Hot: Good morning, shoppers. As usual December has rolled around which of course gives us the lovely sentimental holiday known as Christmas. And as we all know one of the many traditions that is a part of the spirit of Christmas that isn’t mass consumerism is movies. The kind that are sweet, loving, caring. the [...]
Hot: Well, it’s that time of year again. Holiday Fun Time! And, if you’re anything like me, you usually wait until the weekend before your holiday of choice to get your shopping done… er, started. You brave the mall with a bunch of crazed maniacs and a hangover, and inevitably, you never quite find what [...]
Hot: In the very broad strokes that I have always heard, the Christian calendar period referred to as Lent is about giving up things that are bad for you, to spiritually improve yourself by ditching nasty habits, etc. A laudable goal, but for those of us who aren’t Christian, it seems redundant in the light [...]
Hot: Now go read some James Joyce and get drunk! Then after you’re drunk, read some of the dirty letters he wrote to his lady. Ooh la la! This message inspired by: Shelfari and the urge to get drunk.

You know, when children were all extraordinarily hydrocepalic and wore thicker eyeliner and more rouge [...]
Hot: I went in to reproduce the first wallpaper in a more common format and went and made a different one entirely. Luckily for you this one is in 1024×768, which is much more common than the previous one which I have yet to doctor into something more practical. For this I found myself inspired [...]
Hot: Let it never be said that I throw complete disfavor upon arbitrary, stupid holidays based around the martyrdom of one of three possible guys in order to overwrite pagan tradition. Far from it, any excuse to get more color in my dreary winter, and of course free candy, is a good excuse. That said [...]
Hot: So I was having a pretty good day today. Surprisingly good in fact, all things considered. When WHEB had to go and ruin it for me. Again. This time, it wasn’t the overabundance of sloppy-joe instigating Herpes-Crisps (Godsmack), nor was it a double shot of Nickleback. No, this was something even more asinine. Today, [...]
Hot: I’ve been meaning to get to slapping my holiday list up here – not so much in the hopes of getting the gifts that are on my list – so I can do some slobberingly glorifying reviews of some of my favorite things. The first thing worth noting is this great article on the [...]
