• The Final Countdown

    They have taken the radio and the VMAs. We have plugged our ears, but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes…guitars, fiddles in the deep. We cannot get out. A shadow lurks in the dark. We can not get out…they are coming. I am referring, of course, to country…

  • Brace Yourselves, It’s ABOUT TO GET AWESOME

    I found this picture via Jalopnik. I was compelled to write about it. No caption is necessary. Keep looking at the picture. That is the KAMAZ-4326, a Russian truck built specifically for the Dakar Rally. It has won the Dakar Rally a record 9 times, and won every single stage…

  • The Best, The Only, And The Unexpected

    I’ve covered stupid products before. Sometimes they’re advanced (albeit delusional) scientific concepts like the MotionPower kinetic energy capture concept or its bastard child, the grocery store version. Sometimes they’re infomercial products like the JumpSnap or the HD Vision Ultras. Sometimes they’re massively overpriced novelty items like the Porsche watch. Throw…

  • Thank God They’ve Figured It Out

    So, creationists. The basic idea is that God created everything, but from there accounts vary. If you feel like being non-confrontational, you can buy into the idea that everything that science tells us about the world is true, and everything that’s ever happened is fine, but God made it do…

  • Truck On This, GM

    Credit goes to Jalopnik for this story because they found it and they’re super freaking awesome. Credit goes to me for the absurd hyperbole. So in my Hummer post, I may have mentioned in a sort of afterword (that’s a word, don’t you dare correct me) that Ford is an…

  • I Know We’re Not Supposed To Stereotype, But Come On…

    Just a quick story. WARNING: this post contains a very NSFW photo with all the dirty bits covered by a giant black rectangle. If you’re offended by the images that your own imagination will provide in substitution for that rectangle, read no further. If I get complaints about it, I…

  • Useless.

    Know what this is? Well, I know what it looks like… If you thought, “Why, that’s Cal Poly’s new Black Widow car,” you’re right. And also a huge nerd. If you thought “it’s a giant black carbon fiber penis on wheels. With a window.” then you get extra points. It…

  • The Darker Side Of Facebook (The Side With All The Stupid People)

    Facebook is huge. If it was a country, it’d be the third largest in the world. Third. Like holy fuck. 50% of its users log on at least daily, and more than 60 million status updates are posted every day. A while back, Pages were introduced and with them the…

  • Please, no…NOT THE CHILDREN!

    Listen, minions. I don’t have a damn clue how many people actually read this blog, except that it’s a number between eight and . . . well, 6 billion. I could probably narrow down the top end of that just a bit, but my point is that it’s hard to…
