Romney Form Committee to Investigate Cracking Corn and I Don’t Care

I guess Mitt Romney’s committee to investigate forming an investigative committee for a Presidential bid decided an investigative committee would meet with a favorable response.

I hate this guy.

I hate this guy and I hate his stupid bid for attention and money. Most of all I hate that now I have to listen to people talk about him and his potential Presidential bid. He can’t win; he’s a Mormon and no matter what he says that’s not the same as Kennedy being a Catholic.

Instead I want to talk about how humanity took its first steps into space fifty years ago today. I want to talk about how people are rising up against dictators around the world. I want to talk about anything at all that’s important and relevant, and try and ignore the fact that I’ll be seeing Mitt’s smug, punchable face in YouTube clips and television ads for a solid eighteen months.

The Next Next Generation

When the Playstation 3 launched it cost as much as a car, the controllers didn’t have rumble, and the system used power at a rate of 1.21 jigawatts/hour.  And there were no games ready for the system that anybody anywhere cared about.

The XBOX 360 launched as a white box that had no functionality — you even had to pay extra for the motorized tray add-on.  Oh, and 2/3 of all 360′s die horrible deaths from internal melting.  Two of mine did, and I’m not going back for the third.

Zombies Should Be Dead

Really,  Rockstar?  Zombies?  You took Red Dead Redemption, the highest rated, multi-platform release of the year and decided to add zombies?  Gee, that’s really fucking original.  And unique.  Very unique.  Really, extremely, very unique.

Chock Full of Bacony Goodness

So the pharmaceutical industry saw a growth in profits during the worst year of the recession (fingers crossed).  The AP reported that the top selling drugs are anti-psychotics, followed by, “Drugs to treat heart burn and high cholesterol.”

Really, America?  You’re shelling out billions for meds because you can’t be bothered not to eat shit?  And you’re so addicted to said feces that KFC (née Kentucky Fried Chicken) just unleashed a sandwich with fried meat for bread upon the world?

I totally understand why so many people need anti-psychotics.
