LEGO Bill Lumbergh of Office Space
So it’s not “to the letter” accurate because the torso isn’t a two-tone shirt but the suspenders, coffee cup and glasses are the key to making Lumbergh. Normally LEGO doesn’t make such a torso, I scored it from a minifig … Continue reading
Matt sporting a Japanese lawyer game
Another gift scored from the Classic Gaming Expo in late July. I often noticed how Matt would use the character on the shirt as his avatar in electronic forums because I recognized it from a weird game the Wii offered. … Continue reading
Blast from TSR and my Sci-Fi past
A couple Chupacabracons ago, I scored a used copy of Knight Hawks which was the disappointing starship rules addition to Star Frontiers, TSR’s pretty weak attempt to break into Sci-Fi, again. The first two were Metamorphosis Alpha (trying to transform Expedition to the Barrier Peaks into … Continue reading
Brick Fiesta Austin 2019! Part Two
Return of the Xenomorph Attack!
RIP Ernie Colón
Another great guy who worked in Comic Books passed away last week. I never gave his heritage any thought because he went by the Anglo version of Ernesto, ergo, he was an American like Jack “The King” Kirby (Jewish) or … Continue reading
St. Reagan & Tricky Dick’s racism shouldn’t be a shock
This week, a long overdue recording of a conversation between two major assholes responsible for the rise of Orange Foolius and American inequality finally got released. It has been held back for many years, I think at the request of … Continue reading
Kathy R wearing her favorite video game
A gift I scored for my friend Rev. Kathy because this is her favorite cabinet game whenever we hit Pinballz. I recently looked up Rampage‘s history too. I could’ve sworn I started playing this in high school but I was wrong, … Continue reading
This was never funny…
Regardless of 2016’s outcome. Ugh! Then again, I shouldn’t expect places such as Party City nor those temporary Halloween supply joints to have any sense of good taste. I don’t think even the EU finds much humor in the world … Continue reading
Brick Fiesta Austin 2019! Part One
It was Austin’s turn again to host the annual Brick Fiesta, a celebration of all things LEGO, namely a chance to check out the state’s MOCs (My-Own Creation), shopping for official-unofficial accessories (I got a Star Wars set for $50 that went … Continue reading
Texas continues to lead in stupidity
Nevermind The Onion‘s ongoing dark joke about America, the Laboratory for Bad Ideas (the Texas Legislature) and Gov. Shitbag signed a series of laws to give Ammosexuals boner pills. These will soon go into effect, allowing morons to carry guns into … Continue reading
Made a trophy with a toy and super glue!
Since Megan has clobbered us all lately in exercise challenges via Challenges (iOS app) due to her dedication, not necessarily my slacking, I made her a little trophy to celebrate her three-month streak. They key to getting the Playmobil ninja … Continue reading
Revenge of the Nerds
This month’s theme is dedicated to the 35th anniversary of Revenge of the Nerds. It remains one of the best Teen Sex Romp movies made in the Eighties; Animal House appeared five years earlier and started an avalanche of these. According to … Continue reading
Funny wordplay is
Rather obvious which brand of vehicle this was on.
Dental Work Extra: Root Canal not needed!
This morning I saw a specialist I was referred to by my dentist to make sure my anterior teeth 7-10, the busted ones on my upper jaw, are alive. After a couple X-rays, including a really cool 3D take on … Continue reading
