They must be getting ready for Jack in the Box’s free taco day!

BTW…if you haven’t heard of woot.com…they’re a deal a day site. Each day they have 1 great deal and that’s it, even if they sell out. I’ve seen anything from iPods and computers to comic books and toys for sale at amazing prices. They also do a t-shirt a day too…like the awesome one above. It’s called “The Greasy Grasp Of God”. Delicious.

If you want it you should buy it ASAP. The designs are only up for 24 hours and if they sell out you’re SOL…I haven’t seen a reprint yet.

Lead singer, Hayley Williams, of Paramore is not happy with her pathetic ex-stepfather’s actions. The low life is selling Williams’ items on Ebay, and she’s blogging about it.

Here’s the following blog:

ebay revenge.
so… i’ve decided to do this. it was only half thought out but i’m doin it anyways.

i saw that post someone made about the “handwritten book” on ebay. yes, it’s mine. hahah. i don’t remember being a sad child but i definitely loved horror films at a really young age. i guess that was reflected in this particular assignment. anyway, that’s not exactly what i’m posting about. i’m actually posting about the seller of this item. it happens to be my ex-stepfather. who is… well… insane, hence the reason he is my EX-stepfather. so, while i can laugh at the fact that a bit of my past has surfaced, i have to admit i felt like throwin shit when i saw the username. to be honest, i’d love to post his full name. where he works. possibly a phone number??? then all of you could show him what it feels like when your personal life is out there for everyone to put their hands on. fortunately for him… living with him for 7 years wasn’t quite enough to make me turn out just like him… or was it?
don’t buy it. i’m gonna buy it. hahaha.

I am a slave to product placement. When I saw Speed strut across screen in that blue jacket, I knew that I had to have it. Whether I wore it or I roped my boyfriend/brother/anyone into wearing, I knew that this movie wasn’t the end of me and the jacket.

I don’t feel ashamed because everyone has had a moment like this. After tirelessly searching for the jacket, I was just about to give up until I found this webpage.

filmjackets.com

These guys help you find the jacket you are looking for. Search their site and see all of the great movie apparel they’ve hunted down from Indiana Jones to Cry Baby. They even confirm if it’s the actual brand manufacturer from the film.

I’ve asked them to find one for me since it’s their specialty. I know it’s from a company called Belstaff that outfits tons of hollywood blockbusters. Let’s hope the site can come through!

I don’t know about you, but I’m a homebody. Why you may ask? Well mostly because 1.) I am poor and 2.) I hate dealing with weird people and I always run into them when I’m out, so I like making the place I live in as cool as possible. I mean if you are going to willingly confine yourself in an apartment, it might as well be nice.

My first thought to savvy up my apartment was furniture, but I remembered that I’m poor. (Poor to the point where I can’t afford IKEA furniture.) Plus, I didn’t want to get a bad piece that would ruin my apartment’s esthetic. Next, I thought I would put up framed pictures or paint, but that’s a lot of work. Also, because I live an an apartment, I’d have to paint the walls back to the original color and cover up all the holes. ( See what I mean, it even sounds like a lot of work!)

But I’ve run across a rather inexpensive, creative way to decorate an apartment- Blik. Blik is a design company that specializes in self adhesive wall decals. ( Stickers for grown-ups as they call it.) They have various styles that will fit several types of tastes and it’s super easy to do! Just peel and stick. You can keep it up for as long as you like and if you grow tired of it, just peel it off. What’s also great is they have a line called “Re-stik” that will allow to reuse them.

Now that you know how to make your apartment cool, go do it! I guarantee you’ll never want to leave!

P.S. For all those threadless.com fans out there, they have created wall decals out of some of the more popular designs. Now you can have your walls match your wardrobe!

I can’t sleep so I’ve been watching random things on youtube and I ran into this video, which I’m sure you guys might find enjoyable if not amazing.

I think it’s a cool thing to watch because I’m a video game geek. (Even if you’re not, I guarantee you won’t be able to look away!) This is sheer insanity! Kinda’ shows that there are people who have waaaay to much time on their hands. In this video the person sinks the sound effects to a song for 11 minutes long!

P.S. I attempted to translate the Japanese title 組曲『ニコニコ動画』 グランドフィナーレ　全自動マリオVer 【STEREO】Kimikyoku Nikoniko Douga Gurando Finaare Senjidou Mario (in case you can’t see the characters)

And I think it’s Musical Suite: [Smile Animation] Grand Finale Totally Automatic Mario Ver. But, seriously, don’t take my word for it. My Japanese really sucks!

It’s less than a week before my summer classes and I’ve been doing the random. I went swimming until the weather in California forgot it was California and a tornado watch happened. This brought about the rain which prompted me to sit on my butt, enjoy the pitter-patter of the rain and bring out a sweater to wear (YES! It’s sweater weather!)

While sitting on my butt I decided to spend hours on doing what I like most- being productive unproductive. What does that mean exactly you ask? Well it means instead of reading ahead for my classes or doing some sit-ups to counteract the munchies I’ve caught from visiting my parents I’ve used my precious time to do other things such as: going on sites like Etsy.com or ebay, read a blog or two or 10 and watch all the seasons so Arrested Development-I forgot Zack Braff was a never-nude.

Everything was copacetic til I was on ebay searching for Flight of the Conchords tickets in Los Angeles. I knew that it was going to be expensive, last time I checked a pair was going for around $300, but nothing prepared me for the prices I saw today. All the “buy now” tickets are going for around $700 and at that price most of the sellers AREN’T offering free shipping! Those shits! Honestly, someone is even brazen enough to have a” buy now” at $1,100. His/her message to the buyer (if there is one foolish enough to buy it) is:

“These are awesome seats that I am sadly selling - I have to go out of town for business now. I had bought them through a service and am just trying to recoup my money - hopefully these go to some worthy individuals that love FOTC.”

LIKE THEY GIVE A TOSS THAT A FOTC FAN BUYS IT!

It’s like…SERIOUSLY…are you sending those tickets in an envelope made of gold, encrusted with diamonds and delivered by a person who going to offer some kind of sexual favor?

Oh, no?

THEN WTF, WHY $1,100?!

FOTC fans are mostly college students that buy cup-o-noodles with the 5 bucks they got from their $150 psych book during their school’s book buy back ripoff session or young people that live in studio apartments and use their beds as couches or at least a barrier to pretend the kitchen is not your bedroom.

With those discouraging ticket prices I’m just going to have to enjoy my FOTC DVD and youtube videos because there is no way I’m shelling out hundreds compared to ticketmaster’s $32+ whatever handling fees.

CLICK HERE to see FOTC tickets at an outrageous price.

and I leave you with FOTC “Ladies of the World” music video.

My refresh button is about to fall off because of Muxtape.com.

If you’re not familiar with the site it lets you upload 12 songs onto your profile for an online playlist. You can listen to different users’ playlists and they can listen to yours. Just refresh the site for a new set of mixes.

I’m going on overload discovering so much amazing music. I do fine on my own usually, but THE REMIXES…I’ve had the pleasure of finding remixes for some of my favorite bands and COVERS!

I’ve always been a sucker for remixes and cover songs.

There’s just something very interesting when an artist puts their spin on another artist’s work. Sometimes it’s sacrilege, but most of the time for me it refreshes my memory when it comes to listening to old favorites.

Another great Muxtape feature, according to its blog, is it’s iphone compatable. You can travel with unlimited playlists because you can connect to the site and listen to it on your iphone.

Start your own Muxtape HERE. The sign up is lightening fast and simple.

Below is my (Cy) and Cypress’ Muxtape URL. Leave your URL in the comments and we’ll check yours out. KN loves music!

AHH!

White Gold announced on Facebook that they have a new WEBSITE!

For those who aren’t in the loop White Gold is Spinal Tap + Milk and, as far as I’m concerned, that equation equals AWESOME!

I love this Got Milk campaign.

This is the bulletin they posted:

Our new official site WhiteGoldIsWhiteGold.com is finally ready! It’s like if you fed our Facebook page a lot of milk and let it hibernate for the winter. Come springtime, it would emerge a beefy, glorious cyber gorilla, which is exactly what WhiteGoldIsWhiteGold.com is. It’s got to be like the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Cool. Like COLD. Like frostbite. Seriously. Ouch.

Check it: www.WhiteGoldIsWhiteGold.com

Seriously, check the website out- it’s killer.

I am no longer Lactos Intolerant.

The new milk ads are right up my ally. I’m the first to admit…I fall in love with things that are really really good or really really bad.

This ad for milk is stupid clever awfully good. (Yeah, that’s a compliment.)

The gotmilk ad features White Gold and the Calcium Twins. His guitar is filled with “delicious dairy” and he’s ready to “rock the world’s face.”

I think I’ve watched this cheesetastic video 20 times.

After seeing this video it made me head over to gotmilk.com and I saw another clever ad with a wicked witch who, after drinking a glass of milk, is less…witchy. Apparently a glass of milk can help with PMS…man if I knew that sooner…I totally would have hooked up a couple of lady’s I know with a glass or two…who am I kidding…the whole gallon.

The “PMS” milk commercial I’m posting is actually in Spanish with subtitles on the website with the tag “toma Leche”, but the youtube one I found is in English right below.

I’m still browsing the site as I’m typing this. They have all these recipes I want to try…well that I want Cypress to try to make…I just want to eat them hha.

CLICK HERE to check out the website. Their ad campaigns are awesome and there are useful facts for days.
