Matt Fraction and the curious case of being awesome. [Avarita #4 Edition]
I finally, finally, finally gave Casanova: Avarita my first complete read through last night. It’s some delicious hypertextual insanity, at times sacrificing coherence and character development for kinetics out the fucking ass. That’s fine with me. It does some really interesting things, especially when it gets metatextual. Sometimes the ponderings are centered around the act of creation, and sometimes the ponderings take such a form as the image above. It’s the sort of effervescent insanity that Fraction has to staple down for the most part in his Marvel marvelings, which is unfortunate because it is here where he really hits his stride. He’s been able to channel it in the (sadly nixed) Defenders, and I’m anticipating his collaboration with Allred on FF will continue in such a spirit.

‘BILL & TED 3’ totally happening, with ‘GALAXY QUEST’ director helming. Gnarly. Righteous.
C’mon! I can’t be the only one who is excited that Bill & Ted 3 is happening. Especially since they’ve tacked on a pretty gnartacular director on to helm the antiquated son of a bitch.
Google to punish pirate sites in search results. The future recoils, aghast.
Getting harder and hard to pirate that copy of Flo Rida’s latest single. Demonoid is down, and now Google is punishing pirate sites in their search results. I just want to Flo, shit! How can one Flo in this day and age? Buy it? Kiss my ass!
Cosplay: FEMALE VENOM is liquid latex pants explosion. I objectify, but I swear I’m deec.
Shit. I keep forgetting to put this armada of pants-breaking Venom cosplay. Mayhaps it is because every time I take a look at it, my loins begin to thrash. I have to attend to rituals. Offer supplications. Seriously though, this is amazing. Keep Reading »
Demand the last ‘GAME OF THRONES’ S2 recap from Budrickton. Do it!
Look at this sad ass shit. You know what’s been sitting in drafts for like, two months? Budrickton’s final Game of Thrones recap. I was perusing the OL back channels today when I came across it, and I was like four seconds from deleting it. Then I thought to myself, I will take it to the people. We all know how funky fresh his other recaps were, don’t we? So I implore you folk. The good denizens of OL. Help me guilt Budrickton into generating this final S2 wunder-fest. It’s not the recap we deserve, it’s the recap we need.
Researches creating ‘Hell Cell’ microbe that can survive on Mars. Careful guys, gosh!
Let us create a microbe that can survive on Mars! Yeah! Pay no mind to it evolving, generating a corpus, and plotting our doom. Such is the plot of this science-fiction nonsense made reality. What is next, soda foundations? Talking dogs? Jesus Christ.

Shane Butcher is pushing his chips into the center of the fucking table. Dude is cashing out, selling his entire existence on eBay. Everything must go, from kayaks to a chain of gaming stores. Anyone want to pool our money and buy this dude’s American Dream?
Video: Call Me Maybe – Carly Rae Jepsen (Chatroulette Version)
Yeah, all the various iterations of Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” making their way around the internet have blown my mind with angst. However, I can’t help but get behind one that combines Chatroulette and cross-dressing. Also, shout out to all the bro-dudes who go from so eager to stroke it to genuinely amused. I appreciate the tonal shift.
First Look: Russell Crowe in Aronofsky’s ‘NOAH’, dude looks rough. Like Russell Crowe.
The world has been given a first look of Russell Crowe as Noah, and the dude looks about the same. About! The same.
Cosplay: Kasumi from ‘MASS EFFECT’ thieves me with a body hugging outfit.
What’s going on, Kasumi? You seem to be pretty flagrant in your behavior right now, for a thief. Get out of the sun! Get moving. Jeepers.
