Stolen from Cracked

I was reading this article on Cracked.com today about 6 technologies that should be dead, but aren't. As always (or usually) the articles on Cracked make me laugh out loud, or LOL, at least once. Hell, sometimes I even LMAO or ROFL. I like Roffeling, it puts me in a better mood.

Anyway, one of the technologies they speak of is magazines. I for one still read magazines sometimes, but I can see where they're coming from when discussing it's uselessness. Just read this excerpt from the article regarding magazines going belly-up:

" As for magazines, two that went bust in just the last year include Life and Stuff--which together should technically cover every subject ever. FHM US, Jane and Child also went under, covering all the bases from "liking tits" and "having tits" to "the purpose of tits." When a titty-triple-threat can't stay profitable there is just no way to make a profit. Trust us, we know. "

Yeah, so, that's good stuff right there. I chuckled a little bit on the line "should cover every subject ever" but the whole "titty-triple-threat" is just fucking hilarious. I'm still laughing a little bit now.

Anyway, that's all I got.

I was gonna post up the Transworld video "And Now..." but it's already been taken down.
Check back later, I'll find it somewhere else. Peace.

an example of wonderful writing

I came across a fantastic piece of writing on Cracked.com today.
In an article about the "Worst Best-Of Albums of All Time" they had this to say while reviewing Bruce Willis' double-disc greatest hits album:

"Best Moment:

At the 2:03 mark of an up-to-that-point less-than-lively rendition of "Under the Boardwalk," Bruce unexpectedly shouts "Yipee-ki-yay mother fucker!" and launches into a searing blues rock guitar solo so goddamned awesome we gathered up all of our Hendrix CD's and torched them sons of bitches lest we be subjected to their inferior axe work ever again. Ok, we made that up, Bruce doesn't really do that. There are no good moments to be found anywhere on this CD. It's pretty damn terrible from front to back."

Damn fine writing right there, I tell you whut.
