Epic War!

As much as I want my son to stay a baby forever ('cause OMG babies are so cute!), I can't wait until he's old enough that I'm able to play war with him. I mean have you ever gone toy shopping for a year and a half old? It's depressing. He's too big for all the stupid baby toys, but still a year too young for even the simplest Batman playset.

I guess what I'm getting at is that this kid's dad has an awesome beard.

Kenny Powers is the greatest CEO ever

From now on I'm only buying K-Swiss shoes. I mean I have no idea where you can find them (target maybe?) but when I do that's all I'm buying.

The Best Worst Mario Run Ever

Sometimes it takes more skill to be the worst at something than it does the best. Case in point YouTube uber-nerd NotEntirelySure has uploaded a 600 point winning playthrough of Super Mario Bros. Meaning not only does he use up the maximum time on each level but he had to avoid every bad guy and screw up every flag jump and avoid all the coins. It's a modern day masterpiece.

These old Links

Best of the idiot nerd girl meme. I love these stupid things, and this one seems pretty relevant to today's girl geek. I mean I love nerdy girls, and I love Star Wars but if you love Star Wars it doesn't make you a nerdy girl. My wife complained about the all the retcons in the new X-men movie. That's a nerdy girl.

The 11 people you see at the Beach. I can't talk about how awesome this is without spoiling it. Just go check it out.

Exclusive interview with MC Lars. Good stuff, even if you're not into the nerdcore nonsense this is a real interesting read about the state of the indie music scene.

The Histories of Jason Todd and Bucky Barnes. I remember about 10 years ago Tom Breevort told me the only two people in comics that were a sure bet to stay dead were Uncle Ben and Bucky Barnes. Can't wait to see how they bring back Uncle Ben.

Why a Supervillain Team-Up could be DC's best bet. I could care less about another retelling of Superman, but I would watch the shit out of a movie all about the Flash's Rogues. Captain Cold ftw.

Everything's coming up boobs.

A baseball post? Hey, when it involves boobs I'm willing to branch out.

Last night at the old ball game a Red Sox fan decided to feel up his girl on TV. Allow me to digress here, there is no worse fan in baseball than the Red Sox fan. First off most sports fans from Boston are racist idiots who feel that winning is somehow a right of theirs since they had to live through so much losing. Oh booo hooo. Try being a sports fan from Seattle, the only team we've had win a major championship skipped town. Secondly, most Red Sox fans aren't even from Boston, have never been to Boston and wouldn't know the words to Tessie if you scrawled them across their forehead. They like cowboys fans from the 1990s. However, this guy grabbing his girlfriends boobs is a national hero.

Speaking of national heroes. There's a long standing tradition in soccer that at the end of big games players exchange jerseys. It's a pretty cool tradition, especially when you contrast it to how hateful a lot of soccer fans can be. It's also something I've never seen a women's team do, until now.



Sweedish National team star(?) Josefine Öqvist exchanged Jerseys with a very happy Germany Supporter after a game against North Korea. For whatever reason the TV station that broadcast this display of sportsmanship decided to put a giant black censor bar over her sports bra, which makes it look way pornier than it actually was.

Extended look at Bioshock Infinite

Gametrailers posted this 3 hour (ok 15 minute) look at Bioshock Infinite last night. If you can get past all the ads it's pretty cool.

I geeked out pretty hard for the Revenge of the Jedi mention around the 9 minute mark.

Batman Year One Trailer

Why doesn't Warner Brothers just bite the bullet and try releasing one a couple of their animated movies in theaters? Am I the only one that remembers seeing Mask of the Phantasm in an actual theater? Ok, bad question. Here's the trailer for the new Batman animated movie Batman: Year One. Year One just happens to be the first batman trade I ever read, so I guess I have a bit of an emotional attachment to this story. I haven't kept up on all the DC animated films like I probably should have but I'll definitely be checking this one out. At least I will once it's available on Netflix streaming, I'm not made of money you know.

Monster Bikinis FTL

I think these monster themed bikinis by Pale Horse Design are genuinely scary. Something about sharp teeth around the crotch region gives me the heebie-jeebies.

I'm all for this sort of geek chic trend, I have a closet full of nerdy t-shirts to prove it but at a certain point when you're putting zombies on bikinis I think you've gone to far. In fact I think these monster bikinis pose a bit of a safety risk. I mean what happens when a zombie outbreak happens on a beach? Either you're going to get killed by accident because someone thinks you're a zombie or the zombies are going to eat you because you thought it was just your friend Melissa shambling your way looking for a hug.
