Rampant Exclamations

Links: I got ‘em, you want ‘em. Let’s make a deal!

- Are you one of those people who can’t stand taking off a bandaid? Try soaking it in vodka first. The alcohol will apparently destroy the solvent, making it a painless removal - heck, sounds like it might just fall off.
- Abercrombie & Fitch paid [...]

Woo! Welcome to March! Springlike temperatures ahoy! (For a couple days, anyway…) Oh, and I think St. Paddy’s Day is coming up soon. Nothing like getting crunk in the middle of the week.
BRAWL COUNTDOWN: 6 more days.

- Dear HP: it has been three months since I last saw my laptop…
- This is fun: Cash Tomato [...]

Forwards from Phil: Feb. 29, 2008 - Leap Day Edition

And now, it’s the post I only get to write every 4 years, or rather, only in years divisible by four, unless they end in 00, in which case only if they’re divisible by 400: the Leap Day Edition! Also known as the Intercalary Day Edition, which sounds weird, or the Bissextile Day Edition, which [...]

Welcome back from your weekend, folks. And thanks for all the comments recently, by the way: as Will (or maybe it was Greg? I’d had several beers) analogized on Friday, a blog without comments is like being the stand-up comic that no one laughs at. Only in this case, it’s like the stand-up comic does [...]

If you ever happen to be out at a bar with Greg, and he offers you a green iguana, say no. “Of course it doesn’t have tequila in it!” He’s a damn dirty liar.
Here’s some stuff that cropped up over the weekend.

- Woohoo! The writers’ strike may end tomorrow! And apparently, an internet video is [...]

Oh hey, I knew I was forgetting something. First off: I went to see Cloverfield Saturday night. If you are not prone to motion sickness, you should go see it. If you are prone to motion sickness, run the hell away. It’s pretty good.
Anyway, here’s what else you missed while you were getting annihilated [...]

The American Gladiators Drinking Game

Courtesy of Michael Naggleabison, who made me feel stupid for not thinking of it before the first episode, I give you the OFFICIAL (Patents Pending) Rampant Exclamations American Gladiators Drinking Game Rules and Regulations: Volume 1!  These include the rules that Mr. Nibblearaisin told me as we watched the last episode, as well as a lot [...]

A few things I forgot, none of which have to do with video games:
- Best science experiment ever: scientists discover that drinking games make you drunk. “The researchers say their fieldwork, which involved studying more than 1,300 people at parties, is an improvement over past studies that relied on people’s recollections of getting hammered.” Seriously, [...]

Welcome to 2008.
The new year came in with a bang, or at least a small one, and a significant amount of rocking, and an equally significant amount of cheap Beringer wine. Did you know you can buy that stuff in a one-and-a-half liter “Drink me, drunky!” size for $9.99? Highly recommended if you don’t like [...]

Hit it and quit it!

That’s the name of the game for this week’s installment of Rampant Exclamations, for we are busy men with busy lives and sometimes don’t have the time nor the inclination to ramble on and on about every single topic we choose to enlighten you with.  Nay, our time is much too valuable to waste by [...]
