The Return Of The South American Gnome

October 27th, 2008 by frankie23

Oh noes, it’s back! There’s been a second sighting of the South American stalking shorty! Okay, this video is even harder to make out than the previous one, but… geez, that walk. It’s just so wrong. Sends shivers down my spine just watching the damn thing stroll across the street. Well, stroll may not be the right word. More like skitter. Ugh.

For those who don’t remember, here’s the first sighting.

Food Songs

October 4th, 2008 by frankie23

This is awesome. Joss Whedon’s brother Jed, and his female companion Maurissa Tancharoen, co-writers of the wonderful Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, apparently write songs in the car on the way to get food, about the food they’re getting. Then, on Labour Day weekend, they got drunk, sat in front of a webcam, and sang them to us. Revel. I said revel!

“The taste of her cherry chapstick…”

I want to hate this song, but I can’t. It’s just so fun! And I must say, Miss Katy Perry is a very lovely woman. I hope she manages to be more than a one-hit wonder, but if not, at least we’ll all have this song to remind us when drunken bi-curiosity became mainstream.

Creepy South American Gnome

March 19th, 2008 by frankie23

In the Argentinean town of Salta, some kids were sitting around, doing their typical juvenile delinquent bit; wearing hoodies, sipping some local beverages. One guy, he’s recording it all on his cellphone, yes? Cellphone cameras are built for exactly this sort of thing. Then, they see it, lurching across the road…

Frankly, I don’t know what the hell this thing is, and I’m not sure if I want to. But it creeps me out, hardcore, and that, I like.

Furries Vs. Klingons: Bowling Down The House

October 1st, 2007 by frankie23

I have no words. Well, that’s not true, just most of them are onomatopoeias, such as huh, aroo, bltzrgrbl, and the like. I mean, really, I’ve seen a lot of stuff on this old web here. I remember when goatse.cx was still fresh, I used to MUCK, hell, I first used a text-based brwoser. But this, this is something the likes of which I have never seen before, and, indeed to my regret, will never be able to unsee. So, I share my pain with you, loyal sycophants (or is that just sickos?) so that you too may know the painful rapture of seeing a giant cartoon fox bowl, granny-style, versus an obese Klingon. Yeah.

Phoenix Wright - Boot to the Head

August 17th, 2007 by frankie23

Combining the classic Frantics skit “Boot To The Head” with Phoenix Wright characters isn’t something that would have ever occurred to me. Thank Eris that it did to Mr. CMSPyroWolf, because this is by far the funniest thing I’ve seen this month. Oh, my sides, they doth split.

Peanuts, by Charles Bukowski

Peanuts, by Charles Bukowski

There’s not really much a person can say about this, except pure genius. Peanuts, by way of Charles Bukowski; a sad tale of eight year olds, alcohol, and emptiness.

Woman convinced to re-enact rape

July 19th, 2007 by frankie23

Taken from the headlines of the Ann Arbor News:

An Ann Arbor man is facing rape charges after police said he convinced a victim of a previous sexual assault that he wanted to help police by re-enacting the crime early Saturday morning.

I must say, that’s a new one in the ways of pick-up lines for me. “Oh, you poor thing. You know what I bet would help? A re-enactment! C’mon, we’ll do up the living room; you can use your bears!” I really wish I was exaggerating here. Well, maybe a bit on the fruity side, but really, read this from further down the article:

The woman said Stephens, whom she had known for several years, saw her and approached her in a grocery store about a week ago. During their conversation she said she was sexually assaulted in early May and that police were investigating but had not made an arrest, reports said. At the end of that conversation he agreed to fix her air conditioner in the near future, she said.

As the victim prepared for bed after midnight, Stephens came over holding a brown paper bag with a bottle of tequila, reports said. She told police that he said he had a friend in the police department who was interested in the case and suggested they re-enact the incident for “vital” information.

She agreed and they began drinking, as on the night of the previous assault. At one point they even rearranged furniture and placed stuffed animals in chairs to represent other people who were there that night, police reports said.

The fact that they actually used her stuffed animals for bystanders really tickles me. Okay, so, this guy you kinda know comes over to your house at midnight to “fix your air conditioner”, armed with a bottle of tequila and a hair-brained plan he got from his “friend” the “police officer”, and you don’t get the least little bit suspicious? I mean, I’m not one to play blame the victim or anything, but seriously, this girl needs to get her danger awareness ramped up. I mean, she just had her traumatic incident a little over two months ago, if that. Shouldn’t she be at least a little paranoid, if for no reason other than just post-traumatic stress? Some people just have no survival instincts nowadays. At least they guy’s been caught and charged though; I’d hate to think such a stupid and perverse plan would be rewarded by him escaping his just desserts.

Ghetto Wine & the 40 oz.

July 17th, 2007 by frankie23

Wild Irish Rose

It’s painfully obvious at this point how fresh and new this blog is, however, it’s actually an extension, a branch, if you would, from my LiveJournal account. I just decided I wanted something a bit more robust for my newsier posts, possibly with a bit of collaboration. I do love skimming through my old posts, clicking on years-old links to see if they still work. On this note, I was greatly pleased to find that the 40 oz Crew is still rolling along. I mean, when it comes to ugly white kids getting hella drunk on shitty beer, these guys take the cake! My memory is a bit fuzzy, but I’m pretty sure that’s the same site design they had five years ago. From that lovely locale we move along to the intriguing BumWine.Com, a petite little site which gives you some background information on the top five tipples of homeless alcoholics, as well as a smattering of other hooches. But wait, there’s more! Both Ghetto Wine and Bad Beer provide their own whimsical, badly-coded takes on the cheap stuff.

Personally, I’m a whiskey man myself.
