‘LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW’ Cosplayer Gets Kicked Out Of PAX East
Jessica Nigri is a cosplayer who was hired to portray the main protagonist of Lollipop Chainsaw at PAX East this past weekend. Nigri ran into some trouble when event officials demanded that she wear something less risque, confusing many a people. What – they asked – is wrong with wearing something so skimpy you can smell vag drift? Nothing! Especially on Easter weekend.

Is “The Hunger Games” the future of writing? I sincerely hope not.
Okay, before I’m set upon by rabid Hunger Games fans dressed in tribute uniforms brandishing axes and knives, let me clarify: we’re talking writing style, not content. I personally didn’t care for Suzanne Collins’ writing style; I get why she wrote the story the way she did, but it did nothing for me. I didn’t finish the first one and I have no desire to read the other two (blasphemy, I know). I tried, but I grew very bored very quickly. Sparse writing like Collins’, in my opinion, is more suited for shorter works.
But some author I’ve never fucking heard of has weighed in and believes this stark, short, quick-punch style is the future of literature for the internet generation. The English major in me is weeping and flipping tables by turns.

Video: WILLIAM GIBSON Interview Touching On Drugs, Politics, Cityscapes
William Gibson predicted the future, and as I type on this keyboard to you across our mass hallucination, I’m only ratifying that claim. Here’s a pretty fucking awesome interview by Alex Pasternack in which he gets Gibson to open up on a variety of things. Gods, I love this man.
Vladimir Putin: Russian Has Microwave Mind Control Zombie Gun. Oh Vladdy
Vladimir Putin isn’t fucking around. You can tell that the Lord Emperor of Russian (and tiger kung-fu dominator) takes the USSR’s loss of the Cold War with a particularly chaffed ass. That leads him to dropping little nougats every once in a while about Russian rockitude. Take for example, the microwave zombie gun.
New York State Removes Sex Offenders From Xbox Live. Sensibility ++
This makes almost too much sense. New York State went out of their way this week to remove registered sex offenders from Xbox Live.
NASA made a 30MB gif of the Texas tornadoes. My browser weeps.
I was at work, rendering a 3D model of the thalamus, when I heard about the Texas tornadoes. Well, to be fair, my co-worker came tripping into my desk and exclaimed, “TORNADOES ARE THROWING 18-WHEELERS IN THE AIR LIKE FUCKING GRADUATION CAPS.” Now that is a statement that buys you ten minutes of my undivided attention.
TWO ‘AVENGERS’ TV SPOTS: Hulk Smashes Shit; Cap Leads
I’m becoming a bit of a workaholic here on my blogging grind. 10:30 on a Friday night. Ain’t drunk. Ain’t laid. Ain’t even reading funny books. Blogging. From my (finger)tip(s) to your gaping maw. Here. Have two new TV spots from Avengers. I can’t wait for this shit, even if the Captain America suit continues to look like a Hot Topic nightmare. I mean, shit! How can we complain when the Hulk is ballin’ out of control.
Video: JAMES CAMERON and National Geographic Create New Animation Of Titanic Sinking
James Cameron loves the fuck out of the Titanic. Sometimes he quietly slips into his little underwater scooter thing, pilots down to the wreckage and makes sweet slow love to his hand. Cameron’s sea cucumber enjoys a moment of spillage, and up, up, up he goes. One of the products of this love is a new animation showing how the beauty sank all those years ago.
Chinese Kid Sells Kidney For iPad; Now Needs His Own Kidney Transplant. Dismal ++
This is some dismal shit right here. A Chinese kid was so desperate to own an iPad and iPhone that he took to the black market and sold a kidney. That itself is a damning comment on commodity culture, but since the duder did so it’s been all down hill.
