The new Aol...lol
AOL is rebranding itself as Aol.
I’m on my phone so I can’t link to anything. Actually, I wouldn’t do it if I was sitting at my desktop, so Google is your friend.
The company’s new plan of attack is to make itself 1990s again. You’ll find a variety of logos featuring the new typeface ontop of clipart that’re so Windows 95.
There’s also a video that features cardboard cut out stop motion, a...

Wait! Paramount!! STOP!
I should have seen this coming. Paranormal Activity makes a lot of cash, so Paramount is thinking sequel.
I guess we forgot what happens when you make a sequel to a film made in the same style of Paranormal Activity.
I saw the film the other day, and while I didn’t have the same jump back reactions like the people in the advertisements, I did find it to be unsettling.
I don’t see...
Ode to Geocities
I’m really sad to see that Yahoo! shut down Geocities yesterday. Like, I’m serious when I say that. I mean, think of how you would feel if Facebook shut down tomorrow (It will in about 10 years after everyone has moved to something else). Geocities was the first Facebook to me, but it was a Facebook you had to code by hand.
I built fan sites, which got me a lot of free stuff from...
Just doesn't make sense...
A friend is have battery issues on his iPhone 3GS. I recommended that he buy a .99 cents app called iStat. This way he can kind of get an idea of what’s going on with his phone. When he went to the app’s page in the iTunes store, he asked if the app was worth it because of its two star rating.
Two stars? It’s a great app!
So I checked the page and saw that many people were...

iPhone flub #2
milf became… Milford. How unsexy.
Beats eharmony
I did not know that telling a girl you like about your sad dating life was a way to pick up girls. I guess your plan backfires when they tell you to check out match.com
I’m still LOLin IRL.

I am the Paula Deen of Ramen
Seriously.
If you want to mix it up a bit and turn a cheap, bland meal into something awesome. You’ll need to do the following.
- Break up two packs of Ramen noodles and cook them.
- In a bowl, add a little bit of Olive Oil and Light Soy Sauce.
- Dump the noodles into the bowl.
- Add one pack of the seasoning. Save the second pack for later. Toss it. Whatever.
- Sprinkle some Curry...

Ticket to rideeeee! Hehe
The Beatles Rock Band is a wonderful Disney anamatronic like ride that you don’t get to watch because you’re too busy controlling the damn thing.
Get to know your current living location, you hick
Someone thinks that you don’t see the trees turn during the fall because it doesn’t get cold enough.
I think it’s because a majority of the trees around here are evergreens.
Your 15 minutes is better spent indoors. Away from...
Since when did youtube become a site where a bunch of kids, “report the news,” and spend 3 minutes of a 4 minute video begging for comments and five star ratings?
iPhone flub #1
Because auto correct makes it interesting!
When I was asked my location, I typed “Past Cinco,” but the iPhone thought it would be funny to correct it to
Past Cincinnati
So that’s what was sent instead.

I will say this
I strongly dislike the Kia Rondo. It honestly looks like a rhino.
I tell my friends where it’s at in the parking lot, and that it’s hard to miss because it’s the only car out there that’s grazing on the grass.
When I want to go somewhere, I have to tranq it 30 minutes before I need to leave, so I can mount it before it wakes up.
I look like a bearded soccor mom when I...
iPhone saves the day!
So, I got into a bad car accident today. When some people wash and clean their cars, it rains. I run into people.
The cop was pleasant, as was the guy I hit too. Since this was the first car accident I’ve been in, I had no idea what to do. I luckily downloaded my insurance company’s iPhone app the other day, and it contains a section that tells you what to do in an accident, and a...
REALLY GOOGLE DESKTOP? REALLY?
While sycning the photos from my mighty iPhone down to my iPhoto Library, I was kindly warned that my hard drive was running low on space. I thought to myself that this was certainly impossible because I had over 300GB of free space the last time I checked (last week).
I launched Disk Inventory X to see where all of that space went, and I found out that a Google folder in my...

MORE BARS OR WHATEVER...
If you’re in the Destin FL area and you notice that you can’t use the Internet on your iPhone during the weekend, and it’s a bit more humid than usual is because AT&T’s cell towers are sweating.

Transsuck!
They should seriously stop letting Michael Bay direct movies. What I saw on screen was not Transformers. I don’t really know what it was because I had no idea what was going on most of the time. I just know that a group of robots were pissed at another group of robots and a fight happened for two and a half hours.
The series has decades of mythology and developed characters, you would think...

Didn't have the heart to say
I encountered a dude of sorts the other day. I was helping him out at my place of employment. The usual chit chat starts up and he mentions that he use to do the same thing I’m doing now (school/work) when he was my age. Curious, I asked what age that was, and he told me when he was 19. I asked how old he was now, and he tells me that he’s 24.
I’m 27.
Now, who gets the rights...

The iPhone shows the progress bar while it sends a text message to give you time to realize all of your spelling mistakes and panic.
That was odd
I had this nightmare of sorts last night. Someone very close to me ended up dead. Now, their method…of death was an unusual one. It’s usually a car crash, or being shot in combat. But never (until now) someone getting offed by a Hitman while they’re having tea on a backpacking trip through Europe.
“The perfect night would include a few drinks at the bar and a trip to the...”

Packaging!
I maybe the only person outside of Pepsi to think that their new packaging is genius. I don’t care for the, “new,” logo. Whatever. But look at a box of Pepsi. It’s just a blue box with like three other colors on it. Every other package for any other product is extreme. It induces a seizure. A box of Pepsi is so plain, it sticks out. Wow!

Bathroom time is now social time
I herby declare that the iPhone app Twinkle is the most used app while people are in the restroom.
To bring you up to speed on what Twinkle is, it’s a handy application that let’s you browse and post to Twitter. The creators of the app, Tapulous, also has their network that rides shotgun. The UI for the app is pretty slick. Your friends’ 140 character self-promotion end up in...
THE BEST POST YET!
I started taking supplements to help out with that muscle building thing I’m trying out. This is something I’ve been doing off and on for years. Same routine. Work out, buy suppliments, bulk up, think I can eat anything in the world, then gain it all back (without realizing it too)
One thing Ive noticed about the packaging said suppliments come in is that they ALWAYS say something...
Thrilled
A drone at Facebook made this long blog post about how they’re readding features that were removed when the “twitter like” redesign was rolled out. I’m using quotes because I don’t think it’s twitter like. It’s just what the people who don’t use twitter, or even know what it is are calling it.
This back and forth stuff with features is great. I...
I caught myself paying attention to the lyrics for that, “Baby one more time,” song. Maybe I was searching for some sort of deep meaning. I’m not sure, but I was thinking to myself, “Really, seventeen year old Britney? Really…?”
