As subtle as a flying brick.

Idiotic Crap

Grey Day

In case you havn’t seen me lately, I’ve developed a grey patch in my goatee about the size of a large thumb print. The Jennifer loves it and I’m getting used to it. Heh. I’ll take a picture sometime to show it off.


Wither Passport?

Microsoft hasn’t talked much about Passport lately, but Monster.com sent out an email last week saying that they were discontinuing the option to sign in using Passport. And I noticed today that eBay isn’t offering the option to sign in with Passport anymore either. Although the creepy Passport for Kids site is still up and running, and the notice from last March about the Express Purchase service getting killed is still up, but I think the definitive bad sign is that the directory of sites using Passport is gone.

Was there some press release from Microsoft about Passport dying? Did I miss it?


Ads too risque for the clients

<img src="http://hacked.org/~claymore/images/adgraveyard.jpg&quot; width="127" height="220"
A list from the Ad Graveyard of rique print and Web advertisements that were rejected by clients of ad agencies. Some are quite funny, some are shockingly tasteless (“The said it would take three more bullets: The Beatles Reunion”), all are worth a look.


Chinese company claims “Happy Birthday” as trademark

The words .Happy Birthday. can no longer be legally used if they are pinned to any other product, as a private Chinese company has claimed to have registered them as its trademark in 25 countries, including the US, Japan and European Union members this month.
The Fufeng toy plant in East China.s Anhui province said it has more than 70 products with the .Happy Birthday. brand, including industries like toys, dresses, shoes and hats. With increasingly fierce competition in the world toy market, the company realised the importance of branding.


Muppet Fan Halloween Parade 2004


ToughPigs.com has published the first installment of its annual Muppet Fan Halloween Parade. This year’s parade starts off with more than a dozen of fan-made Beaker costumes.


Hey Mom/Dad, check out what I learnt in college!

There were two high school sweethearts who went out together for four years in high school and were both virgins and enjoyed losing their virginity with each other in 10th grade. When they graduated, they wanted to both go to the same college but the girl was accepted to a college on the east coast, and the guy went to the west coast. They agreed to be faithful to each other and spend anytime they could together.
As time went on, the guy would call the girl and she would never be home, and when he wrote, she would take weeks to return her letters. Even when he e-mailed her, she took days to return his messages. Finally, she confessed to him that she wanted to date around. He didn’t take this very well and increased his calls and letters and e-mails trying to win back her love.
Because she became annoyed, and now had a new boyfriend, she wanted to get him off her back. So what she did is this: She took a polaroid picture of her sucking her new boyfriend’s unmentionables and sent it to her old boyfriend with a note reading, “I found a new boyfriend, leave me alone.” Well needless to say, this guy was heartbroken, but even more so, he was pissed. So what he did next was awesome.
He wrote on the back of the photo the following: “Dear Mom and Dad, having a great time at college, please send more money!” and then mailed the picture to her parents.


Here Chicken Chicken Chicken !

So I love my diet, it allows to eat all this food that I love, and still loose weight. It rocks I’m at my desired weight now, after gaining some musscle weight back, 193.
I just ate a chicken, I love chicken. Jenn was all blown away the first time she saw me eat a full chicken one day, since then its still been pretty amusing to her. Funny thing is, when it comes to other fods that aren’t on my diet, like chinese food, I can’t much of them without getting full.
We went to Chan’s house here in Moncton a while back, for Jenns sisters birthday. It’s a buffet, and I’ve been asked to leave certain buffets for abusing the system and eating way more then they had budgeted for a single person. (without gaining weight at the time either). But yeah, I ate 3 plates at chans house, and I was stuffed… I used to be able to eat 10-15 plates without a problem. So that’s good, keeps me from eating that bad stuff. I’m just not hungry for it. The only thing I miss is Sugar. Mmm Sugar.
It’s nice to be loosing weight, who ever said us Nice Guys didn’t win? Sheit. Oh wait, i’m a badass, forgot about that.


Drug-smugglers’ coolest secrets

Microgram Bulletin is the DEA’s publication for tracking the ingenuity of drug smugglers — from hollow, heroin-filled lollipops to heroin formed into machine parts to coke-filled Evian bottles to marijuana-based peanut butter to my personal favorite, this hollowed out biography of Princess Di filled with cocaine.
Dude, I’ve never seen a more thorough glamorization of drug smuggling! It seems the drug lords have an entire army of James Bond Qs laboring in underground labs pumping out Viagra-lookalike Ecstasy and secret-agent hashish chocolate bars.

Re-Post

I meant to re-post this for the Jennifers birthday, but 2 days late isn’t bad for me.
Porn Star or My Little Pony?


It’s good to be handy.

I love the fact that I’m technically inclined, but I’m also very handy with household repairs and I should be a good help in the renovation. So far today I’ve gotten around to putting most of my repair tasks behind me. I put up a railing going into the basement, at just the right height, even though I’m adding a 2nd one just so that shorter people have an easier time 😉
Repair’d the toilet, looks like the Nana that had the place for a year tried to jury rig a few things.. which I’ve since fixed the right way.
Other then that, holy crap I love my house.


My Little Pony WHAT?

WTF is this shit ?


Maury

So for a change, I’m watching daytime tv before I start work, thanks to timeshifting. So yeah, there are these chicks on Maury who have been on 5-6 times to get paternity tests done. This is crazy shit.
If you need more then 1 test, then you have some more serious issues then just trying to figure out which guy got you pregnant.
A couple of them are upset about being labeled white trash.. well shit, people who dont want to be labeled white trash shouldnt go on international tv trash shows to try to figure out which of the dozens of men they were with is their childs father.
Dude, twisted shit.


It’s the Jennifer’s Birthday

Today, is the Jennifers Birthday, it marks the offical start of the 3 month period where i get to tell her shes older then me 🙂
She’s a rocking gal, ever since I hooked back up with her life has gotten better and better. Life is rocking, good job, good woman, wicked house, cool car.
Sadly, the Jennifer has to work tonight, so it’s not that bad that I’m on call tonight.


Victimless Leather

This is kind of cool, leather without cows... or any living animal for that reason. Growing leather jackets for fun and profit?
I find this pretty cool, but thats just me, some people find this gross and wrong, but I dont see whats so wrong with this vs butchering a cow or other animal for their skin. Now, I’m not going to go on a rant about this. I avoid ranting and raving, I’m not looking to push my opinion out there, but I just wanted to say this is cool.


Vagiseal

Star Wars Kid cameo in Tony Hawk game

There’s an Easter Egg in Tony Hawk Underground 2 that causes the Star Wars Kid to appear, twirling and sparring with his imaginary light-saber-staff. Follow the link for video and details
“On the Boston level if you ollie through the glass windows on one of the buildings (it’s one or two to the left of the one where Ben Franklin is hiding) you land in a living room with a flat panel tv on the wall. If you stand in front of the TV Ghyslain gets up and shouts something about watching Star Wars (which you’re now preventing). Hitting O (on the PS2) will result in him showing off his moves.”


Teen to Get Bill for $10M for Wildfire

“The U.S. Forest Service said it plans to bill a teenager about $10 million to pay the costs of fighting a 16,000-acre wildfire.”
Ok, forest fires are bad, but 10M for one family to pay for an accident? shit, that’d bankrupt and destory almost any normal person. That’s just excessive beyond any reasonable means.


Oh, and because I’m evil

Here, enjoy..
Speaking of evil, Martha got time, yay. So to honor the occasion, i thought about getting a tshirt for the Jennifer. Think she’ll like it ?


Hack the Post Office

This guy takes USPS stickers, runs them through his printer and prints ‘USPS does not acknowledge the authority of the Bush administration.’ and then puts them back in the rack at the post office. Check it out.


Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy

The old Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy text-based Infocom adventure game has been spiced up with some new graphics and re-released as a little Flash app by the BBC.
Personally, I love it.


Lucas put malicious Xbox trojan on Star Wars DVD

Not that I have a modded xbox, but I found this rather interesting. The new Star Wars bonus DVD erases elements of your Xbox’s firmware without informing you or giving you a chance to decline. This is apparently deliberate, as part of an “anti-piracy” effort aimed at punishing people who play the Star Wars DVD bonus disk in a modded Xbox.
The ‘StarWars Trilogy DVD’ (video/movie DVD) has an ‘Extra Special Features Disc’. If you try to launch this on your Xbox it will automaticly update your dashboard … NO confirmation will be asked. The bonus disc has extra features including a documentary on the star wars saga, footage from the making of all three films and a preview demo of the new ‘StarWars Battlefront’ Xbox game (that’s why there’s a default.xbe, dashupdate.xbe and update.xbe on the disc).
This information can be important for some people with older bioses (booting xboxdash.xbe), people using exploits or simply those who don’t want their dash upgraded.


Mmmm sandwich

Man… I cant even guess how many carbs this thing has.. but thats one huge sandwich
