Dead Or Alive You're Coming With Me

Ever type in random shit on YouTube just to see what will pop up? Tonight I just typed in "Robocop" looking for maybe some Clarence Boddicker gems or something and I found this bizarre video of Robocop vs. Neo. Say the what? My only quibble is that Robocop plus ED-209 plus Yoda is pretty much unbeatable, no matter what reality you're checked into.

It's An Exciting Movie

Nothing makes me giggle at the end of a 12-hour work day like Star Wars according to a 3-year-old. Do you know there are adults in their 20s and 30s who have never seen Star Wars? WTF are these people actually watching? The Bucket List? Naked Chef reruns? What?!?

A Tickety-Tack Tranny Hot Mess


I want to have Amy Poehler's babies. She is a genius. I thought this was funny when I saw it over the weekend (one of the few segments I didn't fast-forward after 30 seconds). But then when I realized that just thinking about it today was making me giggle, I had to find it again. Also, not sure it would be very funny if you haven't been watching Project Runway, but GAWD who isn't watching it these days?!?

Too Damned Tall

Did you ever see a movie with Dudley Moore called Crazy People? It's one of those forgotten hilarities of the 80s. I laughed my ass off when I found this fake commercial they made in the movie posted on You Tube with the headline "Banned Racist Sony Commercial". You can't meta this up!

Yeah, Bitch, It's Me.


Old clip of Mos Def on Bill Maher. It was completely interesting. But I can't find the clip I really wanted which was of him comparing the presidency to a party joint that the Bushes and Clintons just keep passing back and forth.

The Most Fun You Can Have With A Record Sleeve In Front Of Your Face

For The Ladies (And Effeminate Men) Only

Yes, I am mildly obsessed with Jane Austen adaptations but the freaking things are on every week! So I started dinking around on You Tube and found some of the most sickeningly sweet mash videos with lilting female vocals. Still as much as I have a hard time with the Celine-level cheese there is still enough there to make me watch it. Damn! I'm such a sucker for the happy ending.

Comic Grab Bag

All illustrated in some form but three completely separate beasts. For your consideration:

1. Garfield Minus Garfield

Bramble Mindfuck.

2. Indietits

The ultimate in dirty birds.

3.Afterworld

Watch out, it will steal your Saturday afternoon.

It Didn't Have A Number On It, Did It?

So it's hard to know who's still watching, but let those of us who never wavered in our faith to Lost be grateful for the amazing season we are in the middle of. Maybe it's because I appreciate a show that doesn't have to spell everything out for me explicitly (and yes, Heroes, I am talking to you). When people bitch that Lost never "gives any answers" I just want to scream, Yes! That's exactly the show you are watching! That's why it's fucking awesome!! I actually fear the answers. I don't want them. I want strangeness and terror and Hurley and Sawyer playing horseshoes. I want Desmond to be the next Doctor Who only it's not TV it's real and one day I can hear the TARDIS outside and oh... well, that's just a little moment for me.

So you either watch or don't. Haters to the left, as they say. Make sure you put forth the tiny extra clicking effort of watching the "Missing Pieces" which are funny and scary and just as good as anything they've actually aired. And while you're at it here's the essential Orchid orientation video that gives me the major jeebs.

Blogtastic!

Okay, last time I say blog. Here are some whatchamacalits that I have bookmarked for periodic enjoyments. Not your everyday clicks (whole other bookmark folder, yes I am slightly anal) but the ones I check in with from time to time.

Cause It's A Monday

I decided to blog some. Also blog is just a fun verb to use. Once upon a time I blogged more but there's lots of stuff in my life I used to do more. Talk on the phone. Write in a journal. Worry about the size of my nose and/or boobs and/or whatever. Take psychotropic drugs.

So today I figured no time like the Daylight Savings present to clear out the old Blogs bookmarks folder. Let commence the onslaught of random non-sequitors with this video that reminds me everytime that blogging is just a chump's game and so is life for that matter but I'm enjoying it all anyway.
