Yes, I am 4. Yes, I am a geek.

So I find this hilarious:

I was finally able to find a clip of it on YouTube. Took a while, but here it is:

I am doing some work and I have Deliverance on in the background.  I've never actually seen the whole thing, so I just for the first time saw the scene where the guy playing guitar plays Deuling Bajos with the banjo playing hill-billy kid.  All standard issue Deliverance jokes asside, the scene really made me wish I had learned to play banjo.  When someone plays it right, it is damn impressive.

I have just been informed that Louie has striked again. If you do not know who Louie is, please watch this video before progressing further:

Only in America can such gluttony thrive as shown in the video matrushkaka  just sent me:


Yea, bacon dipped in batter, then fried in grease and served with white gravy. Mixed in between scenes of bacon frying in grease and people smoking with one hand and scooping white gravy with a bacon shovel into mouth are some classic quotes. Among them, a woman who is apparently tasting the masterpiece of greased gastronomy says, "This is good, it just needs more salt". Yes. More salt. Of course. She then puts on what looks like about half the salt cellar.

Some other gems:

"Some guys come in here and order two orders and that's there meal."

"Well, it is good for ya. Your own body can tell ya what is good for ya," says the owner in closing. No, he is not joking. He looks healthy.

I happened to have The Polar Express on in the background tonight and paused a moment to look at it. That movie is fucking creepy. I thought the people in it looked like some acid version of Disneyland animatronics, but then realized it was nagging at something else in the back of my mind. Then it hit me:



All they did was disguise Johnny Cab with a flimsy disguise of glasses and a mustache! Just watch a clip from Polar Express and a clip from Total Recall and you'll see what I mean. Here are some Johnny Cab clips from Total Recall (which, BTW, is a movie I actually like a lot):

This is a good Apple style commercial rip off for a PS3 vs. Wii. I think that the two systems are in different leagues, but I think the Xbox will win against the PS3 in the "serious gamer" league. I think Sony has been shooting themselves in the foot a whole lot with the PS3, and I'm happy about it. The Xbox is the only thing Microsoft I will endorse. I liked the first Xbox much more than the PS2 (I only got a PS2 to play Katamari Damacy and SOCOM), and the 360 so far is pretty slick. The little interaction I had with the PS3 was lackluster, at best. Their price point is ridiculous, the lack of vibration in the controllers is a huge step back, the added motion control is a silly vie at the Wii market, the graphics I have seen haven't been any better than the 360 (worse in some cases), the 5.1 surround sound was very buggy (this was prelaunch, so it's probably fixed now, but Xbox has had in game 5.1 supported since the first version!), and Sony's reliance on the emergence of a new media format, in this case Blu-Ray, is asinine. All I gotta say on my last point is BETA Max. Oh, and MiniDisc. Oh yea, and UMD.

Update: Apprently if a video is flagged for adult content you can't post it into LiveJournal. Mind you, this video is flagged because it has a woman clad in a skimpy bikini type outfit and slaps her own ass. Seems a bit ridiculous, but here is the URL so you can view it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrmEFeMHDO4

I am home sick for a second day today. I'm pissed off; I got sick the first day of my new job and now I'm sick again? Hopefully my illness isn't what is making me think this is hilarious:

The above video makes me think two things.

1) Her breasts appear to be in a seperate, and lesser, gravitational enviroment (or are made of jell-o)

2) I would have loved to been there for the motion capturing of the pole dancing. Just picture someone dressed like this (but with ping pong balls on the nipples, I'm assuming) doing a pole dance routine:
