Went and saw Devo at the Moore Theater in Seattle, back last Wednesday (11/9), which was totally awesome! Despite their age, those guys have still got it.
For this performance, they played the entirety of Freedom of Choice (the album), plus Gates of Steel, and Beautiful World. Booji Boy made an appearance for Beautiful World, which was awesome.
Note: I did not record the following clips.
At the very end, Boojie Boy opened a fanny pack and chucked handfuls of bouncy balls into the audience, and I managed to get my hands on one, heh!
At any rate, it was totally worth the money and the trouble to get there.

Will be a bit slow updating the happenings from Rainfurrest, have been having a series of aggravating problems slam me in the face as soon as I get home.
Namely, somebody hacked into my Paypal account and stole money from my bank to buy gold for WoW or something like that. Fortunately, after reporting it, Paypal swiftly came down on the case and it was resolved within hours. I'm also getting a full refund, so yay.
Beyond that, some of the most persistent scammers I've ever encountered got a hold of me at the same day. They kept pestering me to send somebody $2000 in a money order in order to claim some $5 million prize. I told them up and down that I knew it was a scam and I threatened to report them. That did not deter them. After two days, I had a new idea.
I piped this video into the receiver at full volume.
Whatever you do though, have the volume down if you watch it, it's kindof loud, heh.
At any rate, it was so successful, if I ever get hit with another phone scammer, I'm using this video on them, too.

Are any of you Devo fans? Especially my local friends. Just discovered they're back on tour, and will be in Seattle November 8th and 9th. Curious if there's anyone I could get to come with me to it, heh.

Stolen from Furaffinity.
Basically, you comment with one word, and I'll think up some way, however obscure, it relates to my life.
Ding!

I have beheld the funniest thing all month: An obese man beating two chickens together, to the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody. I require new pants.

More dark youtube-ness. This time, a fascinating claymation retelling of Mark Twain's 'Mysterious Stranger'. Apparently banned from TV due to being disturbing. :p
I'm not sure why I'm feeling like posting these things...Weird!

One of my big problems with humanity as a whole, or perhaps just our western culture, is that we continually commit what I call an 'Ultimate Arrogance'. We think so highly of ourselves and our accomplishments as a species, that the idea of encountering another intelligent, but physically different species is precluded by said race possessing inferior societal qualities. This is most often apparent in our fiction. Often, alien races are depicted as possessing what we would consider major societal faults that we, by that time, had long overcome. Examples include the Gowachin from Frank Herbert's ConSentiency novels, the standard 'Greys' of pulp science fiction (the typical, big black eyed, grey skinned humanoid aliens), and many aliens of the Star Wars universe. A lot these possess a pervasive culture that exemplifies a single mindset that, would be considered a single personality trait to an individual human. This can also bleed over into the furry fandom. Different species of 'furs' will sometimes be expected to always behave in a certain way, as dictated by our perception of the species in question. It's something I often find myself in conflict with, whenever presenting ideas for fictitious races to local peers, like at my college.

Going to post a link to one of the Rabbits shorts I mentioned earlier, in case anybody was curious.
Speaking of David Lynch, one of these days I want to sit through Eraserhead. The mutant baby terrifies the sh!t out of me, which naturally only makes me even more curious.

Any of you ever see David Lynch's 'Rabbits'? It's, probably one of the most unnerving films I've ever witnessed.

Just had to share, probably my favorite parody of the infamous Hotel Mario cutscenes.

I'm honestly glad to see the Inauguration. To be personally honest, I do not see him as some kind of messiah, nor do I see him as some kind of commie Satan. That really just blows my mind, how people keep insisting he's a communist. But people should remember, none of this deification that's been placed on Obama is of his own making. Time and again he reiterates and displays his humility, which I admire. I'm just glad to finally have a fresh breath of political air.
