Pitchfork Am Cry
via The Somewhat Manly Nerd by CajoleJuice on January 31, 2008
After being exposed to my music taste, most of the editors at Pitchfork wouldn’t know whether to laugh, cry, or hurl. On the other hand, I don’t write elitist bullshit like this:And “The Funeral” is a song that people connect to, as reader emails continue to attest. So long as it doesn’t end up soundtracking some crummy indie movie, it’ll be ours forever.That’s from their “Top 100...

My Favorite Entertainment of 2007
via The Somewhat Manly Nerd by CajoleJuice on February 01, 2008
Massive blog post. Wrote up a lot of it while I was still working. Yeah.MOVIES No Country for Old MenFirst hour and half is some of the most tense and masterful filmmaking I’ve ever seen - which is enough to make it one of the best movies I’ve seen this year. Javier Bardem pretty much locked up the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, as he is the scariest villain in a film since arguably...

The Aftermath
via The Somewhat Manly Nerd by CajoleJuice on February 05, 2008
The failure of the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII has sent ripples through the fabric of America and has raised many questions not only in my mind, but in the minds of all football fans. I’m going to try to go through some of them here.Did we just see the end of the Patriots dynasty?The Patriots defense is old, and it’s what ultimately failed them. All they needed to do was stop Eli Manning from...

In Case You Missed It…
via The Somewhat Manly Nerd by CajoleJuice on February 06, 2008
…like I did…a late-night feud was finally settled last night. (Honestly, after watching all the videos in succession, all you need to watch is the final one. But I already posted all the others, so whatever.)A feud had been going on for a while between Conan O’Brien, Stephen Colbert, and Jon Stewart. A little fun while the writers are striking.

GAF Movies of the Year
via The Somewhat Manly Nerd by CajoleJuice on February 07, 2008
GAF has been doing a yearly vote on the Games of the Year for at least 4 years now. Each year, the amount of votes has grown exponentially, with the leading vote-getter this year (Super Mario Galaxy) getting over 5,000 points, or the equivalent of 500 first-place votes. I decided to follow the format and do a Movies of the Year thread over on the Off-Topic side. I have to say I’m pretty damn...

Insomnia
via The Somewhat Manly Nerd by CajoleJuice on February 07, 2008
Tumble through the internet for an hour or two, writing blog entries, watching videos, chatting incessantly with people thousands of miles away. Realize it’s way too fucking late. Close the laptop, hit the pillow, and wish for instant unconsciousness. Still awake after a minute. Two minutes. Thoughts fill the brain. Hey, Veronica never replied to my other email. Should’ve asked her a...
