“Some friends and I started a Fight Club.”

Earlier this week I finished reading Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. I’ve been hacking away at this 200-page wonder for about three weeks. I know that’s a ridiculous amount of time for a book that small, but I’ve been busy. I know that most people have probably watched or at least heard of the Fight [...]

Things I’ve Learned from GoDaddy.com Tech Support

I’m smarter than them. (Except Adam, he did a helluva job.) They understand that jazz is more soothing than Muzak while the customer is on hold. The first, easily forgettable, guy I spoke with this wonderful morning helped me do exactly what I was already able to do! According to Dubya he also did a [...]

Update: Someone has a sense of humor.

All credit for this goes to Truthdig, I just happened to Stumble across it. In lieu of the recent New Yorker/Obama “fiasco” I believe this should definitely be their next cover. Share/Bookmark

This is Awesome!

This really cracked me up at work, no matter how ethnically insensitive it is. I grew up in the Pokemon age, and still love it. Whenever I can afford or can convince someone to buy me a Nintendo DS. I will be playing some new age Pokemon! Hope you guys laugh too. Share/Bookmark

Here they are, let me know what you peoples think. I’ve included a black and then a color mock-up. Comments on this post will [...]

Adults Say The Darndest Things

The great Reverand Jesse jackson rides again. I almost always find him to be a rather ridiculous man, and overtly angry man also. He’s always very upset about some kind of wronging of his people. Thus we have now gained an awesome video on how he feels about Barack Obama speaking “down” to blacks (Those [...]

Good-bye 4th Amendment

I’m a couple days behind on this unfortunately, but I’m still going to spread the word. The constitution was set forth to protect the American public, apparently this no longer matters. The implications of these actions are quite terrifying. Although I usually maintain that I believe slippery slope arguments are invalid, it is a greater [...]

For a Compatriot…

I promised one of my fellow bloggers that I would partake in her shananigans, and I just now have had to time to sit down and put it together. Here we go… a. Type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr Search. b. Using only the first page, pick an image. c. [...]
