Listen to Wilford

4 04 2008

I would never make fun of people with Diabetes, and I don’t. Diabetes runs in my family, and it’s not something I take lightly. But when I saw this video on Holy Taco, I couldn’t help but laugh. Wilford Brimley has been an advocate for Diabetes through Liberty Medical for a long time, but he’s also been the butt of many jokes in reference to his commercials, most notably by ‘Family Guy’. But Nathan Eldridge, of morningrise.net, created this hilarious remix video of his Wilford’s commercial. Diabetes is definitely not a laughing matter, but this video definitely is. Enjoy!

Watch out for the Beetis!





April Fools Day: Warcraft Hero!

1 04 2008

So, for the second time this morning, Blizzard Entertainment launched an April Fools day offensive. After ‘launching’ their new Warcraft console game, they announced a new player class for their upcoming expansion pack, ‘Wrath of the Lich King‘. The ‘Bard’ was announced as a new player class that would call for some pretty ‘nifty’ keyboard usage. Blizzard also announced that they’ll be shipping out a guitar-based keyboard, because the interface of the bard class will look somewhat similar to that of ‘Guitar Hero’. Enjoy the photos!

We built this city…

A classic gamer’s guitar!

I gotta have more cowbell!





April Fools Day: A Gamer’s Prank

1 04 2008

As some of you readers might not know, I do enjoy a nice session of Warcraft. But what I didn’t know, is that the creators of Warcraft, over at Bilzzard Entertainment, love a good prank. So when I woke up this morning, forgetting that today is April Fools day, I saw a page for a new console-ready Warcraft game. By the middle of reading all about it, I finally realized that it was all a big prank. Silly Blizzard, you ‘half’ got me! What was even funnier about the prank, is that they went through the trouble of creating a trailer for this ‘new game’. So, without any further interruptions, I bring you: “World of Warcraft: The Molten Core” (for the Atari 2600 platform)

Has Sound! Woohoo!





Presidential Pokemon

31 03 2008

While the first video shows Barack Obama as the winner of the upcoming presidential election, that doesn’t mean I share that same vision of ‘hope’. As it turns out, I’ve lost all interest in this year’s Presidential Election. I’m a big fan of Ron Paul, and I hope he shows up during the final campaigns as a nominee. Wait, did I say Ron Paul? It’s too bad you can’t sense sarcasm from reading words on a screen. If you could hear me read that last sentence back to you, it would make me laugh too! But aside from all that hoopla , I’ve been completely turned off by all of the inter-party bickering between Clinton and Obama supporters. As a registered democrat, I no longer feel like I’m part of a united party, but part of a divided a party. (Sarcasm… taking over… make it stop!)

(Thanks CNN and FoxNews for brainwashing me with those terms, and thanks K.C. for helping me point out my own sarcasm!)

But I digress… Enjoy this awesome clip of one person’s vision of this year’s presidential race!

For some reason, ‘Obamachu’ just sounds wrong…

It could also go down like this…

She should have used “Bill’s Big Mouth”!

Since a good majority of readers who’ve left their comments here and on other sites haven’t been able to read into my sense of humor and assume I’m actually supporting anyone, I’ll have to get serious for a moment. If the selection for President of the United States came down to my vote, it would have to go to these guys. (Serious? Me? Did you fall for the sarcasm again? I just can’t stop!)

Photo Time: Clintbama Hillariousness

21 02 2008

I’m a registered Democrat, but I’m not a fan of Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton… yet. Neither candidate has given me that tingly “I want him/her to be president” feeling. But one thing I appreciate, is the amount of comedic imagery that comes out of elections like these. There’s bound to be photoshop gurus out there who love to create parody images of candidates, as well as just plain creative people who love to put together a good joke. I’ve found two photos that I want to share with all of you, that I think sum up just how funny election time can be. But remember, I’m not a fan of either candidate, so posting these photos is not tied to my own opinions at all. Although, I’d love to hear what you think about them. Enjoy!

Borat Obama
Very Nice!

Clinton Cracker
Ouch!
