On the left side of the sanity bell curve
First thing this morning, Heather asked me if I had heard the Willie Nelson cover of Coldplay’s The Scientist. This was before I had a chance to get down my first cup of coffee and, though I had some reservations, I gave it a listen. When I started looking for the video of the cover,… Continue reading Willie Nelson Covers Coldplay’s The Scientist and It Doesn’t Suck
At some point yesterday I happened upon the much discussed topic of a Gizmodo intern’s not-so-nice piece she wrote about the online dating site OKCupid and Jon Finkle. Huh? [Mom, I now read everything I write like you’re reading it and you’ll just have to follow the links.] I worried over the whole line of links… Continue reading Yucky and Dumb: Alyssa Bereznak, Jon Finkel and Lots of Links
A time not so long ago, since it was only a couple of years ago, and in a land not too far away, since I think I might have written it from the other couch, I wrote about how I missed gaming. I still do to some extent but there have been a few games… Continue reading Long Live Play: Sony’s New Playstation Campaign Video
Remember a while back when I got lazy and had writer’s block and stuff so I embedded a bunch of videos and I named the post something stupid–Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy Video Day!–so you probably didn’t see it anyway but I put up some videos and three of them had to do with Adele and… Continue reading I Told You Adele Doesn’t Suck
If you’re a lover of The Sims 3, might I suggest you peruse my most recent post at Kmart Gamer? “Would people be willing to pay such a premium for a world when they have a new one coming with Pets? As someone who still sticks with Sunset Valley, I wasn’t sure if I would… Continue reading I Have a New Post Up At Kmart Gamer About Hidden Springs for The Sims 3
When you cross that line from gamer to gaming parent there are certain issues with which you have to deal. The big one? Keeping your toddler from seeing you pop a dude’s head like an overripe watermelon. By my estimation–and experience–you have about a year before you have to reconsider your choice of games so… Continue reading Kmart Gamer Post: Kid Friendly Games You Might Not Hate Playing
I’m overly proud of this picture I just mashed up for my Kmart Gamer post–which I haven’t finished yet because I’ve been procrastinating by making this image–and wanted you to see it. Because I like it when you scratch your head and wonder what the hell is wrong with me. Does it make more sense… Continue reading Call of Duty Baby Mashup
I saw this about five times yesterday and figured maybe you hadn’t seen it yet so, since I have a very giving soul, I’m sharing this with you. Because, really? How have you survived without knowing your geek sign? Tucker’s a Time Traveler which I find pretty funny since his super power would be time… Continue reading What’s Your Geek Sign?
If you’re one of the millions of folks using Google + right now, you’re well-acquainted with users’ profile pages. If you’re not on Google + yet, the profile page [or whatever it’s technically called] looks a lot like Facebook in that there is a profile picture on the left and then a row of images… Continue reading Tutorial: Make a Customized Google Plus Profile Page
Playstation Home bores me to freakin’ tears. So much so that I uninstalled it from Steve over a year ago. But as much as I dislike it, I’m considering putting Playstation Home back on Steve now that I’ve read this press release from Deep Silver about Dead Island and Home Square. I mean, come on!… Continue reading Zombies To Terrorize Playstation Home and Five New Dead Island Images
When I watched a demo of Arkham City at E3, it got me all hot and bothered–especially Catwoman. We got to see Penguin and I loved him with his nasty little black heart and monocle. Now he’s been super duper confirmed to the world in this trailer released yesterday. I’m so excited about this I… Continue reading Batman: Arkham City Penguin Reveal Trailer and Collector’s Edition Announced
You know I love animated gifs. I’ll toss them into posts with no concerns as to how slow it may make loading time; I’m inconsiderate like that. So I’m sure it will come as no surprise that I’ve fallen in love with cinemagraphs. These creations take the concept of animated gifs and raise them all… Continue reading Cinemagraphs: The Refined Animated Gif
