Mike T: Sad fact #1 - for all my talk and blogging about eating better, and cooking good food... dinner last night? Cheddar brats with mac and cheese. Sweet, sweet decadence.
Mike T: Sad fact #2 - Dinner tonight was awesome. Relaxing now with a cup of vanilla almond black tea. What am I craving? An entire damn chocolate cake with a thick, thick layer of frosting. Or maybe just a tub of chocolate frosting.
Mike T: (If it weren't for the enormous meatsicle, I'd swear I was about to have my period.)
Mike T: (Okay, that was a bit too far. I'm just sayin'.)
Ernie: ...
Increased Milk Production →
Or, “how the Castro neighborhood looks different now that Milk has started filming this week.” Also, vote Sean Penn for City Supervisor!
Royce: btw, WORST webpage for a gay bar EVER
Royce: http://www.chain-drive.com/index.html
Ernie: holy shit, am i at the site for a gay bar or a chiropractic office?
Royce: RIGHT!
Rainbow Nation? - a documentary on gay asian male stereotypes. (I sure don’t think I’m waifish. And for the record, I want to punch the guy at the :11 mark in the throat.)
It’s really strange to be in a movie that is going to probably be a very...
– TJ Miller, AKA “the actor who holds the camera in Cloverfield.” (Total amount of actual screentime he gets? Approximately two and a half minutes, apparently.)
This is the best Photoshop tutorial ever. (Watch this even if you don’t know a lick of Photoshop. It’ll be worth it.)
Losing the "personal"
I know a lot of people make fun of personal bloggers because they talk too much about themselves. Like, who would really want to know about your family, or what you had for dinner. Blog entries about personal struggles or personal successes are sometimes mocked as being too navel-gazing and narcissistic. Well you know what? I am beginning to dislike personal blogs that DON’T have these...
Rainbows and Unicorns and the Tech Echo Chamber →
I never did blog about my post on Yahoo! Next*, did I? Well, here it is.
Amusing Myself To Death : on Cloverfield →
My friend Pk’s take on Cloverfield, which I agree 100% with. A couple spoilers, in that he mentions a couple characters who die. But it’s a horror film so you knew that was going to happen, right? — jaschu
Ernie: how's this for ironic. for 8asians, i am blogging about ASIA CARRERA.
Mike: Is that the legit actress from Wayne's World, or the porn actress?
Ernie: no, the porn actress Asia Carrera.
Mike: Nice. I pray you didn't have to do too much research for this one.
Mike: I wonder how Asia's parents are coping. I mean, the stereotype is that there is strong family pressure to become a high-value career type, like a doctor, lawyer, pianist, etc. How do you go home and say "I let six guys stick their cock in my ass today" to your folks? Maybe it's best to lead in with a Tchaikovsky concerto on the ivories first....
Mike: AAAAH-SIA! Why you sleep with so many men? Why don't you fuck Tommy Li down the street? HE is a plastic surgeon and drives a Lexus. Maybe he can make your breasts smaller, they look like giant bowling balls.
Ernie: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ernie: YOU WIN! I CAN'T BEAT THAT.
Mike: You know, though - Half German, Half Japanese? She really needs to star in "1945: Asses vs. Allies"
San Francisco is just like Second Life →
And… WRONG. The San Francisco tech scene might be like Second Life, but as someone who has grown up in the Bay Area his entire life, any “natives” can tell you that this city and the area surrounded it has its own identity beyond the tech scene. You just have to be pro-active in finding that community. For all of the flaws in this area and for all my moments of escapism...
Working From Home
Royce: how's being home?
Ernie: really chill. actually getting more done here than usual in the office
Royce: that happens to me when i work from home too
Ernie: which begs the question, why don't we ALWAYS work from home
Royce: cause watching Tyra at the same time you're sending an email to the VP makes you use the word "like" too many times
