*Just so you know, major spoilers for all four movies lurk ahead.* 

I'm a child of the VCR generation and proudly so.  Christopher Hitchens suggested in his book The Portable Atheist that future generations may wish to exchange religious texts for literature and I think that… Read full post »

The Tapestry Series: Xena

Before I delve into the incredibly geeky obsession I have with the Warrior Princess, let me first state that this series is, in no way, going in any kind of order.  I do not value Xena above my friends and family... Well not above most of them, anyway.  I just felt like writing… Read full post »

Thoughts on Tears

You know how when you cry about something that is externally happy people say you’re crying tears of joy?  Well that’s a nice simplistic answer and it works well enough for the naïve child who’s world hasn’t been crushed by… well… his world, but those o… Read full post »

The Tapestry Series: Mom

Last month (of course it had to be in 2009) I found out that my mom had thyroid cancer.  She is scheduled for surgery this Monday and I'm not very happy about any of it.  Frankly I'm a little scared, worried, and pissed off at God yet again.

Anyway, I was… Read full post »

The Fear of Death

Angel-of-Death 

 

Yesterday this middle aged white man walks up to my register and says that there's some creepy person outside knocking on people's car windows.

"What is he asking for?"  I inquire, trying to figure out if it's just one of the school kids selling chocolate.

So this year sucked.  Seriously if an intangible object like a year could suck, 2009 would be the cock smoking champion of my entire 26 years in existence.  But it hasn't won, my friends.  No, this bitch is just too damn salty to have her ass handed to her by an odd numbered… Read full post »

The Game Informer Revamp

 Change can always be an area of contingency.  On one hand change can produce improvements, but on the other hand it almost always means loss of some kind.  Game Informer Magazine has been my favorite video game magazine since it came out.  Every month I look forwarRead full post »

Paranormal Activity Was Shit

This is gonna be a quick rant.

And not just one of my drunken, pissed off, nightly rants.  Oh no!  This is a caffeinated, cranky, 'pissed that I wasted 8 bucks' rant. 

Every reviewer that said Paranormal Activity was either 'good' or 'scary' can suck my metaphorical dick.  Ye… Read full post »

You're Only Scared Because You Have a Penis

My girlfriend and I are horror film junkies.  I'm sure that makes both of us depraved in some way, but at least the truth is out there.  So the month of October is very special in our hearts and one of the ways we choose to celebrate it is by watching… Read full post »

Another "I Hate Kanye" Post

There's not going to be a whole lot of substance in this one, boys and girls, but that's nothing new for my little slice of the blog world.  I'm sure there have been multiple posts about this, but I serioulsy had to get it out on something a little more substantial… Read full post »

Ilene: Douche Bag and Thief?

I'm only writing this because those of you who know me will understand my irritation over this situation.

Ilene Chaiken is pretty much my main lesbian nemesis.  For more vulgar information on just how much I dislike Ms. Chaiken view the following links:

Defying Gravity (With hot girls!)

There are so many reasons I should like the new ABC space drama Defying Gravity: a show about a group of astronauts that go on a dangerous mission to Venus.  Now I'm a huge fan of anything space related.  I sat through Mission to Mars for Christ's sake.  I… Read full post »

Why I Miss You Guys

I haven't been around much lately due to a couple of different projects I've been working on.  One of which is a very small time writing gig with Examiner.com.  I'm the 'Atlanta Game Lifestyle Examiner' and while I'm not exactly paying the bills with it, I am trying to improve my… Read full post »

I was checking one of my social networking sites today and saw that one of my friends isn't too thrilled about all the press Michael Jackson is being given.  She is literally "sick of hearing about Michael Jackson."

What Pisses Me off about Gay Marriage

Yesterday after a long day of unemployed work I came home to find out that Proposition 8 had been upheld and this has pissed off a lot of my homo brothers and sisters, as it should.  I understand their anger over this issue.  It's almost as if this is one more… Read full post »

This is an ongoing fictional piece that I've decided to continue just to spite people that hate this kind of stuff.
