Murdoch to buy IGN

Fox is looking to buy IGN. I guess that means that IGN will continue to suck in perpetuity.

If I had a Yugo…

Most bumper stickers suck, but I thought these were kinda funny.

Peace Bumper Sticker
Foreigner Bumper Sticker
USA Owns Bumper Sticker
Jingoist Bumper Sticker
Retards Bumper Sticker

With the exception of the last two, I think you could get away with these in some of the red states.

Robocop attacks Koizumi

Attack Robot

A security robot attacked the Prime Minister of Japan. Koizumi wishes he purchased some Old Glory Insurance.

BTW – If the robot vomited on the Japanese PM, it would have passed the Turing Test.

Boxen should post this

Roe v. Wade is in constant peril, people. Should you doubt it, check out this story which illustrates how American women who are insured by Medicaid are not reimbursed for abortions, even when the fetus suffers from profound genetic abnormalities.

Nice culture of “life” we’re cultivating here. If you’re poor, you’d better find a way to get excited about your baby without a brain.

Boxen will post this

Before he can, let me post it.

Really, though, were we ever under the impression this guy was smart? This is further evidence that his support for stem cell research does not come from any scientific reasoning, but rather concern about Asian governments cornering the embryonic market.

Thank you Frist for showing that doctors truly are human repairmen, rather than intellectuals interested in the pursuit of science. And by the way, conceptualizing discussion about intelligent design as necessary to understand important debates is so circular as to resemble a fucking mobius strip.

This Spartan Life

This Spartan Life

This Spartan Life is a machinima talk-show that takes place inside a multiplayer Halo 2 game, using Xbox Live like Red Versus Blue, but better. The music is provided by an in-game DJ who spins 8bit Collective tunes made with a Game Boy. They have the Solid Gold Elite Dancers and the interviews are actually pretty thoughtful and stimulating, especially the segment with Bob Stein. Also clever is that they leave the game open so random players on Xbox Live jump into the game not knowing that it’s an interview, and they start killing the guests and host.

The Invisible Pink Unicorn rival gets additional documentation, fresco

FSM God

There is now a Wikipedia entry for the Flying Spaghetti Monster. One of the benefits of conversion is the promise of a stripper factory and a beer volcano in Heaven.

Jurrasic Park 4: Every Last Penny

Jurrasic Park 4

How much more can they squeeze from this franchise? The first one was very good. The second, average. The third, teh suck. I only reluctantly saw it, knowing full well that it would be terrible. The wife is a sucker for dinosaur movies, and I think it was a hot day.

Speaking of hot, Keira Knightley is in JP4 and she is fine (for a skinny bitch). Still that won’t save it. What can they do? In order to keep it sciencey, they won’t do something cool like zombie triceratops. I imagine we should expect the same drivel. “We discovered the super-secret Site D and this one has a dino that’s bigger than the one who took on the T-Rex in JP3. It has 5 legs , some wings, a flipper, and two Y chromosomes. Everything we knew about dinosaurs is totally wrong… again.”
