Thursday Videos… Thursday, Feb 12 2009

I have randomly chosen Thursday’s to be the day when I put up great videos I have found on the web. This week’s videos are  from the same guy. Writing lyrics for old-school video games songs has nearly made my brain explode. I’ll be singing these songs for weeks, or until therapy helps to quiet the voices …enjoy!

The first video comes from the Ducktales Game, which my brothers and I used to play the mess out of…

The other video is added lyrics to Mega Man 2, I’ve been singing this one at my desk all day…

FACT v. FICTION Wednesday, Feb 11 2009

I have been absent from the blog writing scene for a while, and this blog has been silent for a good while. Thus, as naturally happens, crazy rumors and warmongering have sprouted…but mostly rumors, trying to explain what has happened to this blog and why it has not been active in so long of a time. Let me help you seperate the rumors (the warmongering I can’t do anything about) from fact to fiction so that you can have a better understanding of where we can go from here…

FACT   - This blog has not been updated since before Thanksgiving of last year.
FICTION – As far as I can tell, Nazis are not to blame (but that shouldn’t stop you from despising them any less).

FICTION – This blog has not traveled in time to the future in order to save the human race.
FACT – This blogger is confused by LOST.

FICTION – I haven’t slept in months knowing that this blog has not been updated.
FACT – I have been physically threatened often (not sure if it is because of the blog or my devilish good looks).

FICTION - This blog did not go through a “dark” period, where is changed it’s name to DarkFrosting and wore black eye makeup.
FACT – I really want to try this at some point.

FICTION – This blog (and blogger) was in a drug treatment program in which after several months of denial, finally accepted himself for who he is, and learned a lot about life in the process.
FACT – This blogger is really lazy.

FICTION – This blog did not discover a series of good natured robots that could turn themselves into cars, trucks, and tape cassettes, be-friend them, and then help them defend the Earth from much cooler, but much eviler robots who could transform into stealth bombers.
FACT - This would make a great movie! (Or at least, slightly better than mediocore).

Well, I hope that clears up a lot…

Mascots…Nature’s mistake Thursday, Jul 24 2008

I understand most people find mascots to be fun and amusing for the limited time we are exposed to them, but something just makes me uneasy when I see all the potential for destruction they can cause…makes you think…I think…

Can’t tell me nothing… Sunday, Jun 29 2008

How has this video been out for a year and I had never heard of it? Where have I been? What have I been doing? Why do I keep winning awards for things I’m not even involved with? (That’s a rhetorical question, I know the answer, it’s called “Suave”) Anyways, here is a Kanye West video featuring an always funny Zack Galafianakis…

Note: Quick curse word at 1:45 in case you want to skip it…

Edit: The high quality version of this is just sooooo much better…find it here:

How to pick up women Sunday, Jun 29 2008

People are constantly asking me “Aaron, how do you get your face so smooth?” and I tell them that I lather baby oil and Crisco from my chin to my cheeks for fifteen minuted every morning, just like my granddad does. People are usually amused by that answer and continue to ask questions like “Aaron, how do I get the ladies?”, in which I usually say that I have a rare medical condition that allows me to only answer one amazing life skill question a day and then I quickly find the nearest exit and leave. Up until now, no one has ever questioned me on this condition, but the truth is, I don’t have a condition, I just don’t know the answer. So I did some researching ( on the internet, aka “where all my knowledge comes from”) and found a great example of how to court the perfect woman. Have a listen…

Man of the year…

Listen closely, because you can also hear how to verify that the woman you are trying to date is “psycologically normal”, and to make sure the woman knows there is “nothing wrong with you”…

Edit: I can’t figure how to embed this thing on my site, so just click the link and enjoy the brilliance…

I’m supposed to be studying… Monday, Jun 9 2008

I have some incredible test coming up, the likes of which I have never experienced before in my 20 something years of being a student. And yet, instead of studying for it tonight, I went ahead and found the most incredible stuff I could on the internet (and of course I say “incredible” in the loosest definition I could think of)…enjoy my labors…

Worst puppets ever

As a soon-to-be parent, the fact that something like this could be teaching my kid is frightening, especially about a subject so near and dear to me heart. And what is with the joke at the end? Is that supposed to make me laugh? It just made me mad, and you wouldn’t like me when I’m mad…actually that’s a false statement, I’m pretty likable when I’m mad, thanks to my boyish good lucks…

Where I’ve been Saturday, May 31 2008

You may have noticed that I haven’t posted a lot lately. I would love to sit here and write some great excuse why I haven’t had the time or energy to put up a new post. But I won’t do that, I feel it would be irresponsible of me. Instead, I’m going to shift blame on the Vikings. Why the Vikings? Why NOT the Vikings… and I don’t care if it’s the Minnesota Vikings or the Norweigian Vikings, I feel both have had there part to play in the neglect of this website. There, Ive said my piece, let the Vikings hate spew…

Why Carpetball is the best game ever…ever Thursday, Apr 10 2008

Last summer I got really excited about the game of carpetball, one of the best games on the planet. I started talking it up with a few friends and thought that once we began playing carpetball, we would be laughing and playing and shoving each other for weeks and months on end. Well, that never happened. And I feel bad about it, why? Because carpetball is the best game ever.

What is carpetball? Well, once again, Ill tell you it’s the best game ever, but its a game played on a wooden trough that is outlined in carpet. The basic idea is to line up balls on your side of the trough and to be the first to knock all of the other opponents balls out of the trough. “Ok”, you are saying, “this is the best game ever. Tell me more!” OK, that’s not a problem, but I thought I might need to convince you more, so give me a sec to get my bearings…

What’s that? You have never heard of carpetball before just now? Of course you havent! The simple fact of the matter is that the game is too awesome to be widely known. See, the people who already know about it are too busy playing it to be bothered to tell anyone else about it. They will go to extreme measures to play this game. Don’t believe me? Look at these people’s faces…

These people are literally freaking out around a carpetball table and I’m pretty sure no one has even started playing yet. The guy in the back is lifting his heads towards the heavens in utter excitement that there is a God great enough to bestow upon humanity the greatest game ever known. At least, I’m pretty sure thats what is going on. Even if I’m incorrect, you can not deny this other picture…

I dont know where this is, but wherever it is, it should be called “Party City”, because there is no other explanation to describe the immense insanity that is taking place around that carpetball table. I’m not sure, but it looks like their are two tables put together side by side! Can you imagine how many babies were conceived right where all those people are standing? Insane…

I know I have already convinced most of you of how awesome this game is…but I know a guy who is colorblind, so I’m pretty sure those pictures (as awesome as they are) are nothing but faceless blobs to him, so I think I need to explain some more. People LOVE this game. People will do anything for this game. Carpetball.net, the leading website for all things carpetball, explains that there is usually such a frenzy from people who want to play carpetball that drastic measures are taken to decide who gets to play first. It’s first recommendation is to have everyone run a mile and the first one done gets to play carpetball first. RUN A MILE! How insane is that! A normal game lasts around 5 minutes. A normal mile, for me, lasts around 9 minutes…talk about dedication. People are willing to run a mile just to be first to play a five minute game. Another suggestion is too have a kid VOLUNTEER to wash a bathroom so that they can play carpetball first…what? Wash a bathroom for a game? No, but for the best game ever…I guess so…
