The Grindhouse Double Feature

I have returned from the theaters with your Grindhouse verdict.

There are two ways to feel about this film. You're A.) going to hate it, or B.) going to love it. I say this because of all the people that packed in to the showing I was at.. only half remained when the credits rolled. I can totally see why these people got up and left. This movie is not to be taken seriously in anyway. You could say the entire double feature is just one big joke. Hell, the hardest I laughed was the end of the second film. It's such an abrupt and 'wtf' moment you can't help but laugh out loud.

Anyway, personally I loved Grindhouse. I also loved being carded twice before seeing the film. Second time this year (300 being the other), what a great start. The carding is definitely a good idea. If you somehow didn't get enough blood, guts, and gore in 300.. Grindhouse will put you in your place. I actually cringed.. yes.. cringed. It's not all violence though. I can safely say that the only other movies that made me laugh this hard were Team America and Clerks 2. This click is freakin' hilarious.

The whole Grindhouse experience is divided up in to two films; Planet Terror and Death Proof. There's also a handful of 'fake' trailers between the two main films. These are just 5 minute trailers for movies that will.. hopefully.. never be made. Eli Roth (director of Cabin Fever and Hostel) did one titled 'Thanksgiving,' which was a slasher spoof of Halloween.. but on Thanksgiving.  That was my favorite one.

So anyway, the movies were great and I had a good time. Recommendations go out and what-not but don't flip a b!tch-switch if you end up hating this movie. End.

 

If you're unfortunate enough to live in the North, like me, then you probably don't know the unbelievable brilliance of the boiled peanut because you can only find them in the Southern States. Well it turns out you can get them in can form. My buddy dropped these off and I've been drooling over them all day. Must save them for a special occasion.

Technosexual

A person, male or female, who is so deeply enthralled with technology they discuss it with a level of passion that most people reserve for sex. Not always a geek or a nerd, but generally someone who has the latest and greatest everything.

  • She became so excited about her new laptop and PDA that her friends knew she must be technosexual.
  • The technosexual man only had girlfriends that ended in .jpg .

Three Songs..

Three songs that are good.. but because they make reference to Minnesota they're AWESOME.

Soundgarden - Outshined

Lyrics: I just looked in the mirror. Things aren't looking so good. I'm looking California and feeling Minnesota.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Dana California

Lyrics: Was the baiter gifted and a made her. One for the now and eleven for the later. Never made it up to Minnesota, North Dakota man was a gunning for the quota.

NOFX - Seeing Double At The Triple Rock

Uglitarianism

Uglitarianism is a sentimental form of vegetarianism. Uglitarians feel guilty about eating cute animals (such as baby sheep, ducks, etc) and therefore only eat ugly animals (such as pigs, cows, fish etc).

  • I don't eat lamb- I'm an uglitarian.

Snow on the ground but it's HOT in here.

  • You are one hottsicle momma!
  • Jenna Fischer.

Speaking of Jenna Fischer..

Have a super day peeps. Hopefully there isn't snow on the ground for you.. unlike some of us.. in April.. wtf..

The return of the Midnight Munchies

It's been a good long time since I did one of these.. and I know you've all been dying to know what I eat at 12 am.  So here's the first of many more to come.. Midnight Munchies!

Can one man eat 64 ounces of yogurt?

Since my blawgs are pretty boring, I decided to add something new to each one.  Enjoy the new WOTD!  I expect everyone to use this word at work or school tomorrow.

Face Melter

A heavy metal solo that is so awesome and powerful, it causes one's face to melt.

Rocko needs your help!

One of the members on TV.com setup a plan to send Nickelodeon e-mails in an attempt to get Rocko's Modern Life put out on DVD.  Even if you have no idea what a Rocko is.. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone reading this blog would shoot a quick e-mail out.

Go here: Clickie

You'll also notice that Rocko's Modern Life now has a banner.. thanks to yours truley. ;)

Roscoe ( - balls), Battle Damage, and Florida!

Check out this awesome sunset picture I snagged minutes before the sun went under! Clickie!

Roscoe is back and 200% less ballys than before. :lol:

OK, that was pretty bad. But it's true. We had Roscoe neutered. It's rough but hey, it has to be done. He had to wear the cone for a few days and I contemplated decorating it but I decided against it. He seems to be fine now.. back to his normal self again.

One more day of school left and my spring break begins. I'm leaving tomorrow night with a few buddies for a long-ass haul down to Cocoa Beach, Florida. I'll be there until the 25th so please try not to miss me. I know, sweeties, I know.. Hopefully I'll be able to catch the new South Park, which has been absolutely brilliant this season.

I'm not sure if I'll have Internet access down there.. with my laptop crashing a month ago and me being too lazy to reinstall Windows.. but if I do I'll be sure to upload some pics for everyone.

And now, I leave you all with this.. my battle damaged. Received Wednesday night around 9:35. Soccer.. a true man's sport.

Since I'll be in a car for 20+ hours.. enjoy one of the best cruising songs ever written.. Be Quiet And Drive.  Later peeps! 8)

I have heard all of Year Zero..

I have returned from the Year Zero listening party.

I have a few things to say about the album.. all good things. It sounds old-school. Not quite Pretty Hate Machine old but not quite Downward Spiral new. It's somewhere in between and it's simply amazing. Absolutely blows With Teeth away.

It's noisy, loud and has some of the heaviest, hardest sounding beats I've heard. Seriously.. this is the kind of music sub-woofers were made for. If one of the parties stops nearby for you, check here, I highly recommend going and hearing this beast before it's unleashed April 17th.

=( (A sad day for TV.com)

One of TV.com's most beloved, funny, and unique members is no longer with us. Drea, or hoffman9102, has passed away. It's left me in complete and utter shock. She posted in my blogs just days ago and now she's gone.

She was a large part of this site's community and made a lot of people laugh. So please remember the good times you shared with her.

RIP Drea

The countdown ends..

The 300 Countdown: 0 DAYS!

Just got back from seeing 300. It's good.. really good. Probably the best film that will be released this year. Although historical inaccuracies ran the gamete.. it was still an amazing thing to watch.

No reason why anyone shouldn't see this movie. :lol:

And here's a special treat for ya'll.. another new Nine Inch Nails song. In This Twilight.
