In the Spirit of the Season

Ok, so it's been a while since we've had a YNTE post about... food. And it's almost halloween. How do we remedy this? With this:


It looks delicious. But it probably looks more delicious than it tastes... or is it?

Cue the fanfare!

You Need to Eat has surpassed 200 posts!

This is a truly momentous occasion, almost as important as the time White Jesus came to Washington DC with a group of our founding fathers (including George Washington, Seqoyah, Christina McAullife, and "Black Union Soldier") to give our nation's constitution to a small child in front of a politician ignoring the event on his cell phone, a lawyer counting money, and an immigrant who is shocked and terrified to see White Jesus, but "is free to worship as he pleases".

I'm pretty sure that actually happened.

EDIT: I apologize that in my original description, I failed to point out that Ronald Reagan was among the founding fathers.

Achievement Unlocked: VOOT!

Virtual On Oratorio Tangram came out for XBLA a few days ago. Since Virtual On is, of course, the best game series ever, you should go download this and get an easy 200 points added to your gamerscore.

Gogo Giant Robots! (Oh, sorry, the picture I posted with this is the original ad for the first game. Epic!)

I have no idea why Evan hasn't jumped on the opportunity for really easy points on this yet. Maybe he hasn't been eating enough. Or maybe he ate Spider Pig, and somehow got swine flu. Not to mention that this whole swine flu incident is just a big media hype, and I'll give into it when pigs fly... then we'd have to worry about avian swine flu. Crap.

Random Thoughts

First of all, this is POST #5 for February. February Accomplished. February Over-Accomplished. You all need to slow down with the content if we want to keep pace for the rest of the year.

Second of all, I stand by my assertion that it's "Pdrepper". And now I'm bringing evidence:
That is a segment of the Gutenberg Bible, the first ever printed book. My latin isn't great, but I'm pretty sure that "Quid" is a latin word and "Qrum" is a made up word. The precident is set, way back to the earliest days of printed text, that when a letter is so big it takes up two lines, it goes with the letters on the first line, not second.

Also, from the wikipedia page on "Dr Pepper":

The period (fullstop) after "Dr" was discarded for stylistic and legibility reasons in the 1950s. Dr Pepper's logo was redesigned and the text in this new logo was slanted. The period made "Dr." look like "Di:". After some debate, the period was removed for good (it had been used off and on in previous logos), as it would also help remove any medical connotation with the product.

See? No actual medical connotation. Not "Doctor Pepper", it's "Pdrepper".

Also, by rearguing the point, i may have knocked pdrepper back up in the wordle count after Tom relegitimized it.

And speaking of Tom, I pose a challenge to you: while drinking your free Pdrepper, you listen to this:

Let me know if it was worth it.
