Random Thoughts

So is Occupy Wall Street still a thing?

If you think Ron Paul has an actual chance to be president, the kind of lusional you are is the “de” kind.

“Happy Christmas and other holidays that we give added importance to because they occur near Christmas!” sounds more honest.

I like Krampus. Leave it to Germans to say, “Know what the joy of Christmas needs? A scary demon that eats children.”

“If you love Christmas so much, why don’t you just merry it?”

I think there’s more photographic evidence of the Loch Ness monster and bigfoot than there is that anyone actually celebrates Kwanzaa.

One of my favorite Dr. Suess books is much more racist than I remembered. “If I Ran the Zoo” was one of my favorites as a child, but the Asian and African caricatures are a little much.

I can’t wait for the day we’re no longer dependent on corn and can ignore Iowa.

For extra professionalism, I always speak with an English accent when answering the phone.

To make sure it’s sanitary, I boil all my water and then filter it through ground coffee.

Mission Impossible ::SPOILER:: – The mission wasn’t impossible, just very difficult.

Saw there is going to be a sequel to Clash of the Titans; I hope the trailer has the line “Release the Kraken… again!”

One thing I didn’t get about Mission Impossible: Why did the bad guy impersonate his own henchman? Was a twist to no purpose.

Liked the teaser for the next Mission Impossible film:
“Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to use ‘orange’ in a rhyme.”
“That’s impossible!”

“Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to lick your own elbow.” #MissionImpossible

“But won’t it be hard to identify who’s crazy on the internet?”
“That’s why I came up with my new invention: the Caps Lock key.”

Having withdrawal from finally beating The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Keep thinking there must be more Zelda to play. Took me more than a month to get through it. Long game, but very engaging all the way through. Was it the best Zelda ever? Not quite sure, but certainly a contender.

I predict no more than two or three more sucky years until our country has its groove back.

Been playing that Skyrim game. How come a mammoth is harder to kill than a dragon?

Also been playing the new Batman game. I get the feeling he just likes beating people up. At least when played by me. There will be a group of thugs standing around, menacing no one, and I’ll jump in and leave them all unconscious and get rewarded for it.

Tip if you’re new to Skyrim: Mammoths and giants won’t bother you if you don’t bother them. Don’t bother them.

This was my past week: “Baby is asleep; time for video games!” Back to work today.

The root cause of crime is people not getting punched in the face by a guy dressed as a bat.

How many billionaires does our country have? Would any of them make a good Batman?

If one billionaire starts running around punching poor people, soon all will be doing it.

  1. Re: Zelda — Felt the same way when I completed Aralon. Now what? No Jell-O? I’m sad. I really liked killing things and falling down holes and stuff.

    You know who has time to go around punching people? Billionaires, that’s who. If you don’t have super-speed, you need lots of money. I’d be a terrible superhero because I only get paid when I work. “Row of houses on fire? Meh, call the firemen. I’m at work.” If I’m lucky, supervillains will only attack between 5:30 and 10 pm or on weekends.

  2. Happy 2012.
    Yes I yelled a few times last year. And yes some of them started out as ‘Are You F_cking N_ts?’ I still love what you have done with the place. One suggestion…the picture of the misses in the ‘T-Shirt Babe’, nice gun, nice T, nice babe, nasty face. Passing gas is done in private.
    Carry on.

  3. “Nancy Pelosi became a millionare (while in congress) and female so she couldn’t be “Batman” but she could be “Crazy Old Bat!”

    Whoa, whoa, whoa, there, Former Hostage! That’s skating a bit too close to the edge. I happen to be crazy as well as crabby. Being confused with that harridan is not acceptable.

    Harpies have leathery wings – why can’t she be Harpywoman (or, more appropriately, Harpywomyn)?

  4. There is a rhyme for orange. There is a device called an r-hinge. Google it.
    Purple is more difficult. I created a word, burple, to mean a burp you have with your mouth closed. Turns out, “burple” already existed as a fruit drink in times past but is no longer made. I prefer my meaning. Burple wouldn’t be the first word to have more than one definition.

  5. The best part of New Years is that I haven’t had much of a chance to muck it up yet, so things are pretty good at the moment. On the other hand (sometimes abbreviated OTOH), 2012 is a leap year, so I have an extra bonus chance to muck it up.

    I didn’t know that Dr. Suess was a racist. He was prolly a Republican to boot. We won’t go into the imagery of Curious George except to say that his master was a faceless white guy with an expensive hat.

    All children should read Red Light, Green Light repeatedly as children. Then as adults they would be able to know what to do when a traffic light turns green. Many are fuzzy on this concept. Many of these same people vote.

  6. Frank, the Nords eventually killed off all the dragons thousands of years ago. The mammoths survived the ice age ending, AND the Nords. They are tough mofos.

    Plus, your taking on dragons that have just woken up after said millennia of being dead. They’re probably groggy. As they wake up they become harder (ie, they level scale with you), while the mammoths become easy as the dragonborn reaches demigod status.

    “Been playing that Skyrim game. How come a mammoth is harder to kill than a dragon?”

    For God’s sake. You’re a man. Play Call of Duty or Battlefield 3…like real men.

    You mean like 12-year-olds and gangstas and frat boys that actually play those games?

  7. I can’t wait for the day we’re no longer dependent on corn and can ignore Iowa.

    I’m all in favor of the rest of the world ignoring Iowa, too. I dream of the day that the rest of the world leaves us alone.
