Gome of the Week
I guess maybe I just hate the fact that "Battlebots" is on Comedy Central and I watch that channel all the time and I hate when I have to get off the couch and do stuff and this show forces me to turn the TV off. Then I have to do stuff which sucks.
Maybe I'll just build a big badass Battlebot!
This Week's Link That's Probably Not That Great
Alec Eiffel - A Pixies site that has a really ridiculous amount of info about one of the greatest bands of all time. Lots of super old pictures and a comprehensive history of the band. It's a French site but there's an English option.
This Week's Movie You've Probably Never Seen
Shock 'Em Dead (1991)
Living proof that one can make the smooth transition from underage hardcore pornography to legitimate cinema. That's right, it's Shock 'Em Dead with the one and only Traci Lords.
This is a movie about some rock star who really wants to bang Traci so he signs a deal with the devil or some crap like that.
I'd like to say that I actually sat through this straight to video shocker, but I didn't .
"For the girl of his dreams, he'd make a deal with the devil."
Dude, I've totally been there.
This Week's Record You're Probably Not Listening To
Run-DMC - "Run's House"/"Beats to the Rhyme" (1988)
I found this in with a bunch of my old records and damn is it still good as heck, even almost 15 years later. Run-DMC's follow up to Raising Hell was so underrated at the time and still is. The last thing that straight kicked ass before they started to slip.
"Beats to the Rhyme" is what I want my shit to sound like. Exactly.
This Week's Hip New Slang Word or Phrase
Hillfiddigage - Clothes, jewelry, anything worn by "Tommy Hill Ice Rockers."
Origi - Raekwon, Cuban Linx era.
Usage - "Dude, that guy is flashing major ice."
"Dude, I think I might jump that guy and gank him for his Hillfiddigage."
"Dude, whoah."
