It never ceases to amaze me how many people decide the days right before an event are the optimum time to purcahse gifts and other items for that event. These same people are then amazed when the stores are out of stock of items, and quickly complain about lines being backed up and everything taking […]
2016 was a hell of a year. It had its good points, its bad points, and all in all, it was pretty much just like any other given year. The biggest element was about halfway through the year a focus change in my efforts from YouTube to this site proper. This was a change that […]
The holiday season is an incredibly mixed bag – deep down, I do enjoy this time of year, with classic movies and memories of years gone by, but at the same time it’s a point in the year that I can’t stand. Working in retail has a pretty negative effect on a persons love of […]
It’s coming down to the wire for the holiday season, and one thing that is invariably going to happen, and has already been happening day in, day in, the past few months is items being out of stock in stores. This is just how it works, and, amazingly, some people just don’t seem to grasp […]
Yep, that happened. During the chaos of Tommy Sotomayor DMCA takedown chaos on the Drunken Peasants youtube channel, we have Complex, an entertainment and news publication with a somewhat urban slant, filing a copyright claim resulting in the blocking of Drunken Peasants episode 309 worldwide. https://twitter.com/DrunkenPeasants/status/809472968938045440 I was only able to watch half the episode […]
File this one under news that reached me 2 weeks after the fact, in late November of 2016, the Shelter Object, a massive arch intended to seal the remains of Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Reactor 4 was successfully moved over the structure with the intent of forever sealing the damaged reactor and its deadly nuclear […]
Normally, following an event like the death of John Glenn, a blogger like me would share video of his Mercury flight. It is, of course, what he was most famous for, being the first American to orbit the Earth back in 1962. My personal experience with John Glenn, however, is a bit more unique – […]
Yesterday, December 7th, 2016, marked 75 years since the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the event which marked the direct entry of the United States into World War 2. Rather than talk about what Pearl Harbor is like now, or just cover the normal anniversary events, I thought I would share my perspective on the […]
This article crossed my radar the other day, and as someone who lives in Memphis, I always find these amusing, at best, at how just plain wrong they are, with regards to me and my life, about opinions on this city. In this case, as the title suggests, it’s things you have to explain to […]
As I have mentioned a few times before on here, I’m a big fan of a music genre known as “Eurobeat.” Imagine 80’s pop gone, well, a little insane, and you kind of have an idea on what Eurobeat is. If you are familiar with Italio Disco, then you know the basic sound already. Interestingly, […]
Some of you who follow my work on this site the past few months will notice that I often share YouTube videos, and provide some commentary or discussion surrounding it. The reason behind this is simple: The video, usually, interests me, and either I want to share it with you, or I want to provide […]
Star Wars is incredibly popular. That simple. Some of you out there may not like it, and I can understand that, but I know I, like many many others, am a fan, in fact, I just got some original LaserDisc copies the other day, that’s how much I do genuinely like the series. I’m not […]
I’ve mentioned before, primarily on my own podcast, that I absolutely love the YouTube channel “The Drunken Peasants.” This podcast, usually 2 hours in length, produced 3 times a week, has been one of my favorite things to watch online for over 2 years. As their slogan goes, “covering news from an altered perspective” they […]
Being the kind of person I am, when I go thrifting, I’m on the hunt for electronics. Hell, today I found a clock from the 60’s, an 80’s tape player AM/FM radio (that needs a new belt but otherwise has a perfect look to it for me) and a VHS rewinder (because who doesn’t need […]
Lewis’s Tech is somewhat of a legend among the anti-scammer community, and this video can quickly show you some reasons why. I’m sharing it not just for how fun this one is, but how quick it is to watch, at only 10 minutes, it goes over quite a bit. We have the usual remote support […]
