Stupid Orson Scott Card
(I really liked Ender’s Game and Speaker for the Dead, which makes it all the more annoying to find out that Card is a douche)

Blah, not cool.
I just found out that my Uncle Tommy had a heart attack! Luckily he is OK, and is expected to make a full recovery. This news really frustrates me. Out of all of my relatives, Tommy is the one who should NOT be having a heart attack. He has never smoked,never had a drop of alcohol (ever), eats well, and exercises daily. His doctor attributed it to genetics. It really is quite frustrating to see someone who has made personal fitness and health a true priority in his life be hit with a heart attack.
With all the technology and science at our disposal, why are we still crippled by stuff like this? It makes no sense.

Not quite the same.
I remember being absolutely thrilled when the icecream truck would come by my house. Now.. they just creep me out!
Oh well, it was fun. Hope you have a good career, but I sure won’t be watching any of your movies or buying any of your CDs.
Story HERE.

The “Duggar Family” is expecting their eighteenth child. I have seen their show on the Discovery Channel and to be honest, it had me pretty disgusted. When I heard the news of #18…
You know what? I’m not even going to bother with it. Jim Bob (yes that is his real name) and Michelle are irresponisible twats. Done.

Hello Youtubes…
One of my coworkers introduced me to Mr. Ronald Jenkees, a self taught musician who has put up a bunch of youtube videos. He likes to record a track and then jam out on his keyboard with some improv. I think it is fair to say that his improv is better than 99% of the commerical music industry!
(Two posts in one day… phew I should pace myself)
So, Teresa was browsing Netflix a few weeks ago and came across what sounded like a cool movie. She read me the description and then told me the title of the movie - “The Last Sin Eater”. Here is the exact description on Netflix’s website. (I rated it one star after watching it)
Boy, that sure sounds like a pretty badass movie especially with a sweet title like “The Last Sin Eater”. I noticed the movie was PG-13 so, while I didn’t expect to see mass decapatations or some kind of sin eating Bacchanalia, I did expect a little X-filesesque dark storytelling.
NOPE! Netflix you dirty scoundrel… you Rickrolled me. (For those of you who don’t know the term “RickRoll” it basically means to be duped into seeing something you were not expecting - the term used to specifially mean being forced to see THIS video but the term has evolved to encompass more). “The Last Sin Eater” isn’t about zombies. It isn’t about mutants. It isn’t even about eating sin! It is unfortunately about… Jesus.
Shame on your Netflix. Next time you want to Rickroll me, just send me a copy of Rick Astley’s video. Two hours of that would be MUCH more amusing than some nonsense about Jesus. BLAH!
