The... Imagine Conan’s Set

I've just started watching a clip of George Lopez's talk show that airs on TBS. His show is going to be pushed back an hour later on in the year to make way for Conan O'Briens new show, and he was happy to do it, because he knows that having one of the three greatest talk show hosts at the moment be your lead in is excellent for ratings.

I don't find Lopez that funny, and his style on his show seems very robotic and fake to me… but at least he had Louis CK appear to do a stand-up routine.

But anyway, my point is that if George Lopez can have the massive set that he has for his talk show, then can you imagine the set that TBS will be willing to give to Conan? Holy crap, Lopez's set is massive and looks like it is from a comedy special… so I can hardly wait for Conan's.

Hopefully Conan can make his new show just as good as his run on Late Night/Tonight Show, even though he won't be able to access any of his old characters or anything. I'm hoping that because Robert Smigel is the creator and puppeteer of Triumph, that he owns the rights to the character, and not NBC… because really… why else would they use Triumph. They should just let Conan have his old dog back.

The... Worst Porn I Can Find Today: Part 9

It has been a while since I have done a post for the 'Worst Porn', and it is mainly because I haven't been able to find anything that is truly worthy of such a post. I keep stumbling upon a lot of videos that, whilst bad… well, they just aren't that bad.

Today's post will change that. It is of course, NSFW and after the jump.

The... Upload Limit

I'm currently working on a way that I will be able to upload larger files to the site, as I have noticed that a lot of the 'Worst Porn' videos are gone now from their respective websites and what not.

To fix this problem, I want to be able to upload a copy to my site so that I won't have to worry about if the videos are removed, and can simply use the version uploaded to the site as a backup.

The problem with this is the fact that my hosts, Dreamhost, do not allow you to upload via PHP (which is what runs WordPress) anything more than 7MB, unless you compile your own version of PHP… which doesn't want to work for me.

So hopefully that problem will be fixed, and if it is, then yay!

For example… I just used the work around thing for this file:

UPDATE: After fucking around for a fair bit, it seems like the thing will finally work… so yay!

The... I Need A Break

I really need a break. I am being run ragged by my two children, and I seriously need a bloody break.

This is the reason why the migration to WordPress is coming slower than I would have liked. I got fed up the other day and went to just import the entirety of my blog from Blogger, but doing it that way causes massive amounts of errors. So to get the site the way I want it, I have to do it manually. I'm just glad that I haven't posted more than I would have liked, otherwise the task might seem completely impossible to me and I would probably just abandon the site.

Which would be a bitch after all the work i've been putting into it as of late. I'm hoping to get the rest of the site switched within the next week, but I cannot promise anything.

If these kids would maybe give me a break from the rampaging hell that is my life at the moment, then I might be able to get some time to myself without needing to worry about whatever the fuck they are trying to do. For example, right now they are in the loungeroom with their grandfather, running around and generally doing the opposite of whatever it is anyone tells them to do.

I love my kids, but seriously. The way they are acting is making me want to not have anything to do with them. I guess this is just a part of being a parent…

…it's called the really shitty part.

The... Migrating

If you've come to the page over the last day, then you'll notice that it has been changing a fair bit. As you can see, the site is slowly coming together, and the design is starting to gel.

I need to finish off a few of the template pages so that the site will be fully functioning, but overall it isn't looking too bad. Whilst I am doing that though, I will be migrating many of my posts to this site and I will be doing it manually, so that I can fix any niggling design problems I may encounter.

I also figure it will be a great way to get used to the WordPress editor, so that I know my way around it and can do whatever I want to. So this should be an interesting short period.

The... Hard Knock Life

Holy crap! I have never read any of the 'Little Orphan Annie' comic strips, but now I kind of wish I had if the last strip in it's now ended original run is any indication of how fucking insane it is.

To start, most people will know of the character via the musical film Annie. The poster for that movie is on the right if you have a hard time picturing it. It was famous for giving the world the songs 'Tomorrow' and 'It's A Hard Knock Life', which later went on to be mocked by Mike Myers in whatever Austin Powers movie it was mocked in.

But god damned. I thought it was just a story about a little girl being adopted by some rich dude, and the trials and tribulations of them as they do things and everyone ends up being happy.

Well… prepare to be blown away. The ending of the strip goes about like this:

Annie has recently been kidnapped by gangsters. They've killed people, and it shows the end result in the strip, so it looks like Annie is in trouble. Cut to some detectives or something telling Warbucks (the old rich dude), that she is most likely dead… and fed to sharks.

If that was the final week of the comic strip, THAT is how it would have ended. But the ending is far more awesome than that!It goes to explain that Annie was saved by a war criminal known as 'The Butcher of the Balkans'… and he is contemplating killing her to make sure she doesn't talk to anyone about his location. But no… he can't do that to a child.

Damn.

What does he do? Well, he decides that wherever he goes, he will take her along with him. So instead of being kidnapped by gangsters… she is now being held captive by a fucking war criminal, who might kill her so he doesn't have the burden of her any longer.

This is almost as weird as Tin Tin wearing a monkey! But damn, I want to go and read some Annie!

The... Huh?

I've only just came across this video from the Glamour Magazine awards ceremony. What the fuck they are giving awards out for, I have no idea… but that still doesn't stop them from having Sir Patrick Stewart presenting an award.

What the fuck just happened? I always thought that Patrick Stewart had some sense of humour, but his bad attempts at insulting that fat guy (whom i've only ever seen in the latest episode of Doctor Who) are incredibly pitiful.

The Jonas Brothers? I can see your belly?

His creepy smirk after he made the comments do not help his cause either. What the hell drug is he on?

The... Foreigner

I was out the back today when I heard a sort of crashing sound in the shed. I opened it up to discover that a box of my old trading cards had fallen, and spilt out over the floor. Quite annoying.

Picking them up however, and I came across a card I do not remember ever having.

It's a trading card for the band Foreigner. I found this incredibly amusing, because… well. It's Foreigner. Why the hell do I have a Foreigner trading card? It seems to be from a set of music related cards, but for the life of me, I don't ever remember having any other cards… hell, I don't even remember having this one!

Another reason I found it amusing is because of when me and my friends used to regularly play trivia on a thursday night. Whenever there was a CD Music round, and a song came on that we weren't sure of the artist, we would simply put Foreigner… because about 80% of the time, it was the right answer. That is the golden rule… if you don't know who the artist is of the song you're listening to, it is either Foreigner or Phil Collins/Genesis. Trust me.

On another note, look at the unabashed coolness emitting from them. The long girly hair, the incredibly faggy clothes. It's like looking at one guy doing three guys. It is very gay.

Rock on, Foreigner. Rock on!
