I am a proud owner of an IPod Touch. Although it’s sexiness is equal to or lesser than that of myself, I often find it a pain to use the onscreen keypad. Especially when I’ve been drinking.
That’s why my eye’s exploded in joy the day I stumbled upon a product online called “My Touch Keys”. It’s a decal that goes over the Pod’s touch screen and makes it easier to type. Or so I thought.
50,000 days after I ordered the My Touch Keys, they arrived in the mail. The decal has little holes punched out where the keys would be if your typing. After using the stupid online video (for fun) to help apply it I almost immediately hated it. It didn’t help me at all, and no matter what, I couldn’t get all the tiny little bubbles out from behind the decal.
So, I ripped it off post haste, only to discover that it left an imprint on my screen. Although it was easily wiped off, my frown wasn’t. It was probably the worst $8 purchase I’ve seen in months (besides the lemon scented toilet paper).
If you’re thinking about picking up one of these, don’t. Or at very least contact me and I’ll sell you mine for next to nothing. I just want to get this stupid idea out of my house.
Dear Smash Brothers Brawl:
Hey whats up? It’s been real cool having you staying at my house the past couple of weeks. I can’t believe we hung out for like, six hours on Saturday. It was nuts.
I hope you don’t get creeped out by me wanting to spend so much time with you recently. I know I just met you not to long ago but, well, I feel like we have something special together. I mean, I think about you when I’m at work and can’t wait to get home to see you. Like last night, when my buddies and I were all taking turns playing with you and you didn’t seem to mind… It was really cool. You even let us do some stuff to you I didn’t know you could do before.
I think that’s why I like you so much Smash Brothers Brawl. You’re so versitile. I can be with you for hours and it’s never the same thing. It’s like you know EXACTLY what I want. You’ve made my Wii VERY happy.

I recently recieved the fifth season of my favorite TV show on DVD as a gift. Although this season is good / funny overall, you can tell that these episodes were made during the production of the movie. Two episodes are based on the feature film itself, and a couple of the others seem rushed, and not as well planned out as past seasons.
Still, the good outweighs the not so good. Highlights include meatwad’s dog that constantly rapes their neighbor Carl, Shake’s son, and an entire episode that promotes Boost Mobile.
The DVD’s themselves are pretty good. All the menus are sung and the special features are funny. There is a music video, deleted scenes, and allot of stuff dealing with the movie. The only special feature I didn’t like was called “Learn to Shred Like the Master” which is just two minutes of some dude playing guitar.
Also, the DVD comes with stickers, which is an A+ on my book. You should go out and pick this DVD up as fast as possible. But, if you don’t own the earlier seasons (especially three), I recommend going and getting them first.
Over this holiday weekend, my roommate picked up the best party game I have ever played. It’s called Rock Band, and makes Guitar Hero look like an idiot.
Rock band is a FOUR player game where you and three friends actually start a band, each with a different instrument. If you buy the bundle pack, which my roommate did, you get the game, a microphone, a guitar, and a drum set. If you have an extra guitar laying around from guitar hero, you also can have someone play the bass. So.. to re-iterate:
A singer
A guitar player
A bass player
A drummer
All playing at the same time on the same screen. Can you imagine how amazing this is? The ONLY downfall about this game is that hours will go by and you won’t even realize it. My friends and I played this game from about 10Pm to 3am Saturday night and didn’t even realize it.
For YEARS now TV has been teasing us Pittsburgher’s with commercials for Sonics, a fast food restuarant w/ thousands of drink combinations and greasy food.
I don’t know how many times my friends and I got into a conversation about why in the hell Sonics spent so much money advertising to a region where there isn’t any of it’s restuarants. That all changed Saturday my friends.
I first spied it when I went to the Millvale Mall on Thursday with my roommate. I was so happy I almost fell out of the car door. I called my buddy and let him know, and I could of swore his phone exloded with joy. We made plans to go on Saturday.
Saturday eventually rolled around, and we took the 45 minute drive out to the mall to feast like kings. Sonics is unique in that there is no actual building to eat in. It’s all pull up and order, and you eat in your car. Apparently everyone else in Pennsylvania was so happy we finally had a Sonics that they decided to eat there too. We had to wait in line.
When we got a spot, we were in fact bombarded with delicious combo selections, cool treat options, and the always promised husky drink choices. An added bonus was that they serve Tater Tots as well as the played out French Fry. I ordered a chiggen sammitch , tots, and a lime on lime slushee. Crazy Delicious.
I would recommend going to Sonics at least once a week for the rest of your life, or daily if you live closer
