Pokemon Black and White Update
Well, this is the most recent news, the three new starter Pokemon and the female and male protagonists of Black and White have been revealed (The brunettes are the new guys) as well as some of the region maps.
Well, faggotty designs for the Pokemon as expected (fucking otters and fire pigs?!), however I like how the character designs a lot more than Diamond and Pearl.
Anyway, feel free to rage, or squee or…whatever.

From: Pepe Capel <pepecapel@gmail.com>
i think you are an asshole. why in the world would i advertise your shitty site? sincerely yours, fuck off adam selvidge!!
From: Tiki God
You think I’m an asshole? You emailed me, you cockless piece of shit, and you apparently tried to get me to advertise on your shitty tumble blog, which looks like a four year old retarded monkey put together. What kind of cunt kicking piece of shit do you think I am?
You can take your “successful blog” that you don’t actually own any bit of (oh look at that, it’s actually hosted by tumblr) and shove it up your disease riddled ass hole.
UPDATE: He apologized! Is still a dick!

i’ll save it for my lawyers, an email account contains personal and private mail that you can’t publish without my content, even if you are the person i emailed.
www.citmedialaw.org/legal-guide/publishing-personal-and-private-informationps: delete all my info out of your blog NOW
ps2: any other actions against my facebook account, tumblr account, gmail account or any other account will have legal consequences
ps3: i emailed you, but you started this war with your “why in the world woudl I want to advertise on your site?”. Why in the world? I would prefer just a fucking NO THANKS. stop it, please.
From: Tiki God
aw, go suck a dick, you piece of dick cheese. you want to initiate
contact with me and insult me and then get sand all up in your vag
when you’re called out on it?
Your email isn’t private you stupid shit. Take all the legal
consequences you want, but seeing as you don’t appear to be able to
set up a site on your own, and have to resort to using a third party
service, I have doubts that you would even known how to find a lawyer
in the yellow pages. You chose to publish your email on facebook,
just like you chose to publish it for google to see. And then you
chose to email someone demanding money, as if we had a prior
established relationship. Well fuck that, and fuck you.
Once I get a summons or order from a judge I’ll take your “info” down.
Or maybe you can apologize about being a douche. You’ll notice that
I was never rude to you, until you started flinging around highschool
insults that had me quaking in my socks (yeah bitch, I don’t wear
shoes.)
In fact, I’m going to CC my legal team on this, if/when you decide to
press charges for your hurt feelings, feel free to email them too.

The Irish Can Drink
An American on vacation in Ireland walks into the pub. He says, “Alright, I hear you Irish can drink. I’ve got five hundred dollars here that says no one can drink ten pints of Guinness in a row.”
The bar falls silent. The band stops. Everyone just stares. One guy even gets up and leaves.
The American says, “oh well” and takes a seat at the bar and orders a drink.
A few minutes later, the guy returns and asks, “Hey mister, is that money still on the table?”
“Well sure it is” he replies.
The bartender pours out ten pints, and the man proceeds to drink them one after the other.
When he’s done, the American says, “Well, I’m a man of my word, so here’s your money. But I gotta ask, where did you go?”
He says: “I had to go to the pub down the street to see if I could do it first!”

desperate lieutenant
The new lieutenant arrived at the Foreign Legion camp in the desert and after settling in inspected his men and whatever. But after a few weeks in the desert the lieutenant was getting a little desperate for companionship and asked the sarge, “What do we do way out here when we… uh… you know… when we need to get a little relief?” The sarge looked at him and said “Oh.. relief… sure… well, we have this camel tied out back of the big tent and …” and the lieutenant interrupted “Say no more, Sarge… I know what to do” and proceeded to go out back behind the tent and have his way with the camel tied there.
After a few minutes a crowd began to form and the lieutenant looked up and asked the men what they were staring at. “Isn’t this how it’s done?” he asked. The sarge looked at him and said “Well, no… usually the men just ride the camel into town where the women are”.

A blind man walks into a bar and orders a pint. While the bartender is pouring it he says, “Want to hear a joke?” and she says, “OK.”
He starts: “So there’s this blonde…”
“Okay, hold on” says the bartender. “I can see you’re blind so I’m gonna do you a favour here. Just so you know, I’m a blonde. The manager is a blonde. The bouncer is a blonde, and there’s a good friend of mine by the window there, she’s a black belt in karate, she’s a blonde too. There’s a couple of biker chicks at a table nearby, both blondes.
“So, you just have a think about that and ask yourself: do you really want to tell that joke?”
She gives him his drink. “Well, uh, I guess not,” he says. “I don’t wanna have to explain it six times.”

A man was at a bar….
A man was at a bar one night and saw a beautiful redhead sitting in the booth opposite him. After about 5 minutes, he got up the guts to go talk to her. Just as he sat down, she sneezed and her glass eye flew out from her socket.
On reflex, the guy shot out his arm and caught her eye and gave it back to her. They started talking and the redhead invited the man to go to a movie with her, then go back to her place for a nightcap. In the morning, she cooked him a big breakfast of bacon and eggs and the man said, “Why are you being incredibly nice to me? Is this the way you treat all men who start talking to you?”
The redhead replied, “No, you just happened to catch my eye!”
Declined posts
Those of you that are MCS+ will notice that there’s a new link in the MCS+ section: “Trashed Posts”. That’s where declined posts will show up for 30 days and then shuffle off into the nothingness of the internets.
For those of you that do not have mcs+, if you’re the author, I believe that these posts may show up on the “your submissions” page. I’ve started to comment on why the posts were declined, normally it’s for watermarks, size issues or illegal file name characters.

MALPRACTICE
For the past couple months I’ve been looking to get into the movie business. I want to be a director and come up with original films. I was going to direct a short Star Wars fan-film, but then I realized getting the costumes and props is going to be a bitch.
Based on the Dr. Kenzo image I took the other day, it looks like I may end up making a horror film first, an original story a friend and I are coming up with.
This will be tons cheaper to film and easier to set up, which means we can get working on it a lot sooner.
I made this mock-up poster, and with that image alone, we’re fleshing out the story and we have tons of ideas already. My cousin saw the poster and he’s recommending me to a friend of his in Hollywood who is working as DA on a Jerry Bruckheimer film!

Hops
HOPS IN BEER
By Paul D. Knight
The use of hops in beer most likely began when some ancient cave brewer, in an effort to gain a competitive edge, started experimenting with “additives” to his product. The hops grew wild, as did the brewer, the barley and the yeast. Some degree of variability in the product was no doubt acceptable.
The use of hops probably started before recorded history. It is known that the Babylon and Egyptian people used hops and other aro-matic and spicy plants to improve the palatability of their brewing efforts.
Germans are often identified with hops and beer, but from a historical perspective, this is of recent practice. The first documented evidence of hop yards in Germany dates back to the year 736, to a monastery in Bavaria.
The early brewers, especially those on the cutting edge of technology, discovered that the beer containing hops had better keeping qualities than their unhopped products. The practice then began of adding greater quantities of hops to beer depending on the season of year and expected storage time. More hops equaled greater storage life. The reason for this was not known and not important; the results were important.
Hop production in America followed closely the settlement of the first colonies in the New England areas. Early American brewers used wild hops, but the cultivation of hops in the old world had progressed to “industry status” and soon moved to the new world. After growing hops in New England and Virginia, the center of hop production moved to New York State by the middle 1800s. Problems with powdery mildew practically wiped out the production of hops in New York about 1909. The region revived again around 1920 with the discovery of sulfur-based fungicides only to be devastated again in the late 1920s by downy mildew.
Starting about 1850 the hop industry in the Western states of Washington, Oregon and California began to develop and eventually became one of the major regions of the world. In recent years, California and Western Washington hop production has ceased. Oregon and Idaho still account for 25-30% of U.S. production while the Yakima Valley of Washington totals 70-75%. The total U.S. production accounts for nearly 30% of the world hop crop.
Brewers no longer rely on the antiseptic properties of hops for microbiological control and, in general, the modern consumer prefers a lighter and lesser hopped beer. The growing and processing of hops has become a highly scientific endeavor as has the brewing of beer. Hop usage in beer is deeply ingrained and is considered one of the more vital ingredients. Beer without hops is unthinkable. Or, for that matter, so are hops without beer!

How far do our electromagnetic (EM) signals reach in to outer space? lets estimate that we started transmitting EM signals with the first radios about 100 years ago… which means we have been sending weak signals in every direction for 100 years, and the first signals have reached a maximal distance of 100 light years away from earth! there are about 130 stars within a radius of 20 light years from us and probably several thousand stars within 100 light years.

A Scotsman, Englishman and Irishman are caught drunk out of their skulls in Saudi Arabia
A Scotsman, Englishman and Irishman are caught drunk out of their skulls in Saudi Arabia and are dragged before the Sultan. Angrily the Sultan tells them
“Although the penalty is usually death for such a heinous act, today is a day of the celeration of honesty so I will spare your lives. Instead I will give you 20 lashes from our most horrible whip. Yet I still feel sympathy for you on this holy day so I will give you each one item to strap to your back.”
The Irishman thinks about it and chooses a pillow. They lead him to the post, tie a pillow to his back and start whipping away. After 5 whips the pillow bursts and the Irishman takes 15 whips on his back. He returns to the men crying his eyes out and begging them to choose wisely.
The Englishman steps forward and chooses the lid from a barrel. Again he's led away and has it tied to his back. 10 whips in the barrel lid smashes and he receives 10 whips to his back. He returns to the Scotsman and wipes the tears from his eyes, begging his friend to choose better.
The Scotsman steps forward to the Sultan and says “Oh mighty Sultan, as today is a day of honesty I have to tell the truth. I drank the most out of all of my friends and it was my idea to drink in this country. It is I who should receive the most whips.”
The Sultan smiles and says “My friend this is truly a moment of heroic proportions from you. I will however have to increase your punishment to 100 lashes from the whip. I will still let you choose something to be tied to your back however”
“Thank you Sultan, I choose the Englishman”

preganent blonde
A blonde came running up to her husband in the driveway as he came home from work just jumping for joy. He didn’t know why she was jumping for joy but thought, what the fuck, and started jumping up and down with her. She said, “Honey, I have some really great news for you!” He said, “Great, tell me what you’re so happy about!” She stopped jumping and was breathing heavily from all the jumping up and down, when she told him that she was pregnant! He kissed her and told her, “That’s great! I couldn’t be happier!” Then, she said, “Oh, honey, there’s more!” He asked, “What do you mean, ‘more?’” She said, “Well, we are not having just one baby, we are going to have TWINS!” Amazed at how she could know so soon after getting pregnant, he asked her how she knew. She said, “Well, that was the easy part. I went to Wal-Mart and bought the TWIN PACK home pregnancy test kit and BOTH tests came out positive!!”

Stranded
One day an Irishman, who had been stranded on a deserted island for over 10 years, saw a speck on the horizon.
He thought to himself, “It’s certainly not a ship
As the speck got closer and closer, he began to rule out even the possibilities of a small boat or a raft.
Suddenly there strode from the surf a figure clad in a black wet suit. Putting aside the scuba tanks and mask and zipping down the top of the wet suit stood a drop-dead gorgeous blonde!
She walked up to the stunned Irishman and said to him, “Tell me, how long has it been since you’ve had a good cigar?”
“Ten years,” replied the amazed Irishman
With that, she reached over and unzipped a waterproof pocket on the left sleeve of her wet suit and pulled out a fresh package of cigars and a lighter.
He took a cigar, slowly lit it, and took a long drag. “Faith and begorrah,” said the castaway, “that is so good! I’d almost forgotten how great a smoke can be!”
“And how long has it been since you’ve had a drop of good Bushmill’s Irish Whiskey?” asked the blonde.
Trembling, the castaway replied, “Ten years.”
Hearing that, the blonde reached over to her right sleeve, unzipped a pocket there and removed a flask and handed it to him.
He opened the flask and took a long drink. ” ‘Tis nectar of the gods!” shouted the Irishman. ” ‘Tis truly fantastic!!!”
At this point the gorgeous blonde started to slowly unzip the long front of her wet suit, right down the middle. She looked at the trembling man and asked, “And how long has it been since you played around?”
With tears in his eyes, the Irishman fell to his knees and sobbed, “Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Don’t tell me that you’ve got golf clubs in there too!”

Stud Rooster
A farmer went out one day and bought a brand new Stud rooster for his chicken coop. The new Rooster struts over to the old rooster and Says,’OK old fart; Time for you to Retire
The old rooster replies, ‘Come on, surely you cannot
handle ALL of these Chickens. Look what it has done to me. Can’t you just let me have the two old hens Over in the corner?’
The young rooster Says, ‘Beat it: You are washed Up And I am taking Over.’
The old Rooster says, ‘I tell you what, young Stud. I will race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets the exclusive domain over the entire chicken Coop.’
The young rooster Laughs. ‘You know you don’t Stand a chance, old man. So, just to be Fair, I will give you a head Start.’
The old rooster takes Off running. About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off running after him.
They round the front porch of the Farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap.
He is only about 5 feet Behind the old rooster and gaining fast!
The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting in his usual spot on the front porch when he sees the roosters running by. The Old Rooster is Squawking and running as hard as He can.
The Farmer grabs his shotgun And – BOOM – He blows the Young rooster to bits. The farmer sadly shakes his head and Says, Dammit…Third gay rooster I bought
this Month.’

Hesiodus Sunrise Ray
Explanation: Stark shadows of mountains and crater walls stand out along the lunar terminator, or shadow line between night and day, in this telescopic image. Of course, if viewed from the lunar surface near the terminator line, the Sun would be rising and still close to the lunar horizon. But the picture’s inset at the left highlights a more elusive lunar sunrise phenomenon. Streaming through a gap in the eastern wall of 45 kilometer wide Hesiodus crater, the low-angle sunlight produces a long sunrise ray playing along the otherwise shadowed crater floor. Sunrise rays are short-lived and can be rewarding to spot for Moon enthusiasts with telescopes. Seen in Hesiodus and other craters, the ray timing can be calculated based on the observer’s location. This picture of a first quarter Moon was recorded at 23:45 UT on February 22nd from Stuttgart, Germany. In the inset, the larger crater Pitatus is at the right. For location, Hesiodus and Pitatus are circled at the bottom of the picture.

No sex since 1955
A crusty old Marine Sergeant Major found himself at a gala event hosted by a local liberal arts college. There was no shortage of extremely young idealistic liberal ladies in attendance, one of whom approached the Sergeant Major for conversation.
“Excuse me, Sergeant Major, but you seem to be a very serious man.. Is something bothering you?”
“Negative, ma'am. Just serious by nature.”
The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, “It looks like you have seen a lot of action.”
“Yes, ma'am, a lot of action.”
The young lady, tiring of trying to start up a conversation, said, “You know, you should lighten up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself.”
The Sergeant Major just stared at her in his serious manner. Finally the young lady said, “You know, I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but when was the last time you had sex?”
“1955, ma'am.”
“Well, there you are. No wonder you're so serious. You really need to chill out and relax! I mean, no sex since 1955! Come with me.”
She took his hand and led him to a private room where she proceeded to “relax” him several times.
Afterwards, panting for breath, she leaned against his grizzled bare chest and said, “Wow, you sure didn't forget much since 1955.”
The Sergeant Major said in his serious voice, after glancing at his watch, “I hope not; it's only 2130 now.”

The farting drunk
A drunk walks into a bar and says to the bartender, I can fart the star spangled banner in any key you want, for a drink. The bartender says, you can fart the national anthem in any key? Hell, I will give you three drinks for that! The drunk says, ok, what key? The bartender says how about “G”? Ok, So the drunk makes two people move from their stools and gets up on the bar, drops his pants around his ankles and bends over. He gets red faced and then shits all over the bar and the floor. The bartender is pissed! He goes, what the hell you son of a bitch? The drunk goes, gimme a break, even the great Frank Sinatra had to clear his throat before he performed!

paper cut
Butterflies Trying to Escape Their Shadow, 2005
Acid-free A4 80 gsm paper and glue
About my paper works
My paper works have been based around an exploration of the relationship between two and three dimensionality. I find this materialization of a flat piece of paper into a 3D form almost a magic process – or maybe one could call it obvious magic, because the process is obvious and the figures still stick to their origin, without the possibility of escaping. In that sense there is also an aspect of something tragic in most of the cuts. Some of the small paper cuts relate to a universe of fairy tales and romanticism, as for instance Impenetrable Castle inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale The Steadfast Tin Soldier, in which a tin soldier falls in love with a paper ballerina, living in a paper castle. Other paper cuts are small dramas in which small figures are lost within and threatened by the huge powerful nature. Others again are turning the inside out, or letting the front and the back of the paper meet – dealing with impossibility, illusions, and reflections.
I find the A4 sheet of paper interesting to work with, because it is probably the most common and consumed media and format for carrying information today, and in that sense it is something very loaded. This means that we rarely notice the actual materiality of the A4 paper. By removing all the information and starting from scratch using the blank white 80gsm A4 paper as a base for my creations, I feel that I have found a material which we all are able to relate to, and at the same time is non-loaded and neutral and therefore easier to fill with different meanings. The thin white paper also gives the paper sculptures a fragility which underlines the tragic and romantic theme of the works.

Peter Graves Dead At 83
Television and movie star Peter Graves died at his home of an apparent heart attack yesterday at the age of 83.
Graves had just returned from brunch with his wife and kids and collapsed before he made it into the house, Brokaw said. One of his daughters administered CPR but was unable to revive him. Graves’ family doctor visited the house and believed he had a heart attack…
Of course he was great in the Airplane! movies, but my favorite character is James Phelps in the original Mission: Impossible.

Can cold water clean dishes?
This is for all the germ conscious folks that worry about using cold water to clean.
John went to visit his 90 year old grandfather in a very secluded, rural area of Saskatchewan
After spending a great evening chatting the night away, the next morning John’s grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast. However, John noticed a film like substance on his plate, and questioned his grandfather asking, ‘Are these plates clean?’
His grandfather replied, ‘They’re as clean as cold water can get em. Just you go ahead and finish your meal, Sonny!’
For lunch the old man made hamburgers. Again, John was concerned about the plates, as his appeared to have tiny specks around the edge that looked like dried egg and asked, ‘Are you sure these plates are clean?’
Without looking up the old man said, ‘I told you before, Sonny, those dishes are as clean as cold water can get them. Now don’t you fret, I don’t want to hear another word about it!’
Later that afternoon, John was on his way to a nearby town and as he was leaving, his grandfather’s dog started to growl, and wouldn’t let him pass.
John yelled and said, ‘Grandfather, your dog won’t let me get to my car’.
Without diverting his attention from the football game he was watching on TV, the old man shouted! ‘Coldwater, go lay down now, yah hear me!’
