02:43 pm - A Very Short Movie Review I know I have lots of stuff to update, including various protests and my mother's recent injury. I will get to that shortly. However, I just wanted to share something with you all. I've seen the work print of Wolverine, everyone has. There is an entire group out there who hates News Corp and thus the bootleg was passed around like a 25 cent whore. So, without further adieu, I shall spoil the movie for you all: Have fun! -- Jordan Current Mood: busy

04:09 am - One of the many, MANY reasons why I don't Vote or watch "Real News". I always get picked on shit because everyone wants simple stupid answers even though life is not like that. Thus, because the News media likes to think like us to get money, politics and the news media turn every issue into a "yes" or "no" question. This is exactly why the founding fathers wanted a multiparty system, because once the extremest run the show, everyone is fucked. Left. Right. Liberal. Conservative. Republican. Democrat. Newsflash! It does not MEAN A DAMN THING! As long as you are voting people who want power into office, giving money to corporations and doing what these greedy people want, they do not CARE what your opinions are. All they want to do is to tell you what YOU want to here so they can keep their money and squishy desk job. And they are willing to blow cock and change faces to do it. In short, this EXACTLY is one of the many reasons why it's useless to pander to these labels: The Daily Show With Jon Stewart M - Th 11p / 10c Nationwide Tax Protests thedailyshow.com Daily Show Full Episodes Economic Crisis Political Humor I'm an atheist and I have to say, god bless you John Stewart! Even better, I get to see him on the Daily Show LIVE on my birthday too! :D -- Jordan Current Mood: cynical

07:05 pm - Whats wrong with Children these days: Adults. Ok, so as soon as I get back, I see this this new post from Pixi about the new bullshit Facebook policies. This was one of the people who replied to her: "so much drama about facebook. they had a whole thing on the news awhile back with women bitching that their pics were getting deleted because they were pics of them nursing their babies. i sided with facebook. they didn't delete nursing photos, they deleted ones where there were bare breasts, and i don't have a problem with that. i don't care if you're nursing, i wouldn't want my 14 year old kid browsing through facebook and seeing your tits hanging out. just because you're nursing doesn't mean they're no longer boobs. put them away and save it for your personal emails. i personally don't like facebook, but. eh. their user agreement isn't really any diff from myspace or anyone else's. not that i spend a lot of time reading those things anyway, but." ... WHAT!?! My responce: "I think the kid has seen way more than bare breast at 14. I think if you are still shielding him at that age he is actually going to develop into more problems, potentially become a man child and start editing Encyclopedia Dramatica." So then...naturally...I get an ear full: *my* kid won't have. nothing pisses me off more than these little kids (13, 14, 15) being sexually active and worrying about pregnancy and whatnot. except maybe the 19 year olds with two or three kids already. they piss me off slightly more. just because by age fourteen he or she might have seen a playboy some other kid brought to school or whatever doesn't mean it's appropriate for their parents to let them do whatever they want and be exposed to all sorts of sexual things. a 14 year old is still a child. and should be more worried about riding their bike or seeing a movie, than with thinking about sex. and my child won't be editing encyclopedia dramatica, because unlike most of these parents, i actually intend to be involved enough in my child's life to know what they're doing on the internet. it's not about "shielding", it's about letting kids be kids. they should be thinking about school, an after school job, college, friends, concerts. not drugs, sex, or alcohol. Ok...um... I could go on about how at 14 is the half way point for sexual maturity that starts when you are 10-12 years old. That in children, especially males, their sex drive will turn on and they will hunt for sexual things whether you approve it or not. Which also means if they are informed about sex or not. Or how because of this whole "lets not expose them because they are kids" mentality kids are making ill decisions about sex, thus higher teen pregnancy and bigger breakouts of STDs. Or that how embarrassing would it be for that 18 year old guy who meets up with a woman who was properly exposed to sex at a young age, who then makes the guy cry because he looks like an inexperienced moron when it comes to the sack, scaring him for life. Instead, I can thank The Onion once again for speaking my overly sarcastic mind: Study: Children Exposed To Pornography May Expect Sex To Be Enjoyable -- Jordan Current Mood: lethargic

April 3rd, 2009

02:57 am - Because sometimes, I'm greedy... Ok now that my blood pressure has returned to normal (no that was not an April Fools Day prank) and I cannot sleep, I would like to post something I have been meaning to for awhile. Its April again and things get busy. I am so happy many things are going on in April from protests to parties and even major religious events. A few bad things in the world sadly, but overall nothing is boring. I have been working on a small adventure game I hope to have something to show for by May and am writing my Burlesqki play. But one big event remains... My birthday is on the 23rd and I will be 22. Yes, after that day the only next significant birthday in my life is when I get discounts and AARP at 55. So, because of that I am going to celebrate. There will be a local NJ celebration with my family and friends the day before. During my birthday, I will head into NYC with Alex and see some sights, and then we are going to the taping of that day's The Daily Show with John Stweart. After Alex and I will eat out somewhere while my Mom goes home, so far, it looks like the Dave and Busters will be our choice if anyone cannot come up with something better. Again this year, not because I demand people things but it's so I do not forget, here are some birthday items I wish I could get or will try to buy myself on my birthday. 1) Black Nintendo DSi http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-DSi-Matte-Black-DS/dp/B001T8W2LW/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1238745459&sr=8-1 2) The Dark Knight DVD http://www.amazon.com/Knight-Limited-exclusive-Packaging-Featurette/dp/B001NFTZPM/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1238745353&sr=1-5 3) Wall-E http://www.amazon.com/Wall-E-Three-Disc-Special-Digital-Copy/dp/B001EOQWEO/ref=pd_bxgy_d_img_a 4) Deadly Creatures http://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Creatures-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B00163ROMC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1238746074&sr=1-1 5) Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes http://www.amazon.com/Metal-Gear-Solid-Snakes-game-cube/dp/B0000A09EN/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1238745858&sr=1-1 6) Monster's Lab http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Lab-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B0013RATO6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1238746276&sr=8-1 7) Sold http://www.amazon.com/Sold-Patricia-McCormick/dp/0786851724/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238746193&sr=8-1 8) Kick Ass "Peace" T-Shirt http://www.emmasrevolution.com/shop/product/detail/1/ 9) Will Fix Computer for Brains T-Shirt http://www.jinx.com/scripts/details.asp?affid=-1&productID=697 10) Time For A Drink Wall Clock http://www.cafepress.com/illwillpress.157265308 And of course, since I do not expect anyone to get me anything, the best thing ever is gift cards. Either Barn's & Nobel or Nintendo/Wii Points. Expecially Nintendo/Wii Points. I want so many WiiWare games like Megaman 9, Lost Winds, Bomberman Blast, LIT, Bit Trip Beat, Onslaught and World of Good...yea I want so many WiiWare things. :) -- Jordan Current Mood: excited

02:27 am - A Story from My Head I have been thinking about one of my favorite franchises a lot lately and in order to restore my previous way of thinking, I have decided to write out this story as a form of memory therapy. I can also use this space to spruce up my writing skills. ( Silent Hill: Inferno Chapter One ) End of Part One... -- Jordan Current Mood: creative

06:32 pm - The Good, The Bad and the Ugly Good News: We are going to get Lady back and got a reduced charge in the process. Bad News: Madworld does not come out today. That is the shipping date, Gamestop will get it tomorrow morning. I want to punch a wall, especially if Alex gets it today. Ugly News: I got two angry messages from my (I guess ex-friend) Foxx who is one of the head Bastard Sons of Dial-Up and has been to some of the 2600 meetings. You see there is this meme going around Facebook where you have a mass picture and you tag a bunch of people and while I think it's kind of lame I wanted to do it anyhow. So I decide to do a creative one where everyone was a person from the School of Philosopher's painting and I matched people according to their personalities and their own personal philosophies. Most took it well. Unfortunately people became a too little talkative on the photo and...well just read these: ( Get a Sandwich. This is going to take awhile... ) Yea. Was not expecting that. Not to start and argument with the guy, he is a good guy but two questions: 1) I know that Foxx does not want social interaction but it seems he wants very little of it. I have met people like before on various social networks and they puzzle me. Why have a social site (or put anything on the internet for that matter) if you do not want to be noticed or talked too by everyone else on the interwebs? Seems kind of ass backwards for me, it would be like being an arachnophobic but me living in the jungles of South America. @,@; 2) NeoAmsterdam said this the best: "You asked to be notified. You were notified. Boo-fucking-hoo." So yea, what a day... ... LUNCH!!! -- Jordan Current Mood: overwhelmed

10:24 pm - Update on the Old Dog Ok remember Lady, my Pit Bull that was arrested basically for being an old person? Well, we got to see her today. Apparently she was taken to this Animal Control place out in Wyckoff area, the building was wedge far away back between two other buildings next to a do-it-yourself (that's illegal in NJ if I am correct) pump gas station for cops and some sort of mining facility. Oh and the two people that run the whole thing for FIVE TOWNS were on break so after the police notified them they showed up around 10 or 20 minutes later after we showed up. But, she is fine. Although she was in no better condition then we left her in. She looked like she was in prison. My Mom warned me that they put a "jacket" on her, which we thought humorously-warily was like a strait jacket. It was more a sock, or more accurately: A pair of sweat pants that had one leg cut off and then they cut holes in the bottom for a dog's legs to fit through. I'm just glad she is still alive and they have not killed her yet. Her dealings will be decided in court on Tuesday. Lady at the Animal Control Center from Sidepocket on Vimeo. She was so happy to see us and cried when we left even though I reassured her we will see her again after court. I know she must be thinking that like her past owners that we are putting her up for adoption or something. Tomorrow I will do a media-embed filled post about all the stuff I have been doing since Halloween last year. Oh and once again, wish me luck in court on the 10th. That way I can play Madworld without any problems! -- Jordan Current Mood: calm

11:58 am - Homophobia is NOT a Real Phobia Let me explain. I am an Arachnophobic. This means when I see spiders, I freak out. I just do not like them. The eight legs, the way they movie, the eyes, the hair, the fact that most bite and have a poison that can irritate your skin or even worse. I just hate everything about them. You know when I go all insecticidal..when they are in my room. Or my bathroom in the shower area. If anything is in my personal space when I do not want them to be there I will go crazy. However, I do not kill any that are in the rest of my house, I normally kick them out. And if they are outside my house, we can live in peace. Now, here is the tricky part! What you DON'T see me do is run around my entire neighborhood with shoes and raid trying to kill every spider I can find. You DON'T see me trying to pass laws which state that spiders are a threat to American society and that they should be exterminated or be booted off our land. And you certainly DO NOT see me poke around in some obscure religious text and try to find a passage that proves that Spiders are unhealthy for our society and have rallies with other religious people outside of arachnid showcases in zoos. That kind of acting is NOT a phobia...IT'S PSYCHOTIC! It's something you need to take pills for. And I find it quite offensive as someone with a phobia to be lumped in with those people. -- Jordan Current Mood: contemplative

03:07 pm - A Part of My Soul Just Died For Real Hi. I have been meaning to make an entry for awhile now. I wanted to tell you all about the coverage of the New York Times scam, my huge Comic Con article on GoNintendo and how awesome House of the Dead: Overkill is. However, I can't right now because the state just took my dog, a member of my family that I take care of every waking moment in my life, away from me. The people who came were total dicks. All I have been doing is slaving my way for my loves (they get more medically checked up than me, it has been near a decade since the last time I went to the doctor) and they were treating me like I hold dog fights in my back yard. My only claim to fame is I stood my ground and I got to crush another police officer's psyche. Pig: "Here is the court date info, I am going to take this one in and giving a warning to the other one. Technically, I COULD take all of them right now regardless of the condition they are in. Me: Thank you for the verbal threat Officer I really appreciate it. *pig's jaw drops and blanks out for a solid 20 second strait. The cop then grilled me out and fully gave me legal threats, which I am glad because I rather let them be honest that they are a state gang than anything else. I left that one to be on the only condition that "your men stop trying to arrest me walking on the streets thinking I am on the Al-Quida watch list." What worries me and what worries me since then, is that THE STATE CANNOT TAKE CARE OF THE DOGS! I know because we bought them 18 hours before they were going to be executed and that is back when they were healthy. Because they are under state watch, I hope they do not execute them... Wish me luck in court March 10th, which ironically the same day Madworld comes out. -- Jordan Current Mood: worried

03:47 am - You Have No Idea How Much Cock I Had To Suck To Get Here! I miss Whose Line Is It Anyway. (Title is from the show from Colin) Anyhow, yes. I have done many things. Yes, my summary of November 2008 until now is coming. It has to do with part of laziness but most part is that my data problems on my machine have become so bad that completing things have become sllllooowwww. Thankfully, I was given an E-Machine that once I upgrade the ram should theoretically be more powerful than this one. And it has 50 gigs of C Drive, take that current measly 14 gigs on this computer! Anyhow, I figure to start my first post of the new year that I should do something that I am reminded of every day: Thanking all of you deadbeats, hookers and psychopaths who keep reading my shit. Without support from viewers like you, none of this diarrhea floating down the tubes would ever make it past the lotto balls. sidepocket_pro's friendsCollage LJ friendsCollage Brought to you by pratibha75 and teemus --The Complete List Here-- If you see yourself here then congrats, you have officially wasted your life! I am right now applying to the IGDA GDC Scholarship which if I am accepted means I get to go to the Game Developers Conference with a mentor. If not, they may hire me to work there. I am poor so these are my options this year. That and I get to see my beloved Uncle Bob who is awesome and I have not seen in forever. More on that in a future post. Hang tight for overdue content, such as Christmas Presents and such! -- Jordan Current Mood: awake

09:09 am - Winter Solstice Begins! Ah the winter holidays, every culture has one. Weather it is a Jewish kid being born in a barn, beating the snot out of the Seleucid Empire or some made up holiday for black people, everyone gets together and celebrates that it is cold as fuck outside. I recently found a new holiday by the Humanists that while I do not entirely agree with their philosophy, find this holiday to be perfect for my tastes. It's called Human Light and while it obviously needs a better name, the only problem with it is that it so far to my knowledge does not have a song. Even Hanukkah has that awful Dreidel song. So I did what I normally do best, I took a good tune from a crappy popular song ('O Christmas Tree) and made my own unofficial Human Light song. *music test* Human Light Song 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! Today we humans thank and give, Without the need for that Jewish kid. 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! We thank Newton for Gravity, And Einstein's Theory of Relativity. 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! The Wright Brothers for Airline Flights, And MLK for Civil Rights. 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! In the future we forward look, Like Gay Marriage legally in the books. And Darfur's struggles they depend, On us since we said "never again". 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! Let's all sing joyously for world peace, Which we extend to the Middle East. 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! 'O Human Light, You Shine so Bright. Reflective of our inner light! 'O Human Light you remind all thee, That the world runs on Vox Populi! (So we kick back and grab a beer, Humanity survived another year!) -- Joke Line Hope everyone is not too snowed in and if you live in a place where it is warm....fuck you. -- Jordan P.S. Yes, I am still working on that recap post. Now that my classes are done I can upload my Halloween photos to Flickr! Current Mood: cold

01:10 am - When Chump Change Niggers Beat Redneck Zombies Sorry I do not have the Halloween entry yet, I have the pictures but I have to post this soon or I am going to puke. So Obama won over McCain. Ok. Yay, I guess? I was in NYC crashing the Election Watch at New School, handing out fliers and messing with the video equipment to open people's minds and take the power back: www.becausewewantit.org So as I after going to WBAI to leave a note since I cannot be in on Off The Hook tomorrow and a beer mix called a "Snakebite" later, I could hear the screams from fucking China. As I walked down, tons and tons of black people were all jumping brooms and jivin' as the white people reveled in their lameness. I felt like the Grinch on Christmas. However, here is the thing that makes me feel better always this time of season. When you are done praising your "savior", you will go home. He will pass a few bills, maybe repair some things. Maybe take some troops away, maybe? He will then mostly show up around the world posing for photos. The a biiiiig fuck up will happen. It always happens, even if the big fuck up is not doing anything outstanding and being totally forgettable policy wise. Then more bad thing will happen. Soon guess what is going to happen with your piece of paper? Nothing. Voting got us Hitler and Bush, Revolutions got us the very country we live on and rights for women and blacks. Nobody will chose Revolution anymore. And so people will continue to watch Opera as your life sucks every day. You will be fired from your job, get sick numerous times. You will get robbed, raped, murder or know who does. You will get fucked out of your money by taxes. Your mate will have an affair with someone and leave you. The poor will remain poor and the rich get richer. We will still fight for dumb things like oil and the bible while we leave people we could be helping like Darfur dieing and leaving others to similar fates by choosing to do our thing instead of the right thing. Osama will still be laughing at us and so will I. People will die. Babies will be born. Life will go on this planet like it has for billions of years. Then at the end of the day, you will end up at a bar. And in that bar at the end of the table, there will be a man with no fear. A man who sees the world and mother nature for what it is and nothing more. The man they call the terrorist, the Anti-American, the heathen, the atheist, the Jew lover, the Furry, the abortionist, the pro-pot junkie, the loser, the gamer, the lamer, the Pollock Nigger and may other names. That person...will be me. And you will for a split second, before the end of the four years are up and you go to your little Republican Red Socks VS Democrat Yankees Super Bowl FIFA World Championship Hyper-Fucking-Riffic Olympics and wave flags with symbols with no meaning for people who will continue on this cycle I mention about... And you will finally see, for once in your life, what I see. Then we will clack drinks together and I will say: "Welcome to the real world." Or, as the man once said it: -- Jordan Current Mood: indifferent

04:18 am - Public Service Annoucement :: Jim Is Missing My friend Jim, who suffered a stroke last year, left on a day pass Thursday afternoon from the Brooklyn nursing home at which he is being treated. Details are still sparse, but it appears that he became separated from his traveling companion on the subway, and has not been seen or heard from since that day. While Jim retains his mental faculties and can find his way around as well as anyone, he has great difficulty speaking and some difficulty walking. More importantly, he doesn’t have the daily medication and care he needs to prevent another stroke. We believe he had around $180 on him at the time. An avid poker player, Jim had mentioned a desire to go to Atlantic City, and it’s possible that he headed there on his own despite his need for daily medical care and monitoring. The NYPD has been alerted, but we need to make sure the word is spread and that people all over the region are keeping an eye out for him. 2600 have put together this flyer with a toll-free hotline for the reporting of any sightings or information. You can also email Off the Hook on his whereabouts. All help is greatly appreciated. ( Flier Info ) This is scaring the piss out of me because Jim was one the first person I met at my first 2600 meeting and was the only counterbalance with Villain. So I have a special place in my heart for him and worry deeply. UPDATE -- We JUST got word that Jim came back to the nursing home on his own. He's been rushed to a hospital for evaluation. Thanks to everyone for their help on this. We'll have updates soon I hope. -- Jordan Current Mood: worried

09:02 am - My Garden Does Grow, But Don't Call Me Marry Experiment this year. Previous farming experiment showed Rutherford soils was not suitable for farming, thus why it's land was used for housing. Further excavations revealed it had to do with poor top soil. Underneath top soil was rich leafy brown soil in which worms more than eight inches who were pure white via no sunlight were living. Goal was to create a 4x4 foot garden by replacing top soil. Chosen experimental crops were Tomatoes and Cucumbers. Marigolds were planted to repel bad insects and a garden hose sprayer was erected for easy watering. ( Results... ) Next years plan: Make new adjacent 4x4 foot square with new topsoil, plant previous crops in new square and plan potatoes and corn in old square. Get NJ Farmers License and sell to Farmers Market, join Urban Farming league. -- Jordan Current Mood: accomplished
