Sorry, embedding disabled. This is so disappointing. Ridiculous lip-syncing. God.

At least Quantum of Solace ruled!

I'm sick

Blurgh.

It thought it was a singstar HANGOVER.

It turns out I'm sick. On the plus side, I'm definitely down for our XMAS MOVIE.

This remains my favourite song from any xmas movie (or Bond film):

This existed

At the height of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' popularity, a concert tour was held in 1990, premiering at Radio City Music Hall. The "Coming Out of Their Shells" tour featured live-action turtles (in costumes similar to the films) playing music as a band (Donatello; keyboards, Leonardo; bass guitar, Raphael; drums & sax, Michelangelo; guitar) on stage around a familiar plotline: April O'Neil is kidnapped by the Shredder, the turtle guys have to rescue her. The story had a very Bill-n'-Ted-esque feel, with its theme of the power of rock n' roll literally defeating the enemy, in the form of the Shredder (who only rapped, about how he hates music) trying to eliminate all music (interestingly, the first two films featured rap in their soundtracks). A pay-per-view special highlighting the concert was shown, and a studio album was also released. The track listing is as follows:

1. Coming Out of Our Shells!
2. Sing About It
3. Tubin'
4. Skipping Stones
5. Pizza Power
6. Walk Straight
7. No Treaties
8. Cowabunga
9. April Ballad
10. Count on Us

Since the tour was sponsored by Pizza Hut in real life, there are many references to their pizza. Empty Pizza Hut boxes are seen onscreen during the "Behind The Shells" VHS. As part of a cross-marketing strategy, Pizza Hut restaurants gave away posters, audio cassettes of "Coming Out of Their Shells," and "Official Tour Guides" as premiums.

You really need to watch Flava Of Love



The spittee (New York) ends up being runner up in this season (one). She comes back for series two, and COMES SECOND AGAIN.

HOT.



That's how it feels to own a Playstation 3 (and be married (and be going on honeymoon to Fiji)).

I'm a pretty hot/classy/sexy guy.

I LOVE JAY Z.

Blueprint 3 is going to be amazing.

Reaper Isabeau VS Rare Akuma

Have you ever wondered why we started blogging?

THE WHOLE REASON WE STARTED BLOGGING.

"Move it like a CHICK in a Bollywood FLICK"

God yes!

Solid as Iraq!

To celebrate my final day of work, I though I would embed my first ever youtube video to our blog. A fine idea, thwarted only by Ghostface not allowing the 'embed' option. Nonetheless, please enjoy THIS LINK TO GHOSTFACE KILLAH'S WE CELEBRATE.

I'd also like you to know much I am looking forward to i) sharing a lovely lunch of noodles with you; and ii) composing a hilarious, pirate banner and CAPS LOCK filled farewell email sent to 'all staff' at my work. There'll be many innuendos, pirate jokes, parentheses, html links etc. It'll be great.

THE SEQUEL!!?!1!!(!!!) (?)!(!!!!!?!)!!1!11!!!!

My parents rule!

MY DAD'S MOTHERFUCKING FAMOUS!!!!!!!!!

AND he admits that the Holocaust happened!

My dad should be the pope, man. I love Bill.

Also, did you design the poster for the film adaptation of 'He's just not that into you'?

Soph (because you read this sometimes) do you write for Stereogum's video offshoot Videogum?



Lamest thing ever or best thing ever???


The fact it's on, like, a thirteen year old has turned this blog into a child porn* website but - nonetheless - I feel we need to decide whether this tattoo (that, now I think about it/look at it, is probably fake) is lame or awesome.





* = will that phrase get us more Google 'hits' or whatever?

P-mix

THIS could be my mixtape cover?


I have to do the 'end of year review' thing. I keep listening to the first track from this album where Tony Yayo explains that he'll have you killed while he's in London (motherfucker). It's super lol.

I think I love G-Unit. Can't wait to get my hands on Fiddy's album (or watch his movie!).

Also: "late night sex/Patron on ice/baby we could do whatever you like... yeeeeeeah"

I think it's kind of gross how older male TV personalities openly joke about finding female interviewees attractive during interviews

No foolin'

Just phoned a client and her answering machine message finished with, "the better looking you are, the faster the response."

In real life.

Love your DOUBLE S REVIEW.

More so than THE SS.

Trivia

I'm ready to help with the sports questions, man.

Let's do(g) it!

Another reason that Karl's amazing



He's not just good at receiving phone calls, he also emails amazing photographs. I now want to own (and breed) foxes. All day long. How much fun would it be? How many puns would be available?!

"Ooops! No, you can't outFOX me there, little fella. Stop weeing inside."

"Time to watch [that movie where he plays an actor researching playing a policeman but during the research actually turns out to be an effective policeman] starring Michael J FOX"

And here's an actual film (that actually got made) starring Big Boi, and Lil Wayne (as himself)



When "street smart" rapper Christopher "C-Note" Hawkins (Big Boi) applies for a membership to all-white Carolina Pines Country Club, the establishment's proprietors are hardly ready to oblige him. Unwilling to accept that the club views him as unfit for membership, C-Note purchases land that contains the 17th green - willing only to exchange the hole for a membership. This sets the stage for an outrageous assault on the country club and its membership committee as C-Note and his fun-loving, streetwise crew disrupt the goings-on at the club with their irreverent attitudes and a back-and-forth prankfest.

At one point, C-Note plans to shoot a music video on the club's land. That leads the Club President, Cummings (Jeffrey Jones), to offer a bribe to get him to stop, but all C-Note wants is a membership to the club. President Cummings then hires Shannon Williams (Tamala Jones), an uptight lawyer who graduated Harvard at the top of her class. She goes to Christopher's house, he refuses yet another attempt to bribe him to leave.

As a last resort, she devises a plan to allow him to join the club then to record him violating the club's bylaws to kick him out while he is on the club's 4 week probationary period. On separate occasions, he is accused of landing a helicopter on the property, bringing a gun onto the golf course and driving recklessly on the way to the golf course. Eventually, all the charges are proven wrong and C-Note is officially made a member of the Carolina Pines Country Club.

So satirising the plots of these types of movies is pretty old, and yet this hypothetical summer blockbuster from The Onion is really lol



Perseverance: A hard-nosed but caring coach organizes a group of ragtag black youths—one of whom is played by a hip-hop artist—into some sort of sports team. Things go badly, then they get better, then there's some racism, then they win state

You know I'm a die-hard fan


But McDonalds' new 'seared chicken' range is a giant misstep in their war on unhealthy. There's something slightly genital-esque about the actual chicken, and the sauce made me gag.

Also, why do they keep debuting new chicken burgers when the (perfect) McChicken exists?

Still hungover?

Are you???

ou can come find me, I will be the one with the very broad shoulders, dark hair and a simple suit. We can have some champagne, you and me.


(I got this from the awesome OHH.com)

Jen Claude Van-Damme needs to stop dying his hair. He looks horrible. That quote is from HERE.

...

How great was last night? I can't believe that Urthboy and Spit Syndicate are going to play at our wedding (only to do one song each, too!). Pretty amazing.

Remember singing 'The Longest Time'? Remember me buying Grainwaves, then forgetting I bought Grainwaves? Remember Santana? Memories...

I miss Conan.

Apparently he had two Finnish guests who came on his show and told him about the Finnish President (below) and how much he looked like her. He got into the idea and said (once he'd found out he was fairly popular in Finland) that if she won her next election, he'd go to Finland. She did win. He did go.

Remember that skit with the previous night's audience getting the 'wrong idea' and it was like Conan was cheating on them? Then he suggests that they 'work it out' with the new audience? I love Conan.

When (if?) we get Foxtel, I will watch it so very regularly.

The memories!

Triumph!

So many great lines...

Why my job is fairly depressing...

ONE OF THE REASONS.

He's called Dark Claw: half Batman, half Wolverine. It's when DC and Marvel did a few comics together. Lame.

Man, I am not very busy. I should be calling utilities and cancelling electricity for Glebe etc., but it'd be too loud; too obvious at work. Instead I read about stupid collaborations of comic book manufacturers and try to not commit heaps of suicide.

...

Oh! Have you seen THIS FILM?

Remember our best friend Girl Talk?

God I love ozhiphop at times like THIS.

The photographer's a douche and everyone involved is taking themselves super seriously.

I'm (going to guest) on one track, and already I'm worldwide

Oh shit... !!!!!

HERE.

Oh shit!

P.S. In Buck's night news, I can't believe we did so much amazing shit. I swear I've fractured my coxsix (sp?) too. I'm going to see a doctor. I'm hobbling around hilariously.

Wall ball, laserzone, phoning call, race track, cricket, battling, getting stabbed, skidding, tequila, sangria, Byron Bay lager, battling, embarrassing questions, battling, drinking, Flava Flav, abortive searches for cocaine etc. etc.

I'm back like the Monaco Bar!

How great were Monaco Bars. I think I'm going to get one today to see if they were as good as I remember them.

I also tried Grain Waves. HOLY SHIT. Why does there have to be so much delicious stuff, Googs? Why? Don't they know I'm getting married soon?

Also: 136th post (!)

Time's "50 greatest inventions of '08" is pretty inspiring


And not in that empty 'video message of hope set to restrained piano, possibly directly post 9/11' sort of way. I kept saying "wow!" out loud (true story). My favourite is the Seed Vault, but it's a close race.

You win. I lose

You win.

As your prize: concept art from Tim Burton. It's how he envisaged the Joker.

Hours left to vote: 2

Talespin!

That's what it was called. Wikipedia tells me that my brother's and my favourite episode - 'lost Horizons', about a mystical kingdom known as 'Panda-la' - was temporarily banned for being allegedly racist. Also:



This shit just got real.

Status - Blogging

Like the AUSTRALIAN CRICKET TEAM, my once mighty (blogging) powers are fading...

Who'm I gonna call?
Launchpad McQuack!

Remember Launchpad?

Haha.

Days left to vote: 1


Though I'm quietly confident, your extra vote and the "Change your vote" function fill me with unease. I'm a bit of a custard puff atm (which are delicious, ps)

My (fairly crazy) dream (also: Spit Syndicate rules)


Double S rule. What a show.

...

I had the maddest dream last night. It was night time and I was on a bus. It was full. We were being harassed by Giger style aliens. In the dream, I understood that the aliens were going to kill us all and that was going to be it so I went to the entrance of the bus and was like, "fuck it. If we're all going to get killed, you may as well kill me first."

The alien lifted up my rib cage and spit acid saliva on my heart. It (telepathically) explained to me that I'd be dead really fast; the acid's like that. I went back and took my seat waiting for death. Then I waited a little more. I was dying but not dead.

So then I'm like, "look, I'm sure your acid's really great and it works well most of the time and you're great Mastah Killahs or whatever, but I'm dying slowly and painfully here. Just put a bullet through my brain. A bullet. It's not hard. Take out your little gun, pull the alien trigger, and put an alien bullet in brain. Easy. If you're scared it's cool. I'm sure your violent invasion will go great if you're just pussies with slightly acidic saliva."

I was shot through the head three times.

Then it changes. I'm still mortally wounded, but now I'm driving our dinner table (!) back to Greenwich. It's a beautiful day. I figure I'll die at the house I grew up in with family, you see, so I phoned Al and mum and Bill and told them to meet me there.

Then: I bumped into you and Rob. You guys were admirably disappointed about my impending doom, but handled it well. Then you hopped on my car/dinner table and started heading to Greenwich.

I got to Greenwich, had a shower, got into bed, and died.

It was fairly odd.

This is so retarded.

The Hangover

*Hilltop Hoods voice* What a great night!

Highlights include playing 'Substitute' and being asked to "keep it down" and you eating octopus for the first time.

As a result, though, I am profoundly hungover. I did go to boot camp today, but I am still mad hungover and desperate for some fat and salt. So here's the plan:

I feel a bit bad that I'm supporting the system and dirty, greedy fatcats but I am fairly hungry. And super hungover.

My new favourite new dad/Rovey!/blaaah joke

My boss said this:

"I made a small fortune in horse racing. Of course, I started off with a large fortune!"

Blaaah!

It's neck and neck


Don't you think it's lol how closely our own poll mirrors the US election?

Plus you look heaps like McCain, and my dad was born in Kenya, so.
