of course we knew rickrolling was “past its prime”

but the Macy’s Day Parade thing…wow.   *sound of nails in coffin*
I mean, yeah it’s funny but…wow.  Still, good way to go I guess.  Maybe this means people will finally stop beating it to death?  Naaaahhhh it just means there’ll be another few months of revivals.
I don’t feel like embedding the video.  It’s out there in [...]

Incredible Hercules 123

onefinemess | November 28, 2008

was very good.
But I’m really bummed about the little gorgon chick- she would have made a great supporting cast member.  Hopefully we a get a quick comic turnaround ressurection.  Plus, Cho didn’t even seem bummed or angry about what happened – that was the suckiest part about the ish.
[edit: She shouldn't be too dead right?  [...]

Heroes: Eclipse, part 1

onefinemess | November 25, 2008

I want to say “load of MEH” BUT I know it’s just the setup for the boom, and the setup is always clammy.
Random points & observations:

It was nice to see Peter tell Nathan off for being a douche, but we know Peter is a whole different kind of douche (the whiny, emo kind).
It was nice [...]

some links

onefinemess | November 21, 2008

Amusing graph.
Really bad porn intro.  Like, really. bad.  Not bad/graphic.  Watch it, it will probably amuse you.

27 websites that became books. I’d recommend against buying any of them…milk and cows and all you know.
Haliburt tries to patent patent trolling. SERIOUSLY.  !?  Sigh.
Surfer, huge deadly secret wave.  Some pics.
140 years of UFO sighting pics.

Squadron Supreme 5

onefinemess | November 20, 2008

was a waste of time.  Or maybe the art is so ugly and muddled it makes the story seem nauseating as well.

Thunderbolts 126

onefinemess | November 20, 2008

I think I’m done with this title now.  My pullbox will now be 2 books lighter!  Good and bad I suppose, I guess it balances the “dark avengers” series I’ll have to try out…
Why?
Short version: The series used to be full of characters I could identify with, and had redemption as its central theme – [...]

I just opened a coke can with my fingers

onefinemess | November 18, 2008

and boy was it weird.  It felt so alien and…awkward.  Like something vaguely remembered from a past life.  Which it basically is.
Those of you who know me may have noticed that I always used my teeth to open them.  Unless it was for someone else, but that was really rare.
So, I figure I’m 30, my [...]

I suppose I should talk about Vegas

onefinemess | November 17, 2008

…but what happens in Vegas stays there or some bullshit right?
Nahh, seriously we didn’t get into too much  (ok none :p) trouble.  Just lots of drinking and walking and the occasional eating and gambling.
What am I talking about?  I went to Vegas for a few days with some old friends ostensibly to celebrate my 30th [...]

last night’s Heroes episode

onefinemess | November 11, 2008

reminded me a lot of previous sucky seasons for no reason in particular.  I can’t put my finger on it, but it just annoyed me.
The ending was also stupid, and just drama/cliffhanger ending for cliffhangers sake.
Seeing the past threads tie in with the future/season one was ..cute at least.  And Angela’s behavior makes more sense [...]

revenge of the gnats

onefinemess | November 9, 2008

We’re being invaded right now.
Not quickly, or overwhelmingly, but monotonously and sparingly.
????
Seriously.
These little tiny fly/gnat things are spawning by our sink or something.  We’ll kill 3-5 of them, and then there are ALWAYS 3-5 of them in that area. Never more, never less.  You’d think if they were hatching or something the #s would increase [...]
