hell motherfucking yes.

what’s next, jon & kate plus 8 on psp?

holy crap.

so just this past sunday I got guitar hero (don’t even make me link that up, you know what it is). I played it a little when I was at dan’s over thanksgiving and I was hooked.

I tore right through it on EASY mode so I ventured forth on MEDIUM. I was able to successfully complete each song at this new setting and burned right through right up to the very last song to beat the game.

ozzy osbourne’s bark at the moon.

it’s widely regarded as the toughest song in guitar hero and it’s no exaggeration. this song repeatedly kicked my ass. repeatedly.

until tonight.

after my buddy alex came over and showed the song can actually be conquered (the dude is a few years’ veteran of GH) I took a stab at it. I came dangerously close to flaming out right at the end (the song ends with an impossible guitar solo) but I somehow managed to sputter my way to the finish line.

I felt like it was some sort of nerd rite of passage. and it was great.

I saw tonight the king of kong: a fistful of quarters. if you haven’t heard of it, it’s a documentary of one man’s drive to beat the world record in donkey kong.

it’s easily in the top 5 films I’ve seen this year. this film is to donkey kong as spellbound is to the national spelling bee. it’s so gripping, full of human drama and emotion.

I mean, come on, how often do you see a 98% rating on rotten tomatoes? (other than the two movie links I have in this entry…)

I’m not gonna lie, this entry was heavily influenced by mike’s post over here. it got me thinking . o O ( how many take on me covers could I find on imeem? )

answer: a shit ton.

so I picked some of my favorites from the bunch and put it together in a convenient little playlist. go on. indulge.

those game-like flash banners on sites, which you have to click on your mouse like a fucking fiend to “win” something. whether it’s beating up george bush, lassoing steer, a race to see who can dig faster, I can’t keep myself from going nuts on those things.

and you “win” a ringtone or something. but who wants that? I just wanna keep clicking.

damn, I just found out today that you can see who’s been peeping your profile on friendster. sure you have the option of viewing profiles anonymously, but.

then again it can also be kinda sad. a whopping 13 people looked at my profile the month of september. hmph.

they really list everything, don’t they?

List of films: U.S. box office bombs

my roommates are completely obsessed with need for speed underground 2. they seriously play this game whenever the tv isn’t being used (and by “whenever the tv isn’t being used” I mean whenever lesley and tracy aren’t watching the l word).

the soundtrack to this game is kinda interesting. they have songs by bands like helmet, rise against, killing joke, unwritten law, as well as like snoop dogg and terror squad.

but it seems like whenever I sit down to watch them playing the game “lean back” song by terror squad ALWAYS comes on.

as with any other game the further you progress the more cool features become available to you. I think they should also let you unlock new songs, because I’m tired of doing the lean back when I watch them play.

I got a link from a buddy of mine and it’s fun if you have a spare minute to kill.

guess the google

try this shit out.

ps- the scary kids‘ new song is good btw — kind of the slow tempo ballady sound, you know.

[NOTE: looks like they took it down]
