Humor sites abound

I really need to write about X-entertainment , Something Awful , I-Mockery , Sean Baby , and Maddox . Yeah, with the millions of visitors they have each week, they certainly need someone like me to boost their traffic some more.

Humor sites are as rampant in the internet as blogs and podcasts are today, but the five sites above are some of the best. I know there's more out there, these are just my favorites that I want to share. After all, why create a personal blog if it will only be called a "manga scanlation blog?" Hmm, but that's for another post - boy, I'm so easily distracted.

I'm so addicted to these sites especially this depressing year when I have a bit of health problems pounding my body. As you can see, this post is going however which way I want it to go, 'coz last I look, this is still my personal site and not some "manga scanlation blog." Yeah, the articles are actually well written in a laugh out loud, cynical way, of course, it's not that they'd win an award for writing but nevertheless, they know what they are doing, unlike someone named Bastich who writes a blog that is about "manga scanlation."

Hey, look up in the sky! It's a shameless plug of my new pet project GodsWords . Yep, for no cost at all, you can visit my site and read some of the most inspirational biblical verses; or better yet just go to http://www.biblegateway.com , read and memorize the whole bible and forget about my site.

Wow, look at the amount of nonsense you can fit in less than 5 paragraphs.

Edsa 20th and martial law

FM
The rallies yesterday to commemorate Edsa People Power I was rudely dispersed by authorities. Because of a declaration of a state of emergency, for which Gloria still needs to explain why, protesters were water-cannoned.
TV news interviews military leaders and were told that only 2 military people were caught defecting, or whatever the hell they call it. Why would 2 officials merit a declaration of any emergency at all?
Very nice, Gloria. People Power is now being celebrated in its 20th anniversary but no president has ever stopped its celebration except for you. And considering that Edsa I was about standing up and fighting an oppressive regime.
Here's another crap: First posted 02:19am (Mla time) Feb 25, 2006
Cops enter Tribune office, get copies of mock-up issue

The last time I remember that cops were allowed to do this was when that guy above was still prez.

GodsWord

It's not exactly GodsWords, the title of my new site is God's words, but hey, I just need to WIKIFI it for TiddlyWiki. Yeah, this is my first attempt to make a site about the gospel - 'coz you're just not self-righteous enough when you don't have a website full of scriptures.

It's funny how you're always stereotyped as a self-righteous jerk when you're interested in salvation and the bible. Ass, dick, pussy, turd, fuck! Fuck you, assholes! Is that self-righteous enough for you? Now I bet I'm damed to hell.

Awright! Now I'm gonna be labeled a backslider and a hypocrite. Sigh, we can't please 'em all, huh? C'mon, visit my Christian site here: http://www.freewebs.com/wordsofgod/ or here: http://tinyurl.com/ld9mv .

Manga scanlations

I'm not gonna discuss the quasi-legality or the morality of manga scanlations or fansubs because it has been done to death already. Simply put, my decision of not putting any links to scanlation for every manga that I will review here in the future is not about any other reason other than my preference.

That said, you can still search for scanlation links in the archives, or, for goodness sake, use either the search bar on the top of this blog or the one on the side bar to keep you from reloading my archived pages 10 times before you find the links you need. And yes, this really happened (you know who you are). I see one IP, the same freaking IP address, loading my page 10 times to search manually for Beck scanlation links. Spare yourselves, use the damn search tools.

Tutorial to Bastich's blog's search bars:

For the top search bar just use it like how you use Google [e.g. beck manga scanlation]. For the side bar Picosearch (a more comprehensive search of this site) please use one or two keywords to find a link or article you need [e.g. beck].

And that rounds up this post.

Magic 8-ball tells all


Image Hosted by
ImageShack.us

I went to this site: http://8ball.tridelphia.net/ - a page with a question form that answer using the original replies of the real Magic 8. Here's some questions I asked, and the replies I got:

1. Am I gay? - Outlook Not so good
2. Am I crazy? - My sources say No
3. Will Gloria finish her term? - Better not tell you now
4. Will Nydia become a business woman? - You can count on it
5. Is there a GOD? - My reply is No
6. Are you for real? - It is decidedly so
7. Is it a good idea to get married in 2007? - It is most likely
8. Should I kill them all? - Signs point to Yes
9. Is it good to buy Apple stock? - YES
10. Is Ali the greatest? YES

And in conclusion, the 8-ball was a fun distraction for a few minutes. You can never guess what the ball's reply is, however, that's just natural for an application programmed to reply at random, 'coz if it wasn't at random then it's pointless. But I really did not need to point that out, it's just that I'm lazy thinking of some comment to fill this paragraph.

Sena is Eyeshield 21

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

That's the Devil Bat's American Football star running back. An awesome 4.2 second 40-yard dash earned him the notoriety in the open field. But life has not always been like this for Sena, at barely 5 feet tall, he was always being bullied by his classmates. He was just a lame gopher for the school's bigger students, and worst of all, he was always being defended by a girl. Poor Sena.

How did he become the bad ass Eyeshield 21, University of Notre Dame hero with the killer tackle? You have to read the manga, or watch the (much disliked) anime. I must say that this is the funniest sports themed manga since Slam Dunk. Well, not that I have a library of sports themed manga...

You can read Eyeshield 21 in Viz's monthly Shonen Jump.

Back to Writely

So there I was eating cup noodles during one of my mid-nighty breaks. Then out pops one of my long lost friend (one of the truest). I was tired and lethargic. Dang, I didn't get to sleep at all that shift but I felt refreshed because of his PMs. Let me share with you a snippet of our little get-together YM conference. Hold the Kleenex, this ain't a tear-jerker. It's just a conversation among long lost friends getting together again.

Don't make mistakes like this in war


RAMBO NEEDS NO ARMOR, SISSY!!!

Yeah, dammit!

That's because it's the movies--Hollywood magic, suspension-of-disbelief crap, and all of the other bull that comes with the brand. Unfortunately, real life is generally a one-shot-kill world where one of the most important gear a soldier must have is body armor .

Australian troops at risk.

The reports reveal that faulty equipment is a more serious and widespread problem than has been admitted by the Government, at times jeopardizing the operations and safety of troops.

A defense spokesman yesterday defended the performance of the defense Materiel organization, the agency that buys combat gear, saying it had followed "strict government procurement guidelines".

"Army is committed to continual development and improvement of combat clothing and personal equipment," he said.

The documents warn that the new combat jackets issued to troops not only failed to offer camouflage protection but were "highly visible". "It appears as a bright glowing beacon when observed through night-fighting equipment," the reports say.

What the hell!? Glow-in-the-dark combat armor? Sad but true. Stupidity? You know, I never once in my life believed that the Philippines is the only country deep in corruption. Stupidity by the Australian army? No, I don't think so. Something this stupid must have very greedy fingerprints all over it.

Do we need another one?



Really, do we need another clone?

I found a website of this guy named Derick who blatantly ripped off some of the style of the super bad ass pirate, Maddox. And get this, he's hosting his site on Geoshitties--haha, what a laugh. His site is so sucky with white background and black texts. I got one thing to say to you: Dude, if you are gonna rip off someone, make sure you go all the way.

2 thumbs down to you! Please send hate mail to this guy.

Anyway, I'll get back to reading Something Awful and I-mockery .

AnotherBlogPost



I found this great software called TiddlyWiki . This small app is a simple, self contained, HTML file coded using CSS and Javascript. It is very small but this app is made to make a simple client-side WIKI, where, unlike other WIKI programs, you need not install anything on your server .

TiddlyWiki was indeed made to make a WIKI but this app can also be used as a web site. I was trying to make my own WIKI for work and I made a simple WIKI in under 10 minutes max. I can't say that TW is a full-fledged Content Management System, but TW is really fit to host Microcontent like tidbits of unorganized data.

Anyway, go visit TW's homepage. It is made using TW so you can see how usefull it will be for your microcontent needs.

Huddle up


Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
I wrote this article , 'coz I was pointing out that we don't need to host the SEAG 'coz the money is better spent on food and education. I also lambasted no-talent, basketball players because of their astronomical salaries. Here's a comment by one of them sports sympathizers:

mother fucker go to hell!!!!!!!!! suck your own dick and lick your balls!!! your just jealous of this basketball stars because they earn money 5 time that you do and they get all the girls!!! I pity you cause your life is full of hatred and jealousy

Just for fun, I'm gonna temporarily acknowledge that Mister Anonymous (I'm assuming it's a he) here is not a retard. I'm going to answer Anonymous' profound declarations with my meager intellect, point for point.

1. mother fucker go to hell!!!!!!!!!

- Ok, can you give me the address to hell? I'll go there immediately so I can tell your father the stuff that you've been posting in some blog about your mother.

2. suck your own dick and lick your balls!!!

- Hmmm, no capitalisation and multiple exclamation marks. There's definitely a trend going on here. This suggestion is so full of wisdom that when you really contemplate it for about an hour, I swear, you'd think it's the stupidest thing you've ever read.

3. your just jealous of this basketball stars because they earn money 5 time that you do and they get all the girls!!!

- I must admit that indeed, I am jealous of these basketball players. While they're putting a rubber ball inside a round metal and elbow rubbing with the beautiful celebs, “More than 15 million people in rural Philippines are dying of hunger." Imagine the things that I could've done if I had their salaries.

Yep, they do get all the girls, that's why they need to enter showbiz after they retire to pay for annulment, child support, and attorney's fee for bigamy charges.

4. I pity you cause your life is full of hatred and jealousy

- Oh, thank you for pitying me, great one. You seem to know so much about my life, care to write my biography?

Ah, I'm glad I finished that. And in conclusion, I have objectively read Mr. Anonymous' comment, weighed it against my meager intellect and came up with the assumption that--yes--Mr. Anonymous... You are a retard.
