There’s an “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia” Christmas special that leaked online. I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet, but I’ve heard that it is pretty funny. You can download it here…

Grab some jellybeans, heat up a milksteak, and enjoy!
I was going to take the sarcastic approach and make a post along the lines of…
“I just got back from this year’s Gathering of the Juggalo’s, and man was it awesome! I only got stabbed once, and my homie KrustyWill hooked me up with free meth all weekend long! Check out my pictures here!“
But I think this is worth a second look. I was already aware of the Insane Clown Posse “scene” (I’ve most likely posted about them before), but the pictures (and video!) from this event just blow my mind. I came across the pictures on a forum a few days ago, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about them. I’m not a fan of the music, but everyone likes different stuff… No problem there. The thing is, every single person in attendance (based on those pictures) looks like a methed-out circus freak… And that is putting it nicely.
There was a time (back in 7th/8th grade I believe?) that I actually liked ICP. It was probably just the shock value of the music, but I still remember some of the songs, and they aren’t horrible. If I was hearing them now for the first time, sure, I’d hate them. But you know how that works… Music you liked way back in the day doesn’t sound bad to you now, even if you never listen to it anymore.
Anyway, I’m getting off topic here – What is it about this particular type of music that draws such a trashy, seemingly inbred crowd? Bands that fall into a unique niche tend to have their own unique followings (with The Disco Biscuits being another example of this), but the following of the Insane Clown Posse (and all of the other Psychopathic Records artists) are the most puzzling to me. I’m sure there are exceptions to the rule, but… Come on! I really don’t know what else to say.
If you didn’t watch that first video (“highlights” of the Gathering of the Juggalos”) that I linked to above… It really is worth checking out.
I never in a million years thought that I would be linking to Insane Clown Posse videos on YouTube from this site. It’s funny how that works. Anyway, I’m gonna go pick up a down-ass jugalette and kick back with some Faygo. MMFWCL.
I’m told that this is an amazing deal on an XBox 360. Sure, it’s refurbished, but it’s only $150, and I’m sure it comes with some sort of warranty. If I had more free time, I’d be all over this deal.
Unfortunately, I barely have enough time for my Wii as it is. I just hax0r3d the shit out of that thing so I can play “backups”, which is pretty awesome. Now I just need some time.
The “hack” was very easy, by the way, you just need a Wii (obviously), a copy of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and an SD card that is under 2 GB. By the way, I don’t own Zelda, and don’t plan on purchasing it (definitely no time for RPGs) so I signed up for a free 30 day trial of Gamefly. Blam.
Anyway, got pretty off topic there, hopefully someone else still has a little nerd left in them and can take advantage of some part of this post. I think I’m gonna run this image through the rasterbator. I’m gonna print it out and see if it’s visible from space. Okay, all kidding aside, I’m gonna go fondle my sweaters.
I don’t buy DVDs too often these days (I have way too many as it is) but when I do, my first stop is usually DeepDiscount (formally DeepDiscountDVD) because they usually have the lowest prices, and they offer free shipping. No, I’m not being paid to write this, although when “bloggers” are paid to promote businesses this is pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Anyway, I’m mentioning this because there are a bunch of 25% off codes floating around. Get 25% off orders from November 6th-23rd by using one of the following codes: DVDTALK, GREEN, SUPERSALE, SOUTHSIDE, or SAVE. There are more, though you only need one. Pretty awesome if you were planning on ordering some DVDs anyway – Christmas presents?
HitMeLater is a pretty cool service. If you get an email and you’re busy, forward it to 24@hitmelater.com and they’ll resend it to you 24 hours later. You can replace ’24′ with any number, as well as a day of the week, and you can also specify specific dates and time periods. Or… I suppose you could just mark the email as unread and come back it later. I actually have zero use for something like this, but it’s still kinda cool.
If you consider yourself even slightly tech-savvy, check out The 50 Skills Every Geek Should Have. I scored 25 out of 50 here, though I’m not much of a geek. More of a trogdor. Everything about this is awesome… I love the fact that velociraptorz is spelled with a ‘z‘ in the domain name.
Whoever came up with “My Face Condoms” is, well… Smart, I guess. I doubt they’re making bank off those, though it’s a pretty funny idea.
Obama won. Woo. Lesser of two evils. Not gonna get into all that. Play Super Obama World! Have a great weekend everyone.
Want to get 25% off of anything on eBay for the next few days? Live.com’s cashback feature will credit your account with up to 25% of your purchase on eBay (minus the cost of shipping and handling). This was actually at 30% for the past week or so, but it didn’t dawn on me to post it here until just now. You’ll need to create a free account at Live.com. If you want to activate the 25% savings, head to Live.com and search for something like ‘cheap PS3′ or ‘cheap Wii’. At the top of the SERP (search engine result page for you non-nerds) you’ll see an eBay ad with something along the lines of “You may get 25% off with PayPal if eligible.” Click on that, and it will take you to eBay. Find whatever it is that you’re looking for – I’d suggest ‘Buy It Now’ items, I’m not even sure if this works on normal auctions. When you click ‘Buy It Now’, the green “Microsoft Cashback 25%” graphic should still appear on the screen. It should also appear at the checkout page. I may have done a crappy job explaining this, so if you’re looking for more detailed instructions, check out this thread on the SlickDeals forums. Something I learned the hard way is that you wanna look for Buy It Now items with free shipping. Even if they cost more than the items that don’t come with free shipping, do a little math and figure out what your total cashback amount will be. Let me know if any of you actually take advantage of this. It takes like 60 days to actually credit to your account, but it’s definitely worth it in my opinion, especially on the larger purchases. I just bought a new digital camera, as my last one was stolen a few weeks ago at a party in Philly. This is my 8th digital camera… Yup.
