Stupidity Personified

It has come to my attention that some people are really, really stupid. Not convinced? Just watch this video. It is a man lying on train tracks while he films a train driving over him. Granted, it makes for an amusing, and slightly tense, minute of viewing, but still... a little damn common sense please?!

Big Brother is Watching!

You probably already know that Egypt's internet was shut down. Basically the government has blocked all major service providers. The Internet service was shutdown on Thursday at 22:34 GMT, but the Noor ISP which has access to about 8 percent of the market is currently available. Well, now an American legislator is trying to ensure that the American government is able to do the same ting. Wired Magazine was informed by the bill’s sponsor on Friday that senator Susan Collins plans to reintroduce the “internet kill switch” bill to a Senate committee quite soon. According to Collins: "My legislation would provide a mechanism for the government to work with the private sector in the event of a true cyber emergency…. It would give our nation the best tools available to swiftly respond to a significant threat." I understand that cyber security is important, but this is venturing into Orwellian territory. Giving the government free reign to shut down our countries primary form of communication is simply unethical, and way to Big-Brother for my liking.

Real life sack-people!

This is a video that some people made, and filmed all in one take, complete with game-appropriate singing and settings. Basically, if you have never played "Little Big Planet", this will not be very funny to you, but if you have, it's pretty awesome :)

Most useful invention of the year.

You know when you are typing a response on yahoo answers, or leaving comments on a youtube video, and you want to put a smiley face at the end, but it just seems like way too much effort? Well now there is a keypad that attaches via usb, allowing you to leave a variety of emoticons by just hitting one button! Aside from sparing us the agony of hitting more than one button for our emoticon needs, the bubbly keys will supposedly also sport customizable glow options! lol

The United States of Shame

According to National Health rankings, every state ranks dead last in at least one unfortunate category. Click on the link to find out what your state is good at! :) http://pleated-jeans.com/2011/01/24/the-united-states-of-shame-chart/. If you are lucky, you might just get air pollution or porn usage, but holy crap don't you feel bad for those poor souls living in Washington state? I mean sure, sheep are cute, but you might have communication issues, and no self-respecting marriage counselor is going to help you!

Day 24 – A picture of someone you would marry

Starbuck from BSG

My favorite "Doctor " from "Doctor Who"

Vin Diesel as "Riddick"

Sorry about the delay, I missed a couple of days of blogging because the s/o was in surgery, so I have been super stressed. Anyhow, I will get caught up today. Since I will not be posting any pictures of my fiance on here, I decided to post a few of my favorite sci-fi characters instead, I don't know if I would necessarily want to marry them (Okay, maybe Xena), but they sure are nice to look at. So, enjoy the sexiness:

Xena and Gabrielle. Enough said. :)

"Lazy Teenage Superheroes: The Movie"

This was apparently created on a budget of $300, which is very surprising, considering the fact that the special effects aren't all that awful. Besides that, it is pretty freaking hilarious. Anything that incorporates superheroes, ninjas, a giant insect-robot, and a nerf-gun bong is okay in my book. Enjoy!
