This is how I first encountered this speech pattern meme-thing in the wilds of soup. It made no sense and every time I saw it, I giggled like a small, feeble-minded child. The absurdity! The expressions! And oh how the mind delighted over the many awkward possibilities of the missing verb. This pattern, “I accidentally [...]

If someone reliable could tell me when in the future films would become solely based on finances it’d certainly save me the hassle of looking up articles on the Internet. If someone told me it would be next week I wouldn’t be shocked in the least since in it’s current state it’s just about at [...]

Evening children, welcome to Clippings & Scribblings, a news entry with editorials. I’m Sketch E. Whiteface, and I’m an alcoholic… err, close enough.
In the musical metallurgy realm, if not already aware, the masked nine-piece band Slipknot is back and with full force with a new album dubbed “All Hope Is Gone” coming out this Tuesday. [...]

I believe that long shots in action movies are one of the biggest “fuck you”s to Hollywood. I recently rented “Death Sentence” which stars Kevin Bacon and is directed by James Wan (of “Saw” fame, not the shitty sequels.) For those unexposed to the movie, the story takes place around a white-collar family man Nick [...]

My awesome Lorem Ipsum shirt provided by TeeFury, makers of fine, rare designer tshirts.
First off, it was great to see everybody again! I had missed the last two Media Makers events and kicked myself pretty hard both times. Thanks to my cat and the fact that I have a memory like a (rusted) steel trap, [...]

Gentle readers, I must profess to you at this time my ignorance. A while back I posted a video by a band called Scatterbrain for their song Don’t Call Me Dude.
A portion of that song references a classic Three Stooges bit of which I knew nothing! I didn’t grow up in a household that really [...]

Perusing through my feeds this morning, as I am wont to do, I discovered a blurb in Wired’s The Underwire about the whole MST3K crew putting in an appearance at this year’s Comic Con! Not only that, but they plan to do a live Rifftrax session of Plan 9 From Outer Space as well.
Then the [...]

Ordinarily not something one would expect to be a terribly interesting subject. Yet thanks to the overwhelming madness that powers Ectomo, and the Savannah College of Art and Design, I have been given the opportunity to share this story.
In this film, titled The Sailor’s Curse Avoids Drowning, a sailor who has narrowly escaped the sinking [...]

Now here is a bit I haven’t done in quite some time! The Words To Know series had all but died. Tonight I feel like shaking the dust off, brushing away the cobwebs, and putting WTK to work once more. I’ve decided to go easy on the old girl, by featuring two terms, and peppering [...]

Well, I’m just back from the first ever NH Media Makers get together. What a terrific idea, and what a great turn out. I honestly didn’t know what to expect, both in people or content, despite the post at the actual NH Media Makers site detailing who would be there and what to expect!
