"Lindvall’s performance as host will inevitably be compared to her forebear, Heidi Klum, but that’s not fair, as they each have their own distinct qualities. Heidi Klum is puckish, incisive, poised, and funny, while Angela Lindvall is the host of Project Runway All Stars."

I mainly pay about 1/4th attention to Project Runway when it’s on in the background, but I still love reading John Teti’s reviews. I’m disappointed to hear he’s taking a break, but you know, I’d rather not kill people due to fatigue.

WagJag - $10 for $20 towards Dining at IHOP in Niagara Falls
I don’t even know what to say about this one…
So I was going to write a brief thing complaining about the new Subway/Xbox contest in Canada where one of the prizes is 100 Microsoft Points, which is ridiculous because everything on Xbox is denominated in multiples of 80 MSP (= 1USD) or occasionally 40 MSP, and clearly some Subway marketing exec said “We can’t give away 80 points! That’s not a nice round number!” Then I won 100 Microsoft Points, so I’ll just shut up now.
"Of course, even the most ardent of Rampage defenders have to admit that the game gets very, very repetitive from there, a brainless procession of smash-and-grab missions that is, nevertheless, way better than talking to your dumb parents. Oh, you want me to mow the lawn, Dad? THIS SOLDIER IS YOU AND NOW I AM EATING YOU."

I was in a game lobby last night that contained the following gamertags:
TURDCUTTER23

POOP IN UR PIE 666
And featured the musical stylings of a very drunk southern girl rapping, “Bitches ain’t shit but hos and tricks.” Over and over and over and over again.
Cyberpunk novels all lead me to believe there would be more sexy hackers and glowing information at this point and less… POOP IN UR PIE.
I figure the reason I don’t play a lot of FPS games, especially in random lobbies is that I’d lose even quicker by spending all my time in the File Complaint screen rather than playing…
"If there were a late-night comedy show completely run by comedy writers, without any interference from a host, producer, or network, that show would probably be called The Darkest and Most Impossibly Horrible Things You Can Imagine, Presented as Comedy. Every sketch would end with a gunshot or an infant’s stroller engulfed in flames, and the show would be canceled halfway through its opening titles. That’s because most comedy writers are so inured by humor that only the most shockingly toxic ideas can achieve the proper velocity to penetrate their indifference."
