XKCD -Make me a Sandwich in Windows 7

Josh — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 20:09:13 +0000

One of the most famous XKCD comics is the Sandwich comic. If you haven’t read it, go here and laugh. If you read it and it doesn’t make sense go here and see why sudo make me a sandwich is funny. If you still don’t get it just laugh nervously.

If you are a Windows 7 user you can check out my Windows 7 remix of XKCD’s Sudo Make me a Sandwhich posted below which illustrates how to achieve the same superpower in Windows 7.

So cold my boogers are freezing!

Calvin with Frozen boogers

I just took the trash out and I couldn’t get, the above Calvin and Hobbes strips out of my head. It is seriously cold enough for Calvin to get frozen boogers out there people!

Full Strip originally run February 5th 1988.

I spent the next 20 minutes searching for an image online without any luck and finally found a site that let me search the text from any Calvin and Hobbes strip which told me what book it was in; including the page. So I pulled out The Complete Calvin and Hobbes
and captured it here for you.

Best…EULA…Evar

When I installed uberOptions a handy utility for anyone with a Logitech mouse I was presented what I consider to be the best EULA ever written.

Got any better EULAs, other than a lack of a EULA?

Zero Punctuation takes on Oblivion

My favorite video game skewer-er take on Oblivion and 2/3 the way through will make you spit whatever beverage you happen to be drinking out through your nose! You have been warned, enjoy the video below. As always with Yahtzee, not for the faint of heart or those listening in a cubicle.

Funny, especially when you consider to play Oblivion you need a book almost as thick as War & Peace to get anything done!

Hilarious CD sale on Cragslist

Josh — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 02:23:16 +0000

The title for this ad reads, “MUST SELL Lot of rare cds/ CHEAP (Cridersville, Lima area)” I clicked through thinking maybe something nifty would be included. Much to my surprise and the demise of my nose which became filled with diet Pepsi I found the following at the bottom of the list.

44. Limp Bizkit- Three Dollar Bill Yall
45. Limp Bizkit- Significant Other
46. Limp Bizkit- Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water
47. Limp Bizkit- Results May Vary

Can you really call any of these rare let alone describe the endeavor as “getting most of these cds wasn’t easy and it definitely wasn’t cheap”?

Something to enjoy as you head to bed.

The best Monday themed T-shirt…Evar

I found this cool Kill Mondays t shirt from TheGretest via tcritic and although it is a little pricey for my pecs, the design and message rock.

I found this hilarious instructional video on male hugging at Asylum a new website for men. If you ever wonder how to handle a hug form another dude, then this videe should provide a multitude of pointers in order to avoid embarrassing lingering and head injuries.

I couldn’t help myself, this is just the pickup I needed today. I think this guy needs backup ASAP. I almost want to say it is staged due to the number of people who appear form the Van but it seems to be genuine.

Niko and Vlad appear on SNL

Tobias Buckell tipped me off on this humorous skit in which Niko and Vlad, characters from GTA IV, vent about the perception of rough and tumble Liberty City. This skit cracks me up, maybe I should start watching SNL again…

Australian Easter Ducks, In Dresses

Apparently ‘Down Under’ they like to do things..uh..differently where it is an Easter tradition to dress up ducks like high fashion ladies and get them to prance about in front of a crowd. The reporter shares that this spectacle is a celebration of “rural industries”. I caught a version of the above video on the teaser for our local news show, thankfully Youtube spared me the agony of an hour of FOX news, though I was tricked into seeing the personal interest piece on a high school Sr. named Jordan Sparks, like the American Idol.
