The main reason I hate listening to the radio isn’t the crappy music, inane banter, or most of the ads, it’s actually one ad in particular: the Gatorade G2 commercial. It repeatedly says the phrase “less calories for more athletes”. If you can’t spot what’s wrong with this phrase, I might hate you as well. JK, but not really…
Anyway, it’s “FEWER calories…”...
Apparently there is a way to improve 'Guitar Hero'... →
Using advanced nitpicking technology, the fucking geniuses I want to hug at Activision have somehow discovered things that ‘Guitar Hero: World Tour’ wasn’t doing quite right enough, and added an extra dash of awesome.

I leave tomorrow for California for 5 days for my little sister’s graduation from St. Mary’s. I’m mentally preparing for 5 days of drunken family fun. Hopefully I don’t have to answer too many questions about what the hell I’m doing with my own life. Only time and whiskey will tell. Fuck it. California, HERE I COME!!!

Ready for a mindfuck? Here’s a theory about Ferris Bueller’s Day Off that overthinks the lighthearted movie:
