Fired AT&T today
Last month I upgraded to their fiber because I trusted them not to lie, but they did. My bill didn’t come down very much, four bucks. The real kicker is their fiber product not even being close to their landlines. … Continue reading
RIP Buster Bunny VI
Rather bummed but my second iPod Touch (from a long line of iPods!) finally gave up as its battery swelled after a decade. Then it became too much effort to keep operating as the home button (some call it a … Continue reading
Surrounded by Assholes!
My co-worker/friend Jason ran into these Assholes at the San Diego Comic Convention last weekend!

The Deep South in one strip mall
When I first shared this picture with a friend who was born a Texan, I mentioned how the mall lacked a gun store to make my joke true. He countered that it’s implied via the liquor store. Damn! He’s right.
Traveller is 46 years old
Forty years ago, I got acquainted with the famous three little black books. Looking back, Traveller was my second RPG. I could’ve sworn Star Frontiers and Bushido preceded it but as I remembered my time at Strake Jesuit, nope. A classmate and … Continue reading
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny: Must See
Seems we were all wrong, 2008’s Crystal Skull was only the finale for Lucas (thankfully) and Spielberg (pretty cliché now). Disney forced Ford to put on the fedora one more time as they digitized his face for flashbacks, and probably more. … Continue reading

Let’s hear it for Placebo!
Placebo’s lead singer Brian Molko calling Italy’s current PM a “Fascist, racist” is on target and certainly better news than Danny Elfman finally being outed as a Louis CK piece of shit; unlike Ariel Pink, I’ll keep my Oingo Boingo … Continue reading
Shame on Texas and the Fascist GOP again
Gov. Abbott, aka Gov. Shitbag, continues to show how cruel and awful he is. Now I have to agree with another saying he’s auditioning for the next GOP cabinet, maybe veep. The Guardian wrote about the horrors here. Once again, Compassionate … Continue reading
I lost all my money at Biff’s and only got this lousy shirt
Fright Rags’ ears were burning today too. I was going to post this latest design I bought from them and blammo! They brought back Spatula City! I’ll probably get Wargames too due to the anniversary of it. What’s really sad is how … Continue reading
Now I know why my pay is low!
I should try this since my cats’ advice to pee on their shoes hasn’t gotten me anywhere.
Not really a Hipster, but definitely my ex-roommate
My second roommate in college, Chris aka Pee Wee, was nuts for the Smiths and REM. I know, it’s amazing we got along for any amount of time. REM I could handle in tiny doses since their fans were on … Continue reading
I thought it was for changing diapers
This graphic could come in handy if your kid is a discipline problem. Just threaten them with a baby changing station, preferably at Pet Smart or Petco!
Amerika needs a Bastille Day
Cartoonist Ted Rall nails it when it comes to Amerikan Complacency which is promoted as Exceptionalism. SCOTUS continues to gut our rights with impunity. Hell, they’re not even trying to hide the bribes they receives. Shit birds Thomas and Alito … Continue reading
David X Cohen’s ears were burning for his birthday!
My third Geeky Jersey based upon Planet Express arrived yesterday! Coincidence? I think not! It’s also just in time for the new season on Hulu in about 11 days. Why the ‘number’ F? For us computer-related workers, F = 15 … Continue reading
1973: Queen debuts with “Keep Yourself Alive”
I discovered this piece of trivia via NPR but they unfairly framed is as the debut of Freddie Mercury’s voice. Yeah, smooth move NPR, if you knew shit about Queen. They were a unit, a democracy as well as a … Continue reading
