Let’s FrURL This Club Up!

See if you can find the connection between each of this weeks FrURLSday links. The answer is at the bottom.

Topless Coffee Shop – Maine has been acting stranger than usual lately.

Nintendo8.com – Play tons of Nintendo games online. Yeah, you need to use your keyboard, which is the worst thing about emulated games, but it’ still nice to see that fat Italian play golf.

Project Tandem updated their website. It looks pretty spiffy. Can you believe they did this while riding a bike? They also have a sweet new blog, powered by WordPress!

Brenton Hamilton added some new content to his IV gallery. You should check it out!

SAT Scores vs. The Music You Listen To – This is interesting, but it thinks I’m not smart enough to listen to The Killers. Are you kidding me? Oops, apparently they can levitate.

Jumpman – A super fun and very addictive game. So simple and it comes with a level editor.

Skate 2 Create-A-Spot – Create-A-Spot is the coolest new feature in Skate. 2. I can’t stop moving dumpsters, benches and kickers. I found this video on da ‘tube of someone recreating Stairs to Nowhere, nearly verbatim (unintentionally, I’m sure.)

Spider drawing – The email conversation between a woman trying to get her money and a man who doesn’t have the money to give her. Very very funny. Courtesy of Mat-Thorne.

Glass Top Pool Table – Very strange, but I want it. Also, I think I just found a website Bagwell will like more than Jalopnik.

Ha, I’m just kidding, there’s no real connection.

Signs of the Apocalypse

Perhaps you’ve noticed that strange feeling in the air. It feels like we’re on the brink of something. Maybe it’s something good…but then again, it’s probably something awful. Proof:
Ebay customer pays $186,853.09 for an 867-5309 phone number! I’m sure this individual’s irresponsible use of money has absolutely no connection with the irresponsible use of money that has made the gun industry more profitable than the real estate industry.
(You remember the Tommy Tutone song, right? If you don’t, here’s a live performance on Youtube! Have fun getting that one out of your head!)

Amazon appears to think I’m a cat burglar of fine homes. Thanks for the recommendations guys.

The biggest sign that we’re about to be knee deep in manure from the four horsemen? Limp Bizkit has announced they are reuniting for a tour and a new album. Their reasoning you ask? They belief that the rest of music has declined below where they left off, so their bound to reach stardom again. Makes perfect sense I guess!

I know this was a bit of a downer, but you may find solace in this list of “recession babies.”

LOST “The Little Prince” Review & Comic 2

adambelanger2 Comments

I’ve got to be honest with you, this episode is the weakest of the season so far. Maybe it’s just because I hate off-island Kate, but I would be much happier with an on-island/Desmond episode, until, of course Desmond is chillin’ with Kate in LA.
This episode did do a decent job of clearing up some of the questions I had about the time traveling deal. Yes, you can see what’s going on with past representations of island folk, and you may be able to interact with yourself? Perhaps? Doesn’t that go against the whole “your mind traveling through time, not your body” thing? I remember seeing the beam of light in the preview from last week and being pumped for it. John’s reaction to seeing it was awesome, and it hearkened back to the days of exciting drama that just happened to take place on a crazy island, instead of the current crazy island drama.

+ Faraday pretty much confirmed that Miles is Marvin Candle’s son. Case closed
+ Claire scenes without actually having to listen to anything new from her.
+ Young preggers Rousseau. How long have we been waiting for this?
+ On-island Kate makes an appearance…sweet.
+ Jin? Seriously?

– Jin? Seriously?
– Juliet’s facial hemorrhaging…eww
– Tony the nurse gives it up too easily. What kind of babies is Widmore hiring? Dharma henchmen will take a bullet before giving it up.
– The future inhabitants of the island apparently think it’s appropriate to wear blackface (and suck at aiming.)
– Still too much Aaron.

Bonus:
Alec in Huluwood – For those who “missed” the Superbowl, here’s the amazing Hulu commercial. I didn’t think it was possible, but this commercial actually made me love Hulu even more.

FrURLSday!

The old internet machine has taken a bit of a back seat this week. I’ve got shelves to build, lights to paint and more trail mix than I know what to do with. Seriously, where am I going to put all this trail mix.
Lovely Listing – A blog dedicated to poorly photographed apartments in rental ads. It’s sad that this blog has so much material. The writing isn’t great, but the pictures are hilarious! Courtesy of Ashlinn.
Wainy Days – David Wain’s webisodes. Funny stuff.
Keamy’s Paradise – For those who just can’t get over that season 4 madman.
Vern Fonk I swear to God, these are real commercials for a real insurance company. The northwest is weird.
Turn off your cell phone! – The funny thing is that I originally tried to watch this on my cell phone at work. OK, that’s not the funny thing. The funny thing is the guy trying to kill the other guy (spoiler). Courtesy of Bagtown.

Everything I have ever found funny in the past was just preparing me for this:


Perhaps you’ve already seen it, along with the other 750,000 4,500,000 views it has gotten. Ashlinn says this is what I’m like when I’m drunk. Notice the Bat Boy moment at 1:00.

Strongest Man Unalive

There’s a lot of zombie talk lately, specifically the Austin zombie sign scandal, and the Sundance accepted Dead Snow. The funny thing is that these two stories are in direct opposition of each other. Dead Snow takes place in a winter climate, with Nazi zombies attacking a group of vacationers. If you’re up to date on your zombie knowledge, you’ll know that this is completely unfeasible. Since zombies are literally the walking dead, they have no body heat. They would actually freeze and stay that way in the winter climate of the film. That’s where the Austin “hackers” got it right. “Run for cold climates” was one of the messages displayed on the sign. (Of course everyone knows you can’t just run for a herd of zombies.)
One question has been nagging at me lately though. Are all zombies equal in strength? Technically the flesh and muscle on a zombies bones are not crucial to it’s mobility or function, so does it hold no merit to it’s strength? If not, than would that mean every zombie was just as strong as it’s undead brothers and sisters? Perhaps, but I have a feeling this is not what civil rights leaders had hoped for.

Light Lane – Very cool hypothetical bike light. More stuff like this can be found here:
Bike Hacks – How had I not found this earlier?
The Weish enters blogville!
Fuck Yeah Ryan Gosling – Some very funny Ryan Gosling pictures, my fav.
Dead Man’s Bones – “In the Room Where You Sleep” music video also featuring Ryan Gosling. I should not be this impressed with it, sue me.

If Amy would have just wrote a blog post about Ryan Gosling riding a bike we could have all saved a lot of time.

Class Action Lawsuit

If anybody else wants to partake in a class action lawsuit against ABC to refund the money I had to spend on orthodontic surgery due to how jaw-droppingly good last nights episode was, please email me.
Official review will be up soon.

I know this is an old video, but it’s still awesome.


In more recent news, Obama is encouraging the EPA to approve California’s request to set stricter standards of automobile emissions. You can read more about it here. I’m not sure if it’s a step in the right direction, but at least it’s a step in a direction. Overall, it’s obviously a move towards auto manufacturers building better cars, because I can’t imagine any state deciding to loosen their restrictions at a time like this. Senator Voinovich does have a good point though; the American car companies are already up shit road without a clutch. I don’t believe that poor companies can get away with bad practices though. That’s how America’s poorest people have also become our fattest (sorry for the generalization, I know there’s tons of fat rich Americans too.) I will agree that Obama needs to move this country slowly. It’s like you’ve got a delicate ice sculpture on a flatbed trailer and you’re driving it across the desert. Sure, you need to get it out of the sun and into a fridge, but you also can’t drive so recklessly that it breaks. Here, I’ll draw you a picture:

I hope that clears up how I feel about the issue.

P.S. Ride a bike.
