Resident Evil: Degeneration

Posted by zhx on December 17th, 2007 filed in All, Video Games

An original Resident Evil CG movie is on its way; should be interesting to see the franchise handled correctly.
Edit: Oh, Jesus Fuck. Apparently Sony Pictures thinks advertising is copyright infringement. The video has been removed. Let me describe it:
EXPLOSION!!!!!!
[Claire Redfield arriving at airport]
[Shots of zombies]
[Closeup of firing gun]
[More shots of zombies, people running]
EXPLOSION!!!!!
[People running, plane [...]

Scientists Push Presidential Candidates for Positions on Science: Does Spiderman Have Access to Kryptonite?

Posted by zhx on December 14th, 2007 filed in All, Religion/Politics

Interesting article from Wired here about a push to get presidential candidates to explain what role science will play in their potential administrations. The Republican candidates have better things to worry about, though.
Since real news is a little dry, I’ve summed up the point here:
Republican Candidates Duke it Out Over the Important Issues
Huckabee: Mr. Romney, [...]

Online Social Experiment Proposal

Posted by zhx on December 13th, 2007 filed in All, Computers

So here’s a brilliant idea I half created/half ripped-off earlier today:
There’s a ton of 2 girls 1 cup reaction videos floating around online in the past month or so (or whenever 2 girls 1 cup broke onto the scene), as watching peoples’ reactions to one of the internet’s most outrageous videos is just as entertaining [...]

Deprarious

Posted by zhx on December 12th, 2007 filed in All, Randomness

I thought I had come up with a new word, deprarious, and was disappointed to discover the entry on Urban Dictionary. Urban Dictionary defines deprarious as “A combination of the words depressing and hilarious, indicating that a situation is so depressing that all you can do is laugh at it. A mixture of extreme emotions,” [...]

Happy Next Door: The Story of a Boy’s Magical Harmonica that Resurrects His Deceased Father in the Form of a Snowman with a Heart of Gold

Despite its low-contrast display and appetite for expensive watch batteries, when the Dreamcast was in, I was really into the VMU. I nearly always had it with me, and along with Pokémon Blue, VMU classics Zombie Fishing and Punches and Love got me through my senior year classes. At some point, somebody wrote a sloppy [...]

Lennon - God

Posted by zhx on December 8th, 2007 filed in All, Music

I thought that since I posted last year on the anniversary of his death, it wasn’t really necessary to say anything this year, but finally decided that my blog could use more Lennon.
This year I thought I would post God, one of my favorite songs off one of my favorite albums of all time, Plastic [...]

This Just In: Liberty, Gift from God, or Mitt Romney: Douchebag

Posted by zhx on December 8th, 2007 filed in All, Religion/Politics

If you don’t have the time to watch the 15 minutes of video I linked to below (the Faith in America speech), here’s the highlights (paraphrased):
“Mormons believe in God™ too, you know! Don’t NOT vote for me just because you don’t get the whole underwear thing.”
“Religion is the single most important thing on Earth, ESPECIALLY [...]

Thoughts from the Grocery Store

Keep it Above the Belt, Salvation Army
Approaching the entrance to Safeway today I noticed that the Salvation Army, in a brash attempt at boosting revenue through the “sympathy donation”, took the liberty of planting a bell-ringer in a fucking wheelchair in front of the store. I acted really interested in some colorful signage around the [...]
