Official "Walking Dead" Poster Released Friday the 13th!


As if Friday the 13th wasn't creepy enough, we're all reminded today that we are just 1 month away from the return of The Walking Dead on AMC. As you can see here, Rick isn't afraid to use his revolver on any size zombie or err, Walker. Will the survivors be forced to leave the farm? Will Rick lose his sheriff hat for good? Will I poop my pants within the first 5 minutes of this series' return? ALL of these questions will hopefully be answered.

Gadget Review: The iShower




Coming in March of 2012 for a convenient price of $99.99, is the mother of all shower accessories...ear-drum roll please......The iShower!!! Finally, a shower attachment that allows you to sync your Apple or Android device and play music while in the shower. Yes, I fully understand that there are a plethora of these in existence, and as you know since you've most likely been sucked in to purchasing one of them, they ALL SUCK. Half of them will not sync, the volume will not function properly or they will just plain die on you. This one actually syncs to up to 5 different sources (Apple or Android) that can be up to 200ft away! Not only that, it can be removed from its shower base and be brought out to your poolside tiki hut without any fear of it getting wet and ruined. Even better, it actually has the time on it as well so you can have proof that you shampoo'd much longer due to trying to keep rhythm to the acoustic version of "Stairway to Heaven". Oh, and it also doubles as a fogless mirror. Nuff' said. You can pre-order the iShower at its official site Here

We Bought A Zoo...well, A "Human" Zoo.


Way to go India. Having a Zoo is one level of awesome, but a Human Zoo!? Just plain innovative. Theres alot of bullshittyness sparking out of a recent video released of a Human Zoo located on India's own Andaman Islands. Yes, obivously, I had to watch the video, and so can you Here. The video shows a primative tribe's women being forced to sing and dance for the camera. and NO, it is not the SPICE Girls. Apparently these "Human Safari Tours" are nothing new and up to atleast 8 Indian travel companies have been offering them. Well where the hell is the website?! and how much does this cost?! After the amount of money i dished out walking the 85 mile trek that is Disney's Animal Kingdom just to see a Fake, oversized tree and a 12 minute viewing of A Bugs Life 3-D, consider me in! BUMBLE-BEE-TUNA!!!

Twinkie The kid Files for Bankruptsy Protection



OK, well actually Hostess filed for bankruptcy protection, but SAME THING. Times a tough. Its worse when the creator of what could be the most popular snack cake around has to resort to Chapter 11. Hostess is blaming its problems with pension and medical benefits. Bull Shit. There has to be more to this, i believe that's just the yellow cake...i want the cream filling, if you catch my drift. It could be sabotage....thank about it it....Captain Cupcake (seen far left) never got the attention that he deserved, it was always about Twinkie the Kid...Twinkie this, Twinkie that. So he get the rest of the gang involved..pulls them in one by one. First he grabs Chauncey the Ho-Ho. Its a no brainer Chauncey would go against Twinkie the kid, they've had many issues in the past. First there was that time back in 58', when Twinkie stole his girlfriend on the set of a new commercial. Than there was their heated exchange when Chauncey blamed his diminished Ho-Ho sales in 87' because of the color of his cake. Than there is Fruit Pie, the Magician. Even through all of this skill in magic, Fruit Pie could never gain the attention of the consumer...maybe it was his products needs for an acquired taste...or his well known magic trick to make his unidentified filling stick to the roof of your mouth and/or favorite shirt. Or it could have been when the "Magician" was caught in the act in one of the back rooms of the bakery freezer with TWO of the male Donettes Penguins! (for the record, i have no issues at all with same-cake relations, what these snacks do on their personal time is their business) Anyway, ALL of these factors all lead me to believe that there could be an internal power struggle and that Captain Cupcake is at the bottom of it. Corporate embezzling? maybe. Cake envy? definitely. I'm going to keep an eye out for this one, because these secrets can't be kept for ever, and the truth WILL come out when this whole thing Sno-Balls...snack on that my friends.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace in 3-D, Feb. 10th 2012



I know this post is a little late, but with all of the hype surrounding France's own Darth Vader Burger, I couldn't pass up this opportunity to relish in my excitement for this movie to come to the 3-D format. Since its initial relase, I have always wondered what it would be like to witness an epic Pod Race in 3-D, balls deep in a large bag of popcorn. This format change can only help this movie, and for once i dont feel like the whole 3-D concept is being pointlessly shoved down my throat. Now, Ill be forced to wait for my other wish of having JarJar be killed off immediately in the second scene, since along with EVERY STAR WARS FAN, I hate that floppy-eared fuck. Well, atleast Lucas left that static-character's ass off of the Official Poster and made Darth Maul the focal point (Finally George, your getting it) Feb 10th. Mark your calenders.

Gadget Review: Retrode Gaming Adapter



Well this product is plain genius. Im sure if you grew up in the 90's, you have accumulated numerous video games/controllers from different systems such as Super Nintendo (SNES) and Sega Genesis. Well all you need is this nifty product to simply plug and play on your home computer, laptop, etc, for "Driverless operation on any USB host, under any OS, using any emulator". Holy Classic Cartridges Batman.
      So if you dont still have your collection, hit your nearest comicbook store, Salvation Army, Pawn Shop, GameStop and grab a few oldies! This is finally the answer to the age old question of "how the fuck can i play Maximum Carnage on my laptop?!" Well worth the money in my own opinion, because who wouldn't want to beat the shells out of a co-worker in Mario Kart on their lunch break?

"New Lost F'd-Up World of Sea Creatures"




You can File this directly under "Shit I Wouldn't Touch With a Ten-Foot Pole". First of all, i'd never go anywhere known as an "Abyss". Even if it was a Strip Club. (*note to self: "Abyss" would be a terrific name for a Strip Club being they are mostly dark, creepy, and full of stickyness). Researchers have found a new " Lost World" deep in the Southern Ocean, with tons a creepy shit with names like "Yeti Crab" a.k.a. "The Dont Fuck with Me Crab", b.k.a. "Deadliest Catch, My Ass!" and an unknown type of Octopus , which that fact alone should scare the shit out of you. Courtesy of http://earthsky.org/

UPDATE 1/6/12: Scientists have now renamed the Yetti Crab, to "The Hoff" crab..after their odd, hairy chest, apparently resembling David Hasselhoff's in the hit show "BayWatch". I just thought it was because the crabs used Canned-Tan while eating cheeseburgers shitfaced on the ocean floor, but who knows.

Orange ya' glad we didn't say move??





Not a good day for Obie, the Orange Bowl's Mascot. You can blame Darwin when it comes to Obie's grotesque arms protruding from his fuzzy skin, but it's West Virginia's own Dawrin Cook ,who managed to trample the randomly crowned mascot (well, he is a royal pain in the ass) in a post-TD celebration. Watch the video below courtesy of www.Yardbarker.com
