I forgot to mention last week that my parents bought me not one but two cookbooks. And the other one, entitled The Everything College Cookbook, had a simple lunch recipe for Frozen Fish Fajitas which sounded extremely delicious... at least for a starving college student. We bought a huge box of Albertsons-brand frozen fish sticks several weeks back, and as I was apparently the only one that was eating them (yes I do like to put fish sticks in my mouth), I needed a creative way to finish them off. I thought this recipe would be a perfect opportunity to fix that situation. The only thing I didn't have that the book calls for was tartar sauce. However I created a delicious, nutritious, and anvilicious way to get around that. Check it. Ingredients: 6 frozen fish sticks 2.5 tablespoons of ranch dressing 1 teaspoon of lime juice 1 teaspoon of lemon juice Tabasco sauce...

So that I wouldn't be completely hopeless when I started living on my own, my parents decided to buy me The Starving Students' Cookbook. As most recipes in cookbooks require that I actually have the ingredients in stock, I haven't been using it very much. However, my roommates and I recently did a huge Costco run, filling our two kitchens full of stuff that should last us a few months. And so, I decided to look through the book to make a good lunch. And I'm glad I did, because it recommended a recipe of which I actually had the necessary ingredients for it: English Muffin Pizzas. My recipe is slightly adapted from Dede Hall's original. Ingredients: 2 English muffins, cut in half tomato sauce (such as Ragú, for example) sliced onions and capsicum (of course, you can use whatever toppings you'd like) shredded cheese Italian seasoning Directions: Preheat toaster oven to...

I've reached a new stage of independence in my life. Halfway through my college career, I have kissed the dorms goodbye and now live in a frat house home with three of my fraternity brothers. What's nice about it is that I have way more living space, we have premium cable so that I can watch Rocko's Modern Life on TeenNick late at night, and there's no RAs to tell us we can't smoke hookah on the premises. However, the one setback to leaving the dorms is that I am no longer on a meal plan. Most of you probably think of this as a good thing, as most dorm food sucks and it's really expensive. However, in my personal opinion (and I'm not being paid to write this) the food at Chapman University's Randall Dining Center is usually quite delicious. More importantly, I am not a cook and I...

NOTE: This may not fit in with the usually family-friendly fare of my blog, but this puzzle is so confusing that I am willing to take the risk to write it anyways. (Hopefully my employers don't check my blog as often as they threaten claim to do.) Today a friend of mine showed me a fruity condom that someone gave him. I was absolutely stunned by this. Not so much at the fact that a fruity condom can exist but rather at the fact that it does exist. To put it bluntly... I can't think of a single reason why I would ever use a fruity condom. When I told my friend that, he looked at me strangely. And if you were staring me straight in the face rather than reading my yamblings, then you'd probably do the same. So let me explain. This is a classy blog, therefore I will...

Earlier this year I wanted to create the next big thing for social networking. My idea was a hybrid of Twitter and YouTube, in which you had 15 seconds to say whatever you wanted on your webcam and then it would get posted to the website. Then of course people could follow/subscribe to your posts. Sounds pointless? Probably. But imagine how addicting it would be. Unfortunately it seems that someone else has beat me to creating a new pointless social networking site that is too addicting to get off of. Remember that girl you have a crush on? The one you know you'll never talk to but you wish you could tell her how you feel about her? Wouldn't it be nice if you could "tweet" about her anonymously and hope she sees it? Apparently that's what Evan Reas thought when he created Like a Little. The concept of the...

I can remember the first time I ever watched Seinfeld. While I do not remember how old I was, I do remember what I watched and it was definitely the most random type of humor in existence (at least in terms of 90s humor, before the great Comedy Purge of 2002). It's a shame this show went off the air years before I could get into it. And Curb Your Enthusiasm is not quite the same thing... sometimes that show is just painful to watch... However, I recently discovered that Seinfeld has not been off the air at all. In fact, it recently put out its 21st season (I guess that makes it legal for the show to drink now). Due to budget cuts and NBC's tendency to fuck with people, they've moved from 22-minutes episode on television to 1-minute shorts on the internet. But that's not the only change....

This may be the first time ever that I'm yambling on a topic while it is still relevant at the time of posting. A few minutes ago I was informed that Christopher Nolan revealed the title of his third Batman movie. The potential blockbuster of summer 2012 is to be called The Dark Knight Rises. My first reaction: "Really?" Now I have a lot of respect for Nolan; I even consider him the Spielberg of our generation. However I am not a fan of this title. It's hard to describe what exactly I dislike about it. Maybe I feel it's just too similar to the title of the previous movie, and I'm scared this could cause confusion in future conversations: Person 1: Did you see that Dark Knight movie? Person 2: Yeah, I thought Heath Ledger was great in that. Person 1: No I meant Dark Knight Rises. Person 2:...

Remember last time how I said I would never return to Omegle? I lied. Here's some more wacky conversations I've experienced. I warn you, some of the language may upset you. But if you dare continue on, tell me if you get all the references. You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi! Stranger: hi You: hey Stranger: m/f You: depends... if i say male, will you disconnect from me? Stranger: yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh You: then i'm female Stranger: f you Your conversational partner has disconnected. ********** You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi! You: hi Stranger: hurensohn You: say what? Stranger: nbpikntrb#+pijnmtrbjm Stranger: gjerbmkebt Stranger: wj Stranger: ewbmvztfr ge You: i'm tired of your nonsense Stranger: dei muadda You: don't think i'll disconnect You: because that's a sign of defeat Stranger: fuck you You: you lose, sir Stranger: learn german Stranger: motherfucker You: i'm pretty sure "nbpikntrb#+pijnmtrbjm" is...

Hello my friends! It's been a long time since my last update, and I'm quite well aware of it. But it was a long and busy summer, and then I quickly transitioned into a long and busy semester back at school. But don't worry, my readers (if you do exist). I have been thinking about the blog. Constantly. However since there was such a long gap, I didn't want to make another post until I had something really interesting to yamble about. And I finally found it. Meet -M-. His name is Mathieu Chedid, but he goes by -M-. At least that's easier to pronounce than when Prince insisted his name was . Nonetheless, that's pretty pretentious of him. Imagine him going to the DMV and something like this happening. DMV Worker: Alright sir, you should be good to go... hmm... I noticed you didn't fill out your name. -M-:...

Today I was introduced to Final Fantasy. Okay, I wasn't introduced to it; I was aware of its existence. But I had never played any of the games or involved myself in its related media. Nor was I aware really of its storyline or general concept, other than the fact that it is a fantasy (duh) and there is fighting involved. But today I had my first exposure to it, watching Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, a CGI film based on one of the games... the seventh one I presume. Surprisingly I quote enjoyed it, despite not understanding much of the background story (and the fact that most non-Pixar and non-Dreamworks CGI films--to put it simply--suck). And then I discovered there are currently 14 different Final Fantasies. That's quite a lot, even though it's fifty less than Mario 64 (somewhere out there, a nerd is crying at my ignorance). This...
