Best kept to the professionals

TB writes about his hyphy (?) days…

Back in Northern California we had this little thing called Hyphy. Originally this phrase was just used as an adverb/adjective but somehow it became a “Way of life”.

Hyphy was the name and acting like a bunch of inebriated morons was the game . That was basically the gist of Hyphy, getting drunk and high off primo medicinal ganja while rollin’ on E pills (sigh… it was fun while it lasted). But one of the weirdest things to ever be conceived from this craziness was call ghost riding. You would turn your speakers up, put your car in drive and then jump out of your still moving vehicle and dance alongside it while still moving (or you could dance on top of your car… as long as you get back in the car before it crashes into something). So I guess it’s supposed to reenact a ghost mysteriously riding in your car. Continue reading

YEA! What he said!

No, TB has no intention of doing jury duty….

This is the coolest thing ever. I’ve wanted to write back saying something similar to this for the longest time and someone beat me to it. I’m sure he isn’t the only one. Can you get in trouble for this? Or would it fall under freedom of speech?

Dude… is it THAT hard?

ThabOOger on Wolverine. WARNING: Spoilers after the jump!

I’m about to sound like the biggest nerd ever. So here it goes. NERDS ASSEMBLE!!!

Now it’s not like I expected the Wolverine movie to stay true to the comics. Hell, none of the recent comic book movies stayed true to the original story but I did expect X-Men Origins: Wolverine to at least TRY to keep things accurate. But how they managed to TOTALLY turn one of the most popular/interesting superheroes in the Marvel Universe into a total prop is beyond me.

First of all I think the X-Men movies could take a few pointers from Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and the recent “Nolanized” versions of the Batman Franchise. People want to feel emotionally connected with the main characters. They want to be able to relate to his/her in whatever way they can. Yes, I understand that they are not going to be able to relate to having super powers, (“OMG I totally hate it when I’m trying to wash my hands and my claws end up cutting the sink in half.”) but could we please have some deep emotion besides anger? Maybe regret? Or maybe a little guilt/shame thrown in there? I also think in order to have said emotions you would need good acting? Continue reading

TB takes a swing at the swine flu…

I’m guessing this could be a hoax but I don’t want to be hasty with my assumptions. The last thing I want to do is call something a hoax while there’s some old lady or kid dying in the hospital from it (supposedly the two groups most susceptible to this virus are the elderly and children) . Although something about this seems very fishy. Bush had the bird flu and terrorists. Now Obama has the swine flu and the economy… oh yea, and pirates.

While searching the internet as well as YouTube for answers and theories I came across this video.

Finally… we are safe

Regular TB on crime-fighting? Honestly, I have no idea. This kid comes up with the most random topics ever. -PG

If you ever thought of doing the ultimate crime spree I beg you to reconsider. There are those amongst us who will not let crime go unpunished. We even have our own website where you can register yourself to join the elite fighting forces of the world to end corruption and to bring peace to this godforsaken planet of despair.

One enemy of evil is a 21 yr old man that goes by the alias Shadow Hare. He patrols the streets of Cincinnati fighting crime and helping people in need. He knows the harsh realities of life and the streets all too well as he was abused as a child and suffers from a dislocated shoulder protecting a lady from a mugger. He has a group of fellow crime fighters that help him in his crime fighting efforts called The Allegiance of Heroes.

“ALLEGIANCE ASSEMBLE!” Continue reading

Just… Pathetic.

TB unleashes his dark and fiery side…Hella!

When I was in California me and a buddy used to listen to this show on the radio called Coast to Coast. It’s hosted weekdays by George Norry and weekends by Art Bell. This show is full of crazy stuff with open lines for callers to give their two cents and personal stories about ghosts and aliens and UFOs (with the occasional conspiracy theories). It starts at 10 PM and ends around 2PM (although sometimes it goes on till 3:30 depending on how interesting the topics are).

Anyway, so one night we were sitting at the local park eating Taco Bell (what we affectionately call the G-Spot) and host Art Bell started talking about how he had a guest on the show that was going to talk about hell. We got totally excited because we both had grown up in religious households and for us, discussions of the supernatural were akin to camp fire tales from Nickelodeon’s Are You Afraid of the Dark.

WOW that’s expensive…

moneyTB on going back to school…

So I went to Montgomery County Community College or Mont. Co. and signed up for a history class. It ended up setting me back around $340 dollars. Is this normal over here? Supposedly the fee is $100 per credit or something like that. Maybe less not too sure. Back in California the tuition for the Community College I went to was $13 per credit… MAJOR leap in tuition I must say.

(At least the placement tests went well. I was surprised I did so well on my Math and English considering I haven’t been in school since I was 21… So now I get to skip 2 Math courses and 2 English courses.)

And another question to all the PA/Philly residents or East Coast people in general. When I sign up for a transfer program to a university do I get considered before other students? Or is that just wishful thinking? And if I keep my grades up will I get a scholarship for sure? Or is that a maybe?

It sucks being out of school for so long. But feels great being back.

Thanks a lot, b*tch…

PG regular ThabOOger on why every Californian should be ashamed of Ms. Cali…

Wow. I really hope the contestants in the Miss America pageant aren’t thought of as the official voice of the states they represent.

Thanks for making California look like a bunch of homophobic gay bashing assholes. I’m happy she lost. Not only was she a typical blond Barbie doll clone (no offense but I think California could have done better than this) but her answer was the total opposite of everything Californians are fighting for. Yes we do have out fair share of conservatives but we have way more liberals. Iowa? Seriously? My hats off to you and Vermont.

California?… California?… California?… Bueller?… hmm guess not.

On a lighter note, HAPPY 4/20 to America and the whole world! May all your dreams become legalized!

Zombie Attack!!!

Guest blogger TB on why punching someone in the face is always the best response – to anything:

Woody Harrelson has to be one of my favorite actors in the world. Not only is he a huge advocate for marijuana legalization but he has starred in some of my favorite movies such as White Men Can’t Jump, Natural Born Killers and No Country for Old Men (there’s more but these are the main ones). There is always some sort of controversy surrounding this guy and his anger problems but his latest debacle tops the charts.

So imagine you’re a paparazzo who learns that Woody Harrelson and his daughter will be at a New York airport on a Wednesday night. You grab all your sh*t and head over there to take a few pictures only to get hit in the face and have your camera smashed into pieces. That’s awesome. I’m all for celebrities beating up paparazzi especially in crowded areas so everyone can watch a beat down. I would have to have a bunch of flashes in my face everywhere I go. I mean seriously think about it. You are bound to get a seizure in no time. And when you’re on the ground spazzing out they’re just gonna keep taking pictures. So you might as well just end it right at the beginning and avoid the bullsh*t. Continue reading

I love my friends and family

Guest blogger TB on partying hearty with PG….

I have the best family and friends here in PA.

Back in Cali I could drink bottle after bottle of hard liquor and still be able to walk a straight line. Since I moved to the East Coast my drunk times have been cut back drastically. But like a dumbass I thought I could still drink like a champ. BIG MISTAKE!

The other night I went out with a bunch of friends for a night of drinks and good times. For some stupid reason I thought it would be a good idea to bring a water bottle full of vodka thinking everyone would take turns taking swigs. Well, no one wanted any so I ended up drinking it all. I didn’t think it would be a problem since I was so used to getting tore up every day back home. We left the Cactus after dinner and by this time I was one water bottle full of vodka and three Yuenglings deep. And we headed to Manayunk Brewery.

That’s when things started getting a little… blurry. I had 100 dollars in my wallet which magically disappeared. I remember ordering drinks but I have no idea if I paid for them or not. Maybe I did since I had no more money left when I woke up. My phone was broken and I have a huge scrape on my knee. Turns out I couldn’t remember anything that happened after we left the Manayunk Brewery. Supposedly a friend of mine helped me half way to my cousin’s car and another friend helped me the other half. Can’t say I remember any of that. And the knee? Well I was told I was running all over the street and I fell. Continue reading
