You know that commercial for the psp with squirrels saying “I’d hit that!”? I’d like to hit the people who made that. with a sledgehammer. Video game advertising is really annoying me lately. Kinda rough since I’m someone who likes video games. The xbox commercial with the mother talking about them spoiling their supper is just as bad with the freaky mother laugh. Worse actually because I can at least see how the psp promos could be funny. I’m trying to think of one for Nintendo because I’m sure there have been stinkers they’ve done but I can’t think of any right now. The “who are you” and “touching is good” campaigns are the recent ones I can think of and I didn’t pay much attention to them. Anyone else got some annoying video game ads they unfortunately remember?
Hate DRM crap? Yeah, me too. Well I have found the official DRM haters’ website via boingboing. Think I’m gonna put this up on the sidebar.
Picking earwax out of someone’s ear… yeah, I’d say that’s pretty intimate. Does that make this video of it a kind of porno then?

Got the nod from the mortgage company today. Yipee! I get to go into $150k of debt! ^_^
Jason gave me a good laugh so I thought I’d share.
A panel on darknets (private subnetworks hidden from the rest of the internet) got detrailed once a MPAA representative identified herself and became the target of every geek in the room. Her favorite response seemed to be that people who bought dvds entered into contracts. Ha! What contract? I bought a stinkin’ movie!! No reasonable person is going to swallow this contract bullshit.
Someone took some old computer promos and put some funny captions with them.
