I know that I have officially thrown down the gauntlet and challenged Warren Ellis to a fight but he is still a great comic writer. He’s got a newish web comic called Freakangels that updates every Friday. Do yourself a favor and go read it from the start.
How in the world, with all my internet savvy, did I ever manage to live in a world where I didn’t know about instructables.

Here is the full text of the Patton Oswalt Star Wars bit. It is hilarious but NSFW.

So I am dreaming,
and my girl is at my front door,
no reason,
it’s just a Tuesday
and she has the key,
to many things,
currently every thing I call home,
including her.
So I am awake
and she is sleeping,
after a long and winding talk,
from philosophy,
to Babylon 5 and more,
I have this quiet moment,
I realize,
I love it
when she softly snores.
I am both a book-keeper’s son, and I don’t want to be taken alive.
I don’t know about that hurting no one bit, I can think of a few people I would like to kick in the shins, or just generally beat up. I think, even though he is a boxer trained at whuppin’ midgets (i.e. people his size) I could take Uwe Boll.
In fact I throw the gauntlet down…I will fight you Uwe (as a rep of RevSF if they let me); and I will stomp you like a bug.
Also I would like to renew my combat card to fight Warren Ellis.
Kind of because he is an (entertaining) douchebag, and someone needs to have ridiculously challenged him to hand to hand combat as well.
So Joe send out the invites, I will fight both of those punks. I will even wear my luchador mask.
I just watched the Smallville season ender. The show ended in a cloud of meh. Several very predictable things happened, of which I thought the Lana voiceover vanishing act was the lamest. The show is frustrating to me on several levels. If Clark is being menaced on all fronts where the hell is his protector Martian Manhunter? Has his disappearance ever been explained? Plus I am getting really tired of the Kryptonian device deus ex machina. After all the coolness with the proto Justice League and so on for the show to spiral into this mess is really sad. Especially in light of shows like LOST that realize they are having some problems and turn around and fix them. Smallville better seriously get their act together when they come back for the next season.
My immediate response to a zombie uprising.
-Grab the Lorcin from the closet (sure it is a crap 9mm but it was cheap and
fun to plink rounds off, back off)
-Grab the ghurka and the survival pack and head for the car.
-go to brother Craig’s pad while calling zombie fighter chika one—Becky.
-Team up, run on the Walmart, kill anything that gets in our way.Stock up
-Head to the hills, kill all in way.
-Continue to kill all deadites.
Things I want to do to every celebrity I just read on the list of outrageous demands.
-Look them in the eye, constantly…agressively.
-Call them by name, often.
-If they have a ‘room schema’ give them the opposite.
-Spill drinks on them unapologetically.
-Kill the breakers during thier ‘ground breaking’ performance.
-Be finished with them, convince others to be finished with them and cut thier self importance off.
So many others need the money and resources these jackals devour.
