Microsoft says next Windows won’t be as annoying

Now there’s a headline that tells it like it is. Even Microsoft knows that their software is annoying lol

Best headline I’ve read in a while. A little too obvious to be a freudian headline, but still, the imagery in that headline is enough to make you spit out your coffee.

So I think I’m going to try this whole NANOWRIMO thing this year. I doubt I’ll finish, but it’s worth a try. And I plan on totally improvising my writing so no outlines or anything. I’m just going to write and see what happens.

Watched a coupla movies yesterday. The first was Happily N’ever After and I’d just assume forget I ever saw it. I can’t decide which was worse, the animation or the acting. Or maybe the plot. Or the nonexistent jokes. Or, well anyway, it sucked. Worst kids movie I’ve seen in a long time and a real blight on Sigourney Weaver’s track record (I just hope they paid her well).

The other one was Run Fat Boy, Run. Can’t go wrong with a Simon Pegg movie. It wasn’t as roll on the floor, split your seams funny as Hot Fuzz or Shaun of the Dead, but it was still a fun, cute (and gross at parts) movie.

Just read this in a BBC article

“Jim Carrey is also set to play seven characters in a computer-animated version of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.

The movie will use motion-capture technology similar to that seen in Beowulf, the Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Polar Express.”

Wow. Just Wow.

7 Jim Carey’s, Charles Dickens, Beowulf and The Polar Express all wrapped up in one horrific movie. The person responsible for this should be tied to a chair and forced to watch Ace Ventura over and over and over.

All right, so there’s this doomsday device that’s going to recreate the big bang or somesuch nonsense and what do journalists do? Write a bunch of Freudian headlines. Here are two that stood out…

Big Bang experiment gets turned on

Straight to the point headline about the latest porn movie, oh wait, it’s about a science experiement?

Scientists beaming after test of big atom smasher

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080911/ap_on_sc/big_bang_32

This one at least lets on that it’s about science, but I would think that scientists “beaming” would be an unwanted side effect of messing with atoms.

Every once in a while some spam just stands out for sheer stupidity or bad writing or absurdity. This was a spam comment that some spammer tried to put on this blog. I have not edited it at all except to remove any links and such and extraneous line breaks. I found this one interesting because it’s actually a story. A poorly written, depraved, kinda gross story, but still. And if you’re faint of heart or easily offended, don’t bother read. It’s quite explicit

She came out of the restroom and turned off the bathroom light. Chrissy spread her young legs wide as my tongue ran up and down the length of her virgin slit. Joann, How’s she doing?” The members realised that of course she could not be spitted, as the metal would cause problems in the microwave. Lately, I’ve come to realize that I’m not quite the straight as an arrow type I always considered myself. He managed to get his lips around the straw and drank the sweet syrupy drink she had left.

AHHHHH! Yyyyyyyyyyrrrrrgggggh!’
As I eased from the table and wrapped the towel around me I move to make a closer inspection.

As soon as you finish with my son and Tommy, I’m going to let you eat my hairy twat. Luckily my breasts where soaked up enough so that they did not hurt much while slapping against the wall ! She also attached each of his ankles to a buckled cuff at either end of a long metal bar. After a moment of confusion he immediately noticed his jaws were fused open with a large object stretching his mouth to an extremely uncomfortable position, and he was drooling profusely.

Well if you haven’t guessed yet we are all members of a rape gang, and everyone here wants to fuck your fanny, arse, mouth and anything else they can think of.”

He wished he could watch, could see her as he had never seen her naked although he had imagined it many times. The blonde is from L.A. I hurried into the shower as fast as I could, knowing that I only had enough time to dry my hair and get dressed. As the bucket emptied, she finally began to feel the bloating feeling that goes with such an invasion. Come on let’s do it again.”

Chrissy was just a little too shy to fingerfuck herself while I was there.

So they started running that particle accellerator yesterday. So far we haven’t been sucked in to a black hole. Of course it will probably be a little while before they start smashing atoms

It’s kind of neat to see an experiment on this scale. Let’s hope it actually does something. It would really suck for it to be a bust.

In related news Stephen Hawking, bless his soul, has bet $100 that they won’t find the so-called “God” particle lol. I’m with Hawking. That man knows stuff and if he says it won’t find anything, then it won’t

Of course it could just blow up Europe…

Ah, the internet. My poor silly underloved blog is getting barraged with Spam. Thankfully I don’t let anyone comment around here without my approval, so I just go through and baleet it all. Annoying though. Im having to baleet all these bogus users.

So summer is almost coming to a close. Not sure whether I’m relieved or frustrated. It went wicked fat but it was a crappy summer. Rain and work and medical and car paroblems, bleah.

On the plus side, Im finally making progress on my comic. And Ive been able to get Vue to work. So hopefully this new format etc. will be more successful.

:D

X-Files I Want to Believe Review

In a summer of blockbusters and big budget comic movies, it’s the new slow, quiet, suspenseful X-Files movie that has impressed me most. It doesn’t hurt that I’m a big X-Files junky, but seeing as there was no a single alien even mentioned in the movie (unless you count the jab at GWB) there are probably many X-Files fans who weren’t happy with the movie.

In fact it’s the things that weren’t typical X-Files that made me like the movie most. First off its kindof a romance. Or at least a large part of the movie was about relationships and coming to terms with your past. Secondly it was more of a suspense/thriller movie than anything paranormal.

On the whole though, it was just a good movie. It was suspensful without being gorey (could have easily turned into torture porn but it didnt) and emotional without being sappy. It’s the kind of movie they rarely make any more. It wasn’t about the effects, though there were plenty of explosions. It really was about the characters. In other words, just a great movie.

Now if only they could have come up with a better title for the movie…
