THIS WEEK ON Walking Dead: Chupacabra
We start this week’s walking dead with more flashbacks. I don’t know if I’m softening or if its getting a little better, but I didn’t hate this flashback. Of course it could be because it involved one of my fantasies, firebombing Atlanta. So we’re treated with a little prequel about how our merry band started and then is off to the land of the dead. Oh, almost forgot to add the heavy handed reminder that Shane banged Lori and told her and Carl that Rick was dead. Can’t forget that, it might come up later.
Marvel Introducing Free Download Codes For Digital Copies of Print Comics. iPad Smiling!
I like reading me some physical comics, but I also like the idea of toting the motherfuckers around. All at once. Very soon, I’ll be able to marry these two loves in the form of my Ultimate comics.
The CIA Uses Social Media To Track How The World Feels.
Who the fuck needs spies, when you have social media? The CIA uses the various interlacings of our internet lives to track the moods and vibes of the world. Scanning and analyzing data and composing a view of which group of us is about to wile out.
Scientists Have Created ‘Cyborg Yeast’. The Robots Have Invaded Even Our Mead.
Welcome to the future, where we spend our time interfacing with yeast. It isn’t a classy job, but some futurist has got to do it.
THIS WEEK ON Dexter: Just Let Go
I was wrong about this season’s Dexter. If you can draw a thesis from a season of a television show midway through (and I’m not sure you can), then I would argue that it’s not about Faith at all. No sir. That’s the Red Herring. Don’t buy into it. By the end of “Just Let Go”, with Brother Sam dad and Dexter seeing his serial killing brother it became pretty fucking apparent.
This season is about choice of interpretation.
THIS WEEK ON The Walking Dead: Cherokee Rose
We’re greeted this week with a change from the norm. No shitty voice overs, no terrible flashbacks, no cryptic visions of the future. Our survivors converge and unite at casa de Green and hopefully puts an end to the jump cuts we were put through last week. If this recap seems barebones compared to my others, its because nothing happened this episode … NOTHING!! Seriously … if you have a friend who has not seen anything of Walking Dead, get them into the show, and when you expose them to season 2, skip this episode, they won’t know.
AOL Still Has 3.5 Million Dial-Up Users. My Porn Fetishes Are Confused.
The day I got broadband back in 2000 (a term probably now also antiquated) my life was inextricably changed. I began to demand video, porn, music, porn, more porn, and more media at the click of a button. I could never go back. There’s a lot of people on AOL who still have never left.
Video: ‘Skyrim’ Gets A Live-Action Launch Trailer. That’s A Dragon Tail In My Pants. Promise.
This is late, I’m late, the party has already started. I caught this trailer last night during Monday Night Football, and it blew my pants off. Looking it up, it debuted last week. Whoops! I apologize. If you’re a dunderhead like me, you’ll love it. If you’ve already seen it, watch it again.
Hit the jump to check it out.
Lung Regeneration Getting Closer To Being Reality. Smoke Up!
Smoking is fun. It makes you smell great, your teeth shine, and your cool factor goes off the chart. The only problem is that it does a fucking number on your lungs. Soon those of us who suffer from lung ailments either from being super awesome and smoking or from other maladies may be in luck. Lung regeneration? Go!
