Songs I Love: Interpol - "The Heinrich Maneuver" (2007)

Once again, the record company has disabled embedding on the official music video. It's definitely worth a look if you've never seen it.

Songs I Love: Coheed and Cambria - "A Favor House Atlantic" (2003)
I'm starting this new feature, Songs I Love, more for my benefit than yours. I'll often be reminded of a song I love that I haven't heard in a while or completely forgot about. Usually I forget them again just as quickly as I remembered. Not so anymore!
Though it's been out there a while, their song "Feathers" is getting a lot of airplay on Sirius AltNation lately. It's pretty poppy, much like their very radio-friendly jam I love, "A Favor House Atlantic" from 2003's In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3. Good eye, sniper. (The record company disabled embedding of the official music video.)

Note: I had to make up a new term today for a certain co-worker based on his lack of knowledge in the fundamentals. Nouveau net. Like nouveau riche except with the internets instead of money.
He tries to compete with the King but has never heard of a lot of the classics that true netizens are all over. Over the months, I discovered that he'd never heard All Your Base, Numa Numa, Ceiling Cat and many others that are more than a few years old. Do yo research, son. I been havin' memes.

Upon further research, the only other video he uploaded to YouTube was a backyard wrestling video in which he whooped ass as Lunchbox.
I subscribed to his channel, thinking nothing would ever come of it. Then I went to YouTube today and practically came in my pants upon the realization that he uploaded a new video.
And it doesn't disappoint. Please enjoy the latest addition from Jesse Hern aka BigMastadon aka Lunchbox aka my hero.

Preash: Boone's Ongoing Injury Saga
I had to take Boone back to the vet yesterday morning to have his paw rebandaged and his stitches assessed. Unfortunately, the night before, I made the mistake of trusting him and not putting on his e-collar before I went to bed. (Fun Fact: e-collar stands for Elizabethan collar. It has nothing to the with the internets, as anyone under the age of 80 would probably assume upon hearing "Do you need an e-collar?")
Queen Elizabeth was a notorious wound licker
When I woke up, I immediately noticed his bandages were gone. They were strewn across the room. And he ripped his stitches out. $350 wasted. I'm an idiot for trusting him.
However, the cut looked better and he wasn't in pain. The vet said there's no need for new stitches, rebandaged him and set us on our way. She said the e-collar has to stay on 24/7. The only time he can have it off is when he's in my lap. So he's been riding fly with the e-collar ever since.
It doesn't seem to bother him too much anymore. I guess he's kinda gotten used to it. He trips over it when he gets going to fast or tries to sniff the grass while he's walking. It scrapes the walls and furniture as he walks around the apartment but he doesn't seem to care. Now when he's following me or standing by me waiting for me to drop food I know he's there because I can feel the e-collar jabbing me in the leg. I'm pretty sure he enjoys that feature. A tactile reminder to "accidentally" drop a piece of turkey when I'm making a sandwich.
We do get a lot of "aaawwww"s from hot chicks driving by with their windows down. Bonus.
Click to enlarge
Because it will take weeks for the cut to fully heal, he'll be rocking e-collar for quite a while longer. And looking half-retarded the whole time. Maybe I can figure out a crunk way to pimp his e-collar. Ideas?

From BuzzFeed:
"Clare Werbeloff is an overnight sensation in Australia following her deeply racist eyewitness report of a shooting (in case you're not familiar with the term, “Wog” is an ethnic slur in Australia). Apparently there are already Clare Werbeloff T-shirts floating around, and Clare has hired a publicist to take advantage of her newfound notoriety. Welcome to the wonderful world of being famous for being stupid, Clare."

The latest group of the NBA's "Where Amazing Happens" commercials are badass.
If you haven't seen them, you're missing out (and assumably effeminate). They start off with an empty arena. Then players and refs gradually fade in as they become part of what you eventually realize is a classic moment in playoff history. Then the crowd fades in as the play is completed and history is made. Then they fade back out, piece by piece, to the simplicity of the empty arena again. An inspired concept executed perfectly.

Movies: G.I. Joe Trailer
Why isn't there anything on TV to look forward to on Sunday nights? It's the most depressing night of the week.
Couldn't they put a show on that you can look forward to to distract you from the impending five days? And, more signifcantly, the impending five nights of stifling the urge to do anything outside of the realm of your typical routine because you know you'll just hate yourself that much more when the clock radio sounds off at 7:33, just after the chorus and into the second verse of Flo Rida's "Low."
HBO used the be the sh*t on Sunday nights. Not so much now. Isn't Mad Men on Sunday nights? Can't wait for that to come back.
Amid that depression, I turned over to King of the Hill for some wholesome, relatable comedy. And during a commercial break, I saw the trailer for G.I. Joe.
HFS! The trailer does a great job of pulling you in by not even mentioning that it's G.I. Joe until the last 30 seconds of the 2-minute trailer. They just show one badass shot after another. The suits make humans superhuman!
