Much respect to Jelly Donut’s lastest reprise antics as the gansta rappin dude dressed in a giant jelly donut costume. He is hilarious. If you are not familiar with Jelly Donut’s work, first check out this humorous video on Jelly Donut for Current TV here. This will set the stage for the following clip better. Or maybe you think a rapping donut is funny as is. His latest video called “McCain Be Old” deserves your attention now.
This is nothing but shameless promotion. I have not been writing for a while. My excuse? bad women and hard work. Nuff said, right?
My least favorite holiday of all time is coming up. Valentines Day! Boo. I am one of those Valentine day haters, along with a few others. I was offered to dj an Anti-Valentines Drink the pain away party at the Argus Lounge, located at 3187 Mission St at Valencia in the lovely city of San Francisco of course. My Dj Buddies:Tau G and Saiman will be sharing the decks with me. $4 Fernet Shots!!!
The music? Hateful love songs a la techno electro booty shake redemption. Yes. I should have started the promotion like three weeks ago, but like I said, bad women and hard work. To those girls out there who have been kicking my heart around like Diego Maradona kicks a soccer ball lately, I dedicate this to you. ha ha ha ha haaaaaa.
I will be back with more quirks, news, and ridiculous opinions soon. My day job has been squeezing every drop of my time. I woke up this morning dreaming about funnel pages, user experience and email subject lines. The first word I said this morning coming out of a deep dream was “conversion.” Yes folks, that is how crazy I am becoming. Marketing to your minds.
I will be attending one of my other favorite Anti Valentines day events in San Francisco earlier in the night however. The massive pillow fight. Here is a video from last years Valentines day pillow fight extraordinaire:
I recently wrote about the movie Idiocracy with Luke Wilson and urged some of you to get it. Well if you ever actually saw it you will recognize the fictional Brawndo softdrink from the future. Well, 20th Century F0x and Redux Beverages LLC teamed up to make the real life Brawndo which is available as of December 15th. It is a peculiar move by the studio to allow its production, considering they pretty much slipped this instant classic movie straight to DVD under the noses of the public, but that is another topic.
Tasteless joke, or marketing genius?
Redux Beverages LLC, from Las Vegas, is the same company that delivered us “Cocaine” energy drink, a product that was pulled off the shelves for FDA violations regarding its name. The brainchild behind these edgy-branded direct marketing schemes is a man with an impressive and respectable resume named Clegg Ivey. One day he just though it would be cool to name a soft drink “Cocaine.” Brawndo’s contents by the way: 200 milligrams of Caffeine, Taurine, Inositol, Guarana, and of course Electrolyes - no high fructose or corn sugar (huh?).
The hands that shook in order to make this deal happen include Omni Consumer Products Corporation, whose company slogan is: “We do what we must, because we can.” In other words, “we will b-slap you with our slogan if you front - and name our soft drink ‘Cocaine’, because we must.” Their website is suspiciously void of much information.
I lean towards marketing genius. Check out their shopping cart website which allows you to also join Brawndo on Facebook and MySpace. The underground buzz created by this movie, and now this drink are making people attempt Brawndo diets and blogging the experience. If Brawndo becomes the next Coke, we are headed one step closer to Mike Judge’s vision of the future.
Professor Il-Keun Kong from Gyeongsang National University in South Korea thinks it’s a good idea to clone glow in the dark cats. Is anyone concerned with losing their cat in the dark? This is what he said:
“We have proved our world-class ability in cloning animals that have modified characteristics,” said Kong. “We found that the red fluorescent protein in all the organs of the dead kitten, which means we have established an efficient way of cloning gene-modified cats.’‘
“Li Ka-shing is the richest man in Asia and the ninth richest person in the world, and owner of an appropriate rich guy last name. His wealth is valued at $23 billion” and he recently decided to drop 60 million for a piece of Facebook. What a cheap ass! I also read that he dresses “modestly”. When you run out of money next time, just say his name three times. Watch the money pour in. Can anyone get this guy to introduce China to greener technologies? I noticed his portfolio pretty much pollutes the earth.
This is a ridiculous sleeping bag made by Kelty that my friend Tau bought this afternoon. It was packed in a box, which made no sense, but it added to its impressive proportion. It was so big I got inside to see what it was all about. Could this sleeping bag be used as a good pick up line excuse somehow?
Eventually owning this sleeping bag should should pay off big in someway or another. Give shelter to a homeless person, assist in an emergency child birth, or meet a future wife this way. This sleeping bag could easily fit a small family. Here is the testament.
Am I exaggerating? Is this not a Big ASS Sleeping bag??
