Photo of Jeff Bauman (the individual from the iconic picture and person who ID'd the bombers) giving a birthday present to Sydney Corcoran, another marathon victim.

Pretty uplifting.

Learn to Speak Dothraki and Valyrian From the Man Who Invented Them for Game of Thrones Bad news, Game of Thrones fans: You are mispronouncing Daenerys’s honorific, Khaleesi. But don’t feel bad. On the HBO show, her smitten man-servant Jorah has been saying it incorrectly as well; the more accurate...

Listening to the Joe Rogan posdcast and he's reading from the book of Ezekiel. He notes this passage, 4:12: Eat the food as you would a loaf of barley bread; bake it in the sight of the people, using human excrement for fuel. And he continued reading with the UFO shit. 4 dudes that were like human w...

Although I used to love me some Salems. Damn.

I'm closing in on the longest I have gone without a smoke since I was, well, twelve.

Menthol. I would have guessed Kools. That's what mom smokes. Soft pack. Yup.

There's a thing called Google Hangout?

Yea, I could ramble about Korea. I could have done this weekly over the last year. That sounds fun.

Three more that I don't believe I've read yet:

Christopher Titus
Joe Rogan
Penn Jillette's Sunday School

Howard, don't you share a Dropbox with me? I'll upload them for you. The final season is split 8 episodes each. I have the first 8. The final 8 will start showing in August.

There really needs to be a parody video of that Dove 3 minute ad where women describe themselves as ugly with dude's describing themselves as awesome. This is the most obvious parody ever, btw.

D'oh. I should search YouTube before I post a random thought like that. Already happened. Twice.

Tomorrow is Earth Day. Or, as I prefer to call it, Environmentalist Kwanzaa. In Canada, Starbucks is giving away free coffee to anyone who visits one of their shops with a re-usable Starbucks mug. I have a two-cup (at least, by volume) Starbucks mug that I liberated somewhere along the line. There'...

Unfortunately, the only weapons I would have access to are my own. When I live on base, I'm living in a city that can go into 'lockdown' at any moment. And, ohbytheway, my guns are with my cousin in Arizona. :-/

He was the dude in 8 Mile who was banging Eminem's mom (Kim Basinger).

Well my name is Jimmy
His name's Greg Buehl
Me, him an' you, - we went to the same school
This ain't cool... I'm in a rage
He's tapping my mom and we're almost the same age!

…I have a microphone that I have never used. I have two turntables That's where it's at. On the Swampcast: Each person uses Skype. Each downloads CallBurner. And Viola! A recorded phone call conversation. Very simple. I'd then load the MP3 into Audacity, add an intro, and save as an MP3. I'd post i...

I wanted to post this in the Boston Marathon thread, but this is the more appropriate one for it: Why does America lose its head over 'terror' but ignore its daily gun deaths? Honestly, I have to agree with much of what's said. But people are still all pouty on the background check. Not for nothing,...

They are young and stupid, or they are Iraqi or Afghan veterans (read: burn out cases). They have essentially no fire discipline. Wow. That's pretty bold. I'd like to see his numbers that back that up. The way that reads, he's making former military members seem like pathetic losers who were given ...

What's the deal with Ted McGinley being married to girls on screen that like being with other girls? Weird. I damn near lost it when Don made this face: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c328/johnnie_AF/donface_zps416d087f.jpg And that poor little flake Meredith! More laugh out loud moments from her...

Awesome Fucking Ending. Dany is the shit. Don't fuck with that dragon mother. Yea it was. She was obviously like "Nah, bitch. Hold up. I wrote this story. You didn't." http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/How_to_Train_Your_Dragon_Poster.jpg/220px-How_to_Train_Your_Dragon_Po...

I didn't grow up a coffee drinker. I passionately hated the stuff. The only time in my life I consumed coffee on a daily basis was my first tech school. However, I'd add a packet of cocoa so it was more palletable. But dammit if the prevalence of good coffee in Korea isn't changing me a bit. Not onl...

Arrested in Alabama for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

Way to flake out in 12 days.

Gah! Forgot that it's Sunday night where youse are located. Putting fingers in my ears and yelling "LALALALALALALA" loudly right now.

See that's what I had figured asking the question. They are capitalizing off of Big Papi's comment first, the victims second. Whatever Barstool can do to be overt about Boston is the thing here. In 5 years, if I were to wear that shirt, the first thing someone's going to look at that and think is &q...

Not a free agent, but Revis is undergoing a physical with the Bucs and PFT says there is framework for a trade. For the 13th pick this year and a conditional 4th rounder next year. Revis signs a 6 yr/96MM deal. Oddity about it: no guaranteed money. Interesting. I, for one, am looking forward to a b...

So if bought the Barstool Sports shirt "This Is Our Fucking City" where all proceeds go to marathon victims, it's still a douchey Masshole move, right?

So, so sad that none of these women have ever heard of "the internet." Surely, their husbands have.

The books are written as this epic setting and universe, right? So...that means tons of characters, story lines, plot twists, history, and everything else a fantasy writer can pack into 7 books roughly a thousand pages at a time. And HBO went along with it to pack into a TV series with 10 episodes, ...

Was this live on NESN today? If so, nice.

Johnnie

Who let Senor Chang work for the FBI?

Johnnie

Is "smoke" a common term for hot chick? Is that new/regional? Pretty sure it's a Dave Portnoy/Barstool Sports thing. It's the only place I've seen it used. He does a "local smokeshow" set every day or so. However, I've referred to a girl as "smoking hot" since forever....

Commie.

That photo I linked was just flashed on CNN.

(Well, it doesn't say much about how legit it is, but ya know. It probably does.)

I'm going to eventually share that photo. Those socks are so damn 'MURICAN.

If I were still in Tucson, I just might have been running in it. Considering Coachella was last weekend and this weekend, I could've been on leave in SoCal these last 10 or so days had I not been here in Korea.

Alleged pic of the arrest taken by an EMT at the scene. From Twitter, so salt and all that.

Just got back inside and am watching this unfold on TV.

The amount of cops in that one area is a jarring scene.
