Quick update for everyone, first up, this trailer for a movie I didn’t realize was being made:
This made me giggle:
Pretty awesome, old pay phone booths will become free public WiFi in NYC.
Amazing shirts that play off of the “Plumber’s Crack.”
It may be crude, but it’s totally true.
This is pretty awesome:
That’s it for now, but I’ll be back with more soon!
Another fun update for you, let’s take a look at what I’ve found online for you.
First up, need an explosion? Just use this link and click the button. Thank you Old Spice.
And again, if you haven’t seen it, go see The Muppets:
Facebook has announced a new anti-suicide help tool. Pretty awesome! Although there are so many status updates that are just lyrics, this will be tough to work out:
Awesome article: Everyone should work a service job. God how much did I hate folding the basic tee table at Bauer?
George Takai gets us all behind a common cause:
No words can enhance this amazing sign:
Check out this revisioning of the Dark Knight Rises trailer:
Check out the best wedding and engagement photos from 2011 here.
Pantone released their color of the year. Eh, not impressed.
This looks amazing, I had no idea it was being made:
I love Google’s sense of humor, check out the instructions to walk to Mordor.
Occupy Wall Streets becomes Lego Sets! Not really, but cool idea from Slate.
A fun Star Wars Video:
That’s it for now, back with more soon!
I’ll be back later, with a couple of things. First, I’m rewatching the entirety of Dollhouse, I’ll be putting down some thoughts about each episode, just for funsies. Also, I should be back later with another regular post, but I wanted to get some things put up here that I found here.
First up, here’s the debut trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword:
Speaking of, would you like to be a hero? Here’s the Generic Legendary Hero Training Manual!
Ladies and Gentleman…this is how your man can become the man you wish he smelled like…or something like that:
I’ve never realized that there are signers at rock concerts. But apparently, they have lots of problems with Bon Jovi and Lady Gaga, imagine that!
It was only a matter of time before this came around:
Disney is doing a new campaign, putting celebrities into iconic animated roles. I like this one and the Ursula:
Alright, that’s it for now, but I’ll be back later with more, have a great one!
Couple quick things for everyone, more coming later.
First up, the definitive explanation of The Crown:
Hot on the heels of The Super Bowl, and really any professional sporting event:
We knew he was coming back, and here it is. I think the fondu (which for the life of me, and spell check, I can’t write out correctly) was a nice touch:

This bottle sounds amazing, but I don’t really need any more, but maybe a reader is in the market. Also, if you don’t read UpaDowna, it’s a fun site!
Again, Bill O’Reilly is a moron. I can’t stress this enough. Check out the background here, a bunch of fun photos here, including my favorite:
Did you know that The Pope can’t donate his organs? Because that’s helpful. Can we stop calling Catholics pro-life soon?
This looks amazing, and I kind of want to do it:
Rachel Maddow has a great post about what to do with the empty House chamber, since you know, they aren’t doing much.
If you’ve read Blink (I need to) or Tipping Point (I have), check out the Malcolm Gladwell book generator.
Check out this awesome map of good beer. Also, poor Idaho!
And finally, my buddy Ken sent this to me, one of these days, I’ll finish Infinite Jest (after starting it probably 20 or so times). It’s really my white whale.
Couple things for everyone. First up, the Old Spice man is going to be coming back! Check it out:
Jesse Ventura, previous governor of Minnesota and professional wrestler is suing the TSA. Thank goodness somebody is.
Here is a list of all the movies nominated for best pictures, and what their posters would have looked like if they were honest. Here’s my favorite:
Dan Savage is getting a pilot for MTV. And I’m freaking excited!
And apparently Canada is just as behind the times as the U.S. is. Once again, they are trying to remove the ban on gay blood donation.
Here is a mashup I never thought I’d see: Ferris Bueller and Fight Club:
This is kind of amazing, and scary. A woman in the UK had certain connections in her brain burned out by a laser, because they were too active and were causing her depression.
Did you watch the State of the Union? How about all the match-making on with it? While I like the idea behind it, I am kind of sad that it actually turned into celebrity match-making. Sigh:
Do we really have to have this fight again? There is no link between violent video games and violent action in the real world. Otherwise, I’d be out killing people with a lightsaber every single weekend.
Want to learn about a subject quickly? Try Qwiki. It’s still in testing, but really cool.
That’s it for now, catch everyone later!
And I’m back! Enjoy some of this awesomeness as I continue to go through my e-mail, back logs of links and find all kinds of stuff from around the Net for you to enjoy:
Lifehacker takes you through the steps to disable Places on Facebook. As with anything regarding privacy on Facebook, the steps necessary are long and involved (or at least, longer and more involved than they should be), but I did them this afternoon, so they aren’t impossible.
Did you know that the Old Spice man wants to be a superhero? Check out his transformation here:
And in other amazing video, watch this deleted scene from Return of the Jedi, available on the soon to be released Blu-Ray versions.
I came cross a new blog, Better Book Titles. A personal favorite (and what has turned into my white whale):
(It’s really Infinite Jest, which I have started and gotten about 100 pages in at least four times now…)
A Chinese mall has a new “rage center” where women can go in and smash items that were going to be thrown out anyway. Pretty cool if you ask me.
This article is just blowing my mind a little bit:
Intel announced Tuesday that it had made the first chip that sends and receives information using beams of light…And the company expects to make one eventually that can transmit a laptop’s hard drive in one second and the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress in less than two minutes.
One of the designers of the U.S. State Quarters has released a couple parodies, including this wonderful one of New Jersey:

Sharpie is developing a new pen that can be erased for up to three days before becoming permanent. Crazy!

There is a Star Wars convention coming up in Orlando. Even though I’m a huge nerd, I didn’t know about this. But most importantly, they are giving away custom cereal! I really want the Admiral Ackbar cereal, but I’m afraid it’s a trap. Check out Greedo’s and Raisin Han, too!
Quantum Mechanix has some new merchandise, including this awesome figure of Wash from Serenity (I actually just washed that episode yesterday):
Not a picture, but it was an awesome video. More reasons why I love Rep. Grayson!
An Anglican church in New Zealand has some awesome billboards, including this one which I absolutely love:
Here is the other one I’ve found from them:
Did you follow along with the Old Spice one day social media blitz? It was pretty awesome, but I loved reading about how they pulled it off. Sounds tiring, but worth it!
And finally, copyranter takes a look at an ad from Beirut. And their nightlife. Which is apparantly reminiscent of bombs. Sigh.
That’s it for now, but I’ll be back soon after I get some more work done, catch everyone in a bit!
Couple quick things for everyone.
First off, check out The Old Spice Guy helping someone propose:
Have you seen the periodic table of meat? Bacon rightfully is in the first position, being a Noble Meat:
I really don’t have anything to add to the title of this post, except of course a couple of expletives. So, I’ll just say, Stay Classy, Catholic Church.
Speaking of The Catholic Church, for anyone following the Fr. Mark Gruber case, he is now suing.
And don’t forget, if you live in California, to vote to protect traditional marriage:
Just remember:
