Before you get up in my face with the name-calling and chauvinist comments, I’m in no way saying that women don’t enjoy danger and nearly killing themselves doing stupidly awesome things. I do know that there is some primal part of me that gets excited thinking about jumping off of stuff and blowing things up.…
T..G..I..Your Mom!
I know. Real mature, right? Well, bite me. I’m not in a mature mood this morning. I got to sleep some last night, which was nice. It’s hard to choose between sleep and hanging out and having fun, sometimes. But eventually, your body will take over and demand that you sleep. So, thank goodness for…
My Weekend Update
So this past weekend went pretty well. Friday, I went to see Asheville band Dawn of the Dude, and it was a pretty entertaining show! It’s always awesome to see a good band that also has good showmanship. It’s one thing to be a good musician and a good artist, but it’s another talent altogether…
A Word on Shout-Outs
A “Shout-Out,” according to UrbanDictonary.com, is: 1. A message to friends, family, etc. lodged on a radio station, web site, or other popular medium. 2. An inane activity chowing up airwaves, electricity, and bandwidth. You’ve heard them before. Some douche bag gets fifteen seconds of fame on the television or radio, and the first thing…
Sexy Geek Toys: Apple Macbook Air Ad
So, even though I’m only mildly impressed with the specs and it seems more gimmick than gadget, the Macbook Air which Apple announced at MacWorld Expo 2008 last week just looks incredibly sexy (in a geeky sort of way). I didn’t quite have a way to wrap my mind around its thinness before seeing the…
They Say It’s Your Birthday
That’s right, folks. The Raging Tech (the person, not the blog) has survived a quarter of a century of living on this planet. It’s crazy! Just last year I was working at a job I sort of enjoyed for a boss I definitely didn’t. I didn’t have insurance. I didn’t have a plan. A year…
Biological Evidence LOLCats Control Your Mind
Sci-fi website io9.com has a great article on why those cute and funny LOLCats images (pictures of kittens, cats, or other animals with funny, grammatically incorrect, and anthropomorphizing captions written on them) are so darn distracting from your real day job. If you are new to LOLCats, I would of course recommend one of the…
Snowed In? Slack Out with Your Mac Out
With wintry weather upon us, a lot of people are unable to even leave their houses today. We’re fortunate enough to have light snowfall today and the roads aren’t bad. My roommate picked up Family Guy: Blue Harvest and my Netflix movies came in: Mystery Science Theater 3000 – the episode where they watch Mitchell…
The Point Blank Critic
My friend just recently decided to start his own review blog called The Point Blank Critic. He’s really into trying new kinds of beer, Apple (Mac) computers and products, music, movies, video games, and technology in general. He also happens to be a pretty good cook, and one of my best friends. These last two…
Free Rental Promo Codes for Red Box Movies
A couple days ago, I wrote about getting a free rental from a Red Box movie rental machine using a promo code I got when I signed up and gave them my e-mail. Those codes can be used once per credit card, so if you had a credit card and say, a check card with…
