Beeblo

Pirate vs. Ninja

Contributor: Joel Edelman

I bet this guy loves the movie Weird Science, despite it being older than he is.

Beeblo is some no-good high school punk, and on Pirate vs. Ninja, he sings about the things that 16-year-old boys think about: girls, LiveJournal and pirates.

"Up at Six (Speed Dial)" is a fast-paced romp through what must be a typical day in the life of Beeblo. It's a lot of fun.

Do we need 15 tracks? Sure, if they're all good. They aren't. Eleven would have been fine. Do we really need "Pirate Ninja" and "Ninja Pirate"? At least there is not a song called "This Is a Song." Beeblo is saving that for his greatest hits album. You know how bands always add one new song to those so people have to buy it? Yeah. That's what he is doing.

"My Computer" is a love song directed at his computer. Sure. I love mine, too.

"Livejournal" is one of the best songs ever. I can't stand LiveJournal. I can't stand the caliber of people that use it. I can't stand what they talk about on there. I can't stand that people just don't seem to care that anybody can see what they are talking about. But of course the lonely single men that live in their parents' basements love this stuff. It gives them what they want: 14-year-old girls disclosing the dirt. And that is what "Livejournal" is about. I love this song.

I bet Beeblo is a nice guy. I hope he doesn't fuck up his life in college smoking weed and getting drunk. I would be worried if I were his parents.

The Crown is moving

So I am finally accomplishing the lifelong goal of having my own TV show, which thanks to the Internet is entirely too easy. I am expecting to move all my comedic stylings to my new site, so I don't think I will be here as often as I was. Don't worry. I'll still be with Agouti. But I'll be blogging at my new site:

Yeah. I already have a hit show. Or something like that. I am uploading the first episode now, and you will get to read all about it on my new site when it's done. I originally got broadband because I thought it would ban broads from using the Internet, but now I see there are better uses for it.

It's not always Fox News Channel that has bad reporting

Check out this headline from Yahoo!'s home page:

"Oil Rises Above $74 a Barrel"

Considering it's been above $74 for most of the past week, this is a very misleading headline. When it was $78 per barrel, that would have been the time for this type of headline.

Speaking of which, because of a recent pig-weighing scandal, the county fair has adopted a new slogan to get people to come back out:

"Fair, and balanced!"

It's a 20-cent listing day on eBay

Tomorrow is, too. Any auction or fixed-price listing that starts before midnight Pacific tomorrow night will be just 20 cents to list. What a freakin' deal. If it weren't so damn hot, I'd do something about it.
