The verdict: LOL.

August 17th, 2007

Working at home on a Friday is a bag of dicks man, let me tell you about it. I’m in my pajamas (yay!) but I’m not sleeping (boo!) and there’s coffee (yay!) but it’s instant (boo!). Lunch breaks are great though, run through the shower, lay on the couch, watch porn and play PS3 catch up on the local news, and maybe break out big Vic and go for a ride.

“Superbad”
(
A movie review by “Joisey” Mike”dor the Burninator” “Fuckin’” Craig Snyder)

Scott wasn’t foolin,’ this is the funniest movie I’ve seen in years. All of the scenes from the trailer and crap compared to the rest of the movie, including some scene that are the REAL versions of the watered down cut that made the trailers. You will laugh your ass off, and have new respect for anyone who doodles penises. Go see it. If you’re going tonight, I’d totally go see it again.

Viva Las… anyway.

I’m headed back to Vegas in September, the 7th to the … umm… crap. There’s never a calendar when you need one. Until the 15th. I get there on a Friday morning, and granted I’ll be working during the weekdays, the first weekend should be fun. I might do the hotel thing and make it a real vacation for the first weekend, but I’m spending the weekdays at my Dad’s place, working from there for a week. Should be fun times.

Rockin’ on Saturday

I’m really excited for Mike’s birthday show on Saturday; we’re going to see the Bouncing Souls and Lifetime — two bands that most of you Jersey mockers don’t know are from NJ. I feel like I need to say something: you should be fucking ashamed of yourself if you use the word “Emo” and you haven’t heard Lifetime. They invented the shit. I know I’ve stopped having rage fits whenever someone pouts in their myspace picture and says that Justin Timberlake’s ballads make them feel so emo, and yeah, I’ve stopped seeing red at the fact that that became the pop-culture hero of super-cool-underground-but-not-really terms. Anyway, I loved Lifetime when I was in HS, and they broke up when I was a freshman at Towson, and after starting to do reunion shows over the last year or two, they’re finally playing here. 

Code Monkey

This is the best song anyone in the tech field will ever hear. I think it might be my new favorite Jonathan Coulton song, even surpassing “Re: Your Brains,” because being a code monkey, I can identify. That’s something I won’t be able to do with “Re: Your Brains” until one of my coworkers turns into a zombie and tries to attack me. Although, if I get angry enough about people using the word Emo while I’m at work, I could become a rage-infected code monkey, and we learned during “28 Days Later” that rage-infected monkeys create zombies, which after I calm down, could, in turn, attack me. Then I’d be able to identify just fine.
