Tonight was the ROCK AND ROLL ROADTRIP TO WAL-MART! Getting groceries has never been more exciting. Well, perhaps it has...but still! I got Mongolian Fire Oil and Fruity Pebbles, so all will be forced to BOW AT THE SOUND OF MY NAME! I also got to explain to my friend Nick how vegetarians are fooled into not eating meat by the government. That's because the...

my argument has always been, my eyes face forward, like all carnivores. thus. i eat meat. i'm a creature of nature.
you're either a predator, or you're prey.
that's how it works.

okay, maybe not the best argument, but that's all the energy i'm willing to put into it.

what's Mongolian Fire Oil?
sounds dangerous.
i gotta see if they carry that around here.

i dunno what it is about little kids looking like that, but i do think that wearing saddle shoes at an early age obviously promotes intelligence and taste later in life.....

but what if it turns out that I AM the Force(s) of Darkness?

Rest in peace, Otomo, and may a flight of angels sing thee to thy rest. Yup, it finally happened. Nyarlathotep, the Vinegaroon, got real hungry and real pissed off, and managed to find a way to break into Otomo the Tarantula's side of the terrarium. This ended with Otomo in tiny little pieces all over the sand and Nyarlathotep with a noticeably distended belly. Can't...

my sincere condolences.

i hate to sound like a prick, and i KNOW that if you had been there you would have saved the day, BUT if it HAD to happen, it would have been kinda cool to watch, don't ya think?
maybe that's just me.

i haven't started the new Lansdale book yet. i'm in the middle of 2 novels, and then today i picked up Conspiranoia. i'll prolly finish that one first.
the Joe R. book is one of his Hap/Leonard series. i dunno if you've read any of those yet, but i highly recommend 'em.

check out his website too. i think you'd like it. he has his own fighting system that he teaches down in Texas too.

Er, what's a vinegaroon? Some sort of snake, yes? My condolences.

I feel ENERGETIC! I was bouncing off the walls here so I decided to go to the training-type area and get some ninja out of me, and I gotta tell you I got some serious ninja out. Now I feel really good, which makes me not want to do homework. Homework BLOOOOWS. But I also want to pass school, so I suppose I will have...

Score. I nailed a totally sweet Baltan toy on eBay today. Squeeze his legs and his arms go UP! Apparently he's from some obscure Ultraman show in the mid-90's that featured everyone as PUPPETS! How rad is THAT? I need to find videos of this... Unfortunetly, my obsessive compulsive love for Baltan may be my own undoing. Stupid Japan has decided on making like 5...

thanks man. i be alright, it's prolly nothing.

when i was in Madrid i passed a toy store that had 12 inch action figures of World War II Waffen SS soldiers, Hermann Goering, AND Adolf Hitler.
with staff car.

now the Nazis were evil evil evil. no denying that, but c'mon!! too bad the cheapest private was still $70.

Cthulu Action Ninja Squad....i like the sound of that.
you get it drawn up, you gotta share with us.

just read your post in the If I Were To Kill Myself thread...genius.

Crom, I made the entire world stink. I got this totally rad wok at Ikea today, on sale for $5 no less, and the thing says to prep it I ought to put oil in it and put the sucker over heat for a few minutes. So now the entire apartment reeks of vegetable oil. Way to go, me!
oso:
i tried frying squid one night, and i dunno what i did wrong, but the stench was near puke-inducing.

the one and only time i tried roasting some lamb i had to pull the smoke alarm off the wall.

so yeah, i eat out alot.

RADNESS ENSUES! Haha, mongoloid producer Greg decided to have a crew meeting for the movie I'm working on tonight, but then he decided not to come. See, he's too busy waiting for the wifey to come home so they can spend quality time, i.e. he's totally pussy-whipped. THUS, we decided to can the stupid meeting. Now a bore-night has become a FUN NIGHT! Sold me...

Yes, children of doom, its time again for ADVENTURES WITH IKA, this time featuring at least 23% more swords and 15% less ennui!

See, tonight me and my friend George decided to go train at the traning room thing up at the University of Pittsburghlandia, which we usually had no problem doing on Wednesday nights before. Wrong. New semester, new classes, and now there are...

using your sword on one so ignorant would only dishonor the blade.

i think it best to stick to your Ninja Face Rip of Doom in cases like this.

Gamera kicks ass.

I wrote a poem today at work, because we were having a poetry writing contest. It was swanky. Thus, for your reading enjoyment, I present the OFFICIAL BEST HAIKU EVER. And that's of all time, mind you. The title of this masterwork is "Prostrate thyself before me, indentured servant of chaos":

Blood upon my steel
Black holes beckon unto me
Die, Space Mummy, Die!

i managed to dodge that bullet. i think only one of my friends actually ever met her.

t'wasn't a proper relationship kinda deal. she offered a "just friends with benefits" deal, and i was dumb enough to believe her.

at least i wear my evilness on my sleeve where people can see it. not my fault if they don't believe it until it's too late....muuhaaahaaaaa.....

Ugh, so I finally relented after being badgered for the last two hours to at least go out to lunch with my ex if she's ever in the city. I figure its better to blow a half hour being miserable than listen to her prattle on forever whenever I'm online from now until eternity, and hopefully after this she'll leave me alone. Wishful thinking, I...

Well, I was able to relent on said plans, thoroughly reasserting my status as a BOYISH BOY and I thought I was on the verge of making her go away, when she...well...she just didn't. I don't get it. I called her a bleeding ENERGY VAMPIRE! And in all seriousness, too, there was not a hint of mirth in the statement. Yet still, she persists. I think I may have to follow through with your idea after all, Jen, as none of mine seem to have the least bit of effecacy. Oh well, at least I don't have to hang out with her now.

I'm gonna be constructive today and give you all something you can apply to your lives: some of my mad cooking skills. And indeed, they pay the mad cooking bills. Thus, here is a recipe for your enjoyment and edification.

LEMONADE

but what about the vodka?
i'm sure there should be vodka in there somewhere.

oh yeah, carnies. i'll use brake fluid instead.

i did copy out the recipe. gonna give it a try this summer. bitter cold doesn't really put me in a lemonade drinking mood.
oso:
you pretty much described how i was a coupla years ago.

i used to get invited to parties all the time, just 'cos people wanted to see what i'd do or say next. you get to feel kinda pressured after awhile.



by the way, i really appreciated your Pol Pot referrence. the first car i got when i was 16, i tore the head off a little toy man, mounted it on a toothpick, and stuck it in the dashboard. my friends asked what it was for, and i told them that my dashboard was going to be a diorama showcasing Man's Inhumanity To Man, and that i was starting out with a representation of the Killing Fields.

they believed me. i'd really just been fucking around.

Work was kind of weird today...there were mad sexual allusions everywhichway, and bizzarreness ensued. In the end, my friend Guy (thats short for Gaiden, or something) ended up putting on this weird 4-way rubber band over his pants as a thong and I had to promise to give this girl Sarah a lapdance on her birthday. Whenever things end up in that sort of disarray,...
