GoogleTV and Proof That YouTube Users Aren’t That Smart
Some guy made a “fake” web tv show episode called Infinite Solutions. Within the program, he proceeded, through the use of screencasts, to show the viewer how to get an exclusive beta invite to a new Google service, “GoogleTV”, via an easter egg in GMail’s interface. Clearly, this is a hoax. Google can’t squat without every blogger in the world waiting around staring at them, holding toilet paper, so thinking they got an on-demand TV service out the door quietly is a complete joke. That being said, TONS of retard youtubers have been following the steps that included the perfectly evil final step of logging out and back into GMail “until it works”. It only gets better when you read some of the comments on the video.
Heidenreich12 – this is simply a waste of time…i tried it 70 times with no luck

Fergie is Batman
I hope I can finish writing this post before the lights in my apartment mysteriously turn off and I turn around to find a dark, scary figure standing in my door way just before I’m thrown out of window in an effort to keep their secret identity intact…
Time to man-up! I’ll just put it out there: I think Fergie is secretly The Batman.
You don’t believe me? Take a look at that utility belt that she was rocking while jogging the other day and tell me thats not Batman’s utility belt! Seriously. I bet you anything that broad is rocking two Batarangs and a can of Shark Repellent Bat Spray.
Ok, I just need to click “Save”. There! Hopefully I will survive to see tomorrow and not see the scary as hell face of Fergie in the middle of the night.
Seriously, she’s kinda ugly.
Whats better than watching Sienna Miller look like she is getting plowed in a movie? Actually seeing Sienna Miller getting plowed in a movie. No, I’m not offering to sell you my tape of me and that Sienna Miller cardboard cutout getting freaky I made in my room last weekend, word has leaked that the sex scenes in her new movie Factory Girl look real because they are real.
That damn Hayden Christensen. That will teach me to turn down movie parts where I costar with Sienna Miller and instead choose to work on my Broadway career. (via WWTDD.com
How To: Rob a Bank
The first thing you have to think of is who are you going to get to help you in your bank robbing adventure. Lets face it, you aren’t nearly awesome enough to do this all on your own, you need help to get your act together. Of course you need to hire a crazy guy that wouldn’t mind getting to second base with his Grandmother if it meant he was going to get his share of the money (If for some reason you actually need someone to make out with their Grandmother, I hear Arkansas is the place!)…also, I’m not sure why, but I feel like this dude should have either a British or Irish accent. Also, you can’t forget to hire a calm quiet guy to be your right hand man, but more importantly you need to hire a huge dumb ass. This guy is easily the key to your team, and the reasons are two fold: 1. He’s huge. You need this guy to kick ass when situations arise like guards that watch too many Steven Segal movies or if during a late night meeting your two other guys start fighting about something stupid. 2. You need this dumb ass to take his share of the lot and go blow it on something hella retarded like The World’s Largest Pair of Sandals so the cops catch him and kill him in a blaze of gunfire and not you. If some of you were wondering “Hey don’t you also need a smart guy?” Yes you do, I was hoping you were smart enough to know that was you, but if you didn’t pick up on that, then…yes…get a nerd dumbass.
Of course you will need a ride. I suggest a large white van. That way you can paint some company name on the side so you don’t get anyone suspicious when you roll up to the bank. I like to be clever in the fake company name I choose for the van, examples would be “Heist and Sons Plumbers”, “Gone in a Flash Photography”, or “The We’re Actually Bank Robbers Electrical Company” this way you can feel clever (its always nice to feel clever) and the old smart Denzel Washington cop can drive by and see it and make the connection when he gets to the station. I know that sounds like a way to get caught, but its no fun if Denzel Washington isn’t chasing you after getting a brief glance of you face as he drives by and struggles to figure out your cryptic fake company.
As far as the actual plan goes, I would advise against getting too clever. Your best bet is to go in there, act cool, have your boys disarm the guards, tell the prettiest and blondest with the biggest boobs to calm down and put the money in the bag (except for that wad of cash that sets off the alarm) and then get the hell out of there. I wouldn’t tease the crowd, or shot the 97 year old retired cop that is now a security guard and was actually the uncle of the Denzel cop. I would also advise against leaving some kind of cute calling card…unless if course you thought of a really bad ass one like if you guys are all surfers and you decide to use ex-presidents for all of your masks.
Lastly, have some fun. Sometimes people get so wrapped up that they forget to smell the roses. Put your shot gun in the face of an old lady, feel free to hit on the blond putting the money in the sack and be sure to stop and kick that “hero” who tried to stop you until your big man kicked in so hard in the junk his you felt it while his down.
Be sure to stop back by and let me know how it goes, or just feel free to send me a new MacBook Pro in the mail with a nice note written on a large, unmarked bill.
John Buccigross, an anchor on ESPN, has built himself a nice little ice rink in his backyard. He explains how he went about it in his recent EPSN.com column.
This would be one of the only cool reasons to not live in the city. You would have the space to make cool stuff like this. I would have gone with making a Field of Dreams-esque baseball diamond, but each to his own.
Just wanted to call attention to a blog post / article from SPIN.com on how Rage Against The Machine (one of my all-time favorite bands) is probably one of the most misappropriated bands of all time. I couldn’t agree more.
But my complaints about the game have more to do with the half time show. The UConn marching band provided entertainment, and I was doing what I always do whenever a marching band is playing: I did my best to pretend I was some place where a marching band wasn’t playing. I consider marching bands to be only about as entertaining as women’s basketball or movies with hobbits in them, which is to say not at all. But at one point, a particular melody caught my ear, and I turned to my girlfriend and said, “Isn’t that ‘Bulls on Parade’?” She nodded in the affirmative.
This is a problem. Why is it a problem? Because “Bulls on Parade” is a song about the savagery of the international military-industrial complex, and because the UConn marching band is a fucking marching band.

Who doesn’t love completely random cartoons that involve a milkshake, fries, a wad of meat and, or course, a guy named Carl? On March 23rd you can see the movie, for now you can watch the trailer for “Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie For Theaters” (via Digg)
Don’t you hate those super-annoying linked page preview from a company called Snap? Well at least Snap isn’t all bad, they give you a little cookie on their site that will disable the previews on all sites that for some reason are run by people that have recently had severe head trauma and think people want little mini-previews of the link they just hovered over. The solution is #2 on their FAQ. The solution is painless and seems to be effective. (via Daring Fireball)
