I don’t know if it’s the kind of people I’m drawn to, or if I just got unlucky, but I seem to be friends with people who all want to get married in the next two years. Including myself. Hmmmm…
Anyways, what it means is that I’ve got seven goddamned weddings to go to this year [...]
MY FRIENDS ARE ALL CRAZY
I NEED A WORKSHOP
Every time I scour the Internet for the latest and greatest environmental gadgets to add to the house I want to build, I keep coming back to this website which gives you tips on alternative energy you can build on your own. Granted, you’ll need a welder (yes!), some thick clothes (arrr!), and plenty of [...]
WE’RE GOING TO BE FINE
Sure, global warming and rising pollution will get you down, but what about all the great stuff that is going on? It’s time to ignore the fact that the Northern Ice Cap is going to be gone in a few years and start hoping that maybe we can extend our existence on this planet just [...]
WHAT ABOUT POLITICAL ACTIVISM?
If there’s one thing I wish I could do, it would be to get people to do things. Have that sort of magnetic personality that would make my word be law. The reason? I want to bike across the Bay Bridge.
Once a month the bay area has a Critical Mass bike protest thing. Basically, leave [...]
I AM NOT RUBBER
I was going for a bike ride yesterday to go deposit some checks at the bank when I was creamed. I was coming down the driveway of my apartment complex to go to the road when some teenager came screaming down the sidewalk on a mountain bike and T-boned me.
I haven’t been in too many [...]
ENOUGH ALREADY, WE KNOW IT SUCKS
There seems to be a neverending amount of Wanted trailers on TV, but it can’t get around the fact that you’d have to put my nuts in a vice to get me to watch the whole movie. I watched the first eight minutes or so online and it consisted of Angelina Jolie spreading her legs [...]
ENGINEERS ARE IDIOTS
After the collapsing of a small section of the Oakland side of the Bay Bridge here (no one went in the water, they just ended up going from flowing with traffic on the top of the bridge to flowing against traffic one floor down. Not exactly the kind of thrill ride you’d expect) the powers [...]
THE MOST DEPRESSING CARTOON EVER
Above you will see what I consider to be the most depressing cartoon in the world. Granted, I have not seen every cartoon in the world, but this one holds a special place in my heart. I grew up idolizing Calvin and Hobbes.
For me, Calvin represented the imaginative side that was trying to [...]
PEPE LE PEW IS A RAPIST
Have you ever stopped and thought about some of the cartoons you watched growing up? Looking back on Pepe le Pew I can’t help but think he’s the epitome of a rapist. Sure, he doesn’t whack the girl over the head or drug her drink, but he continually forces himself onto his victim until he [...]
