Subtle Bluntness

Here’s some things I’ve done lately:
Rest.
Go through a mini-quarter-life crisis/turn 29.
Think up 10 possible new faces for The Expendables 2.
See Dinner For Schmucks.
See The Sorceror’s Apprentice.
Correspond quite a bit with the more-successful, less-bearded version of me.  (It’s very strange to meet your Google shield.)
Spend most of the summer working with a Mac computer.  Realize that [...]

Guess who got linked on Cracked today?  If you said me, you’d be right.  Check out the image for #13, specifically the last link.  That’s my PopFi, all right.
At this point, between Cracked, Fark, Google, and the IMDb links?  I’m pretty much bigger than Jesus.

EDIT: Apparently, you don’t have to change anything.  My changing the feeds around on the back end handled it all.  Continue on about your business.
I hate doing anything to the back end of websites.  If I have to go in and start messing around with code and plug-ins, and anything not related to dirt simple [...]

There’s just something about a list that makes people virulent.  Take, for example, my list of 10 big films to watch out for in 2010.  On the surface, if you actually READ the entries, you’ll see that these aren’t all guaranteed to be good.  However, they *might* be good and even if they’re not, they [...]

I was listening to the BS Report, that podcast that Bill Simmons does over at ESPN, and during his long conversation with Chris Connelly, they discussed some things that kind of piqued my interest.  Connelly mentioned the demise of the various industries and brand names, like sports, music, and particularly writing.  I’ll try to transcribe [...]

I’ve noticed a lot of discussion on the various V review threads at Den of Geek, and I’ve put together a list of questions from them that I’ve been answering.  So, if you have any questions you’d like to see me answer, here’s a great place to put them (so I’ll know to see them).  [...]

Just one day after I randomly stumble across myself quoted on Wikipedia, guess where I randomly stumble across myself being linked from?  If you guessed Deadspin, you’d be right.  It wasn’t here or at Den of Geek this time.  It definitely wasn’t at my neglected sports blog, either.
Nope, Deadspin picked up on a PopFi post [...]

Well, I saw two movies in the last two weeks, Jennifer’s Body and Surrogates.  Jennifer’s Body was fun horror/comedy, and Surrogates was kind of fun (because of Bruce Willis) sci-fi/action, but it was Surrogates that got my brain a-scrambling like a midget on a treadmill.  Well, it was a combination of Surrogates and this quote [...]

I gave out my business card to someone the other day.  That’s not something new.  I mean, since I got the cards, I’ve probably given out 30 or 40, but usually only to people who I already know (and who know me well enough that they won’t be shocked by ye olde blogges or who [...]

“Hey Ron, are you ever going to post something for Feel Good Friday that isn’t ska?”
No, and fuck you for asking, dicktard.  Ska is the best music for feeling good that has ever been invented.  It’s the musical equivalent of Prozac.
Lately, I’ve been listening to a lot of Pandora.  The other day I turned it [...]
