This week on a very special The Walking Dead

Ever wonder what The Walking Dead would look like as a sitcom from the 80s? Well then, Merry Christmas. Here's what Santa got you.

Purple Haired Links

Newt Pledges Moon Base by 2020.Woo Woo you know it! I've been really bummed about the level of crazy in the Republican primaries every since Herm Cain dropped out and people stopped listening to Michelle Bachman. Thank goodness Newt promised a moon base. If I was Mitt Romney I'd immediately counter with an Ayn Randian undersea utopia.

How to Eat Food. Ugh, Candy Corn is the worst. What's it made out of anyway? Ear wax and batteries?

Ong Bak Video Game coming never soon. I'll say it, Ong Bak 2 and 3 were awful movies. When is Tony Jaa going to get it? I don't care about Elephants!

The Return of the Neo Geo. Following the traditional Neo Geo business model these handheld units will cost $800 and you won't know anyone that has one. Still that one game they had at Spaceport where you play first person as a Ninja.. man that thing is awesome!

Adam WarRock's Waka Flocka Swanson

One of my favorite Nerdcore rappers Adam WarRock recently recorded a tribute EP all about the TV show Parks & Rec. It's not quite as good as his Firefly EP but it's better than the X-Factor one. Of course this song about Ron Swanson is off the heezy yo.

Off the heezy, that's stll a thing right?


download the entire parks and rec ep here.

The wireless signal is strong with this one

This Korean cell phone commercial staring Darth Vader brings up several good questions. First of which is why do women's bathrooms in Korea have some sort of giant communal sink in the middle of them while still having smaller sinks with mirrors in the traditional spot? Do you have to wash your hands twice?

Xbox rumors are just rumors.. for now


For whatever reason there were a lot of Xbox 720 rumors flying around today. It's kinda silly to start speculating on a console that first off won't be called 720 and secondly, is at least 2 years away. However that doesn't mean we shouldn't do it. What else are we going to do? All these TPS reports? pshaw

The big rumor here is that the new Xbox will have some sort of built in feature that will prevent it from playing used games. As someone that picks up used games all the time, I have no emoticon that expresses my frustration with this rumor.

I get the problem the video game industry has with the used game market. Every time someone buys a used game the publisher gets nothing, but how is that any different that say a car, or a book, or a DVD copy of Hard Ticket to Hawaii? Once I have bought a copy it's mine to do with as I please. If I want to let a friend borrow it, or get ripped off selling it to Gamestop, that's my prerogative.

The only way I can see the general gaming public not losing their shit about this is if they decided that in 2013 we're ready to skip the discs all together and just go with digital copies of games. I'm sure that won't get anyone's bandwidth throttled.

One Lego to rule them all

Here is the first drool worthy look at the Lego Lord of the Rings minifigs. You would think this is a good thing, but it's not. Either I buy these for my son and he won't let me play with them or I buy them for myself and don't let him play with them. I don't really see a middle ground here.

Sucker MC's better call me sire

LOL, that dog thinks it's people.

If you've been paying attention, and I don't know why you would, you've probably noticed a significant lack of activity here. Last week during snowpocalypsemaggedeon 2012 my house lost power for about 4 days. Then, the day after we got it restored, I had to report for federal jury duty.

I didn't get sellected for a jury because I'm super racist against white people but I still lost precious blogging hours. It will probably take me a couple of days to get back into the swing of things. I mean all these TPS reports aren't going to file themselves.

I find your lack of fleas disturbing

Here's some dog's barking the imperial march. Some of them are dressed up as Star Wars characters. Honeslty I have no idea what's going on here. I think this is a commercial for a superbowl commercial.

I'm way behind today and I don't have time to look this up. My house was covered in so much ice this morning it looked like Superman's fortress of solitude. The only reason I'm at work is because the power went out. I guess what I'm saying is look a dog with a puffy tail!
