AOL, er I mean, Aol. (<–note: that is not the end of my sentence.. that is their actual company name spelling now) released their newly updated bucket of fail logo today.� For whatever reason they decided that punctuation in the company name along with lower case letters will bail out the ship.

From Gizmodo: “Does your new bland logo�the one to which you switched today, with the annoying punctuation�come with a floppy disk? No? Whatever. I’m still not interested.”

My sentiments exactly.

TV + Newspapers = Fail.

TV headed the same way as newspapers soon? Wait newspapers are still around? Whatever. Anyway, this quote comes from Anne Sweeney, president of the Disney-ABC Television Group. Her daughter is off to college and says she doesn’t need a TV for her room, due to sites like Hulu and other streaming options:

“You’re going to have a television if I have to nail it to your wall.”

Doesn’t sound desperate at all. Hooray for dinosaurs!

The Mullet

The source of Jared Allen’s ability: his mullet.�� His quarterback sacking ability is directly proportional to the awesomeness of his mullet.� That is to say, he is nasty and I wish he was on the Patriots.� Except that stupid dance/celebration thing he does after each sack.� That’d have to go.� Mullet stays, celebration goes.

Old But Classic: BMX Fail

This is an old school youtube video, but I can never get enough of it.� The ending is what separates it from being a good video, and makes it a great video.� “Oh.. it’s broken..?”

Cat Care

A very helpful article for any cat owners out there, brought to you by Katie.

“Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to becoming a mature adult cat.”

“Shelter cats from bad backgrounds are prone to self-destructive behavior.”

Owning a cat is one of the worst things you can do to yourself. Here are some practical tips on how to go about it.

He Even Irons Better Than Other Men.

To quote Seinfeld; “I say this with an unblemished record of staunch heterosexuality.” Now I love Tom Brady as much as any straight male or female in the greater New England area.. but this is either indicative of him just kicking ass ironing, or us not having a chance at winning the Superbowl. I can’t decide which. I understand that even the best quarterbacks in the world have to have wrinkle free attire for a night out on the town or an important business meeting, and ironing your shirt certainly doesn’t make you a wuss.. but something about the way he is ironing this shirt, in this picture makes me question his ability to conquer the NFL. I know the lamb picture was probably worse, but still. C’mon.

Snowboarder Pwnage

The first minute of this video is pretty much the violent outtakes of the snowboarding video being promoted, rest is more snowboarder win. My reason for posting / if you are impatient fast forward to 1:00 minute in for one an entertaining quote.� Thanks to my snowboarding friend Bueno for the video.

Token White Guy

Brian Scalabrine.. so white. A man once loathed by all of Celtics fans far and wide for saddling the team with his absurd contract and uninspired mediocre performances. Someone I despised enough to create a drinking game spurred by his atrocious play and my attendance of a number of forgettable games. (rules: whenever Scals enters the game, you have to immediately chug your beer, and go get another one. reason being you don’t want to see him in the game.)

But with a championship and a couple of successful seasons under the belt, due in almost no part to him, all that has changed. People love Scals. People, white people, can relate to him. A little overweight, kind of awkward and somewhat amusing. And did I mention he was white?

Anyway, show your support (and apologies) for Scal by wearing this sweet shirt:
