Overnight Open Thread-Temp Tuesday Edition [CDR M]

Evenin' morons (I denounce myself for droppin' my g's)! I'm fillin' in for Maet since he's "workin'" in Germany for the next week or so. Like he's foolin' us. We all know it's Oktoberfest. Tune in tomorrow night for Maet's latest pic from Germany!

So does anyone actually believe this? White House Now Clearly Against Deeper Defense Cuts. Ha, yeah right. This is clearly a ploy by Obama to say he's really supporting the military while his minions do the dirty work of making those huge cuts. And if he really wanted this, I doubt Reid and Pelosi will listen to him. They've got their own agenda. It's not like they jumped on the jobs bill.

Hey PETA, Check This Out

This pisses me off to no end. Sculptor Who Killed Dog Set To Make San Francisco Central Subway Art.

A Brooklyn artist who once shot and killed a dog and called it art has landed a coveted $750,000 city art contract for the Central Subway.

Music Video

This little music video is actually better than most feature length movies these days.

Is This Bad?

What? You can't do this? Woman Sues Over 'Mini-Skirt Monday's'.

Trudy Nycole Anderson has accused her former employer Derek Wright of sexual harassment, including attempting to enforce a dress code that included “miniskirt Mondays,” “tube top Tuesdays,” “wet T-shirt Wednesdays,” “no bra Thursdays,” and “bikini top Fridays.” (Apparently, his alliterative skills tapered off as the week went on.)

Best Recruiting Video Evah

This is so good. I hate the Navy's latest one. You know, the Global Force For Good one. Semper Fi.

Ace? Is That You?

Heh. Dad Photoshops Family Trip Photos To Convince His Kids Ewoks Exist. I suppose it could've been worse. Like with unicorns poopin' skittles or something.

Starcraft

After reading 5 Insane True Facts About Starcraft: The Professional Sport I've come to the conclusion I'm in the wrong profession.

Yeah, the U.S. has pro gaming circuits, sure. The Koreans have 12 professional StarCraft teams with top players making fat six-figure salaries. Even the average pro gamer makes more than the average Korean.

Not only do Korean pro gamers rake in the dough, but also national attention. 120,000 people gathered live in a stadium to watch a 2005 StarCraft championship--over 40K more than attended the Super Bowl that year.

Red Dawn Remake

Well, it looks like the Red Dawn remake is finally gonna come out in 2012 according to the LA Times. I guess having to change the baddies to NORKS is taking a bit longer. I'm still gonna see it based on the script I read but they really should've left it as the Chinese. They waited so long on this movie that one of the leads, Chris Hemsworth, who was an unknown at the time, has gone on to become an action hero in Thor.

I leave you with this short film titled Carboard Warfare 2. Not bad, not bad at all.
