No it’s not the highly anticipated sequel unveiled at Comic-Con this weekend. It’s a hilarious new web series by Ben Hansford about an older but not necessarily wiser Tron. The episodes, which average about a minute in length, reveal what life’s really like inside of a computer: boring! It’s exponentially better than the original and I think you’ll agree after watching it that Tron needs no reboot. Watch the first
Whenever I need to find old/rare anime (unlicensed of course) I head over to Boxtorrents.com, but last weekend I was shocked to find the website was gone! Not just down for maintenance but completely vanished with only a placeholder declaring the domain was for sale by owner. Even if you weren’t a member, this affects you! If you’ve ever downloaded manga, anime, j-pop, or any live action Asian show from
Debuting at AVN’s Adult Entertainment Expo, Realtouch is an artificial vagina that simulates various porn stars, including newcomer Amy Fisher so your wife is completely safe (can’t win ‘em all). The device, which was supposedly developed by a NASA engineer, connects to your computer and synchronizes its movements to mimic movies from the site’s Video-On-Demand library. It comes with 30 minutes free, but after that it’s $1 a minute (gives
Parents are crying foul over an iPhone app called Baby Shaker. The aptly named game challenges (ab)users to “See how long you can endure his or her adorable cries before you just have to find a way to quiet the baby down!” And the only way to silence these little angels (god willing) is to vigorously shake them until adorable red Xs cover their eyes… ‘awww who’s a dead baby,
Some economists think the recession could be over in months, but the government isn’t counting on it. In anticipation of mass suicides, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has launched a new website for “Getting Through Tough Economic Times” (samhsa.gov/economy). “The guide is a quick and easy tool that people can use to better manage their emotional well-being. By helping people remain resilient, we can help promote
Let’s face it, praying for your immortal soul is a major inconvenience. If only there was a way to pay someone (or something) to pray for you. Well say halo to the Information Age Prayer (informationageprayer.com). For just $3.95 per month this sacrilegious site will say your prayers for you using “state of the art text-to-speech synthesizers to voice each prayer at a volume and speed equivalent to typical person
Every month millions of men are held hostage in their own homes by a biological attack known as PMS. And god help you if you incorrectly profile a woman as having it. Tired of living in constant fear of these hormonal terrorists, Jordan Eisenberg created an early warning system called PMS Buddy (pmsbuddy.com). It’s a website that tracks PMS, allowing you to make a preemptive strike. Eisenberg suggests flowers, which
Barack Obama is known for being well-spoken, at least when his teleprompter is working. Without it he’s like a deer in headlights, stuttering and seemingly lost in thought. But apparently even with the teleprompter he has trouble. At a St. Patrick’s Day celebration at the White House, President Obama mistakenly read the Irish Prime Minister’s speech, opening with “First, I’d like to say thank you to President Obama.” He actually
The #1 internet superhero musical of 2008 is finally out on DVD! No not Prop 8 – The Musical (gay is not a superpower). It’s Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, of course. In what’s gotta be the best origin story ever, it documents Dr. Horrible’s (Neil Patrick Harris) rivalry with the self-absorbed hero Captain Hammer (Nathan Fillion) for the affections of Penny (Felicia Day), which ultimately spurs Dr. Horrible into joining
Talk about crying over spilt milk. Stephanie Knapp Muir created a facebook group called “Hey, Facebook, breastfeeding is not obscene!” in response to the site deleting her photos. The group, which currently has over 130,000 members (or 260,000 boobies) defends breastfeeding, arguing it’s perfectly natural. However many natural things like nudism and urinating are generally frowned upon in public areas. These feminazis castrated a facebook user (no not me) who
When Michael Rosenbaum (AKA Lex Luthor) left Smallville last year it was supposedly to go on to bigger and better things. Instead, we find him playing an extremely disturbed Charlie Brown in “A Very Peanus Christmas,” the latest (and not the best) episode of PG Porn. While it does follow the established formula of boy meets girl, boy falls for girl, boy kills girl; it plays less like a porn
Discrimination may not have existed in Gene Roddenberry’s idyllic vision of the 23rd century, but it did in the 80s. A controversial episode deemed “too gay” to air is finally coming out. “Blood and Fire”, which was originally written for Star Trek: The Next Generation, has been adapted for the web series Star Trek: New Voyages. In it Kirk’s gay nephew asks the captain to marry him but the honeymoon
Meet “Snarley Monster” – the world’s first Goth kitten (picture left). You won’t find him on one of those inspirational “hang in there” posters, cause it’s not the two 14-gauge ear piercings or the Captive Bead Ring (CBR) through the back of the neck that are weighing him down. It’s society man… it’s society. But apparently expressing yourself is illegal. The conformers at the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
The Conchords are back and their manager has great news for the band, too bad it’s the wrong band. It’s the kind of awkwardness that not even an impromptu song can undo. Tired of playing second fiddle to “The Crazy Dogs,” Jemaine and Bret decided to manage themselves. Hilarity ensues? While the duo are as funny as ever, their signature songs fall flat. Admittedly season 2 was a bit rushed
Let’s face it, nobody wraps gifts anymore. They all come neatly pre-wrapped from the store. But now you can show that special someone that you cared enough to wrap it yourself (or at least look that way). The screwballs over at Firebox.com are offering crapwrap, a “uniquely shoddy gift wrapping option.” Each gift is wrapped by highly unskilled workers to ensure authenticity. But you gotta order by December 19th to
