I am about to post an extremely offensive link. It's not offensive to me, but I know it will be very offensive to many people. Andy Milonakis, of "The Superbowl is Gay" fame, has made something like 70 internet video 'comedy' skits. The thing is, out of 70 attempts at being funny, he is only actually funny about 5 times. However, when he gets it right, he really gets it right. Today I am posting a link to one of his videos that I started watching, said to myself, 'cute', and then closed it long before it was over. This evening I was showing my teenage kids a few select Andy videos and I went ahead and clicked on this video, only this time I let it play to the very end. The final joke in this comedy bit is *soooo* funny I almost hurt myself laughing.

That said, I have to explain some context. I am a radical atheist and have some very strong opinions about how Christianity has been used to inflict pain and guilt on our youth. I won't belabor the point, those of you who know me, and have had theological discussions with me, probably already know this. That said, if you are cynical about Christianity, and how it accosts our youth with images of brutality, you might appreciate the humour in this video. Those of you who are still involved with this religion will almost certainly find it offensive. If you find sacreligious satire offensive, I implore you not to click on this link.

Andy is having another one of his video clips shown on the Jimmy Kimmel show this evening. Andy's current crisis is that he is being hit with a many thousand dollar bill for all of the bandwidth he is using by people downloading his videos off of his website. Literally gigs of bandwidth a day. That's why if I post a link, I try to host it on my own site, since I've got a little bit of disk space to spare.

In this video clip Andy does his normal funny faces as he mouths the words to popular children's songs. Enjoy, or avoid, depending on your sensibilities.

Planetside Screenshots

Image
I realize that this post is going to cause some Web-Wiplash, but I think that is ok. For years I have held onto some old Planetside screenshots that I wanted to post online some day. After scouring an old hard drive yesterday these are the ones I came up with. Still, I know I am missing many of the screenshots I really wanted to keep. Especially ones from when the game was very early in development. I designed the entire client side game engine myself and I had a lot of fun during the development process. One of my regrets is that, in many respects, the final game did not look nearly as visually impressive as it did at certain points during development. There were a number of reasons for this. One was from a technology stand point. Most developers of an MMO game engine might assume it would be reasonable to stream data in as a player moved around the environment. That was certainly my original design. However, once the game got into heavy beta testing there was a strong push to get eve...

Just now who's crazy?

Just a follow-up to yesterday's post about Dr. Steven Greer and his paranoid fantasies. One of Greer's most popular paranoid fantasies is that there is a secret cabal, comprising members of government, industry, and religious leaders, who suffer from eschatological delusions and are co-ordinating a massive world-wide effort to bring about the 'end-times'. Sound's pretty nuts doesn't it? I think so to. I don't buy into paranoid conspiracy theories because they are based, not on evidence but, rather, the *lack* of evidence. Dr. Greer's theories include the idea that 9-11 was actually executed by this secret cabal and that a missile, not an airplane, struck the Pentagon (I guess I should go tell the families of those poor folks who were on the plane that hit the Pentagon about that..) In fact, I find these kinds of bizarre paranoid conspiracy theories dangerous, destructive, and borderline treasonous. The Internet may be a powerful tool to spread truth...
