Why skinny jeans suck

Call me a fashion premie, call me a coward, call me old-fashioned. Your insults will bounce off of my gently bootcut jeans that complement me perfectly, unlike the skinny jeans that grace the figures of girls world-wide. Big, small, inbetween, the skinny jean is NOT your friend. Thinking it is only serves to allow you [...]

Pretty sure robots are going to take over the earth

In a profound bliss that can only be brought along by the stomach flu one day, severe exhaustion the next, coupled with a severe fear of eating anything, I have stumbled upon another lovely nail to hammer in humanity’s coffin regarding the robot uprising. The charming folks over at geekologie.com have reported on robotic substitute [...]

Carol: The Four-ce Is With Her

My old co-worker and generally ornery yet lovable guy Jason has inducted me into a ‘Four Things Meme’ which roughly translates as a virtual chain letter in my opinion. Thanks for being FIVE years old Jason! Since he tagged me with it on the 27th of May and It is now I think… [...]

Carol’s Update and Apology

To put it bluntly, I got laid off. This happened some time in December, but since the company kept me on through the end of March, I decided to mum’s the word on my recent axing. I’ve been away from ‘conventional’ work now for about a month and a half, scouring job sites, boards and [...]

My Friend Andy

In perhaps his awesomest music video of all time, is my buddy, Andy. I saw this video before I met him, and ever since, I’ve been dying to see it again. So I’m putting this baby up so others can enjoy, and so I don’t have to search youtube for it every time I want [...]

Oh. My. God. Gnomes are Alive!

With the advent of this brilliantly filmed and high quality video of an actual gnome walking around,  there is only one thing I’m wondering. How long before the filmer gets picked up for b-horror flicks. That is one HELL of a scream.
Watch. With the volume on low. You’ll thank me.

Delicious and Retro: The Atari 2600 Cake

Aren’t the best tasting cakes really, really old? Well normally not, but in this cake, case (I actually did mistype that,) I’m ready to pop that joystiq in my mouth. As a fellow video game cake nerd, I heartily approve this creation by Lisa, Fredrick Johnson’s buddy. Good job to all!

Paranormal State: So Spooky, So Addicting

Yesterday was officially a productive day. Being the first weekend after New Years, this was the first weekend in my life that I actually took down my Christmas decorations in a timely manner. Normally it’s some time in February or a member of my family gets fed up waiting and does it without me. But [...]

On Jessica Alba Being Pregnant

Me: I can’t believe jessica alba is preggers. i hope she doesn’t lose that body.
My Husband: i can’t believe someone actually has sex with her without spontaneously combusting because she is soooo hot.
Nicely put.

Happy Halloween!

Last night I sacrificed my time and my good hand, which is now a carving claw to produce one hell of a pumpkin masterpiece.

If you don’t recognize this masterpiece, it’s Beetlejuice in snake form (When he comes out and threatens Lydia?) So very awesome. My pumpkin prowess has just increased by 1 point. Last year [...]
