Once again, recording on my phone with some musical typing embellishment. I believe I will need to start doing this with more frequency to get better. It’s a start though.

Snacks n’ Shit posts snippets of really, really bad rap lyrics. How does it occur to recording executives that yes! this is a great song with powerful lyrics, put that on a disc! One day we will develop a moron test that is 100% effective and a new world order will arrive the next day.

What You Missed In The Matrix Online

What You Missed In The Matrix Online:

A short article about the Live Events in the Matrix MMO. Asheron’s Call and A Tale In The Desert also did/do this sort of thing, and I envy a little the players who took part in it.

This is not the trailer for the film 2012, but it should be. I want to see this movie now.

Update: So I watched the real trailer, and it makes the movie look way less fun and way more stupid. I do find it very interesting that there is no URL for the movie’s website. They just say to “Search: 2012” instead.

Who knew the biggest problem with cremation was the lack of a head? Now you can have both in one, creepy, creepy package!

British cops spotted a Facebook message from a small-town guy who announced an "all-night" party at his house -- a BBQ to celebrate his birthday -- and so they scrambled an armed, helicopter-borne Delta force in body armor to break up the event under Britain's Draconian anti-rave laws. The party had 15 people at it, eating hamburgers.

When I was travelling across Europe, I got a lot of questions about whether I would visit the UK. My answer was, and still is, that I’m not setting foot in Britain until they calm down and stop being quite so crazy. This is the sort of stuff I mean when I say crazy.

So there’s a gap in detritus and other stuff between March and July. I was travelling, or perhaps a wizard did it. I may post some stories here.

That is all.

Buffy vs. Edward, which is basically how I wished that Twilight had gone. These six minutes are better than all of the (well, several) hours I spent reading that book.

Annika's Odyssey:

Amazing little Flash adventure game about rescuing a stuffed bunny (and fetching a pail of water). I quite liked it.
