The most awesome thing I have ever seen…
Just wait until you are about a minute in and you will have an internet orgasm…
I will not even describe it. Just like the Matrix, you cannot be told what it is. You have to see it for yourself.
Play him off, Keyboard Cat!
Site of the year… so far. If you have no life, like me, Keyboard Cat is old in internet terms (the animal is actually dead, in fact), but just like lolcats, I can’t seem to get enough “play him off, keyboard cat” videos. Here’s a taste:
The lessons that Wolverine has taught us.
I know it has been a couple weeks since X-Men Origins: Wolverine has hit the big screens, but to be completely honest, it has taken this long to wash the putrid taste of fail from my soul. Maybe I was totally spoiled by the magnificence of the flurry of great comic book movies that we were all treated to from the previous year (The Dark Knight, Iron Man, Watchmen), but seriously, how did this crapheap of a disappointment ever get made? I have pondered why it sucked so bad, and I think there are a few lessons to be learned from success. So here are a list of things that I felt were terribly wrong with Wolverine, and I have even set them up in comparison to the comic book movies that weren’t so full of suck. I will begin with the benign and move to the more ridiculous mistakes.
Finally, a reason to buy a Wii
If you have been looking for a reason to buy a Wii (and actually play it), I think this is exactly you’ve been waiting for. Can you say “Halo Killer”?
BTE Netcast – Episode 5 – Bank Heist
Long overdue, Foozar finally makes a return and Scotty tells us of the time he witnessed a bank heist… sort of. We also honor Michael Phelps for his 100 medals in swimming. Oh, and we are still talking about the Dark Knight.
Top 5 Graffiti Artists (+1)
I thought I’d take a moment to share with the world who I consider the best graffiti artists out there. I love their style, their understanding of form and color as well as the evident can control which I’m sure comes with years of practice. There are a lot more artists I admire, but these guys are the ones I look up to.

Digg Dialogg – Trent Reznor
Here’s my favorite segment from the interview:

Here, anyone want to give it a shot?
Dear Mr. Smuggy Apple “Genius”* Guy…
When I entered your store to find out why my pretty old Powerbook was suddenly running so slowly, I had no idea I had to engage you in a battle of wits in order to gain your respect and therefore “approval” for you to take a serious look at my laptop. I mean, I’ve taken this thing apart and replaced parts and gotten it up and running from being basically a 17″ paperweight, so I was pretty confident in my abilities. I figured that since you’re the “Genius” that you would know more about my Apple product than I would.
I mean, it was pretty unecessary for you to have the smug, “oh you’re a P.C. guy” attitude. I mean, I get it… You’re paid to be a “Genius”*, so you have to act holier than thou and like you’re the savior of the Apple world. I didn’t mean to step on your toes with a slight display of competence. It was merely a simple act of getting you up to speed so that we could jump right to the chase. I know you’re type.. The “have you tried restarting?” type. And I just basically wanted you to know that I’m not of the “no, I haven’t tried restarting” crowd. Your manhood was safe with me. I wanted no part of your Alpha-Apple status. I merely wanted a little of insight into Apple tech and how I could keep my old-school Apple up running smoothly.
I mean, if it was a battle of wits, I could no doubt hold my own. But trust me Apple “Genius”*, I was no threat to your fragile hierarchy. You can go back to impressing hippie chicks with “have you tried restarting?” and “let’s run the disk checker to see if there are any disk errors” – her: “oh you can do that??” – “yes, it’s very complicated” – her: “*swoon!* *eyes-a-flutter*”. I won’t tell the faux-rocker-edgy-i-got-this-tattoo-to-fit-a-persona-i-desperately-want-to-fit-in-to chicks that you STILL couldn’t figure out what was wrong. I mean, oh yeah… I totally noticed by your “hmmm… that’s definitely not good” comment under your breath and quizzical gaze at my screen, that you were dumbfounded. But I won’t say a word…
Your iEgo will remain in tact. I won’t tell your iPeers a thing.
Ass.
*-When I say “Genius”, I’m saying it in the most condescending tone you can imagine. Imagine the most condescending tone you’ve ever heard, then double it and add a little “angry wife/girlfriend” in… That’s how I’m saying it…
