More geeky than girly.

fun

  • Just a random awesome video for the weekend cuz I’m not feeling so well.

  • How geeky fun are these?!?! Bonus: Look, you can have spicy noodles delivered to your house every month!

  • Some memories from this weekend— Ate Chick-fil-A and Schlotzsky’s for the first time. King: (when he first picked me up from the airport) That building there is the…uh, forgot the name of the bank. Wait, is that even a bank? (He was pointing out the Frost Bank to me). I just LOVED Stina’s surprised face…

  • Work It Out

    Some guy doing some funky moves with some crutches. Hey, looks like they’re the same company who did The Station Agent, a movie referral from CC. Edit: Check out v. 2 here.

  • I almost titled this post: Barack, the baby killer? But before I get into that, check me out: There’s a little quiz at glassbooth.org that helps you find out which presidential candidate most closely aligns with you. I don’t usually post about politics much here, probably because I’m not much of a political person.  But…

  • I was watching this guy on TV several weeks ago. Pretty good ventriloquist with funny material. Personal fun fact: when I was young, I tried to pick up ventriloquism by reading books. I didn’t get very good, so instead, I learned to juggle.

  • Anyone remember the Garbage Pail Kids? They were designed to parody the Cabbage Patch Kids.  My sibs and I used to collect GPK cards for some reason. Not sure why. Maybe it was because I never could afford a Cabbage Patch doll. Anyhoo, found some images by Luis Diaz, one of the original GPK artists.…

  • “A New Hope“ “Emo for Obama“

  • Mythbusters guy shows how the gases helium and sulfur hexafluoride each alter the sound of our voices in very different ways.

  • Edit: Sept. 3, 2008 me: i miss my adblocker joey: it has adblock joey: doesn’t it joey: o wait it doesn’t joey: lol it doesnt’ block google ads oh, and type about:internets into the address bar to get a fun little animation. If you haven’t heard the news, Google released its own browser today. Google…

  • This is too funny. High five to Kurt for the link.

  • Consulate fun fact: the seat cover dispenser in the women’s bathroom is upside-down. Hmm, I wonder why… :) I spent a lot of time there last week. But, I also had the chance to use the “special window” at the Laguna St. entrance. I waited in a little room while the consul brought my documents…

  • I cringe every time Jet Li opens his mouth in these American films. I’m embarrassed for him, but at the same time, it makes me chuckle. His first line in The Forbidden Kingdom after a long fight scene: No, Fool! Why do I write this now? Because I’m watching Kiss of the Dragon on TV…

  • Just got back from a sneak preview of The Forbidden Kingdom that opens this Friday, along with Expelled. Don’t worry, no spoilers here because I don’t really like to write. I’m just embarrassed every time Jet Li speaks in English. I think filmmakers make the effort to minimize his lines. But boy, he does move…

  • Is black the new green? Google turned its home page black in support of Earth Hour. TechCrunch brings up a good point: Google, ironically, is causing more people to visit their site, using even more power to celebrate Earth Hour than they would on a normal day. It looks so funny that it almost made…

  • World Pillow Fight Day – March 22, 2008. Massive pillow fights will be happening all over the world, except San Francisco, because we already had ours on Valentine’s Day. Too bad I missed it this year. But guess what? They’ve got it going on in Beijing and Shanghai. Fun.

  • Too funny…

  • My friend Craig had extra tickets to Barry Bonds’ last game with the Giants, so he invited me and my friend Nathan along. We had really good seats (row 10 on the 3rd base side). Even though I’m not a big fan Giants fan, it’s always fun to go to a ballgame and of course,…

  • Japanese Extreme Obstacle Courses – Watch a funny movie here

  • Elephant Trek

    Chiang Mai, Thailand +- Thailand was fun. Too bad everyone tried to speak to me in Thai because they thought I was Thai. So sad. No wonder everyone in China looks at me funny, probably because I don’t look Chinese. Anyways, I learned several phrases in Thai–one of which is “mai chai khon Thai”, meaning…
