Ban the one above you.

Posted by Enkill_Eridos on November 14, 2009

This is a game that I have seen in forums and this is how it works. One person starts off and the next “bans that person.” Now let me give an example.

P:Banned for liking pork.
E_E: Banned for being able to afford L4D2

There are some simple rules….don’t bring your debates here. This is posted as comical relief. If any debates start that comment will be deleted. Don’t say you have a post awaiting moderation in another post. Keep it in that post please. Try not to be racist, like Banned for being a Jew or Banned for being a n*****. Will not be permitted and if you are a contributor I will take away your privileges for a week. This is a game and supposed to be in the spirit of fun.

Liberal bloggers are accusing Fox News of launching an Internet war against them in a campaign to selectively remove Fox clips from YouTube.On Wednesday, YouTube shut down the popular News1News channel, which featured news clips that many progressive bloggers and news sites would add to their stories. On the rare occasion, Raw Story also embedded News1News clips in stories having to do with media coverage. The channel provided clips from all news networks, but often focused on Fox’s controversial commentators. Read the rest of this entry »

The North American Union, a disturbing and funny Conspiracy Theory of the 21st century

Posted by Enkill_Eridos on November 14, 2009

nauflag

The North American Union conspiracy theory has been around for quite sometime. It was something started in 2003. There was a supposed NAFTA corridor that was basically a interstate going from Central America to the Yukon. Several members of congress have said that this report is not based in fact. I need to note that this was in a news report dated 2003. Now this had to be based on something, it was based on a man who stated that America needed to cooperate more with the governments of North America.

Water on the Moon!

Posted by Enkill_Eridos on November 14, 2009

Today there was a different Google Icon. Each Google Icon has a news worthy story so I clicked on it and this is what I found.

Splash! NASA moon crash struck lots of water

By ALICIA CHANG (AP) – 1 hour ago

LOS ANGELES — The lunar dud for space enthusiasts has become a watershed event for NASA.

Spacecraft that crashed into the moon last month kicked up a relatively small plume. But scientists have confirmed the debris contained water — 25 gallons of it — making lunar exploration exciting again.

More movie musings

Posted by 1minionsopinion on November 13, 2009

I like movies, okay?

I don’t follow a lot of Twitter users, but I did click @SciFiHeaven which has turned out to be a good idea. Through that I found Wired’s article featuring Sci-fi movies of the 1960s and ’70s.

While I can’t say I’ve seen them all, I do have fond memories of Barbarella. I should watch that again. Duran Duran got the name for their band off that movie.

I recently saw A Clockwork Orange for the first time. It was an eye opener, and no mistake.

THX1138 was interesting, but I haven’t bothered watching it again. It’s interesting to note that Lucas has mentioned 1138 in every one of the movies he’s done since, though.

The Omega Man was cruddy compared to the original I Am Legend but better than the Will Smith version.

Dim recollections of watching The Andromeda Strain while on an a Michael Chricton kick. Probably worth another viewing.

The Stepford Wives impressed me when I watched it. I’d never watch the remake.

And Death Race 2000 was full of hilarious gore and pointless plot.

Others I’ve heard of but never seen, like Westworld and Fantastic Planet. I wonder if Flesh Gordon really is as good as it looks.

What movies would you put on the list as worthwhile futuristic/science fic time wasters?
