I need tiny hands to play these mini arcade cabinets…
Sometime last year (in the spring, maybe? honestly, I've been out of the blogging loop so long, I don't remember) friend, fellow blogger & TMNT fan Tommy over at Top Hat Sasquatch posted some photos of mini arcade cabinets that looked to be the perfect size for...
Ninja Turtles + Vanilla Ice + Mac & Cheese = Mandatory Post on this Blog
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-lT1oOU7b4 Okay so we've got new TMNT fruit snacks, candy, and fucking mac & cheese now. Where the hell is my TMNT cereal?
Do you like board games? ANSWER ME, YOU MAGGOTS!
Few things have been able to drag me out of hibernation status, but one of those things is the Nerd Lunch podcast. Specifically Episode #119, in which we remember all of the awesome board games we had growing up. I joined resident nerds CT, Jeeg, and Pax for a...
I don’t do yard sales.
This week's League assignment is to write about our most epic yard sale or flea market find ever, and so far there's been a lot of great posts as everyone shows off their treasures. I, on the other hand, almost never go to yard sales or flea markets, so I had to...
Friendly remindarrr! Today is Talk Like a Pirate Day
If you arrr not talking like a pirate today, YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG. That's right me hearties, today is September 19th--Talk Like a Pirate Day, which is right up there with Christmas on the awesome holiday hierarchy. Well, arrright, maybe that's giving it too much...
I’ve got Turtle balls!
When I saw a tweet from my pal Dex of AEIOU & Sometimes Why that mentioned "Stuffed Turtle Balls" I thought it sounded like a gross appetizer from a fancy French restaurant (for the record, I don't think I could ever bring myself to eat Turtles, since they're...
21 Boringly Blue Things About Me
On one hand, I think I should be given a pat on the back for making such a glorious return to form after being absent from these weekly League assignments for at least a couple of months now. On the other hand, this was such an easy post to do because I basically...
Mandatory Two Month Check-In
Sorry, this is going to be one of those "Has it really been X days/weeks/months since I last posted something?" kind of posts, which are the worst kind of posts. Seriously, I hate these posts, but what I hate even more is looking at the calendar each day and seeing...
I’m either too cool for Cult Film Club, or not cool enough.
Either way, I wasn't able to join my co-hosts Paxton Holley and Shawn Robare down in Jacksonville, FL today for a real-life meetup of the Cult Film Club. That makes me sad-faced, and not only because Shawn tells me I missed out on delicious barbecue and Mountain...
A bunch of awesome crap I’d buy from Hake’s if I wasn’t broke!
Back in March, my homies and I in The League went on a fantasy shopping spree to Hake's Americana and Collectibles where I racked up a bill for over $1600 worth of useless but totally awesome crap that I'm certain would look fantastic adorning the walls of Casa de...
The Power of this Creepy Candy Store Logo Compels Me
Just a word of warning, this post will contain a bunch of loosely associated memories with no real point to my sharing any of them, beyond just getting them out of my system so I can feel better. Nostalgia is kind of like barfing that way. What started as a...
Finding a place for Ouya in my crowded gaming life.
It's been almost a month since I've had my Ouya, the upstart open-source game console I backed on Kickstarter, and I've been wanting to share my thoughts about it--mainly how, despite being a little rough around the edges, it's well worth its $99 pricetag and why...
