
A sampling of why you gotta love the internet: Gotta love the internet for making the world a whole lot smaller. Gotta love the Internet for making it all possible! Gotta love the internet for all it’s shopping opportunities!!! You’ve gotta’ love the internet for its ability to help solve problems other than CSS or [...]
Why isn’t Niko from GTA IV black / a woman / etc.? (We have this argument again.) Because, as many forget and others just do not know, GTA is supposed to tell a story, dammit! As did GTA SA, for example. I’m actually enough of a fanboy to believe that Rockstar said with GTA SA, [...]
It’s always weird that when eating this “industrialized food” we eat – meaning food formed in a factory, extruded from machines, cooked on conveyor belts – you still can come across some minor defect, such as a burnt cracker or misformed fold of packaging. It’s rare, but it happens. It happens despite the likely ridiculous [...]
I recently got a video camera. When you point a video camera at people, it’s very different than pointing a regular camera at them. With a regular camera, it seems everyone strikes a pose, knows what to do. With a video camera not so much. A video camera is scarier. Perhaps its thanks to the [...]

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. “Oh, no,” I said. “Disneyland burned down.” He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. [...]
I’ve changed the mission of my weblog. It’s new purpose is to prove that irony is the strongest force in the universe. I guess in many ways it already does that. Never mind.
When it was revealed that Neversoft was to take over Guitar Hero III I didn’t realize at the time that this was going to lead to a broken fanboy heart. I’m sure that at the time Red Octane was happy to let their baby go. After all, there was Rock Band to contend with. Take [...]
Listen, I don’t expect you civilians to understand the situation. But bear with me and I’ll see if I can pound it into you soft skulls.With the decay of society and the rotting away of the moral fiber of our country this world is getting more and more dangerous and down right mean. Who do [...]
Well, I guess more so, eliminate the self. Andrew WK as some kind of avant-garde popular culture experiment is a damn intriguing idea. … almost as quickly as he arrived, Andrew Wilkes-Krier has been rudely ushered off the Apollo soundstage and scribbled as a footnote into history’s textbook of rock novelties. Been months since I [...]
The uncanny valley has been flooded, nuked, then separated from the Earth to drift off into space and apparently no one cares. NSFW.
I saw those Green-only M&Ms bags in the grocery store today. Yes, there’s the green is the horny color thing, but there’s something simpler to this than that. Look at the Valentine’s day candy in the grocery store. It’s all red / pink. The green packaging made the green M&Ms immediately stand out and get [...]
