The people below us and their neighbors are the epitome of what can go wrong in a courtyard apartment complex setup. They drink, get all their friends over, and want to enjoy the summer nights outside so that’s where they fucking talk. But do they not realize that they’re voices echo off all these buildings? How is it possible no one else complains about this? They do not show one ounce of restraint.

They talk about nothing. Their conversations consist of talking themselves up in fights, letting someone know what a tough motherfucker they are, or how much of a bitch some chick is. It’s the same shit over and over again. Then they’ll get this guy over that will mumble-rap his way through 10 minutes of duplicitous speech and moronic prose of how tough of a motherfucker he is.

How do you deal with ruckus neighbors in a close proximity apartment complex like this? I go outside and, as politely and as firmly as I can, let them know they are being loud and they are one floor under the window where we sleep. They’ll make an attempt after this for 5 minutes, then the drunk guy that’s coming back from the shitter will walk out and start talking loudly again, which gets everyone else to talk loud, then they’ll all forget that I even asked them to be quiet.

And some of these people have children. How the hell are they not staying up all night listening to their drunk ass single parent fucking off with people? It’s beyond me.

Going to the landlord is a lowly douchey thing to do, and to me doesn’t seem like gets anything done other then makes you look like a passive dolt. It’s doubtful they have much of a warning system here.

I find contempt in getting shallow messages from hipsters that can only seem to backup warmongering claims with a flashy video edited together with Gladiator music. The sad truth behind their cause is that’s it’s regarding things that have always happened, across mankind for thousands of years. What they are suggesting, however, the US to do is to begin meddling in foreign countries’ affairs. Oh boy. Sure it seems justified now, but where should it end? We’re already mohawk deep in the middle east- atleast we have a cock in that fight.

But with what’s required here would open up a rather dubious precedent afterward. Are we going to be expected upon to do the same with countless other countries accused of similar atrocities? Are we going to be known as a country who has a bunch of easily influenced poorly educated teenagers and young adults demanding congress send money and troops to countries who are ran by governments that are just as corrupt as the groups performing these atrocities?

Most of the people I see talking about this on Facebook I’m almost positive couldn’t even point out Uganda on a map. It’s a flavor of the day and will most likely depart on the short-attention-span-bus any time now.

I still feel good about where it’s going though. It’s something that needs to have backflips done for from somebody in the world. But how it came about I can’t help but feel a small gradient of attribution for- which makes me feel great. In the end, I enjoy have having 2% odds of worth in the matter and it actually resulting in a basis of direction. Those are pretty dim numbers, you might say, for something that required, essentially, a decade of my personal life. Task is a very loose term in the way that I gave it my all for three years- it went completely comatose for 5 years or so, and now suddenly it’s a reality.

What’s funny is that I never heard the end of it even whilst it was inactive. Destined screenplay writers, aspiring actors, die hard fans are who I heard from in a time where it seemed like I was the only one that would listen.

-review the stick flick ‘tree of life’ as if it were watched on a black and white 13″ panasonic tele

-attempt to quit smoking through means of smoking

-wonder what the fuck is going on in my VT class, and  wonder how many CIT/VT majors would know how to even plug in a keyboard cord into a computer if needed

-write an email to the math sector of my college’s vector unit and let them know that forgetting about math credits from seasoned students (transfer credits) and making them take bonafide bad math courses of their own really puts a bone in my stew

-continue resisting the urge to tell everyone on facebook that they’re all fucking idiots, including the group of people that keep trying to add me with their unfunny josh accounts. you people suck

-deal with customers at my job. oh my god, this one is the fucking worst

Honestly I made this post simply because I was tired of seeing that weird chicks mug on my PC whenever Chrome opened. Forgot her name, but I’ll remember next time to conveniently misplace stupid images out of the article whenever I feel the urge to apply media

 gulliver’s travels

This was the least offensive of the two, but I expected more. My girlfriend had wanted to watch it and based on the premise of tales from some old guy like a thousand years ago, I’d figured it’d at least be charming. But sadly, that’s not the case. First off, one of the female leads is Amanda Peet, who ranks on my top 1 actresses to putrify a film. Alas, I know very little about the original stories of Gulliver, but my gut instinct tells me that when coming across the idea of recreating one of the tales for modern day cinema and adding Jack Black as the subject, that there’s probably very little honor to the source material.

The movie is tailored for PG audiences- but in this case we have a striking lack of substance in plot and character development and an overload of iffy digital effects. Did everyone know Jack Black sings and dances like a buffoon? I’d suggest only watching this movie if you are looking to freak autistic children out.

macgruber

I’m not sure where the hell this idea for a movie came from, but the SNL people who made it should be sued over and over again.  MacGruber is supposed to be a MacGyver spoof character on the same plain as the Old Spice Guy, and countless other ‘super badass commercial characters saying awesome things’ types. The problem with MacGruber is that he isn’t funny at all. He isn’t even of those characters that comes off as funny because he’s a douchebag. He doesn’t even come across as a douchebag. He’s just unfunny. What the hell is Ryan Phillipe doing in this movie, anyways? How do you go from Traffic to sticking a chute of celery up your ass in MacGruber? The only thing that made me laugh about this movie was how fat Val Kilmer is now.

It’s no secret why the events that unfolded in 1969 rural Texas involving a runaway couple en route to extract their child from a foster home, taking the quiet police state by storm, was seen as a moment of opportunity by Spielberg. However, in actuality, the real-life event lasted only a few hours. This means no overnight scene in the Winnebago, no budding partnerships with the trooper turned hostage, and no gun fights with vigilant city men. A great deal of fudging the reality in Spielberg’s vision indeed. This raises questions in regards to the necessity of showcasing an exaggeration of events in the name of Hollywood success in lieu of offering a faithful auteur perspective of the event. But without such liberties taken, there most likely would not be a film at all.

Another instance of shady story-to-screen reenactment falls on how the Texas State Troopers are portrayed throughout. From the beginning, the deplorable processing of law enforcement allows for the progression of the couple across the state in a stolen cruiser- and a police body count that follows them that would make Michael Bay stutter. The repeated bonehead mistakes by the hands of the troopers leads to action sequences that’s a akin to a toddler tossing his hot wheels around without regard. “No one will get killed on my watch,” says the Captain- destruction of property through car chases and gun play achieve another level of treatment however. The Governor may have quietly screamed in his head after seeing the bottom line red of destruction here.

But then what do you have without all the slick eye candy? Goldie Hawn convinces well as the young albeit dimwit mother, quick with a venom tongue throughout. But there is a layer of cultural context and emotions that are ignored and might offer an interesting dramatic element to the movie. Who knows, maybe showing a legal struggle of acquiring the child (before prison breaks and abductions run wild) would tune the audiences right about the whole situation, and offer a more believable experience.

Spielberg’s catalogue of films, later on through the decades, does offer forms of the auteur directing method that began, perhaps, as a seed of promise in TSLE (Schindler’s List, Saving Private Ryan). This conclusion shows that the eclectic and entertainment style of Spielberg went the right direction here with his first theatrical foray.

Our judges said the unifying elements of all three young women were their intellectual curiosity, their tenaciousness and their ambition to use science to find solutions to big problems. They examined complex problems and found both simple solutions that can be implemented by the general public—like changing your cooking habits or removing toxins from your home—as well as more complex solutions that can be addressed in labs by doctors and researchers, such as Shree’s groundbreaking discovery, which could have wider implications for cancer research.

The one demonstration, however, that went by the wayside involved an individual dressed in a V For Vendetta mask flashing posters to onlookers that walked by that guessed weight, age, and interests and issuing them ads to various local businesses. To each passer-by’s response, a [mostly] negative or positive reaction was recorded for scientific study. Incidentally, local gym membership sign ups spiked for the week. Public relations for Google and Google Adsense issued no comment.

The new music initiative, entitled Xbox Music, will launch with over 11 million songs available, but it’s not clear exactly how users will access the content, or what pricing will be connected to accessing/buying the songs. The announcement comes via a Steve Ballmer talk at the recent Microsoft Partner Conference.

Nevermind the smack in the face to whatever shred of Zune userbase remains, this should finally tip the consumers into shelling out $150 for an upgraded file storage for their systems [nope]. In the mean time, Soulseek NS networks with my system rather well.

Additionally, the XBL TV Network claims to offer your dashboard with ESPN channels and BBC offshoot networks that only seem relevant in third world countries. At this point, MS seems to just want to chide their gamers into leaving their systems on 24/7, which bodes nicely with their history for manufacturing consoles that tend to have a working lifespan of only a few years.

The login box to the game realms have been changed to a soundboard of Martin Lawrence from the 2001 comedy, Blue Streak.
