End of the World: Iceland Fights!
I can never figure out why everyone else in the world is ready, willing, and way more than able to protest stuff, but us Americans don’t. I think because we are fat, lazy, and stupid. But I could be wrong. Over in Iceland, yes, Iceland, people tried to free a guy who hung a flag … Read more
The Return of STAR HOOD!
This is not safe for work. This is not safe for anything or anyone. Don’t let your children watch. You shouldn’t even watch it. But I’m on vacation, and I have to post something. Here is Star Hood, Season 2, Episode 1. Laugh. Come on, Laugh! You know its funny.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Happy Thanksgiving! Huh? It was yesterday? Oh, well, whatever. I thought we could give thanks by watching this little doc on Joe Vs. The Volcano. I don’t really care if you’ve never saw it. You should see it, cause it is the best movie almost ever. I hope you aren’t eating too much, and I … Read more
Reporters in Mexico are being Murder. Not really all that funny.
So, I hear Mexico is having a civil war right now. They aren’t using the words “civil” or “war”, but when people who live in a country start attacking other people that are in the same country, it sure as hell sounds like a civil war to me. From the Washington Post: The attacks against … Read more
We are on Vacation. Go outside or something…
I’m pissed for two reasons. 1, I have to drive seven hours in the morning. And, 2, my Xbox 360 got the “Error 74″ stink. So off it goes to the repair shop and there goes my growing “Gears of War 2″ skills. Whatever. While I’m at my mom’s house, eating turkey and watching her … Read more
Spain puts Solar Panels in Graveyards. Zombies get discounted Powerbill.
People in Spain have the right idea. They know that dead people can’t complain, and if they do complain, it really doesn’t matter all that much. From Wired: Flat, open and sun-drenched land is so scarce in Santa Coloma that the graveyard was just about the only viable spot to move ahead with its solar … Read more
End of the World: Are you Shopping This ‘Black Friday’?
Unless you’ve been living under the biggest rock in the world, then you might know that the economy is in the crapper. The toilet. Like, all up in the toilet. And we ain’t flushing it. That thing is clogged up, junked up. We keep hitting it with a plunger and that crap is not going … Read more
IBM Wants To Build Robot Brains: Sci-Fi has Taught us Absolutely Nothing
So, it looks like we are well on our way of either creating Skynet, the Matrix robots, or that horrible iRobot nightmare (which is Kenneth Price’s favorite movie, by the way). Just look what is happening over at IBM! Part of a field called “cognitive computing”, the research will bring together neurobiologists, computer and materials … Read more
Please, Watch the New Watchmen Trailer. Do it for me.
io9, which is a much better site than this little thing, did a deep and thorough dig through the new Watchmen trailer. I don’t have time for that. I have to watch CNN at least twenty hours a day or I feel lost. What I liked about the new Watchmen trailer is how “modified” the … Read more
The Jarvis Slacks Podcast Number Nine: Hands Edition
We took a break last week, because Kenneth had to go and screen his movie and I couldn’t talk about anything important for twenty minutes. I tried. But, half way though I just broke down and started crying. This week, we talk about the New Xbox Experience and how it isn’t completely lame. We talk … Read more
