Snood: Tetris for Retards

If you’re my age or a little older you know that Snood is a knockoff of the classic Bubble Bobble derivative, Bust-a-Move. However, when the great Snood boom of 1996 hit the Internet a with a viral force researchers compare to that of Elf Bowling and Hampster Dance combined. (While I’m on the subject, why would HampsterDance.com have any other content but the original? Talk about not knowing your audience…) So, back to the matter at hand. It is absolutely mind boggling that people are still playing Snood. You can play thousands of shitty games online for free and yet it seems people (in my analysis it’s always girls) are still playing Snood.

It has come to my attention that some fortunate people out there may be completely in the dark about Snood. Such as @Mahaviraband who asked “what is ‘snood’???”. My dear friend this is Snood:

The basic idea is that you have to get 3 of the same faces to touch and then it knocks them and anything below them off. You have to clear the board in a certain number of moves as the brick wall lowers throughout the game. It’s a ridiculously simple puzzle game which take about 4-5 seconds to completely master and get over.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, I’m Sorry, But You Are No Longer The Best Looking Couple In The World

I thought Kim Kardashian was just a gorgeous, mindless, single slut- but I was totally wrong: she is not single. Apparently, she has been dating Reggie Bush, who was also, apparently, carved from ivory ebony. For the past few years I thought Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were the best looking couple possible. WRONG. Take a look at these two people who are of solely physical worth:

Live Nation Needs Its Ass Kicked and Irving Azoff Can Suck My Dick

I just made my first transaction on Live Nation, which is trying to merge with ticket sales overlord TicketMaster (CEO: Money grubbing Guns N’ Roses, Van Halen, Steely Dan and NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK manager Irving Azoff). Remember like a year or so ago when you would go to buy a ticket it would sometimes bring you to the old school order and if it was a pre-sale you would go to LiveNation? Fucking stupid, now they’ll be the same company. Anyway, I just bought a pair of tickets to see Protest the Hero (rawk!) in May. I have to say the Live Nation site was pretty intuitive. When I searched for the tickets I was able to easily find them and, much to my surprise, they were only sixteen bucks! That fuckin’ rules – I would have shelled out 25 if I was asked to do so. What follows is a harrowing tale of trivial amounts of money, deciet and a broken (and just fucking broke) young man.

Now You Can Tag All Your Enemies In One Facebook Picture

If you are a Facebook user then you have undoubtedly seen these cartoon group tagging pictures;  you may have even been tagged in one. It’s a way to almost, kind of, psuedo-bond with people you are somewhat acquainted with. You get to sort of compliment people by reducing them to a positive stereotype. Fun! Look how creative and clever you look! After tagging up the photo, you get to see the comments roll in and soon your in-box is cluttered with notifications.

But maybe you’re like me. You actually communicate with your friends and talk to them in person, or on the electric telephone, or at least on instant messenger. I’ve found that Facebook suddenly wants me to start “liking” everything. Well, guess what, I don’t like everything. I also don’t like everyone.

So, I’ve developed this picture. Feel free to save it, post it, tag it and insult people passive-aggressively.

The Pope or “The Dumbest Motherfucker Alive”

Beyond basic knowledge about your operating system, web browser and location (yea… where you live within a pretty reasonable distance), I don’t know too much about you guys – our readers. What I can surmise though, is there are about 100 people reading every day. I think it’s safe to assume some of you are the same people, which means posts like this, this and this really don’t bother you. If you do take offense to posts like that, read no further. – DJ

So, yesterday I slammed the Wall Street Journal’s dumb website for not poviding me with any good news. Then I actually went there. This is what I got. Now, I’ve made my views on organized religion pretty public – really I hate all religion, but those which are “organized” give me a very big, fat, bloated target to take aim at. Now, Pope Benedict has put his foot so far into his Nazi mouth, he’s likely to shit shoe leather later today.

Good golly, I sure wish I could take credit for this one.

Didn’t You All Used to be Whores In College?

Roy and I get a few magazines delivered to our house that neither of us has a subscription for: Us Weekly, OK! Weekly, Vibe, Entrepreneur and the occasional J&R Cigar catalog. We’ve been living in our current place for almost two months and I had thought I’d seen it all. I was so fucking wrong. Last week I opened the mailbox to discover the following visual travesty:

I don’t know if it’s more shocking that we will now receive this magazine for god knows how
long or that someone who once lived in our relatively shitty apartment had a job AND kids.

What Not To Listen To: Papa Roach

My last installment of “What Not To Listen To: Static X” was featured on the old site and was one of the few things that didn’t make it over to the new one when we switched last August. So, I’ll be posting that as soon as I find the original document.

What Not To Listen To is my opportunity to pick a horrible, obviously hated band and just tear them to shreds for both musical and non-musical reasons. Wayne Static and Static X had it coming from day one and so has Papa Roach. I understand the easiness of tearing down each of these bands, but I’m gonna do it anyway.
