What if you were a shark that was really really lazy? Let’s say a fish was in front of you. Your frightening jaws are open but the fish just won’t swim into them. You have to swim five or six more inches now just to get that fish. Sucks to be a shark, right? Wrong! If you were a goblin shark, you would simply unleash your jaws like you fired them from a cannon. Then reel that fish back in and swallow. Simple. Why are you still reading? Check out the closest thing to the creature in the movie Alien you will hopefully ever see.

Butterface Machinima
This is pretty awesome! A new Twitter friend, JellyBean Madison (real name?), created a machinima version of my Butterface parody using Second Life. I’m honored that this was worth putting the time in to do. This is really cool. You can find more of JellyBean Madison’s videos at the link below.

Current Music Thoughts – Summer 2009
Imagine for a moment that you are an angel. You are sent down to Earth to watch over people and guide them out of harm’s way. Now, you are assigned to a person and when you get down to Earth, the person spots you and starts screaming, “I CAN SEE YOUR HALO! HALO! HALO! HALO! HALO!” Wouldn’t you ask to be assigned to someone else? Someone less defective. C’mon Beyonce, your song’s got you looking so crazy right now.
Sometimes people come up to me and say, “you should do the Helen Keller.” And I say, “What? Be an inspiration for all and have the girl from Little House on the Prairie play me in a movie?” And they say, “No, silly. Shake your hips.” And then I punch that person in the face out of respect to everyone who’s ever met Helen Keller or seen the movie.
A lot of people don’t know this but Andy Gibb was the first person to coin the phrase, “Disco Stick.” He was known to precede it with “Suck my” when his brothers would flaunt their much greater success at family reunions.
The Ting Tings song, “That’s Not My Name,” has such a fantastic beat that I wish they would make a fifth Bring It On movie ASAP. That or take it off the radio.
I know you want me. You know I want cha. Trust me, repeating this 400 times with a Spanish accent doesn’t get you a lady. It gets you a headache.

Funny Stuff That Ain’t Mine: Tiddy Bear
Special thanks to Sue Funke for this one.
I didn’t know this was a problem but I totally see it now. And I don’t want you to think I have stock in the company but I think this can go beyond seat belts. What about straps on mental patients? Maybe they wouldn’t be so resistant to being tied up if they had a Tiddy Bear on the 3-4 straps that secure them to the gurney. Ooo, or death row cons about to get in the electric chair? I’m sure they would enjoy the trip to hell a little better with some Tiddy Bears on their wrists. Just make sure you soak them in water first.
And remember, that’s T-I-D-D-Y Bear. Don’t go expecting huge knockers on a stuffed bear. Though that probably exists too.

Armageddon And Zombies
I’m currently reading “Pride and Prejudice and Zombies” which is a genius book and one of those ideas I wish I had come up with. So I thought I would see what one of my favorite movies would be like with zombies. I present to you…
Armageddon and Zombies
Out in space, an astronaut is performing repairs on a satellite. In the middle of repairs, the astronaut is hit by a foreign object causing mission control to lose contact with the repair team. A short time after that, in New York City, a body falls from the sky landing on a cab. The cab driver gets out and looks up. More bodies are falling like rain bouncing off buildings and driving through the pavement. As the cab driver stares up, the body which went through his hood begins moving. It gets up and bites his arm. It’s raining zombies.
NASA discovers the cause of this undead precipitation. An asteroid made out of zombies is hurtling through space (which works because zombies don’t need to breathe) on a collision course with Earth. The zombies are holding onto each other with as tight a grip as their undead hands will allow. The zombies that have already arrived were ones that fell off the asteroid. NASA comes up with a solution: They break the zombie asteroid apart.
NASA Leader
We’ve been asking around and every time this man’s name has come up. If there were two guys that no one thought could be pulled apart, this guy pulled them apart.
Harry MacStamper, the head of security at Ibrox Stadium, brings his crew to NASA to be trained for space travel. They go through zero-gravity drills, all kinds of flying maneuvers, and body physicals. After they are cleared for space travel (barely, ha ha), they are put through field tests to simulate what they will encounter. Some of the zombies that remained intact from the New York City landing were flown in and tethered together.
NASA Training Instructor
Ok, these zombies intend to grab you, scratch you, bite you til you bleed out. Now, get in there and start separating.
Once they are ready, they make a list of demands. Their list includes never having to pay taxes again, brand new cars, but mostly, they unanimously request that all non-Scottish Premiere League teams are destroyed. NASA agrees to most of it.
The two shuttles take off and dock at a Russian refueling station. The cosmonaut aboard the space station casually mentions a recent match between Russia and Scotland. The resulting skirmish ended up creating a gas leak when the cosmonaut was hurled into a series of pipes. The leak eventually destroys the Russian space station. The cosmonaut did not suffer in the explosion as he was already dead.
Resuming the mission, the shuttles slingshot out of lunar orbit and end up behind the zombie asteroid. Other zombies float alone behind it. The shuttles employ evasive tactics but Shuttle Independence takes a zombie to the wing losing maneuverability just enough to collide with more. Zombies pound on the windshields until they crack. The passengers on board move to a secure subsection of the shuttle as the zombies breach the cockpit. The Independence spins out of control off the radar.
Freedom Pilot
Houston, Independence is an undead stick. I repeat, Independence is an undead stick.
The Freedom manages to evade most of the zombie stragglers but misses the landing spot by 26 miles. The crew begins checking the ship for damages. The smartest security guy starts complaining about the landing spot and argues with the pilot.
Genius Security Guy
The reason we were shooting for Grid 8 was because it consisted of mostly one-armed zombies but Grid 9, according to Computed Tomography is a throng of steroid-laden, former bodybuilders…which means you landed us on a pile of undead Mr. Universes.
The mission continues and the security guys struggle to pull the stronger zombies off the ball. They take a break to drink some Gatorade and get in an argument with the pilot. The pilot informs them that they should have removed 400 zombies. When Harry tells him that they have only removed 52, Plan B goes into motion…a nuclear bomb.
Harry MacStamper
You could just blow them up? You brought us up here to do it the hard way?
Freedom Pilot
We didn’t want to use one of our nukes.
Harry MacStamper
This is unbelievable. I lost men! Let’s get out of here!
The Freedom takes off to return to Earth. The nuke is detonated, the zombie asteroid destroyed, and the Earth is saved. Fade out.
Postscript:
We fade back in on the visitor’s locker room at Ibrox Stadium. The Russian Soccer Team has just finished the match with Scotland. Some of the team is dressed and some are getting out of the shower. The door opens and a large figure wearing a hood and dressed like a Scotland fan stumbles in as if pushed. Harry peaks his head in.
Harry MacStamper
Good game, guys. I have a friend here who’d like to pick your brains.
Harry pulls off the hood and closes the door quickly. The figure is revealed as one of the super strong zombies. From behind the closed door all that can be heard are the screams of the Russian team. Harry smiles and walks off.

Tor’s News Nuggets: 6/15/09
A 14-year-old boy in Germany was struck in the hand by a pea-sized meteorite. Michael Bay has already purchased the rights to the story and is expected to begin shooting in November on “Handageddon.”
An umpire in Iowa ejected the entire crowd at a high school baseball game. Then, with the guarantee of no one watching, he proceeded to get down on his knees and blow the game.
The Los Angeles Lakers won their 15th title last night on the shoulders of Kobe Bryant. It’s a good thing they relied on his shoulders because other parts of him were probably too busy raping.
A student in upstate New York was charged with unauthorized use of a computer when he created a software program that stopped teachers from being allowed to input grades. I don’t have a joke. That’s just awesome.
Alright, I have a joke:
A student in upstate New York was charged with unauthorized use of a computer when he created a software program that stopped teachers from being allowed to input grades. The computer program was:
- 10 PRINT “SUCK IT, TEACHERS!!!”
- 20 GOTO 10
- 30 RUN

Tor’s News Nuggets: 6/11/09
A new element will be added to the Periodic Table making me glad I got out of high school when I did. Good luck memorizing 112 elements, suckers. The new element’s name is Ununbium. I would have gone with just Bium but you know scientists. Those nerds like their element names like the tongue on the hot alien girl from “Species.”
Real Madrid has spent 131 million dollars to acquire Ronaldo from Manchester United. To put that into terms you can understand, that’s almost 50 cents per US citizen that could care less about this story.
Venezuela has banned Coca Cola products from being allowed in the country citing health concerns. This does nothing to change my belief that Venezuelans are made out of Pop Rocks.
Scientists have found that going to work sick does more harm than good. The research for the project was funded by every employee in the world.
