Bonus! New Trek pictures!

This pic is just badass.

This is a group of characters that set out on a five year mission that they ended up only getting about three years to complete, afterwards they still managed to stretch that shit out for 40 more years.

That’s talent.

Also, Zachary Quinto, Sylar from Heroes, is the exact mirror-image (you trekkies know what I’m talking about) of Spock.

Sylar Spock

Also, I’m officially trademarking the name “Sylar Spock”. Anyone who uses it owes me fucking money.

Ok, two posts in one day is all you get…otherwise you’ll go mad with power.

Scott Speed Just Might Be My New Favorite Driver.

October 16, 2008

In the span of a short Sunday afternoon, Scott Speed went from points leader to finishing fifth in the ARCA RE/MAX Series championship. He got wrecked by his closest pursuer [Ricky Stenhouse Jr] on lap 27 and returned the favor 7 laps later — an incident that classified his car’s damage as “terminal” after it hit the inside and outside walls. Still, Speed said he earned valuable “street cred.” “Straight out of ‘Days of Thunder,’ I just said, ‘Change my tires. Just put the tires on it and let me go out and try it,’” said Speed (a.k.a. Cole Trickle). “I went out for a lap and a half until the 99 (Ricky Stenhouse Jr., a.k.a. Russ Wheeler) was in our presence. And I did to him what he did to me. From my perspective, I was the championship leader and he disrespected me on the track so there was no way I was going to let him win a championship like that.” Speed finished 34th in ARCA’s season finale. His 2008 stat line reads like this: 4 wins, 3 poles, 10 top fives and 17 top 10’s in 21 races.

This is coming from a dude who raced Formula One last year.

Before the end of the 2007 F1 season, he leaves the monumentally under-performing Red Bull sponsored F1 team, and decides to come over to stock cars.

The guy had never even been in a stock car until he made his debut at Talladega, both qualifying and finishing in seventh place in late 2007.

In 2008 he ran the full ARCA schedule, during which he wins 4 races and damn near wins the ARCA Championship, all while also running 11 races in the NASCAR Truck Series, garnering one win, three top fives (one at fucking Bristol), and five top 10’s.

So his combined stats in both series for 2008 are 32 starts, 5 wins, 13 top fives, and 22 top ten finishes.

Those are serious fucking numbers people.

Scott Speed. Learn the name, you’ll be hearing it more in the future.

Why is Iron Man better than Batman?

October 3, 2008

While Batman was working on building his body to the peak of physical perfection, Iron Man was inventing a suit of armor that’d make him 100 times stronger AND is capable of being remote controlled so he can send the suit to take care of business while he’s in the bedroom taking care of business.

Exercise? Discipline? Fuck that. Tony’s gonna have a cheeseburger, drink a bottle of Crown Royal, and then have a nasty supermodel threeway.

Batman has a tricked out cave and a fancy car. Iron Man has a swinging bachelor pad and a suit which allows him to fly supersonically to any party anywhere in the world. It even chills drinks.

Batman hangs out with an old butler and a teenage boy in tights. Iron Man hangs out in a hot tub with Megan Fox, Lindsay Lohan, and Scarlett Johansson.

Batman throws bat shaped boomerangs at people. Iron Man shoots lasers at your punk ass.

Batman can punch you and break your ribs. Iron Man can punch you in fucking half.

If someone shoots at Batman, he ducks. If someone shoots at Iron Man, he laughs at them.

Batman tries desperately to keep his identity a secret. Iron Man told the whole world he was Iron Man just because he thought it’d be awesome.

Batman’s parents were killed, driving him to exact vengeance. Iron Man’s parents are dead too…but you don’t see him bitching and moaning about it all fucking day.

Batman is the head of multibillion dollar corporate empire. Iron Man is also the head of a multibillion dollar corporate empire. Ok, so that one’s a draw.

Batman adopts a gruff, throat rending voice to strike fear in the hearts of criminals. Iron Man just has a little electronic gizmo that changes his voice without sounding like he’s smoked 400 packs of cigarettes that day.

Batman has a utility belt with all sorts of little gadgets. Iron Man has a utility suit that is one gigantic gadget filled to the brim with countless other gadgets.

Batman cloaks himself in the colors of the night and avoids being seen. Iron Man is wearing a gleaming bright red and yellow suit that screams, “Hey! Can everyone see me ok?”

And the number one reason Iron Man is better then Batman?

Because Bruce Wayne only pretends to drink scotch and fuck strippers all night long…Tony Stark actually does that shit and still manages to save the world on a regular basis.

And that’s why Iron Man is better then Batman.
