I’m back! I think…

Well!
I get back from Vegas only to find out that while I was gone, a comedy of errors took place.
First, a lightening storm obliterated both the modem and the wireless router.  Then, my car’s Check Engine light came on.  Shortly thereafter, my dad’s car overheated.  Then a man who was supposed to fix the washing [...]

Someone with too much time on their hands

I decided to do something today I never do: Go to weather.com and see what the forecast is.
While there, I noticed a link on the right-hand side that said: “Check mosquito activity in your area.”
They PAY someone to check mosquito activity?  How?  Some guy stands on the corner with meat sauce sprayed all over his [...]

Next month: Blogger Tycoon

…Unless they’ve already done it.
Seriously, something needs to be done about this Tycoon franchise.  I know we hound EA for making basically every concievable Sims game possible, up to and including “The Sims Pawn Shop Stuff,” but in the meantime, something’s slipped under our noses the whole time.
The Tycoon franchise is out of control.  While [...]

Photobucket crap

Does anyone else’s Photobucket look really screwed up? Instead of a left-hand navigation column followed by several rows of pictures, everything is now spread out in a single column with only one column of photos smashed into the left-hand side of the screen at the bottom? WHY?? It looks terrible and is [...]

Bleeerrgh

I just got done with four hours of CPR training and stuff for my summer job.
As boring as it was, it had its moments of hilarity, especially during the movies, which featured clearly under-competent actors attempting to be way too dramatic given the fact (a) there is no emergency, (b) they’re doing CPR on a [...]

Heart attack on a plate

I just saw a commercial for some “Southern Fried Chicken Biscuit Something-Or-Other” for McDonald’s. Chicken I don’t mind—in fact, it’s the chicken meals I hate the least at McDonald’s—but this thing is intended to be eaten for breakfast.
Who wants chicken for breakfast? And fried chicken at that? Besides, possibly, a wolf?
No doubt [...]

Vader attacks!

There’s a whole lot of fail going on here.
I think the most important quote in this entire story is:
Hughes claims he was drinking heavily and can’t remember the assault.
I’m also startled by the statistics at the bottom of the story. I love sci-fi and “Star Wars” as much as the next guy, but apparently [...]

EA is FAIL

That is all I’m saying.

The legal system has failed…

…when someone who runs over someone else’s pet sues said pet owner for damages instead of the other way around.

A fool-proof cure for boredom

So earlier today I wrote about how bored I was before finals.
Luckily for me, someone this blog automatically marked as spam named happy4life was around to offer their good-natured suggestion for how I should best overcome this slump in my daily routine:

“Beaten to Death with a Tire Iron?” Well, sure, I guess that would [...]

Why YouTube is great/not great

YouTube is great in that, in seconds, you can find dozens of videos of depressed teenagers whining about how their life sucks, all the while crying because their mascara leaked into their pupils (it’s even worse for the girls).
YouTube isn’t so great in that people who desecrate historical buildings and post their antics on the [...]

Awesome speech

So, Pope Eggs Benedict Arnold XVII visited the U.S. a while back. I didn’t pay too much attention to the news coverage or what he said, but apparently he made an “awesome speech” if our fearless leader is to be believed.

This semester may suck…

I’m in the honors program at my college. I never wanted to be in it because it means nothing other than people think you’re smarter than you really are. It’s also an excuse for professors to assign you more work. Whoever correlated “good grades” with “hey, they must have more hours in [...]

Fool-proof way to extend the holidays

I go back to school on the 14th.  Though, if I play my cards right, maybe I won’t have to.

More tales from the crypt

Another short computer lab story.
I just had some guy in here with a question. An assignment had appeared on his online grade list and it hadn’t been graded. He wanted to know what the assignment was. I looked at the left hand column where the title is, and told him it said, [...]
