I don’t want to be “that guy” but I did not like this movie. There is no reason to listen to me because, apparently, the movie is well received on IMDb, by critics, and other people I know (who told me to see it and I’ll never again take advice from). I figured it would be okay but I just wanted it to be over. I have a slightly different taste in movies so… maybe that’s the problem but I wouldn’t ever recommend someone see this and will never watch it again. I feel like Mr. Ferrell needs to change it up a little. He’s the same F-ing character in every film. It’s old and not funny. Anyway… If you see it and like it… you’re stupid… so there.
While we’re on the subject (see ludacris post), this is like watching Bush cut down a tree to appeal to working class southern men (and about as genuine); except strike working class southern men and replace it with middle class middle aged white women. I understand obama wants to win, so I can’t criticize him for playing the game. I can, however, criticize the American voters for not having enough respect for their country and forcing the candidates to do stupid, meaningless, “I could relate to that guy” crap. On the bright side, he does punch like a champ.
P.S. If someone forced you to do this, how much respect could you have for them? I can only imagine the derogatory thoughts going through his head keeping him smiling.
Ludacris raps about Obama. Thankfully the Obama campaign has “condemned” the song. When I saw luda at the White House Corespondent’s Dinner, I cannot have guessed he’d go political. Tool.
Play with the data visualizer used to make Radiohead’s House of cards video. It’s actually kind of cool… if you like playing with data visualizers. anyway… the link Data Visualizer
I have an unhealthy obsession with Dubai and Sheikh Zayed Road in particular. I know I need help but it’s amazing how fast this place is growing. To emphasize this I will include a picture of Sheikh Zayed Road in 1991 and 2005. The differences is amazing but the change is only emphasized by the differences between 2005 and 2008 that you can see in video. Oh, and for those not in the know, that really tall building in the background and off to the left is the WORLDS TALLEST building at over 800 meters (thats twice as tall as the empire state building!).
Below is the picture of Sheikh Zayed Road between 1991-2005. Amazing, right? I know.
Remember this picture next time you fill your car up.
