Mostly Semantics

As a follow-up to our ‘greatest game’ last week, Bobby McObvious asked in the comments who was going to make the official youtube playlist. I have taken that liberty. Here is the link. I took some liberties with it, cutting out stuff I just personally didn’t want to hear (since I actually will listen to this), but uh, 130 classic 90s tracks. Please do enjoy.

It started simply enough. A casual email thread, making plans with friends. I used the word “hooch” in passing and immediately got this back:

Becca: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBp7lqoyrok

Jess: OMG that’s exactly what i was thinking! relatedly, somehow i heard this TWICE this weekend:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5MjVyqByzU. and one of the times was on someone’s ipod.

To which I replied: do not claim to have not sung along, at least for the chorus, for we know it to be impossible. this is a good game. what is next? I’ll offer - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDAXltfj8-Y

Eleven dozen tracks/links later and I think I can safely say this is the most addicting game I’ve ever played. (more…)

While watching SportsCenter this morning before heading into work, I heard maybe the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard on the show. I realize, considering the “expert” “analysts” they have on every day, this is quite a statement, but read on and see why I’m not being hyperbolic. (more…)

I was just having trouble explaining to B-Flux the other night how I think the press treats Obama with kid gloves. I know it’s not exactly an original insight, but it’s nice to see the Onion picked up on it. This is pitch-perfect. H/T to AwesomeFactory for the link.

Hi again.

It ain’t much, but. This is just so good. I was gonna put it here because my google reader wasn’t working - now it seems to be, but whatever, good excuse to post something. Enjoy more teabagging double-entendres than I ever thought I’d see on basic cable, especially outside of South Park.

Maybe more posts later.
