Happy New Year

Eff waiting for midnight (except on Christmas) have a certifiably trill(and/or R3AL) 2009!!!

As far as Resolutions make yours to check here 10 times a day and we can both be happy. Ill reveal mine...ON THE BLOG...when(not if) it happens!

Be safe have fun and be cool! (now time for me to avoid gunshots because apparently fireworks aint enough for niggas nowadays)

Cube Runner!






















Is the best iPhone/iPodTouch app I have downloaded yet! Its simple but addictive and you can create your own map pack. (mine is cuberun.org/Rush.txt or you can )

All you do is turn the iDevice (quicker to type) like a steering wheel and let the fun begin, if you have it post your high score and I'll tell you if I beat you or not (that's what she said)....and if I can in some way get paid for this free advertising please instruct me on how.

The Total Opposite of a Puzzle is...





















A picture right? Thats what makes this Rubix Cube Portrait fresh. I wish I could have seen it finished but I have to say, this is the kind of art that takes a whole new level of concentration.

The Day The Zune Stood Still...

































OK so I read on MAKE magazine's feed that all (or thats what they say) Zune 30GB models stopped working at the same time today and I find that hi-lar-ious

It kinda reminds you of Y2K (for those of us who remember it...)

And since I pretty much stole this entire post, check it out at MAKE's website

12/29/08

Well...

I was gonna try to push out a couple of posts before I go to sleep...but I apparently have blogger's block :(

Soooo, I guess you'll have to wait for tommorow (and Im going to google blogger's block and see if I should copyright that)

Mr.Robot Head Game

Soooo...remember how robots are cool? Well when I saw this Mr.Robot Head game, I couldn't resist posting it.

































Here's the explanation for it:
Mr. Robot Head is electronic, but does not require batteries. It is powered with a handle in the back that has wind-up action. The object of the puzzle is to get the looped wand from one side of the wires on top of Mr. Robot Head to the other without touching the wire itself. When the wand touches the tantalizingly coiled wire, the robot’s LED eyes will madly flash and Mr. Robot Head will make strange noises.
It seems a little 80's but I would have loved it as a kid.

Dragonball Z All Over Again

So yea no matter how much you deny it EVERYONE has either seen Dragonball Z or made a crude joke about the name (in some cases both)

But thats not the point...there is NO WAY that Dragonball Z can be made into a live action movie (although they're trying) It is too effing unreal to even try to make look real. Lets look at this:

Piccolo
- The alien (not the sticker and/or roller) okay yeah, there are good special effects artists but come on.

The Kamehameha/ Spirit Bomb/ any laser blasts.
- Will not look cool coming out of a live human.

Super Saiyan Hair
- Normal human hair doesn't point like that (and never will) and will look quite dumb no matter how hard they try.

Im just gonna stop there since this is starting to sound like a nerd rant (I save those for myself) and I'll just post the trailer I found on YouTube.

Things That Dont Mix!

So following the lead of blogs like Things You Cant Do Coked Up and Stuff White People Like (and all of their subsidiaries and similarities) I decided to do something similar (but not plagiarism-ey)

And I call this Things That Dont Mix Thursdays! (the Sunday edition...)

#3 - Yoda and Christmas

















Im sure I dont have to tell you...that he looks like the Grinch.

#2 - Chicken Wings and Touchscreens












Just a thought I had as I was eating dinner last night...and tried to do some iPod Touch-ey stuff.

#1 - Myspace Photos and Ugly Girls



I laughed for hours when I first saw this video, and then I re-watched it for this post...and its still funny!

Shoe of the Week 14























So Travis and Disashi from Gym Class Heroes apparently posed with the Air Penny II's (Travis, left) and Jordan VIII Retros (Disashi, right) in somewhat matching colorways (which I just found out is a real word).

My favorite would be the VIII's if I had to choose between the two, but they look kinda plain. The Air Penny's dont look plain enough however (yea, that really was an informative description wasn't it?)

You can see more about them here.

My Bad Yo!

Yeah I know i havent posted in a minute but TOMMOROW...you'd better be ready for some cool stuff!

Oh yeah, this is OFFICIALLY the first R3AL post from my iPod Touch(not iTouch...definitely not iTouch) so yeah, fun stuff on the way.

12/25/08

Merry Christmas!!!





























No posts today...because who would read em...its kinda Christmas Day.

So drink some nog, enjoy some family, and I'll enjoy my new iTouch!

And no I didn't make that Santa (cool slayer at DeviantArt did) but its something I thought of doing.

12/24/08

NObama Logos

This post isn't as bad as the title makes it sound (but people LOVE controversy so I decided to make it sound edgy)

So yea, on Common's Blog (yea Im scared of plagiarism) I saw this site that showed some of the Obama logos that didn't make it. Here are my favorites.

















- Without going into too much detail, the O's are cool.


















- This is the one I would have chosen because you can do so much with it.


















- This one has that "texting" feel (like the girls on Myspace who can write a whole story L1K3 7#15

It apparently didn't really matter which logo he picked since it was such a landslide

Teriyaki Boyz - Work That feat. Pharell & Chris Brown



Didn't watch it all the way through but there are asian booties shaking CONSTANTLY(everything's smaller in asia...wow that sounded so racist)

The Teriyaki Boyz sure didnt sound as good as they did on this song feat. Kanye.

12/23/08

Rock It!

So yea, anybody that knows me knows Im a Fall Out Boy listener (yes the same...dopeboy lookin ahh negro) and after perusing their new album Folie a Duex I figure that anyone who's open to it should check it out.

I posted this (feat Lil Wayne) and here's another but I relatively like the CD (maybe Ill do a special post about it...when Im bored)

But the real reason for this post was when I was looking at MTV Hits and was too sleepy (lazy) to change the channel I saw this video by Metro Station.



Im sure everybody has heard the song before (but didn't notice it like me) but the video is kinda cool...(reminds me of Run It) and since everybody likes rock and roll now (*cough*Lil Wayne?*cough*) I figured that maybe this post would get me some cool points (or not...I dont care as long as I get page views...no Im joking...a little bit)

So yea, long ass post over...

Is it THAT Serious?



So at about 0:35 in the video Jets DE Shaun Ellis picks up a snowball the size of a small child and tosses it into the stands...hitting one guy(or girl?) in the FACE

He says its because fans were throwing snowballs (and they were...) but he sure does know how to take it out on ONE PERSON.

Dunk Dog...
























This is exactly what it looks like. A sculpture of a pitbull made out of Nike Dunks. And since Im too lazy to type out all the details you'll have to check this link for them.

12/22/08

Refs Are BEASTS!!!



So yea,(months) after this referee exploding on a player an NFL ref (forgot his name, im sorry...) forearm smashed Kenneth Darby (the running back) in the FACE...mask

Why are the refs going crazy this year in football?

Hang 1 UP























Pretty cool huh? Only problem is, what point is a coat hanger in Florida? (its hot here...) Im sure I'll see it on Kanye's Blog soon though...

If you dont get the title...then think Super Mario...and if you dont get that...I fail as a Blogger

Shoe of the Week 13

So in honor of Kobe showing up at my Dillard High (on a day when I wasn't there...) his shoe gets the honorary shoe of the week.

The ZOOM KOBE IV
























So yea, Im not usually into shoes designed SPECIFICALLY for performance in basketball, but these look pretty good. They have a pretty manageable color scheme and the bottom looks really cool to me.

Something bad? That I wasn't there when he showed up at Dillard!

Long story short, if in you're in the area you can buy them at the Footlocker in the Broward Mall

12/20/08

Secrets...

So this is the reason PostSecret is one of my new favorite websites.



















































































The short story is its an art project where people send postcards with their secret written on them for everybody to see anonymously. I think its a very funny and fresh idea (of course until people start sending their serious secrets like how they think they're father wont make it to Christmas...)

Check it out, and if you feel like it...post your secrets here in the comments :D

AF1s & Heartbreak




















So these were on HighSnobiety (and the Amajanese Blog if memory serves) and they could have been the Shoe of the Week...if you could tell they were for 808s & Heartbreak.

They look very fresh, and you can see the Heart on the tongue, but the little design in the back should show Kanye (for the dumb ones).

Please Jump Out Of The Window...


Yea, I agree with Allie on this one, Ron Brows = Suspect as fawwwwk. Not only that, but he is OFFICIALLY the worst user of the auto tuner.

As far as the dance, is he serious about this??? or is it a joke? either way WTF?

12/19/08

WTF is Happening Here!?





















Dont really know whats going on here...but the picture is soooo cool!

Has something to do with this

An Incredible Watch...
























I guess its called and MP4 Watch, but it plays and takes videos, plays music, has a microphone for recording, has 8GB of memory, and is basically everything an iPod or MP3 player by any other name (no matter how many people call your MP3 player an iPod, its not an iPod without the apple) but you can WEAR IT!!!!

And it only costs $149

Basically its making me regret buying an iPod, since it is so fresh!

I Wonder If Mario Sleeps on These...































Nintendo (not super?) controller pillows! They come in sets of 4 two large, two small (thats what she said...)

They are so fresh to be so nerdy, I actually may think about buying these someday (or not, im an enigma like that)

12/18/08

Kanye - Amazing Video?



This is obviously a rip of the Jay-Z video that Evan Roth made...and it is cool, and obviously took a bit of work.

Where it goes sour is that, Im pretty sure it's not Evan Roth's work (not on his website, duh) and the idiot who SHOULD have taken credit for coding it, instead cites it as the OFFICIAL VIDEO! (pretty sure its not, or it would be on Kanye's Blog...or maybe in a couple of hours he'll post it...and I will look quite stupid)

Dummy, now nobody will ever believe you wrote it...and you will GETS NO CASH!!!! >:O

Oh Santa...

So NOBODY believes in Santa anymore!? NOBODY!!!?

Well it would be hard when you read blogs about him being a slave master and poems about robbers outsmarting idiots who listen to their children. (this one is funny as hell)

I should make a post about Santa too...maybe it'll have something to do with paparazzi and Jesus...what was I talking about again? Forget it...

Is it Really That Serious...





















Yea, that IS a giant pet (dog) collar with an inflatable flotation device (a mouthful, Im sure). It also has one of those tracking chips.

But the real question is "Is there more of a chance of your pet(dog) drowning, or being completely humiliated by that crazy ass collar?"

These are the questions that you really ponder in life...

12/17/08

Person of the Year...








































Really, who else could it be? (obviously not somebody with a lip ring, Lil Wayne)

As for the picture, I like how they didn't do the complete ripoff (like everybody else...) and added some stuff in the back

For The Photoshoppers...
























Yea, a lot of people dont know that I really made a pretty popular Photoshop Brush on DeviantArt (then stopped posting stuff and...you know, checking it or logging into it)

I dont know if its really that popular but it got about 4500 downloads so far, since January I think. I think I may make another one in a couple of days (or not, if laziness overcomes me)

Click the picture for the link.

I Really Want This!!!

So Lupe was involved in the creation of this Trilly and Truly Shirt entitled...(wait for it)...Lupestein!!!































As awkward as the name is...the shirt is still fresh!(to me at least...) The funny thing is, I just read Frankenstein for AP Literature (yes, Im smart...duh)

More Cool Watches

I figure why waste internet space (yea that was sarcasm) by making two posts, when I could combine them to save time for me for twice the fun

There is the Asteroids Watch





















Which responds to tilts and stuff to play the game, wonder if it tells time though.

The LRG x G-Shock Frogman






















Anything LRG must be trill right!?

And the Tima Watch























A bit more "elegant" and it features an analog face and a digital face...AT THE SAME TIME!!! (im easily amazed...)

Yea, I still love watches obviously...(Christmas???)

Jeezy - Who Dat Video



The video is okay, but in NO WAY do I see Recession applying to this! Good job with your continuity Jeezy...

12/16/08

N*E*R*D* - Sooner or Later Video



One of my favorites on Seeing Sounds (thanks to a certain someone, who will know if she...actually reads my blog) no time for commentary now though...maybe tommorow

12/15/08

People Waste No Time...

For an incident that happened yesterday (look down) there are already so many (bad) parodies and spoofs.

Here is a short list:
The Original
Photobucket

Gotta Catch Em All!
Photobucket

Mario Kart!!!
Photobucket

If you can Dodge a Shoe...
Photobucket

These are pretty bad, can't wait to see what YouTube's gonna come up with though!

12/14/08

Bush is a Sole Survivor!



That dude is probably going to SuperJail for that but he did what a lot of people only do on blogs and told Bush whats up! (wait a minute Im a blogger!)

Gotta hand it to Bush though, all that male cheerleading must have gave him some quick reflexes because he dodged the hell out of that first shoe.

We Real Cool

THE POOL PLAYERS
SEVEN AT THE GOLDEN SHOVEL.

We real cool. We
Left school. We

Lurk late. We
Strike straight. We

Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We

Jazz June. We
Die Soon
- Gwendolyn Brooks

This is my favorite poem (ever.) and ever since I read it in the seventh grade, whenever I think about it, I feel a bit more enlightened.

And then hearing one of my favorite rappers, Lupe, reference it, I thought thats trill! Dont know why I just thought about it now, but I felt like I had to post it for you to read and not comment on... (i put < /sarcasm> there and blogger took it as actual code, which made me lmao)

SIDE NOTE:shouts out to Ms.Gordon, but if any Dinlocker students read this...you're probably already re-analyzing it.

Lego Albums

Apparently some...artist...re-made classic hip hop album covers with lego men (yea the little yellow dudes...that'll mean something in a minute)

Although some are good, and the fact that Im an artist (surprised I haven't said that in EVERY one of my posts) gives the creator some wiggle room...Some of them look nothing like the person on the cover or even resemble the cover.

For example:












-- Is it just me or do the LEGOutkast look like Jesus with an anchor shirt and Ted Turner dressed for a robbery?














-- Besides that mean ass grimace, does that LEGameO look anything like Game (and isn't Game shirtless compared to LEGameO

Incredible Fuckery...

that you can only see if you click this link (mainly because Im lazy right now)

My commentary on the subject would be something like I cant believe someone would actually have the audacity to do this with a straight face. Umm...who takes UrbanDictionary.com seriously (its seriously funny though)...come on Houston? with that whack ass slang that cop who distributed it should be shot.

You'll only understand those ramblings if you click the link and read the ghetto handbook (oops let it slip didn't I?)

Shoe of the Week 12

Before I forget to post it tomorrow (because I will) here is the twelfth shoe de la week.

PUMA 60TH ANNIVERSARY UNLIMITED HI




















I love both colors of them (black more though) and they look like you could rock em with skinny jeans (which most of us don't wear...).





















The silver Puma stripe thingie looks to be a lot more durable then regular fabric ones (which is a problem I am having with my Pumas) and the sole looks so much more helpful if you actually plan to run with them (and not fall...or get pushed into a pole WHILE running by your good friend Kenny)

I dont see much wrong with them except I don't know where to buy them so I'll end with that.

808s & Heartbreak Artwork by Fred Hart

So I was on GoWhere and saw this guy (Fred Hart) had made individual artwork for each song on 808s and Heartbreak (all 12 of em!) and I have to say, Im impressed for the most part!

Some of them get a little repetitive but that's a strategy sometimes (Im an artist, I would know). Here are a few of my favorites of the group (click on the link for the kitten kaboodle or however you say that shxt!)















Keri Hilson










































I've been waiting to post this. Keri Hilson is my kind of girl, tall, sexy, and she tell it like it is yo!

She's been starting to show up more and more so I feel like this is a good time to show her off (maybe I'll get some Google search love). I also remember reading somewhere that she said she'd never date an athlete or entertainer (which raises our (my) odds of success!)

And now the ever-essential eye candy:
