Apparently he'll be co-producing a show for Spike TV as well, "Manformation."
Well maybe not, it seems to be in some kind of TV show limbo or something? Details are here: Big news from the main man.

Anyway if it does go through at some point, I for one will be sure to watch.

 

And I agree with his lofty opinions about Maroon 5 and Coldplay. ;)
Yeah, that part was pretty good too. Right nice of him to pick some other bands instead of reaching into the standard Internet hate machine grab bag full of Justin Beiber, Nickelback, Miley Cyrus, and the Jonas Brothers.

 

The best show in the universe is Mystery Science Theater 3000.
That's just the title of the show that the creator of the show gave to his show. This thread is about said show with that name, not for discussing which show you think is the best.

Indeed. He says he's working on a new book as well, all about grading more child artwork and other such things. Day one preorder for me. :D

 

Details about that at the bottom of this page: Big news from the main man.

 

Also for those of you sad people who haven't seen his children's artwork reviews, bask in the greatness:

Yeah, he's only made one update in 2010 so far, and it was his april fools page. Hopefully he'll be updating more with the Youtube channel though...

 

Here ya go Vyrastas ;)

 

The iPhone is a piece of shit, and so is your face.

 

No, I'm not going to get an iPhone, quit emailing me about it. I'm not getting one because I already have a phone that's better: it's called the Nokia E70, it's the pinnacle of human achievement, and I love it more than my family:

You've probably never heard of the E70 because Nokia's marketing team is busy finding every last dick in the universe to suck, so I'm going to do their job for them and tell you about this product. And no, I'm not being paid to do this. I'm just tired of the iPhone fanboys shooting huge sticky wads and high-fiving each other (literally) over their stupid cellphones.

 

First of all, the E70 has a full keyboard, not some shitty stripped down, tap-and-pray smudgy piece of shit. Nokia uses a technology that's even more advanced than the iPhone's tap screen, allowing you to actually feel the keys you press as you're pressing them! The technology is called "tactile response," and it allows you to do things like dial a phone number without staring at your screen like a shit-chucking ape. In fact, every other cellphone ever made has this technology, sometimes called "buttons."

This keyboard will not only stomp your colon, but the colons of distant relatives of the human species such as lagomorphs, and hypothetical colons of children you haven't even had yet. Want to type a backslash? No problem. Ampersand? You bet your ass. On an iPhone, you have to press an additional button that opens up an alternate keypad that will allow you to type numbers and punctuation. So typing something as simple as elipses (...) requires you to tap your finger 9 times. Enjoy your phone, losers! People like me who have shit to do will stick to a keyboard that doesn't have its lips wrapped firmly to the user-interface equivalent of a throbbing dong:

When the iPhone was first announced, CEO Steve Jobs spewed enough BS to cover a football field full of babies 3 feet deep in bullshit, which sounds cool because he could have potentially murdered a football field full of babies, but he passed on this opportunity by introducing the phone instead. He claimed that the phone was three devices in one: an iPod, a phone, and an "Internet communications device." Oooh, an Internet communications device?! AWESOME!

 

http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/images/holy_shit_iphone2.gif

 

It's not three devices in one any more than my laptop is you morons. Using Jobs' loose definition of what constitutes a separate device, technically my laptop can be considered 8 devices in one:

 

 

A clock

A calculator

An "Internet communications device"

A phone (I can make voice calls with my modem)

A pornographic media storage device

A video player

A word processor

And an "iPod" (see below)

There's no such thing as an iPod. The word "iPod" is a marketing tool for a hard drive with software that plays mp3s. Yeah, doesn't sound so sexy now, does it you chimps? And an "internet communications device" is officially the douchebaggiest way of saying "it has a browser." So actually it's just a phone that plays mp3s and has a browser. SNORE.

 

The Nokia E70 not only plays mp3s, video, has a full browser and Wi-Fi, IMAP and POP3 email, and Google Maps, but you can even run terminal software to telnet or SSH into remote servers. What that means in non-geek is that my phone is invincible. I can literally do anything. I can reboot my web server if I want, and sometimes I do just because I can:

All of this power from a phone that's over a year old, and it only costs $360. Even the browser kicks ass:

Here's a non-biased, side-by-side comparison of some key features of each phone:

 

iPhone | Nokia E70

Resolution: 320x480 | 352x416

Storage: 4 or 8 gigs (fixed). | Unlimited. The E70 can use hot-swappable 2 GB mini SD cards, so you can have as much storage as you want.

Can customize ringtones with your own mp3s: No | Yes

Can record video: No | Yes

Screen turns into a smudgy piece of shit after a few minutes of use: Yes | No

Can send MMS messages: No | Yes

You have to send your phone to Apple when the battery dies and risk getting your phone lost, stolen, or damaged in transit: Yes. | No.

Plays MP3s: Yes | Yes

Holds your phone hostage to Apple for new software updates because Apple won't allow everyone to develop applications for it: Yes | No

Voice dialing: No | Yes

Can record voice: No | Yes

Instant messaging: No. | Yes.

Can't do fundamental tasks like copy & paste text: Yes. | No. Double negative, bitches!

 

There you have it: the most objective comparison of two cellphones ever made. I think I'll take the rest of the afternoon off and copy and paste text on my cellphone because I can.

 

4,925,285 people who bought an iPhone hadn't heard of the Nokia E70 until now because Nokia's marketing team is too busy tossing salad to get the word out.
