DOES ERRBODY KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS?!?! It’s Friday, Friday!

March 18, 2011 News 1 Comment

Big shout out to Rebecca Black for making this day possible. The 13 year-old YouTube sensation is variously telling us like it is, supplying the beats to help us get down, and reminding us what days make up the week.

Black’s song about the important life decisions 13 year-olds have to make such as what seat to take in a car was produced and written by Ark Music, who was paid $2000 for the honour. Her 13 million views can likely be ascribed to the very relatable struggle we all face of having to eat cereal out of a bowl.

Jiffy’s Lazy Links: Oh Mario Edition

February 15, 2011 News No Comments

Hey kids, Jiffy here. Last time I checked, Newbs was busy placing stickers on spray-painted piping. I take that to mean the madness continues and I need to fill in again.

Some guy named Aaron Barr worked really hard to infiltrate Anonymous and take down WikiLeaks on behalf of corporate and government interests.

A video game has won a Grammy. The prize went to Christopher Tin’s “Baba Yetu” from Civilization IV.

The newest and greatest blog of user-submitted content is Fat, Ugly or Slutty. The site is dedicated to revealing the ignorance women encounter online. The latest entry as I write this: “bake me a cake cankles.”

The X-Men: First Class trailer is actually pretty cool. We’ll see if the movie will turn out as well June 3, 2011.

Metacritic has compiled a list of the worst games of 2010 by major publishers. Nintendo’s worst was AquaSpace, a WiiWare game I’ve never heard of. Also available are a number of graphs illustrating which “pubs” bring the most “lish” to gaming.

The ridiculousness continues as the team of HuskyStarcraft and KurtHugoSchneider (who now identify their videos under the name of ‘Nerd Alert’) put out yet another Starcraft music video. This one is not a parody, however, but actually written and produced by the group. Terran players, enjoy.

Also, a quick trolling of the comments section has one couple, both avid Starcraft players, promising to play this song at their wedding. Neat.


Who or what is Justin Bieber?

Justin Bieber. JB. Biebz. You’ve watched the parody videos, you’ve seen Twitter drown in his name, you’ve read 4chan tried to send him to North Korea, but you’ve never bothered to look him up on Wikipedia and figure out who he is, or what he is all about.

Well, after years of wondering, and becoming increasingly convinced of my disconnect from the culture of kids today and their pre-teen pseudo-R&B music, I have performed about five minutes of research. I now feel qualified to enlighten you, the rest of the world, on the sensation that is Bieber. Disclaimer: I have yet to sit through one of his music videos.

WORLD OBLITERATING MEGA NEWS: The Beatles catalogue is available on iTunes

November 16, 2010 News No Comments

Well, Apple had promised “Tomorrow is just another day. That you’ll never forget.” and bored members of the media buried in the deepest, jewel encrusted cavern of Steve Jobs’ ass have ensured that to be the case.

The Beatles, you know, that really popular band from like 40 years ago whose music catalogue everyone already owns on every medium created since, have finally allowed their music to be sold over iTunes.

The music is available as singles, albums, and a box set of the whole thing for $149.

CNN spent the day busily tracking early sales, noting that “Here Comes the Sun” entered the iTunes singles chart at number 199 at 11:20 am. Truly, it was crowded news day.
