Something Cool

Posted on

Two of these jumps actually made me hold my breath. Actually made me scared for a moment. Besides some of them being wicked cool, just the opening few seconds when a guy comes hurling by at fast speed in one of those flying squirrel suits is just damn cool. […]

What I’ve Read: IV

Posted on

Ahh, the summer of Klosterman continues. I recently finished IV, which was another collection of essays. Some were original, but a great deal of the book was a collection of essays that he wrote while working for publications like Spin and Esquire. Many of the topics once again verge all over the place. One section […]

This is the kind of idiot behavior my mother scolded me […]

My Childhood, Bastardized

Posted on

I sadly and dejectedly have to post the following trailer. I ranted about this movie almost one year ago to the day, and seeing this trailer renews my belief that Hollywood has no idea what they are doing. Of course, maybe they do, because there might just be a few million moronic teens who’ll spend […]
