Christmas Day: A time for Jews

I love trolling on Christmas day. I used to send out emails to Jewish friends that usually would have some Christmas shit with a message like “May the spirit of our Lord and Saviour enter your heart during this glorious Christmas day,” along with a picture of Christ on the cross with fine print that said “Jews did this.” Usually I wouldn’t get a reply back. Sometimes...

IT Network Tumblr facts: It took Cannot Unsee around 3 months to pick up 1000 followers. Around a month to pick up the next 1000. 3 weeks for the next 1000 etc. etc. I didn’t chart out every day perfectly at the time, but it seems safe to say it averaged somewhere around 20 new followers every single day in the first 5 or so months. I used to think Cannot Unsee had a growth rate that we...

Family Guy: Episode VI Return of the Jedi Luke Skywalker has returned to his home planet of Tatooine in order to— okay, you know what, we don’t care. We were thinking of not even doing this one. Fox made us do it. When we did “Blue Harvest”, they said, “Oh, you guys are crazy.” They tried to talk us out of it, and it ended up making a ton of money. By then we...

Are I a Gamerz writer personman?

Sorry to nerd rage in front of a shitload of followers. You have to understand that I was deeper in the gaming world than the average Joe for awhile. Those Spike VGA’s, yeah I have been a judge. Those sales figures and projections you would read on popular gaming blogs? Yeah, there were many times that I was the dude who did the math behind them. More than that, I know that it is worth...

2 quick points: Time's person of the year

I just want to throw this out there to everyone bitching about Zuckerberg winning Time’s person of the Year contest over Julian Assange. #1. Last year Moot won by votes. Simple enough. #2.
