Cowabunga, dude

July 21, 2006 by Tim

Heh, Pierre does the newspost for me one day and I’m already out of the routine. Go figure. News recently broke that the World of Warcraft expansion, Burning Crusade, will give Paladins and Shaman (the only two classes unique to each side) to the opposing faction (though only to the new races). Now I haven’t […]

Go ahead, make my day

July 19, 2006 by Tim

Hey folks! My name is Pierre. You might remember me as “The ZeStuff guy” or “The guy that coded this beautiful website”. I’m stealing Tim’s spotlight today because I have an important announcement to make. The ZeStuff team is looking for a web graphic designer. That person will be the lead designer for ZeStuff.com and […]

Thanks

July 18, 2006 by Tim

You know, not a day goes by that I’m not thankful that I get to do this for a living. I consider myself very fortunate to be in the situation I’m in. But there are some days that that feeling is nearly overwhelming, when it really hits me. So for your part in making all […]

Snort

July 17, 2006 by Tim

Let’s see… interesting tidbits… hmmm… Dead Rising has been banned in Germany. Man, I really feel sorry for you folks. Dead Rising is my the next biggest game on my “Oh my god I’ve gotta have it, I’m drooling all over myself” list of anticipated games. Only a few weeks left to wait, too! City […]

Scanner and Teamfortress 2

July 15, 2006 by Tim

A Scanner Darkly was awesome. If it’s playing near you, I highly recommend it. And have you seen the graphical style that Teamfortress 2 will be using? I love it. Everyone is so focused on making games realistic nowadays, it’s nice to see we can still use our ever-increasing processing power to create something with […]

Pirates

July 14, 2006 by Tim

I loved Dead Man’s Chest. A couple of things bothered me though. Ending on a cliffhanger of sorts- Ugh. Why go The Matrix route? They get a smash first film, and when they decide to go “trilogy”, they say “Hey! I know! We can make the last two films one long film!”. At least the […]

Experience

by Tim

Going to see A Scanner Darkly tonight, and I’m psyched. There’s a 24 minute preview (ie, the first 24 minutes of the film) available at IGN, which was outstanding. I’m not going to link it directly, because it contains nudity, and while I don’t run a site for children, the last thing I feel like […]

Head trip

July 12, 2006 by Tim

A Scanner Darkly is a limited release (it’s not going to be in every theater), but thankfully a small indie theater up the street will be showing it this Friday, so I’m pretty psyched. Richard Linklater’s previous film, A Waking Life, is done in the same art over film style, and it’s really fun to […]

A Scanner Darkly

Even if the movie ends up sucking, it looks fucking gorgeous.

Firepants

So my newspost on Friday caused a little bit of turmoil, you might say. I want to thank everyone who emailed me. It was interesting to read all the different points of view on the topic. It’s kind of funny, because originally I had only planned to use the controversy over the ad to set […]

Thank you

July 7, 2006 by Tim

Emails regarding this subject, on both sides of the fence and from dozens of different points of view and backgrounds, are coming in faster than I can keep up with them. Agree with me or not, I just want to thank everyone for writing in to express your particular opinion, and though I may not […]

Here’s a different take on my view. No one is offended that the billboard suggests a precursor to violence. No one is offended that it’s two women involved in violence. If it had been two white women, one in a white suit, one in a black suit, nobody would say a thing. Furthermore, nobody has […]

Sony has a recent history of some really off the wall and offensive advertisements going, but I don’t know if some of you have seen this one. I read about it on Joystiq thanks to a reader pointing it out: Now at first glance, this stands to be a pretty offensive advertisement. That was my […]

Yep

Ok, fine, I get it. I suck at haikus. The DMV is still the hemorrhoid on Satan’s asshole.

A haiku?

There is rage in meThe DMV sucks much ballsSo much hate. So much.

Net Neutrality

July 3, 2006 by Tim

Oh good lord. Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) on why he voted against Net Neutrality: There’s one company now you can sign up and you can get a movie delivered to your house daily by delivery service. Okay. And currently it comes to your house, it gets put in the mail box when you get home […]
