Camera in the mail.
I purchased a Pentax K-7, and I’m now facing my preliminary insecurities about it. Should I have gotten the Nikon D90?
Hey you, lawyer people
Please stop sueing Sony for stuff they didn’t do. Please start sueing Microsoft because they suck. kthxbye
In other news, Amazon/shippin co. failed to follow through for release-date delivery- especially silly considering that retail shops were given the go-ahead to break the the release date a couple days early (in response to smaller retailers breaking the date sans permission).
Product Reviews: Walmart Caskets
Ok, so after hearing about Walmart selling caskets a number of times in the past week, I decided to click on a link and see what this was about.
While it is really not that strange for me to learn that Walmart sells caskets, I noticed that there were links to “Read reviews” and “write a review” on the product page.
Here are a couple of the reviews:
Pretty nice casket, 10/28/2009
I picked one up to bury my cat in. Other than having room for about 100 cats, it worked well. Oh, had to dig a really big hole too, and that was rough on my back. But at least when my dog dies I can just open ‘er up again and stick him in too.and another
perfect fit!, 10/28/2009
I love it! It is the perfect fit for me. There is enough room to roll over and to lay on my stomach. It feels very spacious and roomy even though I’m 6 feet under.
Nice find!
Save money. Live better. Die.
A perfect day

Oo. Sumang-ayon ako sa sinabi nila. ಠ_ಠ
I like how the Japan today picture is subtly an exterior picture of a host club.
shit sucks
This seems to be the full version of a previous post. Again, note Rashomon’s presence in “Japan Then”. It proves that things used to be awesome.
Verizon’s new ad: iDon’t.
Well, now it’s definite: there won’t be a Verizon iPhone for a long time, if ever. Verizon is clearly investing heavily in Android instead, presumably because they can exert much more control over the software and devices for their own promotional, branding, and add-on revenue priorities.
Indeed, nothing has changed at Verizon.
I’m interested to see how much more “open” their Droid™ devices are than the iPhone. Verizon’s known for being open, permissive, and developer-friendly, right?
Interestingly enough, I thought this was a movie commercial at first. A spin-off of the I Robot concept. Hey, this device looks wonderful and safe. Oh no, its a Droid (evil robot) trying to take over humanity (the gritty tone at the end is mostly responsible for this interpretation). I know, it doesn’t quite make sense, but neither does the ad.

TRANSFORMERS 2
This is one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. And I’ve spent the past year watching some seriously bad films.
This movie isn’t just bad, it’s bloated. It’s offensive. It’s slow! It’s two and a half hours long! It’s convoluted and nonsensical.
I need to buy a new thesaurus just to properly describe how bad this film is.
{shakes head} Just…wow. It’s not just the paltry script. It’s not just the super-serious music and lame acting. It’s…look, Tyrese is in it, and HE’S NOT EVEN THE WORST PART.
Oh, and did I mention it’s racist? That there are two obviously ghetto (ebonics-spewing, gold tooth-wearing) autobots who spend 90% of their screen time arguing and bumbling through their scenes? And that at one point they even call Bumblebee “nigga”? Yeah, because that happens. 1:42:21.
I highly recommend you avoid this film at all costs. Nothing excuses its creation. It’s not a movie for kids. There’s death and the aforementioned racial epithet. There’s also some weird scene where Shia Lebeouf dies and speaks to Transformers ghosts, who tell him to go back to his dead body and save some other Transformers. And that? That there is some nonsense kids don’t need to see.
“Hey kid! Heaven’s real, and it’s filled with some spooky glowing robots!!!”
Oy gevalt. Such a bad movie.
AND. And they kill Optimus Prime. AGAIN. That guy just can’t catch a break. Died in the comic books a few times, on the tv shows several times, the cartoon movie, and now this. It’s the Transformers universe’s go-to tragedy.
Did I ruin the movie for you by giving away that spoiler? Good. Now you don’t have to see it.
Still want to see it? Okay, John Turturro shows up. As does the guy who plays Dwight in The Office. And they’re both comic relief. The bad guys use Shia’s parents as bait. Megatron has a bigger boss, The Fallen, and he’s related to Optimus Prime. And there’s a weapon in a pyramid that can destroy the sun to make energy for Transformers. And Optimus uses the parts from a dead robot to get all suped-up so that he can RIP THE FACE OFF OF THE MAIN BAD GUY.
And the whole world knows about Transformers, now. Yeah, somehow they were able to hide the fact that giant transforming robots exist for 1.5 movies.
How about now? still want to see it? If you do, email me. I’ll just keep going until you promise to NEVER EVER WATCH THIS FILM.
GRADE: D- (avoids an F because there’s exactly 1 scene in the entire movie that’s good, where Optimus Prime uses his sword to fuck up a bunch of bad guys. RIGHT BEFORE HE DIES LIKE A BITCH)
Agreed. Transformers: ROTF is an insult to bad movies. What disturbs me most about the movie is that a sequel is planned.
According to wikipedia [citation needed?], it grossed about 800 million.](http://12.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_krsjnzmSgO1qzn4dko1_500.jpg)
