So I went test driving this weekend. Looking to get myself a new car. One of my first BAMF posts back in the day was regarding my quest to purchase a new automobile (which I did, a Honda Civic EX… wheee.) so it seems only fitting that I poll you suckers for a little advice on my next major purchase. Right now I’m leaning towards the following:

• Nissan 350 Z – I actually test drove this bad boy on Sunday, after my Civic blew up. Lemme tell you son… daddy like. I tried out the 287 and 300hp models, and I was at half mast by the time we reached 90MPH, which took all of five seconds. I loved this car. Loved. It’s slick as Hell, not uncomfortable for my 6’3″ frame, and handles like a well-trained Taiwanese hooker. The only drawback is that it only has two seats… but I hate people and have little chance of talking my current girl into a threesome, so those additional seats would only drag down my gas mileage I suppose.
• Infiniti G35 – Haven’t had a chance to drive this thing yet, but I will in the next couple of days. I’m hoping that this thing blows me away, as it will completely solve the two seat dilemma of the 350Z. Plus it’s downright sexy, as long as it’s the two-door model. Those additional doors are like adding a few lbs. to Jennifer Lopez’s ass… you’re already at maximum “junk in the trunk” capacity. Any more and the bitch will look ridiculous.

Those are basically the top two at this point. I’m really just looking for suggestions and comments, so if you’ve got any, have at it. I’m not a truck or SUV type of guy, so if you planned on telling me to invest in an automobile that could possibly contain a gun rack: don’t bother.

Mitch Hedberg’s Death Due To Drug Overdose

Comedian MITCH HEDBERG died of “multiple drug toxicity,” according to Spin magazine and reports filed by the New Jersey medical examiner’s office.

The 37-year-old, who starred in ALMOST FAMOUS and Fox’s hit series THAT ’70S SHOW, was found dead in a New Jersey hotel room during a stand-up tour in March (05).

He had cocaine and heroin in his system, but was originally thought to have died of heart failure.

I’m in shock. No, seriously.

Oh, not about the drugs, that was a given. I just had no fucking idea that this comedic genius was in Almost Famous.

Sand.

Fucking addicting. Or, you could also try its slightly more CPU-intensive zombie-containing brother.

BongWeasel: it’s basically a sandbox type of thing where you fuck around with physics and particle properties. you have sand, water, salt, and oil that have their own properties. water can be mixed with salt to make salt water. water makes plants grow. salt shrinks the slug ( i usually just turn that fucker off though ). oil burns quickly, while wax burns slowly.

I don’t know why it’s so addicting, but it is. And now 3/4 of my day is gone. Lovely.

The X-3 train keeps on rolling, even if they do have an idiot wearing that sweet conductor hat. They’ve apparently signed on a newcomer, Mei Melancon, to play the part of Psylocke. And contrary to the majority of the X-timeline, she will be a villain.

The evil mutant assassin Psylocke has joined the lineup of “X-Men 3,” the latest installment of the Marvel superhero franchise.

Word began leaking last week from the Vancouver set that “X-Men 3” would introduce Psylocke, who has had several incarnations in the Marvel comic book series and is best known for her fighting and telepathic skills as well as an ability to transport herself and others through shadows. In the film, she will fight against the X-Men as a member of Magneto’s (Ian McKellen) Brotherhood of Mutants.

Mei is pretty hot, I’m pleased that they went with the Asian assassin incarnation of Psylocke, rather than the lil’ British chippy Betsy Braddock version. Far more bloodshed, and far less clothing material. Win/win.

Oh, and Halle Berry is a fucking idiot.

Quickies!

• Boner #1: New screens of FFXII – I’m really really hopeful that this makes up for all the meh-ness of the last batch of Final Fantasy games. If not… well, par for the course, and I’ll just continue to play FFIV on my DS.
• Boner #2: Children of Mana DS – Daddy needs a DS optimized RPG. And he needs it now.
• Boner #3: Jordan 2006 Calendar – Just for those of you who don’t give a rat’s ass about games, here are some British boobies to entertain you. Thankfully, no stereotypical British teeth!

It’s been busy as fuck around here. Having a real job is painful to the creativity, humor, and general will to go on living capacities. So lets liven things up with some videos that make me not want to strangle every single one of you with rusty chicken wire. (It’s nothing personal baby, it’s just business…)

  I think this will seal at least a few Revolution sales.

  Hello me, I sent this to you, just so that all of the videos could synch together inside that little box with the asian mailman. I do things the way I wants, baby.

  P.S. let’s have sex later.

….are you not watching the Keeley video? What are you, gay? Get the fuck out of here!

Dude. The “Time to make the donuts” guy died.

He was in over 1,300 TV commercials. That was one busy little man.

Tragically, we can’t have one.

Using a Pac Man cocktail table arcade game (the popular maze game by Midway, circa 1980) as a base, the standard glass was replaced with a custom-shaped, 1/2″ thick, polished edge table top glass. The design of the table top allows players to sit at either end of the arcade game while adding additional surface area on the outer edges. Four adults can comfortably sit at the table.

The arcade game is enhanced with Clay Cowgill’s MultiPac, allowing up to 24 different game variations to be played while enjoying dinner.

Fucking. Awesome.

Why am I still abstaining from watching this show?
