Set, Match, Run

Wow, sorry for the delay. Not that it matters, I'm sure. I've been caught up in the weekend and I have no excuse really, since this comic was initially the first one that inspired the series and was already prepped for posting a month ago. But yeah, every person I focus on when I am angry usually is provided with their own special, yet simple death. Ben dawned the realization on me that it simply is just too easy to kill someone  who is into kinky sex. Man, there are so many ways to even make it look like an accident. Hehe.

Other than working and socializing, I have recently joined the Lost bandwagon. A week's worth of television and I've yet to finish all damn four seasons. A great show nonetheless, I even sacrificed my habitual daily show/colbert report this past week since I was so addicted to the plotline.

Fighting Fire With Water

I don't want to come off as a sexist bitch, however, I am quite certain it is too late for that. I have a lot of great guy friends who I am lucky enough to have. It's just guys specifically like Ben I often target. It is just something about how bothersome it is for a girl to sleep around and be considered a slut and when a man does it, he's getting high-fived by the guys in the high school locker room. Now, I have been well out of high school, but the minds of most college students still seem to happily reside there. The hangover from whatever weekly party that occurs on campus also comes with the whispered bragging about how lucky they got that night. Getting laid is like a sport and I sometimes wonder if my classmates are actually keeping score. They should make a facebook application for it or something.

Anyways... I admit, sometimes girls can be a little easy. It is not because they are dumb, but simply blind. Blind to what they want to believe in and the lies our subject tells. Being 'easy' is a simple word to insult a multiple of factors people like Ben could care less to take into account. I was easy and I built my whole life trying to avoid that statement, but I became it. I never was easy enough to the point where he had much to brag about to his friends the next day. But let's turn the tables now, because I think Ben is way too easy. Women may think too much with their hearts, but Ben thinks too much with his penis. It is a dangerous concoction of sexual drive and an invincible concept that will place Ben in some adventurous situations that may not be as satisfying as he thinks.

In other news, I saw The Incredible Hulk the other night. Fantastic movie. Of course, the movie did not have much of a bar to jump after Ang Lee's comic book disgrace. However, I may speak from a bias angle since I favor Edward Norton in more ways than one in this film.

Testing Gravity

Although, I must admit, for a guy who just wants to use girls, at least he tried to be a gentleman.

Weezer's Self-Titled Red Album has been this week's highlight of music blogger bashing (unless these bloggers got ahold of the leaked version the week before) Everyone and their mom hates it. I feel kind of bad. I have been following Weezer since I was in middle school. When I listen to the Red Album, I'm not quite sure how to feel. As a longtime fan, I feel this forced need to hate it. But as this fan, I feel I like it because it is Weezer. The Red Album's tracks bear a similarity to their CD cover; an awkward spinoff from something I once knew. Listening to the Red Album alone, without the knowledge of Weezer's previous work, I believe this album is pretty okay. Go ahead, comment below about how much you want me to die and how disgraceful of a fan I am, whatever.

I'm not a music blogger and I do not intend to be, so I am not going to sit here and detail every track for you. What I will say is this: The Red Album may not be great, but it is a mile ahead of Make Believe and I was not too much of a fan of Maladroit either. So you can go on now and rant about how much it sucks, but I don't think it's as bad as everyone else is making it out to be.

At least Pork and Beans is 99.9% better as the album's first single in comparison to Beverly Hills for Make Believe. Ugh.
