I’ll admit it, I’m a complete savage. For someone that spends a lot of time working (read: jacking off) and playing (read: jacking off) at his computer desk, I’ve been spending the last couple of years doing so in a chair straight out of a prison flick. Hard, wooden, and not afraid to be turned on its top and sat on, I think it was making getting stuff done in here both more difficult and less erotic than it should have been.
So, I decided to get an office chair today. Not just an office chair, but an executive office chair. Now I have some semblance of fabricated authority when asking my mom for a milkshake, or telling my dog to get out of my room. For your enjoyment, I’ve included a picture of the new throne, which I took from the box and put together with my blood, sweat, and the tiny allen wrench enclosed therein.
Far be it from me to not also brighten your day with another clipping from the Galactic Ghetto Sketchbook®. This one shows our hero Pat Sanders in his most notorious of environs: The Dungeon (R.I.P.).
Like the others, this is dated to 200x, roughly. Probably around ‘02.
I ran into this amusing silly video click featuring a bunch of B-rated Japanese actors portraying Street Fighter characters. The site which referred me to it calls it a “Street Fighter porno”. I figured it wasn’t a scheme just to get more people to pay attention to it seeing as GameVideos tells viewers to confirm if they’re 18. (As if younger people really are that naive… of COURSE they’re going to say they’re 18.)
Favorite line in the film: “You don’t recognize me because I don’t have blond hair like in the game. But I will teach you. Bean, bean Mika.” *pose*
Anyways, check out the footage below…
(Oh, and if you’re 18 — make sure you get your parent’s permission. Pfft, *L*)
(psst — in case you’re wondering, it’s NOT really porno, you pervs…)
Man, I need to pay more attention to upcoming gadget releases. Today, I happened to stumble across an article at MyGamer that offered a small spread on a new peripheral from Sony called… mylo.
Yeah, mylo. *points to pic below*
The article piqued my interest enough that I was prompted to go search the web for more details. Lo and behold, Endgadget was naturally on top of it as seen here. Here’s an excerpt:
“The name refers to “my life online,” ahem, which we assume probably has a little something to do with the Sony’s old school MYLO / My Life Online, a wireless service Sony launched launched at PC Expo 2001 “to offer mobile users an original and personalized way to access information and entertainment content for work and play.” (Yeah, that’s specific.)”
Hm… so it looks like Sony is looking to tap into the Blackberry, Palm, and Sidekick market. No, it doesn’t play games… well, not the UMD format anyways. It looks pretty sexy, but I’m not prepared to fork over $350 for something like this just yet. Besides, it’s missing a few things that would ultimately win me over…. oh, like MP3 functionality… it doesn’t take pictures and there’s no video-recording support? (If those features are included — either article would’ve mentioned it by the way).
Henshin Pimp himself and I have been excited about this one since we read the title and the premise sometime last year. AOOOOWWW MAKE MAH BLACK SNAKE MOOOOOAAAAANNN.
Another Sam Jackson treasure, no doubt.
Here’s an eloquent synopsis, with some additions peppered in by myself (these sections are in red): BLACK SNAKE MOAN Centers on a white nymphomaniac (Ricci) who must be cured of her sexy disorder by an old grody black bluesman (Jackson). She trudges through the swamps and finds his nasty cabin, wherein he proceeds to treat her through the power of his black snake - make it mooooaaaaaaaaaan.
