So needless to say that we don’t talk about music on the site here, and for good reason. Me trying to review music is about as productive as an elephant trying to solve a Rubix Cube, and therefore I try to stay away from it as much as I can.
Today, I’m not posting Lady Gaga’s video for Bad Romance to talk about the music, I just think that it’s kind of important to mark one of those moments that feel like the future has actually arrived. Like the first time you found your house on Google Earth, or when you played with your iPhone for the first time.
In this case, Lady Gaga’s video to me encompasses the future of pop, and I’m heavily reminded of Chris Tucker’s character in The Fifth Element. That was what, the year 3000 and we all laughed at how comically over the top his hair and clothes were? Well, we’ve had pop stars wearing wigs and sequins for years, but to me Gaga is the only artist who is truly trying to change everything, and after watching this video, I couldn’t help but think that finally, I was living in the future if THIS is now the world’s most popular artist.
Remember when the first Nintendo system came out? Hell I can remember playing Gyromite! Think about how much that system has evolved over the years. Well let’s go back to around the same time shall we? Let’s trek back and take a look at something we’re all familiar with: Microsoft Windows.
From the DOS days all the way up to the frustration of Windows Vista we’ve all had our ups and downs with the software giant. We’ve laughed, cried, and have even smashed our screens. But Windows, you’ve always been there for most of us.
Check out this amazing photo evolution of Microsoft Windows
How do I say this without sounding insensitive? The Japanese are into some weird shit. Of course I’m aware that there’s a massive cultural difference, but I’m always more fascinated/scared of Japanese stuff than I am others. Like, tentacle rape porn? Wow. Anyway, Domo-kun is one of those strange Japanese inventions that for some reason I really like.
The first image of Domo-kun I had ever seen was on that poster that read “Every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten.” Pretty funny. Domo-kun is the mascot of a Japanese television station and, a lot like Hello Kitty, has appeared on all sorts of things. What the hell it actually is, I have no idea.
Take a look at Domo-kun taking over just about anything you can think of after the jump.
Text from friend: “Dude, you have to write a story about Nicolas Cage hanging out with Somali Pirates.”
Me: “What the ***?”
Friend: “Google it.”
Result:
“Nicolas Cage recently met pirates imprisoned in Kenya, as part of his job as a UN Goodwill Ambassador on Drugs and Crime.
The actor visited Shimo La Tewa prison in the Kenyan coastal town of Mombasa to interact with suspected Somali pirates awaiting trial and know the reason behind the increase in piracy in the Indian Ocean.
Cage insisted that he wanted to hear the pirates’ stories, reports Fox News.”
What the…? Who made Nicolas Cage a UN Goodwill Ambassador? I understand like, Angelina Jolie filling that position, as licking her lips could probably get North Korea to just hand her a pile of nukes, but Nic Cage? Is he going to intimidate people into peace with his hair?
As it turns out, Rob Schneider is not dead as you may have suspected, he’s actually getting into fights with local radio hosts on air these days, and it makes for some pretty excellent video.
Apparently Rob was kept waiting for fifteen minutes in the 955 parking lot, and when he came inside was quite pissed off about it, then once he got on the show he wouldn’t let the issue go, until finally the hosts start yelling at him for being an asshat, and then everyone storms off set. Good times!
I think there’s a general sense of all around douchebaggery on everyone’s part here, but I think a lot of the blame does lie with Schneider, yes?
I’ve seen case mods and I’ve seen case mods. From the completely badass to the completely dorky to the practical? I guess that’s the word I’d use to describe this particular PC Modification.
Featuring a sofa, armchairs, coffee table and even a working lamp, this miniature room in a computer seems created especially for the little guys in The Borrowers movie. And accessories like the gumball machine and the New York Times newspaper make it look like a real home.
The creator might want to consider keeping the side panels open though. Would be a pretty ugly fire or “meltdown” in there if you know what I mean. Ba dum ching!
Does anyone remember this picture? It’s when Alec Baldwin won his Emmy award. Is anyone else as big a fan of Baldwin as me? I mean you take a guy that has really gone from A-Z in film and TV huh? People always seem to forget that Baldwin was a sex symbol back in the day. Yes, a sex symbol.
From his roles in The Hunt For Red October to even Working Girl, the guy was slim, handsome, and rarely funny. But then boom. Out of nowhere the guy shows up in Outside Providence, uses the word “dildo” and he’s off to the fat middle aged guy funny races.
Now he’s on top of the world in 30 Rock. Baldwin is the man. And here are 15 incredible photoshops of him just doing stuff
Honestly I have no idea who made these. I found them in some random forum. But come on. When someone takes the time to make all these wacko demotivational posters with a Bon Jovi theme combined with anime? Let’s just say there has to be a place on the internet for this crap.
And Unreality is the perfect forum. I mean really? Why in the world would someone come up with this? Then again when you really think about it, it’s incredibly awesome.
Why? Because the internet DOES have a place for just about anything. And if we want to post 15 Anime posters based on Bon Jovi lyrics then by God we’re gonna do it.
