I am as huge fanboi of Giada’s as any warm blooded male is, but… I am finding it difficult to pay attention to what is being made. The cynic in me knows that this ploy by The Food Network is intentional, but does that not take away from her craft? The clothes she wears are sometimes… revealing (I would never suggest that they should dress her like a nun) but it isn’t enough that she is a strikingly beautiful woman, she is built like a brickhouse (for you non-cool folks, it means that she is sexy as all hell). There have been more than a few haters to complain about her bosom (mostly housewives with no figure) so her wardrobe has been changed… it didn’t help. Being a foody wannabe chef myself, I typically watch TFN to get quick tips on meals, learn a bit more about the culture of certain dishes and well now I guess… [Read more]

Let’s be honest, the ritual of the New Year’s resolution is one of lies, deciept and all around bullsh-t. We do it so that we can tell people in hopes of getting their acknowledgement at the idea of you bettering yourself. Innately we are all selfish creatures so we don’t care what everyone’s New Year’s resolution is, we just want to proclaim ours.  If I am sick of hearing people lying about losing weight or making money, I know you all are too, so why join in on this madness? For this reason I have stopped making them. The most popular resolution of all is the “getting in shape” cliche. Oh boy. Here’s the thing… and you have heard it a million times and shrugged it off. 8 minute abs don’t work, buying a treadmill to have it collect dust in your basement does not work, and paying a guy $60 a month to train you… [Read more]

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4 Where do they come up with this stuff, it’s always catchy, funny as hell and well shot (no pun intended). First was the Dick in a Box music video and now we get the memfastic Jizz in My Pants. By now whatever message board, online chat, or video game that you post your comments to has probably graced you with the “That was so funny that I Jizzed in my pants” rhetoric but if you were clueless as to why, this video is the answer. I’m not sure which one is my favorite anymore… the Natalie Portman gangsta rap was king before this video, now I have doubts having watched this thing no less than 20 times. It’s just the facial expressions and Timberlake looking disappointed at the “we’re going to need a clean up on aisle 3″ line… Plus Jamie-Lynn Sigler is in this one, looking cute as ever. Anyway, it’s just funny as… [Read more]

So before I start let me get the boring cliché remarks and thoughts that you people will spout out prior to even linking to the main article. The introverted nerdy ones of you will think to yourself “cool, I hope this gets sophisticated enough that I can have my own slavegirl modelled after Kristen Bell to play with.” The wannabe tough guy poser types will say “lol look the nerd had to make a girlfriend! I trip over ass everytime I leave my house, what’s his deal?” and a few of you standard model humans will say “WTF?”  Anyway, Japanese inventor Le Trung has created a young woman who does math and exhibits artificial intelligence. Along with math, Le also says she can be tweaked to have orgasms and respond to your nerdy thrusts the way a real woman might… more on that later. With the sophisticated knowledge needed to create a real femme bot… [Read more]

You know i’m hardly an advocate for cliche sayings but there is something to be said about “be a father to your child”. How sad is it that in this great country we are still struggling with this. Abandoned children – the sad collateral damage in the war of the sexes. It may be okay to hate a bitch but why avoid your seed in the midst of hating on her? That being said, it makes me smile when I see the ads from fatherhood.gov. The ads always have a normal guy doing something completely out of the norm… for instance one had a guy dancing in front of the television to a really girly song. This one depicts a father doing a cheer… but pan out and you will see he is actually playing with his daughter. Giving her a little attention that may seem corny to everyone else but will do wonders for… [Read more]

Designers… please for the love of God pick up a business book before you go out and aggressively pursue freelancing. It is becoming too commonplace to hear about clients screwing Designers out of work and only a few take it to court or change their methods. As I have stated before in many posts, being right-brained does not have to be synonymous with peaceful, weak and easy. That being said, if you are new to freelancing, or being an entrepreneur in the field of design, here are a few things to keep in mind before starting: You are seen as an artist I am a natural born artist (could always draw and paint anything), I am a schooled Graphic Designer (4 years BS Degree), and I have 10+ years of professional experience. I still take being called an artist by any client as an insult. It’s the weight that comes with that title, and the… [Read more]

Everyone loves a hookup, except those of us who have had bad ones. Though in theory, the hook-up is a great dating tool. You get a chance to look at the guy or girl (if it isn’t a blind date) and the ice is already broken since you both share a friend. There is also the ease in getting her number, getting a first date, and hopefully getting some action. What gets forgotten though, is the hard feelings if things don’t go so well. You may shrug this off as whatever happens, happens, but what if the hookup is from a close friend and that person is his/her cousin, best friend, or ex? I’ll tell you what happens, the person who hooked you up will get an earful of stories about how much of a jackass you are, and are prone to believe it since their relationship with the girl is stronger than yours. It’s a conflict… [Read more]

Janelle Monáe, Girl from Another Planet Open your minds, earthlings, and prepare to be launched headfirst into an alternate universe. A place where robots fall in love with humans. Where your tour guide into this alternate realm is a demure lil thang with a bold set of pipes. “I’m an alien from outer space,” declares Janelle Monáe on the first song of her debut album, Metropolis: The Chase Suite (Special Edition). Yes, Toto, we are no longer in Kansas anymore. Or even planet Earth. – Taken from www.jmonae.com. As you all know, the Hall of The Black Dragon is all about originality, sexiness and space-aged things. So how surprised was I to be flipping through the channels and there on BET (yes the stereotypical abortion of a music channel) and seeing a small woman in saddle shoes doing a wicked moon walk in a futuristic setting.  Checking to make sure I wasn’t on VH1 or… [Read more]
