Joss Whedon owes me a punch in the face

I've been carrying some literary baggage for sometime. I used to think that singular ownership of a noun required a latent apostrophe on the 's'. It is in fact the other way around, you do it on group ownership.

You'd think being a fan of Bob the Angry Flower I would have known this in the first place.

There's nothing good about a bully without a clue. That is now, officially, me.

In penitence: I used to be a big fan of John Farnham and INXS. What can I say, it was a coastal town which only had the top 40 on the radio. I was also 8 years old.

You may now beat me at your leisure.

I am gay for Joss Whedon

I am also gay for Nathan Fillion. And Trent. And Maynard. And Brian Blessed. And Ian McKellar. And Cynthia.

Anyway, Joss' latest project is Doctor Horrible's Sing Along Blog.

Hey Joss, it's "Horribles'", See how the latent apostrophe indicates singular ownership? That's a rule. I'm afraid you now have to hand me your literature credentials.

Monday Netbowels

It's really hard for me to hate on Wesley Willis. On one hand, Napster introduced me to his Warhellride music and I quickly turned and ran. On the other, he has made more of his hand in life than others could hope too. All with a constant stream of gross epithets displaying no genius beyond his absolute honesty with the creative process.

RIP Wesley Willis, sucking a constipated goats dick fucking jerk!

Never let it be said that I don't enjoy satire.

And never let it be said that belief isn't blind to satire. (for the slow ones, that was a double negative)

Seriously, the amount of net friends I have who pumped their fists to the following scares me.

MOURN

You all know about Angelfire right? Back in the days of Dial Up, any fool with a keyboard could splatter their minds onto the internet for free thanks to great little go getters like Angelfire. And by go getter I mean, it goes for gimps and you get ads and vomit.

There's a chap I want you to meet. His name is Cryptie. He's a forklift driving Goth Cross Dresser.

That's so manly yet so feminine yet so alternative all at once I think I splinched my sexual dimorphism. I've known some Goth Cross Dressers, but never one that drives a forklift.

Or one that does the Goth Cross Dressing at work, on the forklift.


Cryptie's got it all. Dark poetry, romanticism about the netherworld and buckets of MOURN. Yet somehow, Cryptie so truely believes the words he writes, he is truely the Alpha, the source. not some cheap knockoff like some of these chicks.

So raise a glass of your loved ones blood to Cryptie, the most unique forklift driver in the universe!

Kick/Ban

Just the other day, Large video game company, EA banned me from posting to their servers for 7 days. This feat was only attained by building a "Cock" like creature in the "Sim's on crack" game Spore, that will come out in a few months.

Spore, for those not in the know, is a "God" game. In that you are "god" or the creator of all life, but it still is only a game. It is not ment to replace "God" or say that there isn't one.

In Spore you start out as a single celled creature, that must survive life till you can "evolve" at the hand of "god" (you). Then you go through several phases where you will profit. One of the phases is being a animal, and the Creature Creator lets to "experiment" with building them from D N A!!!!1!

So, the other day I downloaded the "game" from the interwebs, and gave it a go. It was pretty good, you can make basically anything.

Yep, you read me right, any-fucking-thing. You are only limited to your imagination, and if you havn't got one, you can download other peoples from the interwebs as EA isn't spending money on building characters for their games anymore You build them (or download other peoples ones.)

Well, one of the first animals I made was called Kocknballs, which was basically a beast that looked like a penis with two balls attached. It wasn't no "one eyed snake" but rather a "one mouth monster" that would move about boucing on its balls.

Well, I got a 7 day ban for that one.

My new question is, will I get banned for my latest creature?



I call it beast "Goatse". Click on the image for a larger version, including "Goatse Spawn".

Now, if I don't get banned for this beast, because I am hinting at Mr Interweb Super-Highway himself, then I can see this grim future for people playing Spore in less than 6 months time...

Every planet in the Spore universe will be full of creature that should belong to a porn game! Little Timmy will be playing with his Pikachu like being, only to have a giant bearded clam eat it up, before moving onto a Spitting Snake with one eye for its next meal.

Im going to pre-order the game now!

*INTERNET-CYBERSPACE UPDATE!*

Looks like the fine people at Something Awful have been fucking around with Spore too. Check out these. Also check out their version of Goatse too.
