Here's you christmas present, YNTE!

It's an Arwen Sword Replica. You know, because it's both thoughtful and practical?

Anyway, I hope your Christmas was magical.

-Evan

I'd eat that.

Question: Is it sad that our readers are doing more to keep the blog alive than we are?
Answer:Yes.

Edit:
Question: Is it sad that our readers check links that they themselves submitted?
Answer: Yes.

I didn't have time to buy a cake

So I'm just re-gifting last year's.

No two people are not on fire.

The other day, we went to Taco Bell to buy lunch, only to find it was closed. Apparently there had been some sort of fire.

We were about to leave when Tom asks one of them "Is the chalupa machine okay?"

They replied, "Actually, that's where the fire started".

Tom made the saddest face I have ever seen a human make.

In happier news, the next day it was fine. Tom got his chalupa fix.

See, Matt? the blog is alive!

Waffles

Never realized how hard it was just to find a good picture of a waffle. I guess this will just have to do. Now, to the rest of the story:

Frozen pizzas are probably Evan's staple food source, but mine as of late seems to be: Toaster waffles. Delicious, delicious frozen toaster waffles. Why? I dunno, they're good. And easier than pizzas. Probably not the most delicious, but still. I'm lazy. Can't beat real ones, but they require work. Eggo waffles aren't waffles... but dammit, they're delicious. And generic brand waffles actually look and taste like waffles holy shit! Well, IGA ones at least. Safeway generic waffles are crap. At least peanut butter masks their crappiness.

Why am I posting about waffles? 'Cause I cant let the blog die. Again. For a third time. >.>

Also it's my birthday tomorrow. -woot-

Holy crap, it's here...

If this isn't a sign of the apocalypse, I don't know what is.

What's next? Duke Nukem Forever? There are some things in this world you can count on not being able to count on.

I feel like I just ate Jesus himself.

So I finally decided it was time for me to lose some weight. So I ended up deciding to have one last meal, and to do something I had been wanting to do for some time: make the ultimate grilled cheese sandwich burger. And while I was at it, I decided to blog the event.
Before: the raw materials.
First I fried the bacon.
About this point i realized I didn't have any margarine, and decided to just fry the sandwiches in the bacon grease.
I also realized didn't have a spatula. Pie server it is!
I think I may have defrosted the hamburger patty for too long. This is why I should never cook!
Time for construction!
Apparently 6 slices of bacon was exactly the right amount.
And here we have it: the final product.
And what's a good meal, without side dishes?

And there we have it. And even though I am terrible at cooking, it was the most delicious thing ever.

There is nothing I can remember more satisfying...

...than playing Rock Band 2, and watching The Joker sing Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld.

Matt is - Captain Hammer

I was lazy and didn't upload the only photo I had of my costume for halloween but... it's here now, from my cameraphone, which isn't half bad quality.

Notice the lack of beard.

Driving on the Gods

Evan - "Tom, you should paint your tires gold!"
Tom - "Yeah! then it'd be like I'm driving on the gods!"

Oh and before I forget, the photoshop was done by Evan. If I don't give him credit he'll get angry and his new-found editing super powers will all go to his head.

British kid's name is quite the mouthful

Ahaha food joke. Anyway.

A 19 year old boy from Britain changed his name legally to 'Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine The Hulk And The Flash Combined.' Since I'm pretty sure that Evan reads comics involving all of these characters, I'm assuming that this is relevant to this blog.

Although there is that nagging suspicion that he got part of his name from Family Guy... oh well, here's the source. Well, my source anyway. It'll probably lead to another source, and then source after source thereafter, until you find the internet singularity.


Also I hope that you have safe search on when you search for "Family Guy Boat." Just Sayin'.

Mission Accomplished!

Apparently, we've had more posts on this blog in the month of October than the entire rest of 2008.

Blog officially revived. Officially!

Caveman of the blog.

So apparently Evan thinks he's being the big man on this blog by revoking everyone's admin rights to edit other posts. Hilarious...not!

I guess I'll just have to resort to posting random funny photos of Evan on the blog.
In this first one he looks oddly like a caveman...not sure why.

NaNoWriMo is upon us.

National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo, is upon us once again in a few days. The idea is that everyday people undertake the insane task of trying to write an entire novel in a months time. Anyone who writes a 50,000+ word novel within the month of November "wins".

This year is great, since I just got cut back on hours. Now I have tons of free time to write my masterpiece, or if it's anything like last year, play video games and mumble to myself about how I should be writing.

I'm doing it, I think Jason is as well. Who else is with me?

More information can be found at: www.nanowrimo.org

Now THIS is happening!

Nobody but me has admin rights any more.

That's what happens when you abuse the laws of grammar.

Tom needs to eat

After trying to add me to this thing many times (possibly 40, which is terrible), Evan finally got me into eating. This half-creature/half-man explains just how my face brightened when I logged into my gmail and saw the invitation. You shall be seeing more of me, world. This will be the funnest mostest funner most fun (and you all are really swell. SUCK awesome horrible and much better lamer than Evan. STOP EDITING FIXING RUINING MY EDITS!) blog on the interweb.

What the Hell: a post for the grammar police.

I wasn't going to buy an ipod before, but this is the nail in the coffin.

FUNNEST IS NOT A WORD. NEITHER IS FUNNER. I don't care how much Steve Jobs wants it to be.

People need to stop being stupid.

Wait, who?

On the way home from class, Jason and I were having a conversation about his experimenting with Linux. The conversation went something like this:

J: "I need to take a look at the Kernel later."
M: "But the Colonel is dead!"
J: "But his music lives on."
M: "...what?"
J: "His music lives on.... oh, that Colonel. His chicken will live on, and die and be eaten by me."
M: "...which Colonel were you referring to before?"
J: "It's not important."
M: "But now I must know."
J: "... I'll find one."
M: "You know Evan is gonna give you crap about this, right?"
J: "Yeah..."

Haha Jason... you need to eat.

Picture nonexistent.

Lets go!

"You wanna throw down in fisticuffs?" -Evan
"Lets go, you devil queen! uh.. queen devil... queen of the devils, devil that's a queen" -Tom


Stop saying hilarious things accidentally, and I will stop making blog posts making fun of you.

Dan Marino...

"Dan Marino.... is he the dolphin that gets stolen?"
-Tom
Well, he is now.

Heart attacks CAN be delicious!

Faithful YNTE reader Rena sent in an article I missed about a hamburger with grilled cheese sandwiches for buns, which, despite being potentially deadly sounded very tasty.

Well, as always, I got distracted and didn't post it right away. Luckily now I can claim I was just waiting for the inevitable follow-up.


OH MAN. I think my arteries got clogged just looking at that. Still, worth it.

Someone forgot to tell me to eat

So, for a couple of weeks prior, I'd been skipping meals to get homework done. Last Wednesday, though, I started having severe stomach pains. The next day I go to the health and wellness center on campus, and they diagnose me with gastritis. Basically, this is a condition of the stomach lining being inflamed by too much stomach acid due to a number of causes, including... *drumroll* Stress! (And probably enhanced by not eating!)

So yeah. I need to eat so this doesn't happen again. BUT, I'm not allowed to eat tomato products, citrus, caffene, or NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) for the time being. In a nutshell, that means no pizza, no soda, no orange juice, and no ANTI-INFLAMMATORY medicine (ibuprofen) for the INFLAMING of the stomach.

Sucks, no?

Picture somewhat related.

OMG. Bear hit and run?

Bear may not have been driving, but that doesn't mean he can't hit and run.

Patricia Bougie was driving along Kennedy Road in Torrington and a bear ran out of the woods and right into her car.“It just came at me, so I swerved to the right up on the green and it just kept coming. There was no escape and it nailed me,” she said.

Karma, you had a good run.

Karma was officially disproven today in what is probably the single most bizarre news story I have ever read.

A Kansas man left his girlfriend alone in the bathroom for two years before calling the cops, only to find that her body had been fused to the toilet for over a month. In return, he won 20,000 dollars in his second lottery jackpot of the year.

If I knew all it took to get rich was having a crazy girlfriend/toilet hybrid, i would have engineered one years ago.

Who is on driving range? Oh my god, bear is on driving range, how can this be.

I never knew bears were such avid golfers, but here it is:

"In Whistler Village, a large male black bear met a similar fate after biting the leg of an Australian tourist who was walking as the bars closed. The bear fled, but returned into Whistler the next evening, and was shot when discovered on the driving range of a golf course."

Gerbils now? Really?

I think you may be confusing me with Stephen Lynch...

More fun with google

As part of their 10th anniversary, google has made available a search of their oldest available index from back in 2001.

While a lot of the links are dead by now, you can learn interesting things, such as the fact that Chinese Democracy is 99% done and will release in 2001. Who knew?

Stevo does NOT have a hampster infatuation.

Gerbils however...

Armageddon!

Ha! I made it in time!

So I figured since I really don't want terrible lies of my infatuation with hamsters spread about, I should make a post of some sort.

Anyways, I posted the picture to ask a simple question. Is the car grey? Or is it really purple? You decide.

Down to the Wire

As Matt pointed out, in the most recent re-revival of the blog, I have posted 3-4 times, Matt has posted once, and Stevo has posted a whopping ZERO times.

Now, Stevo has been informed that he must post at least once this month or we will start rumors about his obscure hampster infatuation. It would not be pretty.

With the month nearing a close, the question must be asked, will he make it?

Holy crap we're famous.

Check out the 7th image, first on the left.

IT'S A PICTURE FROM THIS BLOG. On the FIRST page of a google images search.

This is almost as groundbreaking as the time somebody famous left us a comment.

I got my watch upgraded

Check it out. The current time is...

Man, this is the best watch ever.

The terminology's a bit off, but still.

Lets hope this thing isn't hungry, because it eats planets.

Curious if the Large Hadron Collider has created a black hole that's devoured the planet? Look no further:

I feel much more at east now that that website's around.

The Hindenburger

Prompting another revival and death of this blog, I introduce to you....

The Hindenburger!

"This fiery burger is sure to leave your mouth gaping. One large flame-broiled patty is put onto a toasted zeppelin-shaped bun and topped with pepperjack cheese, habeneros, our special Hindenburger sauce, and topped off with a jalapeno-stuffed olive. Our signature sauce contains ketchup, brown mustard, horseradish, garlic, tobasco, and a drop of capsacin extract--In other words, this will have you crashing within 34 seconds and have you yelling, "Oh the humanity!" This is sure to be a meal of infamy."

Fully chronicled at: http://robotarmada.blogspot.com/2008/07/hindenburger.html

One word: Epic.

I'd Never Forget Evan's Birthday

Happy birthday Evan! Knowing that you like pizza and probably other things, here is an oreo pizza. It can replace your cake.

This is a real book.

The answer had better be bear.

YNTE dry spell officially broken. Time to commence a new dry spell.

Achievement Unlocked: As Easy As 1-2-3 (4-5?)

Been a while since I posted one of these, but my gamerscore just hit a nice round number again: 12345. A hearty portion of those recent points came from the game Lost: Via Domus, which is a video game based on the TV show, and to answer your question, yes, it is THAT bad. But I want to get all 100 of its easy gamerscore before I trade it in. I'm about to go back to playing it now, so it's likely I'll have passed 12500 by the time you read this. So I'm essentially 1/4 of the way to my second 10k. Will I hit 20k before Matt hits 10k? Only time will tell, but the race is on.
My gamertag on XBox Live is ShovelMage. Be friends with me!

When in space, do as the space-ians do. (They like to eat, too!)

From the well received, albeit short lived Sci-Fi/Western "Firefly":

and the twofer:

To tide you over...

There should be video content coming soon. And it's a twofer!

Also I have a surprise up my sleeve.

Matt brings up a good point...

The site HAS been lacking in content lately and there is a good excuse:
I'm a lameass. Actual content soon?

BTW, that's what shows up when you do a google search for "three legged donkey".

Instinct

This blog is lacking in content lately. >_> Perhaps an actual post is in order. From both of us. And Stevo. Seriously.

(Also, I didn't make the picture, just so you know.)

Yoda Knows Best

I've had this image since sometime this summer and never got around to uploading it. So here you go. Listen to Yoda.
