I just don’t even know where to start with this:



Notice the cholesterol intake for one serving!!! Holy crap!! 1170% of your daily intake?!?!!?!?! That’s a stroke and heart failure packaged conveniently in a single-serving can. Wow! What is wrong with people?! Is this really a necessary food source?! Couldn’t we perhaps do without pork-brains in milk gravy?!

I would also like to point out how appalling I think it is for cholesterol to even have a recommended daily percentage attributed to it!! It’s fucking HORRIBLE for you!!! That’s like assigning a recommended daily intake for plastic or broken glass. Wtf!?

Ya know, I’m a huge non-fan of marketing that directly or by implication trashes the competition. There are ways to poke fun at your competitor with class like Apple’s Mac vs. PC ads, but a lot of companies do some lame stuff in their marketing.

Here’s an example: www.stockthatdoesntsuck.com

Now, if they didn’t have a URL that calls attention to how much they apparently don’t suck (and how much their competitors do suck by implication), you wouldn’t even think twice about them if they did suck (just once), but since they’re being arrogant, it sets the stage for an extra critical eye.

I have to say, based on my use of their website, they do in fact fall into the category of “suck.” Unimpressive search results, and what appears to be a very small stock-photo library based on said results = suck. Their site’s functionality also leaves much to be desired (like some feedback when a search returns no results).

Note to www.stockthatdoesntsuck.com:
Good photography does not necessarily equal good stock-photography.

To end on a happier, lighter, wearing-less-clothing note: Hi! I’m a Wii

Bye Paul Newman, you were fuckin’ rad. :)

HAhaahah!!! HOLY SHIT!!! Quicken is fucking rad!!! Dood?!?! If you haven’t tried it they’re offering a 60 day free trial, and it’s $2.99 a month after that!! I’ve been getting my finances all neat and tidy, and this is just freakin’ awesome!! It even shows you a pie-chart (based on credit card and debit card transactions) of the different things you’re spending your money on by category (e.g. Auto, Entertainment, Groceries, Etc.).

What an incredibly strange night.

1) Dave Foley lives in the apartment building directly across the street from me.
2) He lives RIGHT next door to the apartment that I almost got instead of the one I’m in.
3) We ran into him as we were leaving the bar that’s right across the street from our apartment buildings (Michi, one of our friends who was with us knows him it turns out).
4) Cyrus, Michi and Dave got jay-walking tickets walking from said bar that is 200 feet from our apartments.

I think that’s the first celebrity I’ve ever met that I was actually totally stoked to meet.

Go into the “Retouching > Retouch - Case Studies” section and tinker with the Stages Slider. Totally awesome.

Be sure to tinker around and explore. I recommend going into the “You’ve Never Seen Anything Like It” portal.
