snl

I haven't actually watched an episode of SNL in so long. This absence of funny made me make an SNL compilation disc (it's a VCD). I tried to remember some of the funnier skits, and mind you it was only one CD so I couldn't fit that much in. I included:

• Justin Timberlake in Punk'd
• Mike Myers in Phillip the hyper-hypo kid
• 2 episodes of Chris Kattan as Mr. Peepers
• Will Ferrell as Robert Goulet singing hip hop
• Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken in behind the music with the Blue Oyster Cult (more cowbell!)
• Justin Timberlake in the Omeletteville skit
• Toby Maguire in the "simmer down" skit
• Matt Damon in the Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears dance-off
• Justin Timberlake in the Barry Gibb talk show
• Will Ferrell in Celebrity Jeopardy

I dunno if that's all of them, but they are all so funny. I might make another one if I can find more, so please, tell me what your favourite skits are!

the man is holding me down

I have some sweet ideas for some videos I want to make. Stuff like from this site: Annieisms, is it? (this girl has some sweet vids, I recommend them). I could borrow my cousins' camera, but I wouldn't be able to edit it on my computer! One more reason put out there to show that I need a new computer. Have you seen Apple's Aperture? Photoshop by Apple, cool nonetheless (one word?)


*Proceeding to cry you a river.*

boom, headshot!

So funny.

EDIT: For clarity, FPS = first person shooter.

monopoly

What's a guy to do if he is itching for some golfing in the middle of November? Go to the Golf Dome right? Well, as I found out last night on the web site, it costs $27 for an hour of using the range on the weekends! $27 an hour! I might succumb to the urges later, but right now, I'll save my $27.

I'm all about the Bell cell phone commercial right now. The one with the reindeer having drinks, "it's the system."

fair and balanced

I just watched a documentary in my sociology of sport class called Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism. It basically shows how much power the media has and how Fox News is a sham. Rupert Murdoch uses his "news" station to propagate his right-wing, Republican views to America, and ultimately the world. Here's a quote from Roger Ebert from the Outfoxed site:

"Fox is not objective. Fox is a Republican propaganda machine."

-Roger Ebert

There you go, watch it. I seriously recommend this to everyone.

Check out this clip of Bill O'Reilly, one of Fox's main "journalists."

San Francisco... Part III

Watch the video. Now what kind of objective journalist calls the left "nutty," makes fun of a Congresswoman, and misinterprets this San Francisco Proposition. I have no idea what this Proposition is, but based on this one video alone, I think that they are proposing that military recruiting should not be done in public schools. Bill O'Reilly calls this an "anti-military proposition," leaving out the part where they are recruiting young kids in public schools. Anything that goes against the military is seen as a going against the Bush government, and that just can't happen (at least on the Fox Network). And what's this shit about "flying monkeys," and basically calling Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi a witch? That's "fair and balanced" journalism at its best.

I think you'll enjoy this stuff Josh, so remember not to work for Fox when you grow up.

ebay strikes again

I found a super deal on a bike jacket on eBay (yes, it is the "B" that is capitalized). Looking at my recent bank account balance, I probably shouldn't be buying anything, but this was just too sweet of a deal. The helmet was needed for the bike course. Now I just have to find a sweet deal on a bike!

*Note: I am not wearing pants in that picture.

want you back for good

I got my car back today. I'm charging the battery again because it is mad fucked. I hope it never breaks down again.

In other news, the cashier girl/woman/I guess she's a young woman at Millwoods Honda has mad cleavage. It was seriously like gravity, no, more like a black hole, pulling my eyes down. Hey, I tried not to look, but do you really think she dresses like that not to be looked at? I dunno, maybe it just eases people after they pay for their rediculously priced repairs. Cleavage, the the natural relaxant.

ets

Why does the ETS suck so much? Not public transit in general, but specifically the ETS.

Today I took the bus because my car had a little hiccup last night. It's the first time since last year that I've taken the bus. I'll call it my seasonal immune system booster. You might ask why I think the system sucks. Here we go:

• long wait times
• bus drivers are asshole-ish
• it costs $2 a ride, that's expensive for a shitty service
  
• other bus riders are inconsiderate/loud/anti-social/generally unpleasant people
• junior high/high school students who ride the bus think they are gangsters
• junior high/high school students who wait in the bus station think they are gangsters
• it is hard for me to hold back my urges to roundhouse these junior high/high school students

That's all I can think of now. I think Edmonton is just too much of a car-loving city to make any improvements in the public transit system. Whatever, I'm getting my car back soon anyways.

butch, say it like it rhymes with clutch

As I watch the Spice Girls movie on Citytv right now, I have come to the conclusion that Sporty Spice stands out the most out of all of them. Posh is good looking, but she doesn't do much. Ginger talks a lot, but she is loud. Scary is the rapper, but she's the token black person in the band. Baby is cute, but she looks like every other blond (or is it blonde?). Sporty is always the one that does the mad singing over the other four. For that Sporty, I tip my hat to you.

oh, baby

Today after our volleyball game (quarter finals, we won), I was chilling with Jenkins' little baby. Well, he's actually pretty big, but he's only about two months old. Just playing around, he was super cool. It was fun watching him look around with his huge eyes and letting him grasp on to my finger. He also let some farts rip on my lap. I don't think I've had anyone fart on my lap before.

That got me thinking, babies aren't that bad! I know it's more than just playing around, but just holding the little guy was a treat. I'm in no way saying I'm ready to be a father right now either, because I clearly am still a kid. It's just that most younger people will be all like tough and be all "fuck, I hate babies." People have told me that I'm pretty good with kids and that I'd be a good teacher/father. There you go, there may be some truth in that. I've gotta have a steady stream of babies to play with, because they get old you know. Until next time, keep your baby-makers intact.


*Note: I want tall children, so only tall bitches need apply.

the French part in Poster of a Girl = hotness

Best Buy = -hotness

I went into Best Buy tonight to spend the remainder of my gift card from when I got my phone. I picked up the new(ish) Metric cd and decided to check out some DVDs to add to my collection. The 2 for $30 section had some sweet choices so I pondered for a bit. After serious consideration, I picked There's Something About Mary and Independence Day. Both of them were limited or special editions, wicked. I give the cashier my $2 Best Buy bucks and she says: "you know it's just $2 right? some people think it's $25." Of course I know it's only $2. She rings it in and shit is expensive. Damn, I thought it was 2 for $30? I guess they didn't update the computer. I said fuck it and I'll just get the cd, besides, I am poor and can't afford random DVDs (yes, my poorness is greater than my love of Will Smith movies). The total comes out to $10-eighty-something and my card has $10.05. Fuck, I'm at the debit or credit cashier. Purchase $0.78 OK? I better not be charged for some "you are a dumbass for using Interac for seventy-eight cents" charge because I had the cash, but I wasn't going to wait for another cashier. Best Buy - We'll frustrate the fuck out of you!

who was lindsay thurber?

Got back from Red Deer last night. The high school we went to (Lindsay Thurber Comprehensive) is (and has been) going through some renovations. They have a super huge science lab and a new gymnasium that rivals the size of some post secondary institution gyms. Where'd they get the money?

fido referral

Whoever wants to start a new cell phone plan at Fido, let me know. I'll refer you and then we both get $20 credit. It's a sweet deal, so join Fido (and let me refer you).
