Röyksopp ‘This Must Be It’

Not sure if its medication, dryness or something errily biblical but I constantly get nose bleed. I have for about ten years. There is something about them, I almost enjoy them but at the same time they panic me. We’re not talking about a drip here, were talking serious flow action. I figure at the rate my nose bleed, I could bleed out approximately a 1/2 cups worth in under a minute.
Seeing the life literally drain out from my body has always freaked me out and a nose bleed is no different. I passed out getting a blood test once. I remember seeing the dark, almost black un-oxidized blood swirling around the test time draining out of the arm and the blackness. I thought I was dead. A heads up, death/nothingness is very peaceful.
The smell of baked goods in the air, mashing up with sewer, sushi and dampness. Tokyo has distinct traits about itself, simply walking into the airport in Tokyo you can smell and feel that you’re in japan. It’s beautiful, other aspects quality remain up in the air.
So we are partying in this night club, dancing, mostly with other drunks, lots of dudes, lots of black people working in this bar, lots of douches. What the fuck is wrong with this bar, this bar kinda sucks, I’m having fun, but this bar is pretty crap. Thanks one more vodka tonic OK, I’m drunk, lets do this. Look at me I’m standing and dancing on the booth. I’m having a ton of fun now. FUCKING TOKYO IS AWSOME. Wait a minute…. Indian dwarf on the dance floor? I’m in non-sexual love.


So I’m talking to optomus prime and he says, “dude you should totally come to earth” you should fly over here and party. Babes be trippin” So I think to myself, you know, I could use a change. So I get over to earth and see this thing, apparently it’s called a “space shuttle” . Wanting to be low profile I totally make myself look like this common vehicle. Oh, I also saw this thing called a “bird”. BRAIN BONER! I will combine the bird and space shuttle, I never really wanted to have arms so I was set.
Now in all seriousness, I had this toy as a child, I was a stupid stupid child, I thought it was rad at some point, but in retrospect, this thing sucks. First off its so unrealistic that even I’m embarrassed. I mean a robotic space shuttle bird, I don’t understand what they are going for here. Also it had a wind up base that would transport it around. Anyone remember how shitty wind up stuff was in the 80’s. Remember those shitty little white knobs, and that plasticy grinding sound it would make. Even a child has enough torque to make sure every wind up toy they will ever have (in the 80’s ) will fucking break. The base turned into a gorilla I believe and would walk around too. But frankly I really hate this article now. I’m stoppingggggggggg
now.

I used to love movies, I went to film school, I’ve most likely spent a year or more in front of the screen watching films of all levels of quality. Recently, the film industry has taken a giant shit on us. The films released the past couple of years (minus a few) are utter garbage. With heavy saturation of style of substance, films are getting shittier and shittier, and audiences are getting dumber. It’s imperative in this shit-filled time that you hold on to quality like a fatty to frosting.
District 9 has been a long time in the making, freshman director Neil Blomkap, was originally tapped to make the multi-million HALO film a reality, but as Hollywood does, it took a shit deciding we needed another twilight and more Saws, project scraped forever. Then like a beacon of hope Peter Jackson flew down from his pile of money and produced Blomkap’s pet project; and District 9 was born.
I’ve watched the film about four or five times, aside from a rich story, great cinematography and acting the film successfully merges two distinct types of story telling into a fucking amazing, blood soaked, action-fest. Heavily using a faux-documentary storytelling, newscasts and security camera feeds the story is told realistically. No bullshit effects for the sake of effects, no recognizable actors, the film comes off as possible and plausible.
Coming out on Blu-ray Dec 22nd the disc will make a perfect holiday addition to anyone’s pile of consumerism. If you don’t like the movie you area fucking retard, it’s a perfect film filled with realistic romance, humor and heavy violence.
Snoopy he ain’t
The beagle is considered some kind of regal breed of dog. My sister received a beagle as a gift and while being a fully operational pussy magnet he has some hang ups.
Neediness-
We pampered him as a puppy, to be honest he was adorable, about the size of a small teddy bear and he always new to make eye contact like a pro. “Whoops, shit all over the place”. But wook at these sad eyes.
Wuss-
I’ve had a few dogs in my day and the beagle, or this one specifically is the biggest fancy lad I’ve ever seen. He won’t play with other dogs at the dog park, is terrified when he hears a coyote and was even butt crimed by a bulldog.
House Broken-
He is not. Being about 5 years old and formally trained by a dog trainer you’d think he wouldn’t fucking piss everywhere, you’d be wrong. If he even smells a faint particle whiff of anything he pisses all over it. In the house, in the yard, anywhere.
Even with his shortcomings; he’s a great dog, a spastic, ill mannered little guy and I love him.
He also nuts on my other dog’s head all the time.
Good Morning Miss Bliss
If you’ve ever been waiting for some Bayside high action only to get a terrible intro by Zack you’re unlucky enough to be watching an episode of ‘Good Morning Miss Bliss” the show is the “first” Saved by the Bell thing. And, it sucks shit. It is too legitimate, the characters aren’t funny and they tackle things like not being able to read well and teachers getting fired. I would rather watch a Malibu Sands Beach Club Episode than this shit.
Recently I survived what many may not; I ate “soul food” with a bunch of black people in Inglewood. I will say black person/people because when I was a kid on the news or whatever people were black, not African American. I think most people that are black would not even want to go to Africa. I would like to but that is beside the point. Anyway I could care less if someone called me a white guy, maybe peach color would make more sense but I think calling someone black is still okay even thought media is trying to spin this “African American” thing.
You know Brazil has the largest collection of slave descendants, so in turn should someone from Brazil that is black be called a “Brazilian African American”. I think they would get really tired of that. I know I would get tired of being called a “ European American from Ireland, Germany, France, England, Wales, etc. My great grandfather was a double agent for, get this. France and the US during WWI. I don’t get made if someone talks shit on France, the French are dicks. So by that defining statement I will refer to an “African American” as black. Unless one is around. Anyway back to the gang party.
It was a friend’s birthday party and after a few hours of “stacking” and crip walking we ate. Let me tell you as my first genuine experience with a large family of African descent (see it’s bothersome, I could have summed it up in one word) they know how to cook. Is that a stereotype? Why would something good be a negative stereotype? Like all Asians are smart? I know it’s not true but why would they care about the misconception. All Irish-German mixes have giant penises, grr I would be really upset if people believed that on a major scale. So the food, fucking pork like you wouldn’t believe and Salmon like I have never had in my life. Not to mentioneveryone gets together and is friendly. Maybe it’s cause Irish Catholic’s eat their own alcoholic young, but being black or any other “minority” does have one thing that whites don’t. Families like each other.
Have you ever seen a Mexican party at a park that doesn’t have like 45 people there. Also white peopledon’t take naps in public places. I think it’s probably cause they think the minorities will steal shit while they asleep, but regardless. I never see crackers napping in parks.There was legit dancing at the party, and as I representative from the white race, I think I did a horrific job dancing in front of everyone. It was a Hula lesson, but I couldn’t even do that right. I must have looked like the Tin man on ice. I busted out involuntary arm movements that probably made me look like I had MS or something.
Asians, aren’t the hottest dancers as I found out the hard way. The night ended with good cake, both white and chocolate; tolerance, cool. I was totally intolerant of the racial mixing of the cakes. I like chocolate cake, but I like white cake even better. See it’s still called white cake, but I don’t think they ever called it black cake. Anyway the cake was good. Black people are tight.

MOVIES THAT FUCK(ED) YOU UP.
Televisions use to be carved out of one piece of wood. When we were kids TV and films were different, with Regan in the white house, we could totally villify the Commies and drug lords. I remember cartoons were people tried to KILL each other. Remember G.I. Joe, they were fucking trying to kill each other, C.O.B.R.A. was trying to take over the fucking world. So they would settle their scores the old fashioned way, shooting blue and red lasers at each other.
It was a different time, maybe a simpler time, but ALF, Small Wonder and Mr. Belvedere raised us. The following films however, fucked us (me) up. So fucking creepy looking, and depressing. Movies back in the 80’s were fucking intense for kids. I would be traumatized by films, scared to walk down a dark hallway because of something. Now with all the CG, you might pop a boner for Lava Girl instead of freaking the fuck out and night after having watched THRILLER. I used to be fucking terrified by films, even garbage pal kids gave me nightmares. I had a rad one with the following elements in grade school; Robocop chasing me, and corn cob legs. I had corn cob legs and I was scared. Case in point, kids are stupid and should watch whatever they want.
Return to OZ
By far one of the most fucking creepy films ever made, this is one of the few films that as a child made me feel dirty. Why I don’t know, but regardless. It kinda makes me feel like I was molested or something.
The Neverending Story
I swear of all films from my childhood this one takes the cake for fucking me up the most. Way to go Wolfgang Peterson, you managed to take away all my self esteem in one fowl swoop. What the fuck were you think.
Flight of the Navigator
Oh my God. Take a nerdy looking kid, have him fall into a ditch in his back yard, and then have him appear again like 10 years later. Bullshit, the ditch was in his fucking backyard. His parents obviously tried to murder him and ended up escaping and wander off only to return, shit like that happens all the time in the 3rd world. Disney, your creepy child molester-esque movie sucks. I hate it. Sarah Jessica Parker is in it and I think talks about twisted sister. Would NASA really hire Sarah Jessica Parker? I doubt it, she was on square pegs though.
Close but no trauma
Mac and Me
Oh man, a kid in a wheel chair a naked alien that looks like he’s from Somalia and and amazing dance sequence in McDonald’s. It doesn’t get much better than this.
The Boy who could Fly
Man, was this ever fucking depressing, and I want to say it was a made for TV movie. Maybe not, if not why would my mother think I would like a movie about an autistic boy enough to rent it. I think I even owned it. Man, DP, learn to fucking light a scene, it looks like my grandmother’s house.
Life Goes On
TV, but you all know what I’m talking about…
And the fucking score, Gawd!
Why did Artax have to die in the swap? Cause he gave into the sadness.
Duke Nuk’em For(n)ever
Over ten years ago I played a game that reinvented the FPS genre. Duke Nukem 3D was the first FPS (first person shooter) that took the game to a third dimension. The game, like Doom or Wolfenstein, allowed the player to man a jet pack, throw pipe bombs and featured some of the best level design to date. The game was due I believe originally in 99, then it was 2000, then it became the infamous “when it’s done”. When it’s done became over ten years of waiting and hoping. It became the joke of the industry constantly winning awards for never showing up, being a thing of legend etc.
About a year ago a webblog posted a test session of the game, stating it was worth the wait, and amazing. It seemed like the game would actually show. That is until yesterday. May 6th brought news that 3D Realms (DNF’s publisher) was going under and work would cease. I smell bullshit, there is no way basically the most famous game never released ,will go unreleased. A handful of screen shots have trickled out over the years each one improving upon the previous.
Worth buying a PC for, I have been waiting for a eleven years for this game, never in my life have I waited a decade for anything except maybe doing it. Pray to your Gods, this game must be released.
UPDATE-
This is an old article, about 2-3 days after I initially wrote it that game was canned forever. Fuck you very much.
