Shitty Blogs Club
SBC
The site is Shitty Blogs Club. It is run by Jeckles. We interviewed him a ways back. The club champions those bloggers who say, “hey, I can do this,” even if they probably shouldn’t. Its logo (at right) is atrocious. It’s old logo was even worse and used some kind of font from the comic sans family of never-use-me fonts. Read more

Rodney King. You may be 0-2 vs. the cops and the justice system, Rodney, but you’ll always be 1-2 to me for making the other wastrels in the Celebrity Rehab house look like the class-less fame-whores that they are. Read more

D-list celebrities were not enough for season 1. Season 2 brought us E, F and Z-list celebs. Plus Rodney King.
Watching Jeff Conaway (Bobby from Taxi and Kenickie from Grease) for a second consecutive season proved a bit much as his bipolar I-love-you-all/I-want-out crybaby behavior grew tiresome. He showed us all his true self: a bitter, co-dependent, self-destructive addict. It was great TV…until around the 542nd scene of this stuff.
Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab, season 1
Dr. Drew Pinksy
Dr. Drew, you take your sober view of the world and impose it on talentless actors and fame-whores. We would castigate you for wasting your extensive education if your corps of heroin monkeys weren’t so damned entertaining. Failure, as always, is hilarious. Read more

Metallica: cred or incredulity?
I was looking forward to Metallica’s Death Magnetic. I listened to it when it came out. I hated it. I waited a day or two and listened again. It was worse. I waited a few weeks and listened again. Read more

1914 translation by H. Rackham
Patton waits patiently for more corn flakes.
More translation of Cicero. I’m not sure why I’m too lazy to delete this. Probably because I like that pic of Patton.
On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. Read more
