All Sorts of Crazy New Stuff

I know, I know, I’m working on the theme. Let me explain all the new functionality:
Stuff you may or may not care about:
• Commentators (people that leave comments on my blog, not what french fries are made out of*) can now edit their comments for up to ten minutes after posting. This is useful if [...]

Batman R.I.P.

While The Dark Knight approaches a bazillion dollars in ticket sales worldwide, the Batman of the comic book world is being laid to rest. I read somewhere online that the final issue of the latest running storyline comes out tomorrow and Batman (or Bruce Wayne) is going to be killed or…something. I was curious. I [...]

ZHX’s LIFE LESSONS VOL. I

A friend and I were having a conversation about Curb Your Enthusiasm and I confided that maybe I related a little too much to Larry’s character, to the extent that my GF has accused me of the crime of “being too much like Larry.”
Okay, so 99 out of 100 social interactions are completely meaningless and [...]

Blackberry-formatted TV Shows

So as part of my employment at Yahoo! I got a year of their hosting plan for free. Despite my resignation, this remains in effect, and I’ve been trying to come up with something to do with my (theoretically) unlimited bandwidth and space.
I’ve also been disappointed with the lack of a simple site for high-quality [...]

Christian Skateboarding Fashion = GAME OVER SATAN!

A friend sent me a pretty sweet link to some Christian clothing site. First of all, what the fuck does “Christian clothing” mean, anyway? I don’t see anything particularly Christian about any of the pictured outfits. In fact, in the “Main Christian Image Gallery,” I saw several photos of kids just standing in white t-shirts [...]

Blog Cliches

Several months ago Cameron and I were talking about well-known blog cliches. Specifically, titling the post with some shitty play on words and adding an unexpected, maybe-clever-maybe-not final line — normally contrarian in tone to the rest of the story — to the post. In retrospect, Cameron may have just been making fun of me [...]

Low Key

If you haven’t put it together yet, I’m a bit of an idiot. Not in all things, really — mostly just when it comes to not being an idiot. Case in point: Back on Halloween my GF sent me back home from the bar to fetch a camera. So I fetched a Cameron. Then we [...]

Softmodded My Wii

After the nightmare that was modding my first Xbox, I was a little hesitant to try it on any other systems, assuming it would be just as annoying. I read up a little on PS2 modding, but as an owner of the slim PS2, I don’t have a whole lot of choice (plus, I really [...]
