Well played

I see your GG Allin and I raise you a Charles Manson

Here's to a deserving audience.

Check this video out!

1. Because the computer is water-cooled.
2. Because the guy's such a nerd. Not so much a Nerdlord of the NES (the guy in the picture)nerd, it's more in the little things. Such as when he says goodbye to the interviewer without even looking away from his computer screen.

The Climate Change Concensus

‘The cooling has already killed hundreds of thousands of people in the poor nations . . . If it continues, and no strong measures are taken to deal with it, the
cooling will cause world famine, world chaos, and probably world
war, and this will all come by the year 2000.’
- Lowell Ponte, Environmental alarmist of the 1970s, warning about the coming ice age.

That was 30 years ago. Just 30 years ago, they were screaming about global cooling.
The same people are now screaming about the opposite.
Its funny until you realize the strong measures Ponte was referring to was spraying the Antarctic ice black, so that it would absorb instead of reflect the sun’s rays and cause the ice to melt. And those were not the words of an illuminated marginal.
These strong measures were seriously discussed in mainstream media outlets such as Newsweek.

Read it I tell you! Its mind buggling how stupid educated people can be!

Uninteresting obersvation # 2,100,231,948

Apparently 1984 was the year of the rat. I just found this out. I wonder if Orwell knew of this...

You can now proceed with ignoring my post.

Ein Neger mit Gazelle zagt im Regen nie

"Ein Neger mit Gazelle zagt im Regen nie"


What's funny with this sentence?
Come on!

No you idiot! Its not funny that blacks are called Neger in german.

...

all right all right, I'll tell you.
Its funny because its a palindrome! AND it means "A black with a Gazelle does not cry in the rain"

Anyways.
I was looking up the internet to find some material from the other side of the Global Warming Panic. Thats right, after reading some of the propaganda from the website of our dear ecoloco friends, I asked myself: why the hell should I believe in what they believe? Isnt there any theory from the other side out there? You know, from those people who dont believe everything they're told?
And I found this.
A pretty interesting piece.
Apparently its the sun who dunit.

Speaking of Weather

Nearing the end of the middle of winter as we are now, my attention turns to an occurence which I find quite frustrating. I have no problem with winter, but the ups and downs get to me. This week is a pretty good example.



If we were going to have a normal winter's week, -13C would not even be noteworthy. However, because it is immediately preceded by a day of 5C and 8C, -13C is gonna be pretty painful.

The white line represents the normal temperature for the period, look how far they stray from it!

I think I'm going to write to Météomédia and get them to change their graphs so that the weather does not change quite so dramatically. I mean, imagine if the graph started at -100C and ended at 100C. We would barely even notice the difference between 8C and -13C.

Ummm.... guys.......

I had a dream I did something bad.



I think the weather's driving me crazy...


...so I'm heading off to the Biodome this week to be in the rainforest for a day.


before I do something stupid...


...who's in?

Here Ye!

Guys, I started a new band with Alex, Alex and She-Alex from work. We're gonna call ourselves Reddest Red

Sweet, uh? The name was inspired by my pubes.

Our demo is righteously known as Doubt That They Are Right.

Here's the cover art. Final montage to come.



Sadly, I think this will all be done in the shadow of Napoleon's side project, as it is the best one so far.

had to...

I know not everybody's into hockey, but this is a good one...and Russian!

Create your own band & album cover!

1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random .
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotations Page and select "random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 .
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days .
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.

let the dorking out begin:
here's my band's album cover:


The De-evolution (or a sorry excuse to post music videos)

I was checking stuff out on the net, like exploding water in the microwave and other crucial things when I stumbled upon a striking example of what Bonerpants calls with much truth the De-evolution (see Brokencyde). At first I was curious about what he meant by that, but now I understand completely. And what scary is it will happen to all of us! Most of my friends have already reached full de-evolution through reproduction.

Anyways.
Here's my first example:
Terry Hall sang for the Specials from the end of the 70s to about 1982 or so. He then De-evoluted to Fun Boy Three.

Here's Terry Hall in the Specials from 1979:

Fucking sexy.


Now Here's Terry Hall's de-evolution:

A little less sexy. Unless you're gay... Ok ok, still fucking sexy, that was a bad example.

Lets check out Johny Rotten De-evolution:

Then...



And now, gets shushed by Judge Judy:



Which leads me to the following conclusion: if you dont want de-evolution ruining your life, follow Sid's trail, and remain forever un-de-evoluted:

Movies

As some of you may already know, I've never been too good at understanding movie plots. I usually get it after the 12th sitting and usually after someone explained it to me. But this time, its just too hard man. Can anyone help me on this one?
You see, I've been watching There will be blood for the 13th time and I still don't get it. How the hell does Daniel Plainview discover that his brother Henry is not who he claims he is?



They're sitting in front of the ocean and then Daniel says something like: "remember that house on the hill? I used to want that house, I wanted to live in it, I wanted to eat in it, I wanted to clean it..." and then Henry goes: "You can have anything you want Daniel, and you should..." and then later on Daniel goes "I'm gonna build me a house around here" and then Henry goes: "Are you gonna make it look like that house you were talking about?" and then Daniel goes:"I think if I saw that house it would make me sick"... and then he freaks out and gets the crazy evil eyes and then he shoots Henry. Whats up with that?!How the hell does he know!?

Phew. I don't know whether it's the cosmo hockey on Monday, two straight evenings of epic Mont-Royal action or just yesterday's Southern Comfort, but I'm all tuckered out. We'll see how I do at the game tonight. But more importantly, I have also have to get back home from work. Better be careful. Wouldn't want this to happen:

Don't say I don't love you.

http://www.fmylife.com/

There are some real gems here. It reminds me of grouphug but less depressing.

Today, I was showing a drama student how to fall off a crate without getting hurt. I broke my leg. FML

Today, my friend had a Coke can on his desk in class. It was empty but I was thirsty so I picked it up thinking I could try to get that little bit of Coke always left at the bottom. When I took a sip I found out he had been picking his fingernails and putting them in the can. FML

Today, I got talking to a really hot guy at a party. He told me that he was only here because he heard the host would sleep with anyone, and he and his buddies had a bet going. It was my party. FML

Today, my girlfriend dumped me proclaiming she wanted someone more like her "Edward". I asked her who Edward was. She held up a copy her "Twilight" book. She was talking about a fictional vampire. FML

Today, the girl I love and I went to visit my parents out of state for the first time. My father grinned and acknowledged that she was a "keeper", at which she laughed and said we were "just friends". I was going to propose to her next week. FML

Today, my boss called me into his office to show me the web site of a potential business partner. When he began to type 'virginia' into google, it auto-completed his search with his recent search for 'virgin boy assholes'. I have to go on business trip with him tomorrow. I'm a young guy. FML

Today my lesbian sister enthusiastically showed me her new strap on. Not only does she get more girls than me, she now has a bigger penis too. FML

Take a Hike!

Look out the window.



Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Cool, then let's go hike the Royal Mount. Napoleon and I did a sweet hike last night. It only made me want to do more! And this weather will only up the fun factor.

Give a me call.

Ughhhh...

So despite the shortcomings of the first Transformers movie, I cant help but stay interested. The reason is simple: I waited my whole life to see a live-action depiction of the cartoon, and this is all I'm gonna get. So I might as well enjoy it. Here's the new full-length trailer. It's not the best quality (because they haven't officially released it yet) but it's still pretty good.



The thing that REALLY pisses me off, however, is the fact that the movie is a giant commercial for GM and the US Military. They both poured tons of money into the production of the film. This was totally unnecessary, of course, because Speilberg is flipping the bill. But I guess he's a cheapskate. Anyhoot, I was on the site today and I just had to capture this from my screen. Notice the insignia at the top of the screen.



Next thing you know, the Transformers will all have a big GM on their foreheads.





hello obnoxitroid,

thank you for thinking of me in such a wholesome way. i did thought these items, in no particular order, might suit your fancy. thank you for your time.

love,

Dear Woody,

Do you ever feel like this?



Of course you do. Well, good news! I read an article today about some neat vibrators.

Exhibit 1 (If you're feeling particularly stylish.



Exhibit 2 recharges in a USB slot! Although I doubt it comes with a Mac. Perhaps you could write to Steve Jobs. When he comes back from sick leave, I'm sure he'd be open to your product tye-in ideas.

Revelation!



If you don't like this, chances are you're getting pretty old!

Choke on this!



I don't care for this, but maybe I'm just not open enough to their artful use of Auto-Tune.

Now my question is, if the "cool" rich kids with the sweet rides and the hot girlfriends feel this much angst, what are the fat poor rejects loosening to nowadays? Also, how can the following crop of kids possibly beat this travesty? Though I can imagine that the guys in this video will manage to dodge parenthood by being sent to jail for donkey-punching their girlfriends.

Also, from what I understand, these walking Trapper-Keepers seem to have mistaken Cocaine and Whiskey for Coca-cola and Whiskey. It's a perversion in every sense of the word.

Umm....

I came across this photo and my brain overloaded. I can't process it. I can't. There are too many weird conflicts going on. I'm scared... someone help me make sense of this!

I always knew

Music + Me = WTF?

Like a diarrhea-lover, I like my shit ecclectic. Still, I wonder...if I like this:



and this



or this



or even this



Is there something wrong with me? No.

And if there isn't, what is wrong with most of humanity for not jumping on the entire bandwagon of music? What is up with the musical chochottes that only seem to like a limited spectrum of music.

And don't get me started of some people I've spoken to who said they only like ''Franco'' music. Since when is language a music category? It's like saying my favourite type of achitecture is breakfast.

I was gonna rant about how I dont care about the environment no more and why you should know but then my overweight neighbours started to fuck.
Does the insurance company covers damages caused to your appartment by the overweight couple that's fucking their way through your ceiling?
I'm not kidding, their total combined mass must be around 500 pounds.
Its like a TaiBo class for rhinos up there.
Holy shit! my computer screen almost fell off!
Thats it!
what the fuck!
HELP MEEEE!!!!!

Geek out with your cock out.



Now I need to borrow a PS2 and go through GOW1 and 2... fuck.

Why I don't cook often

I actually managed to find the perfect combination of food to create the exact taste of cow shit. I took four good things, mixed them together and created a piece of shit. Much like reverse alchemy or la machine à caca. Do you want to know what it is? Oh god, I'm so ashamed:

- Spicy calabrese
- Real Gruyere
- Dijon mustard
- Chipotle flavoured wrap

(The only ingredient missing is shrooms)

Now, now. You may ask why I thought this ghastly creation would ever be a good idea. Well, maybe I didn't know what else to do with what was readily available. Maybe I still have a bit of laziness left in me after those last 2 months of hell and an awkward evening at the gym. Or maybe I subconsciously wanted to eat something as harsh and depressing as the music I was listening to. I don't know. What I do know is that, not unlike after my previous soul blackening dining experience, I am now back on the right track towards good eatin'. Thank you, shit sandwich!

Fire!

Ok, so some Chinese employee's of Chinese state television CCTV fucked up by using crazy fireworks, blablabla.

I just wanted to post the picture of the crazy ass building in process of being built.



Dude.

Here's what it is supposed to look like when it's done.



I think I've already posted about this. But I felt it was worth it not to check. Anyways, it actually looks better not-quite-built doesn't it?

Guess which movie just came out on DVD today?

hmm hmm...

And guess who bought said DVD today?

The Future!

Have you ever been asked whether or not you'd like to know your future? I've always hesitated.

If you're not sure either, I'm writing here and now that you do NOT want to know.

I was just checking out the do's and dont's on viceland.com/qc and then it struck me. I realized that the stars had aligned to warn me of my future. Here it is.



Since I believe in free will, I'll just take this as a warning for me to respect society's dictates a little more. In fact, I guess this reasonning brings into question my word of advice at the top.

The only part I'm fretting about is that the stars haven't pointed me out what would happen if I was careful. Heh, what's the worst that could happen?

I can't believe this


I can't believe I inadvertently ended up seeing Jonas live last night. I need a solid dose of chaos to set me straight after that experience, or at least a slap in the face.

Nerds! Noidz!

Someone sent me this link, with edited Star Trek clips. Man, when's the last time you said Star Trek?

Anyways, I thought of some of you.

S'do shrooms.

So, two things I wanted to cover:

1) We need to figure out when we can do shrooms. I'm completely overloaded as it is but I should have enough breathing room to get shroomed around spring break which starts on the 23rd and ends on the 1st. I think nerdlord had the same dates and IDK if there are any other factors to take into account for everyone else...

2) I just realized that I bought the DVD below about a year back but have been saving for a day I get really fucked up to watch it. I recall bonerpants, SB and myself watching this one a looong time ago when on shrooms so I'm going to have to bring it along.

My new favortie blog (after ours of course). Nerdy comics for backstabbers, candymen and nerdlords alike.

Snoflakes

During my Mont-Royal camping adventure with Nerdlord and 20hunert, the last two questionned whether no two snowflakes could be alike.

Here is an answer:

''It's a funny question, almost like a Zen koan -- if two identical snowflakes fell, my inquisitive friend, who would know? And can you ever be sure that no two are alike, since you cannot check them all to find out?

Although there is indeed a certain level of unknowability to the question of snowflake alikeness, as a physicist I find that I can address this issue with some confidence. As I will demonstrate, the answer depends to a large degree on what you mean by the question. (Yes, physics does occasionally have its Zen-like qualities.)

The short answer to the question is yes -- it is indeed extremely unlikely that two complex snowflakes will look exactly alike. It's so extremely unlikely, in fact, that even if you looked at every one ever made you would not find any exact duplicates.

The long answer is a bit more involved -- it depends on just what you mean by "alike," and on just what you mean by "snowflake." Let's look at the possibilities....''

Let's not. You can check out the complete answer here.




''about one molecule out of every 5000 naturally occurring water molecules will contain an atom of deuterium in place of one of the hydrogens, and about one in 500 will contain an atom of 18O instead of the more common 16O. These rogues are not exactly the same as their more common cousins.

Since a typical small snow crystal might contain 1018 water molecules, we see that about 1015 of these molecules will be different from the rest. These unusual molecules will be randomly scattered throughout the snow crystal, giving it a unique design. The probability that two snow crystals would have exactly the same layout of these molecules is very, very, very small. Even with 1024 crystals per year, the odds of it happening within the lifetime of the Universe is indistinguishable from zero.''


...





''The number of possible ways of making a complex snowflake is staggeringly large. To see just how much so, consider a simpler question -- how many ways can you arrange 15 books on your bookshelf? Well, there's 15 choices for the first book, 14 for the second, 13 for the third, etc. Multiply it out and there are over a trillion ways to arrange just 15 books. With a hundred books, the number of possible arrangements goes up to just under 10158 (that's a 1 followed by 158 zeros). That number is about 1070 times larger than the total number of atoms in the entire universe!

Now when you look at a complex snow crystal, you can often pick out a hundred separate features if you look closely. Since all those features could have grown differently, or ended up in slightly different places, the math is similar to that with the books. Thus the number of ways to make a complex snow crystal is absolutely huge.

And thus it's unlikely that any two complex snow crystals, out of all those made over the entire history of the planet, have ever looked completely alike.''

There.
