Burnin Up!

You all know that if we had internet and webcams when we were 10, we'd be doing the exact same thing.
Kid is "Burnin' Up"

I remember a few years ago when my spam folder was filled with disgusting headlines. "Live Horse Fuckers" "Girl Blows Donkey" and so on.

In the past few years my spam folder has shifted gears. Yes, it still has a sexual tone to it, but now it is riddled with ads for "Extendz" and "Viagra".

I miss the days when the internet thought I was a virile sexual deviant, not a man with a small limp penis.

Opposites Attract

Holy Shit

Out of body experience

Have you ever done something you knew was stupid, but you just couldn't stop yourself from doing it?
Ok.
Now was it so stupid you actually had a small out-of-body experience? You brain, soul or whatever actually detached itself from your physical self and watched the carnage unfold.
This happened to me a few years ago. A girl I was seeing came to me and said "Adam, is it true that guys look at a girls mom to figure out what the girl will look like when she's older?"
At this point my brain said, "Shit." because it had noticed that my lips were already moving. Now my brain was sitting outside my body watching this scene like a Black guy at a scary movie. But instead of yelling at the character to stay out of the barn, it was telling me "Do not call her mom fat".
What my brain witnessed was a doomed fool say, "Well I haven't given up hope that you're adopted yet".
What happened next made Saw I-V look like a Smurfs marathon.

Alien Workshop Mind Field



Alien Workshop has been a fantastic skateboard company for a very long time, so when I heard about there new video Mind Field, obviously I got excited, also the fact that there was a few guys who rented a little hall to do the premiere was awesome. Alien Workshops other video, Photosynthesis was amazing, one of my favorites.
Last night Kent and I went to the premiere, and to say the least we were not disappointed, it was very good! The whole layout of the video, the editing...everything except the music, which was kinda wierd, maybe I am just saying that because its not the style of music I listen to at all, I dont know, but I dont watch skateboard videos for the music, I watch them obviously for the Skateboarding. The actual skateboarding in this video was awesome! The parts in my mind were just a little to shirt. Like Mr. Rob Dyrdek, I very much enjoy watching him skateboard, everything about his skateboarding I like, I just would have liked to see his part be like 2-3 time longer, but it wasnt, and i still liked it.

Go buy this video, watch and enjoy!

Joshua Hoffine

I noticed a few days ago that a friend of mine had posted a little piece about this artist. I never felt like reading it, simply because I am not a fan of reading, but I decided to this morning. This man is an awesome artist, the imagery he is using to capture childhood fears...is even creepy to me now. But he really does capture everything that we all were afraid of when we were younger!

Here is a little sample of what he does!





There are many more than just these two, to see the rest go to his web site www.joshuahoffine.com

Enjoy!

Dog Fights


Everyone knows that Dog Fighting is primitive and anyone who watches or condones it is pure evil. It is cruel and unusual, people like Mike Vick should be fed to dogs for their crimes.


But you have to admit that it'd be a different story if they slapped a pair of shorts and some boxing gloves on the dog. That'd be rather entertaining wouldn't it?


No! It's not. The dog just gets pissed off, tries to chase its tail, trips over the gloves then gnaws on the gloves. It's not even that funny to watch.


Point being, no form of dog fighting is ever acceptable.

Crispin Hellion Glover

I'm a big fan of everything Crispin Glover has ever done. From Back to the Future to the Tom Green Show, I love it all. I've been interested in his independent films for a while now and I for one wish there was some way for more people to experience them. Since watching previews and trailers for his films I've also started to just really love the way he talks, there's something about his voice that just makes me want to listen.

Here's a video with some quick peeks at It Is Fine, Everything Is Fine.


Check out longer clips here at Crispin's website.
The artwork for the movie.

Monday Moron(s)



I dont even know what say about this one!

Lets get ready to rumble.

You may not know this, but I used to be in a greaser gang. We were the Hungry Scorpians and we were the baddest mo'fos this side of the 'sippi. Or that's what we said. It made more sense back then than it does now.
Either way we got into an honest to goodness rumble with a rival gang, The Busters.
The energy in the air was electric. We had our plain white t's, our jeans with the cuffs, black Chuck Taylor shoes, and our typical greaser gang weapons.
I was sporting a tube sock filled with change.
Soon the fight was on. And midway through my first swing I saw my money sprayiing out of the hole in the big toe area of the sock. While absorbing hits with a fence board and watching my change spill down the street I realized I probably could have purchased a real weapon with the money I had dumped into a stinky sock. I mean, how much could a lead pipe cost? Shit, this guy was using a fence board to inflict his damage.

Classic Video Parts: Trilogy - Gino Ianucci

This time I gotta go with one of the best skateboarders ever from one of the best videos ever. It was hard to choose a part from Trilogy, and to be honest I'll probably do a few more from that video. Enjoy!

Lux Interior. 1946-2009

Lux Interior, the man who invented Psychobilly, died yesterday from a heart condition. Creator and frontman of The Cramps, Lux was often described as a twisted version of Elvis. Those who like The Cramps get it, those who don't, think it's garbage. I think they were genius pioneers in fusing genres and their contribution to punk/indie music was tremendous. See for yourself.

The Cramps - Save It


The Cramps - Surfin' Dead

Misanthropy Pure



One of the best songs...ever.

Monday, February 2, 2009

From Punk to Hardcore to Pop. I don't call that evolution.

Nobody will ever know what happened to AFI and why they feel like making pop music is cooler than hardcore. One thing is for sure, a lot of people's lives will never be the same because of this band.

Gangsta! Gangsta!







I don't know when this went down, but the egomaniacle media whore Kanye West slipped on a subtle pair of angel wings for a performance somewhere and a handful of black actors payed to be in the front row seemed to give a damn.


I don't listen to Kanye West or rap, so I am the last person to take rap advice from but I will say this. In a genre that, since breaking into mainstream culture, has always been haunted by a violent stereotype. Tupac, Biggie, and countless other rappers with goofy names have shot and been shot and died or killed as the case may be. They've glorified drugs and violence. 50cent has been shot and that makes him cool. T.I. was found with a stockpile of illegal firearms and so on. But all of these people are better influences than Kanye West.


Kanye took something sacred and sullied it. Angels wings! Angels wings, Kanye!


Those are for freakishly beautiful women to parade around in their underwear to promote unrealistic and unhealthy body images for all those fat uggos, plain janes and shy broads.






Two more things:
1. Kanye, how do you sleep at night you heartless bastard.
2. Start looking more like her ya lazy slags!
