Apparently the most recent winner of X-Factor (Britain’s American Idol) is notorious for taking the #1 Christmas song spot on the charts. But this year, thanks to massive online campaigns on Twitter and Facebook created by Jon Morter, Rage Against the Machine’s 17-year old classic, ‘Killing In The Name’ took the honor. God that song makes me want to swing my hips! In recent years, it had become as predictable as elections in North Korea - singer wins X Factor, singer’s debut single goes to No 1. So when Joe McElderry won the TV talent contest, he was no doubt confident he would celebrate Christmas at the top of the charts. Killing In The Name, an expletive-heavy rock song first released in 1992 by the Californian rock band Rage Against the Machine, won the battle for Christmas top spot on the basis of downloads only. It sold about 500,000 copies last week, about 50,000 more than The Climb, McElderry’s earnest ballad. Have I ever told you I love Rage Against the Machine? I do. And not just because the name reminds me of braining my first robot with a lead pipe. No, the music meshes perfectly with my angst-filled personality. Ha, what do you mean I should probably go see a doctor about that? F*** YOU I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!! Hit the jump for the official video of ‘Killing In The Name’, in case my awesome reference made no sense (you outta be ashamed!).
This is a scene from some German television program that gets raided by a bunch of dinosaurs . And let me tell you: when that raptor first came running out I thought it was CG . But it wasn’t. And neither were my 30 boners! My God, I’ve never wanted to be part of a live studio audience so bad in my life. Youtube Thanks to Martyn, Chuck and LewisRedd, who would have run on stage like it was The Price Is Right.
This is another little gallery of video games in realer life than they are when you play them. As you can see, this is a game I’m not familiar with. It looks like Tetris mixed with Rampage. I would call it Shape Rampagers, but that’s just because I’M A WORLD CLASS GAME NAMER. Super Mario Bros. ? Pfft, try Two Plumbers Fight To Bang The Princess . Yeah — I’m that L337. Hit the jump for a few of my favorites, and the link to a bunch more if you’re interested in that sort of thing (I won’t judge).

Even if you were just born this morning you’ve probably heard of FMyLife. The concept is simple: you make up some cheeselog story about how much your life sucks and then you post it on the internet ( which is magic ) so people can feel better about how much their lives suck. It’s really a victorious feeling. So yeah, these are some FMyLife’s written by famous video game characters . Now, I encourage you all to write your own video game inspired FML’s in the comments. I’ll get you started: I think I’m in love. Unfortunately, every attempt I make at sweeping my love interest off her little feet is thwarted by a Big Daddy. FML I agree, your life sucks (0) - you totally deserve it (24933024 jillion) On 08/05/1960 at 8:24am - love - by Jack - Rapture, Atlantic Ocean Hit the link for a couple more.

This is a painting of Charlie Brown by artist Tim O’Brien. Scary, no? I’m sorry if you’re not gonna be able to sleep tonight, but I live by the mantra “if I had to see, so do you”. Sweet dreams! Also, for the hundreds of people who keep sending the “dead body eating robot” tip, I posted it earlier this week . I get depressed as hell when I get the same tip I posted a few days ago. *sniff* Don’t you read regularly? YOU SAID YOU LOVED ME! Tim O’Brien’s Painting of Charlie Brown [agentmlovestacos] Thanks to FDSY, who you can blame for not being able to sleep at night. And not just because he’s hiding under your bed, but he is.

This is a super creepy looking Mario Bros. t-shirt that costs $20. You know, I’m really torn because I’m not particularly into this style of art , but I do love dinosaurs. Rock *me* hard place. And I do mean hard. Who knew Yoshi could be so sexy? A : Me. September 1991, Super Mario World . First boner, age 10. Hyper-real Mario, Luigi on Nightmarish Shirt [militantgeek] Thanks to Jizzle, who tried to convince me he’s ridden a dinosaur before but I could tell he was just trying to make jealous.
So the creaters of Warhammer went and made a real-life Space Marine Rhino replica to folks excited about the upcoming video game. And, also, to crush the hell out of some little cars. Per my tipster, Sam: Thought you might be interested in knowing about this, as it was modified from a old WWII British tank to promote the upcoming Warhammer 40000: Dawn of War 2 game that is about a week away from being released. Nothing really amazing if it was just a normal tank (crushing cars is still cool, but still would be nothing new) but since it was heavily modified into a working replica (mostly) of the Warhammer 40000 Space Marine Rhino transport, it’s been an ecstasy trip for 40kiers like me and anyone else seeing one their favorite tabletop franchise coming to life. Freaking sweet — I want one. And not just because some jerk broke my passenger side mirror off without leaving a note. No, it’s because I want to crush the car that did it — driver too! With a tank . A Warhammer tank. VROOM VROOM!! This ain’t no table-top game, bitch, this is real life! Youtube Thanks to Sam, who Wars the Hammer like nobody’s biz.
