What I said yesterday:

  • 07:06 @savagechickens What about Polysics's "Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto?" It's more rockin' than both! tinyurl.com/ytyqdc Also, jerk-bot! :D #
  • 07:17 @wardrox "I have seen the gifs." Ah HAH AH! Nice. #
  • 08:40 Two cupcakes and a doughnut. Coffee with Maddow and Grammar Girl, then an iPod full of selected greats. Work, but calm. Friday = finally. #
  • 08:45 @BillCorbett I totally elbowed that Morton's Salt girl in the face. Try tossing some of THAT over your shoulder. #
  • 08:59 @shnjhnsn Ha ha...I can see it now...a majestic, tear filled speech with bagpipes, the casket jettisoned, then BAM! It hits the pavement. #
  • 09:00 Yay, FSM on Maddow. :D #
  • 09:15 @wardrox AHHH! HAHA! Beautiful. #
  • 09:39 RT @Karasu_anesan: LOLs: www.elwp.com/Joe%20Cocker.html #
  • 09:47 Daytum 1.0 Grammar Girl: zacbentz added 1.0 Grammar Girl to "Podcasts Listened To" tinyurl.com/dk39q5 #
  • 09:47 @gonolius Ug, haven't done ours yet 'cause I had, like, a million jobs last year, including some freelance stuff. Yuck. #
  • 09:53 Seriously. They Might Be Giants. "Fingertips." Shouldn't they just do an entire album of, like, 99 of those? BRING IT ON. #
  • 12:01 @leighalexander The entire Randy Newman discography. #
  • 12:05 "Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream." (cups hand up to ear...) #
  • 12:18 I need more Dykehouse. (Not what you think.) He seems to have dropped off the map. #
  • 13:54 RT @hodgman: "And yes: I am on Galactica tonight." Squee! THAT IS ALL. #
  • 13:55 @nickchester Tell him that his Yo Gabba Gabba stuff is GOLDEN. #
  • 14:14 Man, going from The Chemical Brothers' "Block Rockin' Beats" to Metallica's "One" is...odd. #
  • 14:28 @hodgman It's like Mac v Microsoft, only in space. I expect a Commodore come-back-from-behind twist. #
  • 14:32 My iPod set to shuffle is like that loopy brainwashing Clockwork Orange-esque thing from Lost set to eleven. #
  • 14:43 @krupinski Nice! I highly recommend the book if you haven't read it yet. Way better than the movie. Lots more action and angst and killing. #
  • 14:46 Zoe Keating's "Frozen Angels" is aptly titled. De De Mouse's "Raven"is fantastic. Tyr's "St‡risvølurin" makes me wish I were a viking. #
  • 15:37 @savagechickens Yeah, I could watch robots punching children all day. #
  • 16:11 @badbanana I say individually @ it to everyone you don't hear from. #
  • 23:22 Lots of work, dinner, shelving planning and LOTS of Rock Band. Getting back to the Internets now. Glad I didn't miss anyhting! Carry on. #
  • 23:25 Oh, and also, bought some Rush songs. BIG MISTAKE. Really tosses a wrench into the works on random sets. Wish you could exclude tracks... #
  • 23:33 @DustForEyes Oh, sorry, I was talking about in Rock Band. :D Getting random insane drum tracks is painful when you just want to have fun. #
  • 23:47 @shnjhnsn Oh yeah, I really like the songs (SJ2 hates the vocals though,) it's just that on Expert, things can go downhill fast. #
  • 23:49 @shnjhnsn I just wasn't thinking ahead. Getting two Rush songs in a 4 or 5 song mystery set is TEH LAYMZORZ. #

  • 22:03 Well. TMBG won a Grammy? Nice. Also, final Conan appearance this Thursday. I will be asleep! /regurgitated PR email #
  • 22:21 Ouch. Researching a new Japanese band and their older stuff has a gaijin singing. My brain! Whiplash! :D He's not so grat, aktuly. D: #
  • 22:42 @OneGreatTurtle It sounds like Amazon got their ass in gear and got the deluxe version of "...the 123s" back in stock in a hurry. :D #
  • 22:48 @OneGreatTurtle It's one of their children's albums, which are great, but a little tough to really get into, IMO. Still, good news! #
  • 22:49 @badbanana twitpic.com/1fze5 - It's time for some pancakes! #

What I said yesterday:

  • 07:17 @riomccarthy Hmm...OK, thanks. I was just wondering because of the "For those in the know...JERK WAD" at the end. #
  • 07:20 @jakcadden It's a site where you can make various counters for anything you can think to count, from food to mood to fears to anything. #
  • 10:36 At Dr's office, forced to watch horrid daytime TV. Hells upon hells. #
  • 12:30 @duchess_of_pie The problem was that their lame-o flash site never loaded the last couple times I tried. LAME-OH. #
  • 12:32 Back for Dr's. I've been 5'10" 130 for that past bazillion years. Also, sad kitty on Feb calendar was AWESOME. HANG IN THERE SAD CAT! #
  • 12:36 @shnjhnsn For me it was more like 18. #
  • 12:38 @duchess_of_pie And yeah, JERK WAD was my reason for wanting to try it out again. #
  • 13:02 Aw dayum, free Dark Spire OST with launch games? OK, you got me, Atlus. #
  • 13:07 @lwelyk C'mon! Retro AND updated versions, just like the game itself? DOO EET! #
  • 13:12 @duchess_of_pie If Twin Peaks met Lost, Peaks would chuck some rocks at Lost's head, then wrap its fishy corpse in plastic. #
  • 13:13 @duchess_of_pie Peaks would beat Lost to a bloody pulp with a bar of soap in a sock. #
  • 13:14 @duchess_of_pie Peaks would sing Lost a sad song in a falsetto voice while stuffing its throat with poker chips. #
  • 13:23 @colettebennett Sorry for listening in, but yeah, Broken was a world changer for me. Also, Fixed is a audio masterpiece. #
  • 13:25 @colettebennett Also, I skipped school to get The Downward Spiral on day one. In. Cred. A. Bull. #
  • 13:30 @colettebennett Yeah, I was a true NIN fanatic up until that double album thingy. I obsessed over the Halo numbers, bought everything etc... #
  • 13:38 @colettebennett Did you wear long black skirts and combat boots to their live shows too? :D #
  • 13:47 @colettebennett I had thrift store fishnets and six earrings. Also, very very long hair. Oh, and contacts, not glasses. And ANGST. grrrrrrrr #
  • 13:54 @bakatanuki Welcome into the fold! #
  • 13:54 @colettebennett Nah. I burned them and then ate the ashes. #
  • 13:58 @colettebennett :D *coughs up soot* #
  • 14:12 @giapet "like a primary school teacher?" What? Doesn't that mean you DON'T swear? *confused* I've heard either "sailor" or "truck driver." #
  • 14:34 @tiffchow I know! I can NOT wait to get my mitts on it. <3! #
  • 19:49 Four eps in and I still say the new Conchords are a little weak, but the dream song stuff was CRAZY over the top. Nice work. #
  • 20:10 Listening to the new SUTOREITENA album and updating their profile for muh blogz. #

  • 12:24 @Ace0fClub5 ORLY? #
  • 12:38 @badbanana Wait, let me guess which muscle you named "love." #
  • 12:47 @Ace0fClub5 How will we know it's you? Do you wear a funny hat or puke blood or anything? #
  • 13:03 @Ace0fClub5 Cool. Please remind us again, because I will prob...um...what are we talking about? #
  • 14:36 @stephenfry Got a US friendly link? #
  • 14:46 Whoa. Maddow's economic stimulus rant on Friday's show was pretty awesome. Roads and foodstamps for everyone! #
  • 16:12 @shnjhnsn That good huh? #
  • 18:34 @colettebennett Today for lunch I had a sad turkey sandwich and 4 Oreos. Oh, and some water. TAKE THAT, BENNETT! #
  • 20:39 @jakcadden AW DAYM! Sorry. Fixed. #
  • 20:46 @DickMcVengeance The volume mix between music and dialog seems to waver, and the ending needs more of a punch (HA HA), but otherwise NICE. #
  • 21:16 @DickMcVengeance It's not very bad really, but just something I noticed once or twice. #
  • 21:18 Messing around with Daytum. Thanks @tiffchow! daytum.com/zacbentz #
  • 21:24 @shnjhnsn It is in a weird way. You can add anything you can thing of to it. Bit of a learning curve, but fun. #
  • 21:25 @shnjhnsn I'm trying to think of things I can actually maintain without severely impacting my need to get work done... #
  • 21:30 @Karasu_anesan Is red better? Also, you can hover over the stats on the pie chart. #
  • 21:31 Stupid and funny and NSFW language: The Onion covers Sony's new piece of shit: tinyurl.com/acm52y #
  • 21:32 Thanks to @miyagawa for pointing that one out. #
  • 22:46 Anyone remember the Coraline site where you entered in passwords for various makings of? #

What I said yesterday:

  • 00:23 @Karasu_anesan Heroes isn't bad. It's just the acting and the script that are terrible. They have excellent gaffers and grips, obviously. #
  • 00:32 Actually got some things done today. Also, 3 hours of Rock Band with the wife. We are ruling the world, suckers. X-Japan's "IV" can suck it. #
  • 00:35 OK, it's kind of stupid, but Foxtrot's "Fibonachos" gag is also pretty funny. Just when I think I'm free, it pulls me back in. #
  • 00:39 I'm amazed at how busy a few of the Twitter "celebrities" I follow have been today. Shouldn't they be working harder to entertain me? #
  • 00:42 Seriously though, why do they include double kick drum blasts in a game that ships with only one kick pedal? Rage! OK, now bed. #
  • 09:30 @shnjhnsn Are you having a stroke or something? Do I need to call the cops? Only YOU would dream of Jimmy Smits. #
  • 09:44 Sleepy sunbeam: flickr.com/photos/zacbentz/3263615910/sizes/l/ #
  • 10:09 Recently played F.E.A.R. 2 and Resi 5 demos. F.E.A.R. 2 had some really nice stuff. Resi 5 was super lame. #
  • 13:23 @shnjhnsn Makes me long for the days of my Smurf sleeping bag. #
  • 13:28 @shnjhnsn pwned #
  • 13:34 Wow. The new Utada Hikaru single is RETARDED. #
  • 13:34 First off, "one in a million" means there are 6706 people exactly like you. #
  • 13:36 "I wish that I could Photoshop, all our bad memories, 'cause the flashbacks, oh the flashbacks, won't leave me alone." Fucking Christ. #
  • 13:48 @shnjhnsn AH! Paradox! #
  • 14:28 @DickMcVengeance Leave it in the fridge overnight? If you're just going to cook it right away, microwave on defrost for about 10min. #
  • 14:38 @DickMcVengeance Maybe hold it between your thighs and think about Gurren Lagann? Wait, that might burn it to a crisp... #
  • 14:42 @DickMcVengeance @karasu_anesan Grossed out. #
  • 20:10 @shnjhnsn Absolutely awesome. Nothing good ever happens in America. #
  • 20:11 RT @badbanana: Coldplay. Easy listening music that's hard to watch. #
  • 20:14 Went and saw Coraline. I can't wait for the Blu-ray release. For the official record, the wife and I are never going out to a movie again. #
  • 20:15 We really cannot suffer the general public. Are parents now stupider than their snuffling children? Discipline? Anyone? #
  • 20:15 @DickMcVengeance No, we just have to start killing people. #
  • 20:16 @colettebennett Yeah, awful lyrics and just a bad song. Then again, I actively dislike RnB, so I really shouldn't be talking I guess. #
  • 20:19 There was the CONSTANT foot tapper, the CONSTANT nose sniffer, the UP AND DOWN kids, the GASPING and INTERJECTING OUT LOUD mothers. NO MORE. #
  • 20:20 Also, our theater didn't have the 3D version for some reason, and it wasn't NEARLY loud enough. We have a home theater, so why bother? #
  • 20:21 Brruuuuublablalba. OK. That's over with. Time to finish Jtor Radio (yes, for real!) and get on with life. #
  • 20:30 @Ace0fClub5 Nope. Actually have no idea what that is! *Googles* Are you talking about the 21+ thing? Cool, but not 100% safe, like at home. #
  • 20:38 @Ace0fClub5 Sounds great! It really comes down to the fact the we never NEED to see a film right away. Home has all those things. :D #
  • 20:41 @Ace0fClub5 Hey, if I could rent a movie on opening day like I can rent a game on the release day, I'd do it for 2x the price! #
  • 20:50 @Ace0fClub5 Go get 'em! Seriously though, if I could rent a NEW high-def movie on day one for, say, $15, it would be worth it to me. #
  • 20:50 @Ace0fClub5 Though to be honest I/we so very rarely watch movies that it still would be very very little coming from us. =) #
  • 21:13 RT @badbanana: Ringo is at home kindof pissed right now. #
  • 21:19 Holy shit, Radiohead on the Grammys? Sad/cool/confused... #
  • 21:22 Whoa. #
  • 21:57 Oh god, Radiohead vs. Coldplay? *eyeroll* #
  • 22:06 @leighalexander Hey, Radiohead is on! And up for Best Album! That's something, right? Right??? #
  • 22:09 Obama? Obama who? #
  • 22:16 "I'm confused, because whenever I watch 'The Simpsons,' they're very rude about the Grammys," -Jonny Greenwood (Radiohead) AWESOME. #
  • 22:18 "...he conceded that the reality might consist of the band following Coldplay around — "helping them hold theirs." :D #
  • 22:20 @xenijardin Thanks for sharing that AP interview. GREAT stuff! :D #
  • 22:24 WHAT?!!?! #
  • 22:24 Pity award, I take it? #
  • 22:27 RT @badbanana: C'mon, DETHKLOK! #
  • 22:54 8-BIT KRAFTWERK ZOMG WANT: tinyurl.com/c4btdf #
  • 22:57 Better link for the previous spazz out: receptorsmusic.com/shakemusic.html #
  • 23:13 @gonolius Oh, did I not make that abundantly clear? :D #

  • 08:44 Stephen Fry said "crapulent." Just putting that out there. @stephenfry #
  • 08:46 @atheistium "eye lips" Dear god. I think I'd be more worried about the fact you have lips on your eyes than the spots. #

  • 09:54 @Karasu_anesan No, already had that inside. Dunno who it was. Obviously something very important at 8am. #
  • 09:56 New BSG was good. Mmm...shooty. #

What I said yesterday:

  • 07:27 I had a strong urge to shave my eyebrows off in the shower this morning. My severe mental breakdown and kick-ass rock opera are imminent. #
  • 08:48 Actually kind-of sort-of looking forward to re-installing everything on my computer. Also, weeping gently. #
  • 09:19 @shnjhnsn ...and your true love was there, waiting on the other side? SHE DIDN'TGET ON THE BUS AFTERALL! [cue soaring strings] #
  • 09:22 @shnjhnsn Next, you'll watch as an elderly couple rekindles their childhood love affair while running through waves on the beach. #
  • 09:23 @shnjhnsn I am actually LOLing over the thought of you and the dying child. Hilarious. #
  • 09:26 The people around here have amazing powers of knowing exactly when I need to get into the bathroom. Potty precognition? Is that a thing? #
  • 09:38 @shnjhnsn ...and a chimp. #
  • 09:46 @shnjhnsn Yeah. The chimp is the one that talks to Burt and convinces him to hook back up with Fara. Also, blows some hilarious raspberries. #
  • 09:51 @shnjhnsn *highfives* #
  • 10:06 @michaelpinto You're talking about Digging other people's stories and not your own, right? Not that those sites will help Digg YOUR stories? #
  • 10:37 Time to contrast and compare notes from four different versions of this 244 page catalog. Action Zac-tion. #
  • 11:22 YAY! Coraline is showing here! Will we actually be stepping out into the "world" for this? I think so. #
  • 11:56 @duchess_of_pie The only solution is to quit your job. I'm sure you'll get by. #
  • 12:01 @atheistium "...Podcastle is like eavesdropping [on] a conversation between three nerds juiced up on South Park and Dr Pepper." LOL wut? #
  • 12:02 @atheistium Actually kind of sounds like they hate the show. No? Or am I missing something? #
  • 12:04 @atheistium Granted, the long diatribes about foot gore aren't exactly game related. Hilarious, but, well you know. #
  • 12:16 @atheistium Oh yeah, absolutely, and that's why I listen. I don't need people to tell me what to think about video games. #
  • 12:24 @levarburton Wait. WAIT. What's this about you and Mad Men? Am I dreaming? #
  • 12:59 @DaleNorth When I was unemployed for months, I ate far better because I was stuck at home with food. I'd kill to work from home. #
  • 13:02 @paulandstorm Oh yeah?Well, I'm gonna see it ten times AN HOUR. BEAT THAT. #
  • 14:20 RT @BillCorbett: Facebook + Godwin: "25 Random Things about Why You're Just Like HITLER." #
  • 14:22 @duchess_of_pie I haven't watched any of these yet, but apparently Boing Boing went totally crazy over this thing. Remixes etc... #
  • 14:23 @Veronica PICS. #
  • 14:42 @gonolius Dude. You should have said something. We were just out at lunch. Dang. #
  • 15:31 @bakatanuki You should check out RiffTrax. They are still doing it, and yeah, to some very good movies like LOTR. Great stuff! #
  • 16:15 TGIF. I can't wait to go home and...um...do more work? Wait. That can't be right...um... #
  • 19:34 @wilw People who make 3D films HATE people who wear huge and thick glasses. LAME. #
  • 19:52 So you HAVE to see Coraline in 3D? FAIL. TOTAL FAIL. Please tell me this isn't true... T___T #
  • 19:54 @Karasu_anesan OK. But you have to wear my glasses and then try and get the 3D glasses in somehow without everything being all cocked up. #
  • 19:57 @Karasu_anesan OK. #
  • 20:59 @warrenellis Hi Warren. My name is Zac Bentz, millionaire. I own a mansion and a yacht. Also, a corgi, two cats and a wife. Music is nice. #
  • 21:56 Currently installing EVERYTHING, apparently. #
  • 23:36 "He's like a cartoon pilot!" #
  • 23:49 So far, 100% success rate of reinstalling all my stuff. In the meantime, watched a ton of Hulu. All caught up. Now sleep. Tomorrow, WORK. #

What I said yesterday:

  • 07:27 I have risen. Hunting for coffee and/or brains. #
  • 08:04 Standing in a stark hallway waiting for some blood taking. Not my own... #
  • 08:14 Suddenly have a doctors appointment after...way way many years. Oh boy. #
  • 09:09 Would have liked to see @maddow making cocktails on Martha Stewart. Yeah, I'm a fanboy. We geeks must stand together. #
  • 09:14 @giapet Time to play spot the bomber. #
  • 09:38 So far, gone all week only reading Twitter and Twitter links. Internet? What Internet? #
  • 10:03 @BadAstronomer I don't get it. TD never quits on me, either on Mac or PC versions, but often does for my wife (and you, I guess.) WTFudge? #
  • 10:34 @BadAstronomer Shut up and get back to work! :D #
  • 10:42 @Karasu_anesan I should know where that's from. Shouldn't I know where that's from? Why don't I know where that's from? #
  • 10:49 @bakatanuki AH! Thank you for getting that off my brain. Sheesh. #
  • 10:57 OMG. So does that one Coldplay song have a Kraftwerk riff in it? From "Computer Love?" Just sort of put that together...wow. Ick. #
  • 11:16 @bakatanuki Oh, same here, but it was just so out-of-context that I couldn't place it. #
  • 11:24 The Japanese Kraftwerk tribute comp is win. "Radioactivity" with piano, sax and theremin is great. Also, Melt Banana. 'Nuff said. #
  • 12:24 @duchess_of_pie We will. We will watch. We are watching you right now. O_O #
  • 13:03 @duchess_of_pie Rub your face in the screen. It'll be like we're IN YOUR MIND. #
  • 13:08 @duchess_of_pie Your deal is that you need to follow more/more interesting people here. I recommend...well...everyone *I* follow, I s'pose. #
  • 13:10 @Veronica Because it gets bloggy big-wigs like you re-directing blog reading people like me to their papery paper papers? #
  • 13:21 Not quite sure what this is all about...nevertheless: @AuralVampire_FA #
  • 13:22 Off to meet the wife for coffee and commiseration session, per the usual. #
  • 13:46 Brought all 3 4ed D&D books back to the library, 90% unread. For the best, I suppose... #
  • 14:15 @tearsofash Ah, ok. That would explain the tweet bombs they are sending out. Boo! #
  • 14:42 Want to know 25 things about me you don't know? 1: Get a shovel. 2-25: Start digging. Wait, I'm doing this wrong, aren't I? #
  • 14:47 @shnjhnsn Yeah, the dragon born guys and the demon guys and the not-elves guys all sort of threw me off right away. =/ #
  • 15:06 "Built-in continue." Best thing I've heard all week. Thanks Retro Force Squad 7 Go Team Champs! #
  • 15:08 Also, another thing I should have held on too: My complete collection of Nintendo Powers for the first three years or so. T_______T #
  • 15:11 Same for the first years of GamePro. I know I could just download them all now, but it's not the same at all. Again: SAVE EVERYTHING, KIDS. #
  • 15:16 @bakatanuki I REALLY want something like this: is.gd/4Rpj I have hundreds of old 12" house/trance/happy hardcore etc. records... #
  • 15:18 @bakatanuki Do you have the first years? I think had the letter telling members of the switch to magazine from the original club newsletter. #
  • 15:33 Geez, lots of spammy Twitter followers today. What gives, Internet? #
  • 15:46 @wilw Hitler also did not like donuts. #
  • 15:55 @wilw Hitler, Hitler, Hitler and Hitler. #
  • 15:58 @wilw Maybe you would like sweet food more if you took a break from eating all those babies and puppies and unicorns? #
  • 16:13 @Sharpless It's giff like gift. There is no other way to say it! #
  • 16:23 @Sharpless I mean, you don't say "jraphics," do you? #
  • 19:05 @tiffchow :D #
  • 19:08 @jakcadden Yeah, but he left in "innocent." There's a universe of wiggle room there. #
  • 19:12 @shnjhnsn It's only expensive 'cause there's the laptop in there. #
  • 19:12 Savage Chickens is watching me: is.gd/isFO #
  • 19:16 @duchess_of_pie OMG droolz. #
  • 19:21 OK, Twitter fly-by complete. Time to do some OUSA work and listen the hell out of the Lillies and Remains CD that arrived today. #
  • 19:23 @tiffchow OMG. Is the Internet ready for another Chow? O_O; #
  • 21:56 @Topherocious @DickMcVengeance Come to northern Minnesota and grow some balls. #
  • 22:01 I shouldn't be this distracted and enraged by this worthless Virtumonde virus, but goddamn it's bugging the shit out of me. #
  • 22:09 @Godlen Yeah, Service Pack 3, right? Already had that. Done a couple different things. I think I need my system disc, but can't find it. >:( #
  • 23:15 Hoo boy. What have I done? Probably cleared it out, but, um, heh... #
  • 23:18 Well. This weekend is now booked solid with getting this failputer back together. At least it seems to be really flying. Oh dear... #
  • 23:21 @shnjhnsn Nah, I'm probably cool now. I have AVG, Spybot S&D, etc. #
  • 23:26 @Nessie Well, I wouldn't say "had to" so much as "well ok, fine, I give up, let's try...UH OH!!" #

What I said yesterday:

  • 07:09 Cat fight on the Today show. me-OW! #
  • 08:10 One of those mornings where I feel full of acid and bile and would be better off on the couch covered in animals and cookie crumbs. #
  • 09:19 @shnjhnsn OK, I think that demands pics. Or at least an explanation. #
  • 09:35 @jakcadden I'm pretty sure that being a teenage girl is the leading cause of depression in teenage girls. =/ #
  • 09:37 @jakcadden D: #
  • 10:19 @xenijardin "I'm out of it for a little while, and everybody gets delusions of grandeur." #
  • 10:42 @debaoki Isn't Airborne just water? That's the thing "invented" by a school teacher, right? #
  • 11:29 @debaoki Hey, you're in CA. Maybe you could still get in on that class action lawsuit against them? :D #
  • 11:30 @giapet *facepalm* #
  • 11:54 @jim_sterling What about "gur," "muh," "fffii," "chuh," "brru," "uhn," "yarf," "hner," "grank," "ooo," or "dammit Sterling!"? #
  • 12:08 So that Bale thing was recorded in June or July or something. Can we all agree it's viral marketing now? #
  • 13:43 @e_goldfish Yeah, I know it's weird, but everything is just too perfect for me to really believe it's unplanned. #
  • 13:43 @e_goldfish The perfect audio quality alone raises red flags. Has YouTube banned the remixes? Has there been any apology or statement? #
  • 13:46 @e_goldfish I don't want to sound like a really give a damn. It's just one of those things that bugs me. I'll stop now. #
  • 13:49 @nickchester Oh yeah, they absolutely are. I think they vaguely know how it ends, but I wouldn't plan on any profound revelations. #
  • 13:49 @nickchester Oh, well, there you go then. :D #
  • 14:04 @Karasu_anesan Fighto! #
  • 14:15 I wish De De Mouse would release that happy hardcore version of "555 Is In Your Heart" that he plays live. Good stuff, that. #
  • 14:35 @Topherocious I'm pretty sure MiniDiscs were never awesome in any way in any of the infinite number of parallel universes. #
  • 14:39 @Topherocious MiniDiscs are the 8-Track of digital technology. #
  • 15:54 @Topherocious Fill the washer with eels and it will be. #
  • 20:27 HOLY CRAP! New ugly text and stars overlaid on YouTube videos. BLECK. Now we are forced to see people's sloppy titles. What could go wrong?! #
  • 20:34 @zoecello Google docs? Not sure how ultimately private it is, but you can (must) invite specific people to view the contents. #
  • 20:47 @shnjhnsn MSPaintasaur is eating strawberries! Grrrrrryum! #
  • 21:09 Margaret Cho is a great remedy for laughter. #
  • 21:43 New on ZB's A-Z: Poll Results & New February Poll tinyurl.com/bygaux #
  • 21:52 That's it. I am out of consciousness. G'night Twitter Town. #

What I said yesterday:

  • 08:37 So that Bale blow-up is just some sort of viral marketing thing, right? I can only imagine them totally cracking up right after the cut. #
  • 08:53 New GO!GO!7188 is go! #
  • 09:00 @kurogane Depends on what you definition of "legal" is. Also "is" "available" "for" and "download." :D #
  • 09:07 @kurogane HearJapan.com has some pretty surprising stuff too, like 9mm (older stuff) and Omodaka. I think they get more $ from them as well. #
  • 09:10 @kurogane More $ than from iTunes, I mean. #
  • 09:37 Whoa. GO!GO!7188 goes metal?I LIKE. #
  • 09:40 "ON THE MAYUGE!" Nice. (That's our dog's name.) #
  • 09:58 So yeah, if you like the upbeat GO!GO! stuff then Antenna is for you. Not super catchy, but every track is pretty rockin'. Woo. /GO!GO!7188 #
  • 10:10 I know my wife hates it, but the Kiiiiiii album is one of my favorites of all time. "KU KU LA LA KU KU KA LA LA LA! AAAAH! AAAAAH! AAAAAAH!" #
  • 10:25 @colettebennett Check YouTube for live clips. Remember, it's 7 eyes. Kiiiiiii #
  • 10:35 @colettebennett Also: flickr.com/search/?q=kiiiiiii #
  • 10:55 @apelad Needs less Robin Williams, but otherwise, yes. #
  • 10:56 @CTZ If you can hear your ears ringing, that means you need to turn the music up louder. #
  • 10:59 "Knife Vacation" is one of the better Ling Tosite Sigure song titles. Also "I Not Crazy Am You Are." #
  • 11:46 New YMCK /Family Cooking/: 8-bit drum solo! 8-bit classic metal! Etc! Nice. #
  • 11:48 @wilw Yeah, I never understood that. Talk about not knowing your target audience! #
  • 12:07 @jim_sterling IX still feels weird to me. It's like a Disney movie surrounded by Lord of the Rings films. #
  • 13:27 Oh, right. This plastic Stormtrooper-head cup full of pens is not my coffee cup, and this ink needs more cream. #
  • 13:58 @Ace0fClub5 @giapet And it looks like the XBox logo... #
  • 14:08 @giapet :D The real question is...people still care about Haruhi? I ask 'cause I haven't been paying attention to anime for > a year now... #
  • 14:12 @badbanana YES. PLEASE. LET ME DIE. #
  • 14:13 RT @badbanana: Anyone else have a major case of the Tuesday afternoon kill-me-nows? #
  • 14:39 @wilw Oh. I thought you were talking about an "urban" version of that airhead from Friends. #
  • 14:40 @shnjhnsn Yeah, considering it shot up on Digg and you always see "Bale" and "new Terminator movie" together. I call 100% shenanigans. #
  • 14:42 @shnjhnsn Especially considering that I had no idea they were making another movie, nor, obviously, that he was part of it. Me = the target. #
  • 14:48 I am really sick of hearing people screw up oaths over and over again. Can't we get back to talking about the war(s)? #
  • 15:58 @giapet I would have been all over it if they released it right after the first series, but now? SO. SICK. OF. SEEING. HER. MY. GOD. #
  • 18:03 In other news, that same virus is back on my computer! Yay! More pop ups please! KILL ME. #
  • 18:08 RT @badbanana: As if my day wasn't crappy enough, I just walked into Christian Bale's shot. #
  • 18:08 @e_goldfish IT'S NOT REAL. Can't be. I call viral marketing. #
  • 18:51 @kawaiiaya Have you heard anything by Zoe Keating? Same idea, only with a cello: tinyurl.com/2y2r54 also @zoecello #
  • 20:02 Another night dealing with my failputer. Another night without Japanator Radio. Sorry! #
  • 20:33 @shnjhnsn I got a case of the Virtumonde. *cough* *sniffle* #
  • 20:34 @shnjhnsn Oh, and no idea where it came from though. Well, I have an idea, but it's got to be 99.9% coincidence. #
  • 20:35 @Benu Thanks! It's nothing super bad, just annoying and time consuming and mentally draining. Me not know computers too good. #
  • 21:17 @badbanana Amazing! :D #
  • 21:23 Oh dear: tinyurl.com/cbbu4x #
  • 21:48 @nickchester MAJEEEEEEEESTIIIIIC MAAAAAAAAAAARCH! #
  • 21:50 Koalas in hot tubs and weirdos singing silly songs are really distracting my "work." Damn Internet. #
  • 22:25 @electrolemon Really? I haven't liked any of the songs very much. The shows are funny, but nothing sticks out as being very great to me. =/ #
  • 22:54 @Karasu_anesan Exactly! #
  • 22:56 @shnjhnsn L I V I N! #
  • 22:58 OK. Browsing seems to be stable...so far. Going to shut everything down and hope I can get much more done tomorrow night. Fingers crossed. #
  • 23:01 @shnjhnsn Hey, I would have KILLED to have my own place, a laptop and a PS3 when I was 23. :D #

What I said yesterday:

  • 07:18 @dannychoo Feedburner subscriber stats were way down for a while, but mine are now back up. Otherwise, the transition was fine. #
  • 08:40 And on the first day, God did cast his baleful glance across what he hath wrought and was heard to utter "m...unm...goin' back to bed..." #
  • 08:49 And obviously, to prove my point, that should have been "the EIGHTH day..." Eighth. Eighth. What an ugly word. Eighth. Bleck. #
  • 09:13 @mrdavehill Just listened to your bit on TAL. Nice! Crack is wack. #
  • 09:53 @gonolius Students of Michigan Technological University rolled the world's largest snowball on February 10, 2006. #
  • 09:54 @gonolius It was 21 feet 3 inches in circumference (81 inches or 2.06 metres in diameter) #
  • 09:55 @gonolius The Guinness Book of World's Records has declared Olympia, the world's tallest snowman...at 122 feet and one inch high. #
  • 10:59 @Nannerpus Shoot! Where was Nannerpus when I was stuffing my face with doughnuts? #
  • 11:16 @wilw You are being watched. O_O #
  • 11:29 Oh, I should probably say sorry for the late Japanator Radio this week. Should be up later tonight. Hang tight! #
  • 11:48 @tiffchow The world needs more Debbies. #
  • 11:49 I've been listening to so much half-assed, mediocre music lately. Depressing. Please find your entire ass before you hit "record," m-kay? #
  • 11:58 Guess I'll just listen to these 6 Lillies and Remains tracks over and over. They need to release 100 more songs immediately. #
  • 12:21 @tearsofash .gadget? I might need a bit more to go on... :) #
  • 12:45 @BrentSpiner Don't worry. Machines don't age, they become vintage collectibles. #
  • 12:53 @BrentSpiner @BadAstronomer OH SNAP! #
  • 12:58 @shnjhnsn In regards to your Velveeta inquiry: is.gd/i7oy #
  • 12:58 @zoecello Happy birthhog day! #
  • 13:02 @colettebennett And yet none of the staff has had their extravagantly proportioned likeness rendered in cheap Taiwanese vinyl? Slackers. #
  • 14:26 Gosh, he doesn't look at all mad nor science-y. @tjackb Maybe it's the lack of lime green? #
  • 14:29 @SamitSarkar Ha! It's still less than ten above here and I rarely put a hat on at all. Suck it up!! :D #
  • 14:31 @Karasu_anesan I am the Nelson to your Skinner. #
  • 14:44 @Karasu_anesan Crabapple? #
  • 14:48 @Karasu_anesan "Crabapple? More like CRAB APPLE." *gasps* #
  • 14:58 @Karasu_anesan :D #
  • 15:14 @Karasu_anesan "Come on Edna, don't be tardy." #
  • 16:03 @king3vbo something something massive damage something #
  • 18:27 @shnjhnsn Yeah, she worked in the cheese mines for a while. That shit makes a girl hardened to just about anything. #
  • 19:45 Once again I seem to be spending the night scanning my computer to try and get rid of this pop-up thing. Vundo, maybe? *grumble* #
  • 19:45 I haven't had to do anything in "safe mode" for a looong time. At least the lappy is up and running... #
  • 19:58 Huh. So the scroll bar on the lappy doesn't work, there is no sound and the screen has no contrast? This is worth having Windows for? #
  • 20:23 OK, time to see if the hunt for a damn needle in a haystack worked. I really hate computer business!!! Someone send me a nerd! #
  • 20:30 @giapet Thanks! I know a couple, but they both have "important jobs" helping "people" "not die." Well, one of them does, at least. >_> #
  • 20:42 So far, things look ok. What a waste of a night. Draining. (-_-) #
  • 21:07 @Godlen Thanks for the tips. I THINK I fixed it, but if not, I will follow up. #
  • 21:09 Due to my computer problems, Japanator Radio will be delayed one more night. Sorry! Maybe listen to one of the 73 older shows? #
  • 22:19 @cleversimon Yes, it is in fact a thing. And that is the extent of my understanding of it. #
  • 22:20 @kurogane Looks like I'm all clear...but I'm treading lightly... #

What I said yesterday:

  • 09:59 So far, the songs in the new Conchords are not so great. Last Lost was OK. Last BGS was great. Fringe was meh. /TV update #
  • 10:00 I am not so interested in today. Must find motivation and really get a lot of writing down, as usual. Probably won't. Dur dur dur dur dur... #
  • 11:52 RT @shnjhnsn: What is velveeta? [Retweet for Amber, who might read this somewhere else and have a very detailed and gross answer.] #
  • 20:36 Yeah, this is how I roll: twitpic.com/1acu6 #
  • 20:41 RT @badbanana: Bruce Springsteen and the E-Trade Band. #
  • 20:42 RT @krupinski: Bruce springstein just dicked me in the face. #
  • 20:48 Looks like we have a game finally? Whoa. #
  • 21:00 Oh, he was SO out of bounds. #
  • 21:03 SUPER. #
  • 21:08 End. #
  • 21:11 Poor bird guys. #
  • 21:12 @gonolius Ha! Yes, it's so much better than the Bowl. #
  • 21:18 BRING BACK NANNERPUSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #
  • 21:27 And yeah, the real winner here is Hulu. #
  • 21:55 OK, that face thing was pretty good. #theoffice #
  • 22:02 @Nannerpus Awesome. #
  • 22:28 Well, time to put an end to this worthless weekend. Yuck. Goodnight, Twitter Town! #

  • 14:24 Bob Ross. #
  • 14:44 Attention Last.fm users: www.last.fm/music/The+Surfactants #
  • 18:10 @leighalexander Sort of. It's in a sort of beta. I can't wait for any old indie band to be able to get on there. Like mine, for instance. #
  • 18:12 @levarburton You mean as a podcast? iTunes maybe? #
  • 18:14 @electrolemon Not me. The Princess Bride is one of my favorite movies! Besides, it's all about loyalty and revenge and killing! MANLY! #
  • 18:36 New slippers. #
  • 18:44 New temporary avatar yoinked from the awesome photos by @Ace0fClub5. #

What I said yesterday:

  • 07:19 @Ace0fClub5 "The Uninvited" is a crappy crappy remake of the perfect "Tale of Two Sisters." I am VERY happy that they changed the name... #
  • 07:36 So the 8-baby baby momma already had 6 kids and took fertility drugs for 8 more? That's a paddlin'. #
  • 08:46 Heaven is infinity doughnuts. #
  • 09:11 @Ace0fClub5 Happy b-day! Your worst years are now behind you. To the future!!! #
  • 09:15 I desire some hot 303 knob twisting action. #
  • 09:18 @DaleNorth Ga! #
  • 09:21 @DaleNorth Oh man, painful. #
  • 09:22 Also, I want this song in Rock Band so I can play it just like these guys: tinyurl.com/2nynjd #
  • 09:55 /Hypermaterical/ by Cygnus X is still my favorite straight-up trance album. Still holds up after 14 years. A million layers and pounding. #
  • 11:12 Anyone else been noticing a lot of Oreo's with flipped over cookie layers? Profoundly disturbing. #
  • 11:41 If you're stuck out in the ice without power until next month, make sure to thank your Republican representative! #
  • 13:25 You know it's cold when you go outside, get hit by the wind, involuntarily exclaim "Oh!" then fall over and explode. #
  • 14:00 Hackin' my blog. #
  • 14:03 Ten seconds of Boards of Canada and I'm dreaming of lazy sunbeams and dust motes. #
  • 14:12 @DaleNorth I feel really weird for having handed off the interview to someone else at OUSA, but I really have nothing to say to her. =/ #
  • 14:13 @DaleNorth The kicker is that I'm sure my interview with Audry Kimura (BENTEN), who has done more for J-music than Utada ever will, will... #
  • 14:14 @DaleNorth ...probably fall on mostly deaf ears. Ah well, so much for the little guy (or girl, in this case.) #
  • 14:15 @DickMcVengeance Welcome to show business! #
  • 14:24 @bakatanuki Yay! You are my favorite person. (At least for today.) :D #
  • 14:31 @DaleNorth Oh dude, yeah, I saw that Tetris contest video. God. #
  • 14:40 @jim_sterling The zombification begins! #
  • 14:42 @colettebennett lol "good." More like "god." #
  • 14:44 @miyagawa Are you able to pay for design work? #
  • 14:47 @miyagawa Heh. =) well, I'm sure there are plenty of designers out there with no self-worth that would be interested. :D #
  • 14:48 @bakatanuki Did you know that he's going to be on the Japan Nite tour? #
  • 15:03 Doing some deep-brain cleansing with Venetian Snare's /Chocolate Wheelchair./ Ahhhh...volume up up up snare avalanche boi!!!!! #
  • 15:07 @bakatanuki I'll have to do some serious traveling if I'm going to see it. Tried to get Audrey to bring it to Mpls/St. Paul but no go... >_< #
  • 15:53 "He likes to steal, so here's your bill!" #
  • 18:11 @darkcyder Just about every show has a slightly different line-up. Maybe he just can't make it that early??? #
  • 18:13 @levarburton NOT WALMART. #

What I said yesterday:

  • 08:42 Few things make me want to listen to an album more than a bad review full of passionate hatred for the music. #
  • 09:16 @shnjhnsn Nah, a local band reviewed by a guy who has no business talking about electro rock. Turns out they are pretty OK. (No, not us.) #
  • 09:18 I love how it takes a revolutionary president to point out that snow in January shouldn't be a big surprise, you wimps. #
  • 09:30 Also, Maddow points out that the Dems worked very hard to make the eco stim package work for the Reps, and then NONE of them voted for it. #
  • 10:07 @BadAstronomer Those aren't stars, they are FLYING SAUCER MEN! #
  • 13:53 @tiffchow That's what happens when a network pulls the plug. Have you seen HBO's Carnivale? Same problem. GREAT S1, but S2 really tanked. #
  • 14:05 @tiffchow Yeah, it is very good. Like Twin Peaks in the Great Depression and in a traveling carnival. It gets a little crappy near the end.. #
  • 14:05 @tiffchow ...but it's worth sticking with it. #
  • 14:27 @wilw Neutral Milk Hotel "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" #
  • 14:29 @wilw Everything by Sigur Ros #
  • 14:29 @wilw Everything by Boards of Canada #
  • 14:36 @wilw Zoe Keating (who I think you are already familiar with...) #
  • 14:37 @wilw Dead Can Dance, maybe? #
  • 14:39 @shnjhnsn I see what you did there. #
  • 15:03 @tiffchow Oh, and the little talking backwards guy from TP is also in Carnivale. #
  • 15:16 @tiffchow Way! He's a main character through both seasons. Lots of strange characters in that one, actually. Scorpion girl is freaky. O_O; #
  • 15:42 Today I went to lunch with some of my wife's coworkers. I had beef curry & an eggroll. Then SBucks for a coffee & later some birthday cake. #
  • 15:45 I wish I knew the name of this song so I could tell you how good it was. #
  • 15:54 Yeah, if you want to see me move, just put on some good monochromatic tribal prog house and play it dangerously loud. #
  • 16:20 @mileskahn If you use it, it will add a link to search (on Twitter) the word the follows it. #
  • 18:18 @Ace0fClub5 Or download the original staring Patrick Stewart! :D #
  • 18:23 @wilw You were on TV? #
  • 18:23 @jim_sterling You could read the Dtoid review??? #
  • 18:35 @jim_sterling Yeah, if no one hates it, it must not be any good. Wait, what? #
  • 19:11 Catching up with three days of non-Rock Band related stuff. First up, Fringe. Then Lost/Daily Show/Colbert. Paralleled with web stuff. #
  • 20:09 Think I've mentioned it before, but I love Nendroid Comics: nedroidcomics.livejournal.com/202375.html #
  • 20:19 Polysics, hard at work in the studio: is.gd/hLbB #
  • 20:56 Blarg. Virus alerts. *stares at various scanning windows* #
  • 22:44 @shnjhnsn New post? What? Seems to be nothing there... #
  • 22:47 @apelad My bank statement shi.. #
  • 07:19 @Ace0fClub5 "The Uninvited" is a crappy crappy remake of the perfect "Tale of Two Sisters." I am VERY happy that they changed the name... #
  • 07:36 So the 8-baby baby momma already had 6 kids and took fertility drugs for 8 more? That's a paddlin'. #

What I said yesterday:

  • 08:29 RT @badbanana: I'm looking forward to complaining about summer weather. #
  • 08:40 Pumping myself full of vitamins and Green Machine and Ibuprofen, but still getting slight chills and my skin hurts. Woo hoo? Also, zzz. #
  • 08:59 Listening to Blagobleep on Maddow. Super slippery dude. #
  • 09:09 He sure does like to quote "Doctor King." Yuck. #
  • 09:26 Well, sounds like @maddow managed to really hurt Blago's case. Nice work! #
  • 10:01 The coolest thing about Rock Band is when the crowd songs along. It's only happened to me in real life a few times. It's always great. #
  • 10:44 @leighalexander Really? As in for The Onion? If so, wow, congrats! #
  • 11:21 @colettebennett Yeah, I'm totally ready for a new FF game. BRING IT ON! But, not till 2010 maybe? Ug. #
  • 11:23 @brianszabelski Dude. A shovel. Get one. #
  • 11:26 @brianszabelski Get out there and use it, soldier! You're not a real man till you've had your first snow shoveling induced heart-attack. #
  • 11:28 Also, I envy those of you in the ice-storm area. Those deals are fun. And pretty. #
  • 11:30 @Zeouterlimits BOO. #
  • 13:09 @colettebennett I thought it was next month, but now I'm not seeing it listed. Hmm... #
  • 13:11 DROOL! Final Fantasy Advent Children Blu-ray w/ Final Fantasy XIII demo up for pre-sale! is.gd/hyWp #
  • 13:24 @kurogane Ha! Oh yeah, I suppose subs would help...shucks. #
  • 13:34 @debaoki My wife drinks decaf mochas all the time, but yeah, I don't get it either. #
  • 13:38 I'd rather be playing Rock Band. #
  • 14:17 LOL caffeine bot. #
  • 15:14 @shnjhnsn Does it involve you becoming independently wealthy? #
  • 18:40 Hey LOST people. Just download it tonight/tomorrow morning like everyone else and watch the LIVE RiffTrax!!! www.rifftrax.com/live #
  • 19:48 RT @rifftrax: Re-Tweet This: RiffTrax Live in half an hour at www.rifftrax.com/live! #
  • 19:58 www.rifftrax.com/live #
  • 20:06 @rifftrax Thanks for the update. I was on your page for a couple hours, but never got the picture after it started! #
  • 20:09 @rifftrax Down! Oh noes! #
  • 20:17 At least the @rifftrax chat room is pretty amusing. #
  • 20:32 twitpic.com/18ikw - @rifftrax I'll never get tired of this view. Thanks guys! #
  • 20:41 @wilw Is that some sort of Rouge-like reference? #
  • 20:42 @BillCorbett Nice job guys. Thanks! twitpic.com/18ikw #
  • 21:01 Blackened. 91% on Expert. 1st time. I knew all those days headbanging to it alone in my room would eventually pay off. #
  • 22:58 Playing drums on Rock Band Metallica songs is so awesome. Seriously, Expert is so much easier than Hard. Strange. #
  • 22:59 Sorry about all the RB blather. We just got it and it's crazy fun. I'll probably stop now. REALLY need some sleep. Ouch. #
