Rhymes with Varpcon
Posited with "Would you rather skip Christmas or your Birthday?" I expressed an immediate preference for the family-oriented Xmas, to appreciative cooing. "Would you rather skip Christmas or Warpcon" would yield a much less likeable answer I fear. Warpcon really is the shit, and I'm saying that in the throes of a hangover now well into its second day. | | Friday, January 18th, 2008 | | 3:25 am |
No you're ghey!
I never had much time for egyptian mythology, but a wiki excursion after watching the awesomely hilarious Zeitgeist:the movie unearthed this gem: By the Nineteenth dynasty, the previous brief enmity between Set and Horus, in which Horus had ripped off one of Set's testicles, was revitalised as a separate tale. According to Papyrus Chester-Beatty I, Set was considered to have been homosexual and is depicted as trying to prove his dominance by seducing Horus and then having intercourse with him. However, Horus places his hand between his thighs and catches Set's semen, then subsequently throws it in the river, so that he may not be said to have been inseminated by Set. Horus then deliberately spreads his own semen on some lettuce, which was Set's favorite food (the Egyptians thought that lettuce was phallic). After Set has eaten the lettuce, they go to the deities to try to settle the argument over the rule of Egypt. The deities first listen to Set's claim of dominance over Horus, and call his semen forth, but it answers from the river, invalidating his claim. Then, the deities listen to Horus' claim of having dominated Set, and call his semen forth, and it answers from inside Set. [6] In consequence, Horus is declared the ruler of Egypt. And 5000 years later this same verbal war is enacted every night by millions of teenagers playing halo over their headsets. Nothings new, nothings new. | | Thursday, January 17th, 2008 | | 5:02 pm |
Gaelic Aristeia Association
Happened to see the RTE news yesterday, and saw an item on the GAA implementing new rules to combat .. well, to combat combat on the pitch. There's too much fighting, they say blah blah, and they have a fix : The Third Man Rule. In any altercation, there is to be no true harm or real foul until a third player becomes involved. That third man will have the book thrown at him, for bringing the game into disrepute and making the earth a colder and lonelier place. GAA might be like the immaculate abomination lovechild between Fianna Fail and Opus Dei, but hot diggity dog, ya gotta get behind an organisation that says Single Combat between two players on a pitch, two pissheads outside a chipper, Hector and Patroclus, Fionn and Diarmuid, Rock and Stone Cold, Rocky and Drago, Muhammed Ali and Foreman, me and that guy in fourth class, Ryu and Sagat - that this is the good shit and this is what they want in Croke Park for all the apples in Ireland. | | Wednesday, January 16th, 2008 | | 1:28 am |
Fluffed by primary caucuses, I got in line with all the other Sorkinphiles for Charlie Wilson's War and manged to be to be titillated while being administered my cumbersome suppository of morality. | | Monday, January 7th, 2008 | | 12:55 pm |
As usual
Reading an obit for Norman Mailer, I came across this tale for the first time. Norman once got into a heated argument with Gore Vidal, and ended up punching him out. As Mailer stormed/was dragged off, Vidal was helped to his feet, nursing his tender jaw. "Words failed him " he pouted "... as usual". | | Saturday, December 8th, 2007 | | 11:52 pm |

Cuisine du Chapeau
Neil Gaiman is a talentless boor, whose hackery has long stunk of mysticism without revelation. Put a pint in my hand and tell me how much you love Neil Gaimans work, and a happier ranting sot will not be found on gods green earth. And so then I read American Gods five years after the literate populace of Earth. I could try and pretend it is entirely written by his mentor Moore, but it wasn't, so I won't. Instead, it must be admitted the fucker can write - and fucking well. On the brighter side of recalcitration, this means I should go back and give his other opus, Sandman, an exhaustive second chance, and I am optimistic this protracted readathon of utter arse will dull my guilt of unfair dismissal rather entirely.

I have recently taken on a morbid fascination with internet commentary. The lower the level of communication, the more knee jerk the lizardbrain reflex, the more hilarious I find the discourse. Like a psychic granny reading tea leaves, I find the delta of the internet in the top comment on a youtube video. This brief exchange is taken from an imdb thread on the movie Next: CRRRRAAAAAAAAPFEST- this movie is H0RSE5HlT

6.3? people are stupid. *beep* movie. Horrible acting. Moronical cheesecheap wannabepopcorn unwatchable crapfestivalleus opportunity to waste 96 miserable movieenduring longest minutes of your life.
Frustrating. Entertainment for the inbred IQ 69 to 96 that generates box office hits [too lazy to look, how much this desaster grossed, but while I'm sure it wasn't a hit, I'm still sure it made much much more than it should have ]. This movie sucks, soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo baaaaaaaaaad. It really is representative for what is not right with the movie industrie. This is like a current epicenter of CRAP!!!

We live at 88mph
I make like a broken record when it comes to "sci-fi" showing up in the real news, as it does every single week these days and this week I thought it was the story on superpowers jostling for resources emerging from beneath the melting icecaps, but no, it's even more B-list : http://blog.wired.com/defense/2007/08/ht tpwwwnational.html This Buck Rogers doesn't remember falling asleep. What year is it????? No one can explain how the electronics in their pockets work, and the tech news makes me check if its April 1. Brian | | Tuesday, July 24th, 2007 | | 3:45 pm |

Ah Balls.
Brian : Do you what I think is a fairly interesting thought I wish to add to this converstaion? Kev : No, Brian, what is your deep thought that demo's your deep, deep, bottomlessly deep depths. Brian : I think sometimes I like a rainy summers day. It means you don't have to feel bad about farting about watching dvds and playing games. Kev : It think that's a song lyric. Brian : ... Kev: By U2 Brian : Ah. Kev : Ya know, Bono. Brian : Ah Balls. | | Tuesday, June 19th, 2007 | | 3:23 pm |

Uri Geller
Uri Geller was making a racket on the radio demanding a youtube video debunking his spoon-fu be taken down. This has surely had the obvious effect of alerting anyone who was interested that such a video existed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9w7jHYriFoFunny-ha-ha that such a cult-forming charismariachi as Geller would get the public kaybosh by someone equally as engaging. Randi applies his finishing move, borowed from Razor Ramon, The Occams Razors Edge: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlfMsZwr8rcAwesome stuff. Where was this guy when The X Files was rotting every morons brain in the first world? Brian | | Thursday, March 15th, 2007 | | 11:41 am |
Amsterdam accom
I'd make a fruity innuendoperatic suggestive nudge and a wink before cutting to the image, but as I'm too cheap to pay for LJ and I'm just using my profile avatar... The bed on the left was Lee Murphys. The bed on the right was Brian Mulcahys. Whoah-ah! Brian | | Sunday, February 4th, 2007 | | 4:52 pm |
The Koffic
The Bodega's been bought and will be bulldozed in the next 10 days to make room for a shopping mall. A man losing his bar of choice is one thing, but taking his venue for weekend afternoon board games and magic melees and eggs benedict? Friday, then, for the last night at the Bodega.
