Passive-aggressive attention whoring, now in the temperate desert of the Okanagan where moisturizer is much more important
So OK GO put out a second video for their single “This Too Shall Pass”, this time of a Rube Goldberg machine running for the duration of the song, synced with the music, and filmed in one take:
(I blogged about their first video to the song two weeks ago).
Between this sort of stuff and Mythbusters [...]
But then OK Go releases a new album and another fun choreographed video, this time with marching band:

If you can recall, these guys got internet famous in 2006 with music videos of them dancing in a backyard, and again on treadmills. Their new album, [...]
I pulled an all-nighter last night, for work. It’s pretty rare for me these days, since as I get older, the more it really fucking sucks to recover from it. I think it’s been years since I stopped working when it got light outside.

My friend Thompson is in the band Splitting Adam, maybe best known for their song in the EA game “Need for Speed – Undercover”. They’re about to release their first full-length album, and here’s a look at its intense CD packaging:

I just realized it’s been well over a week since I saw any of my friends and I’m jonesing for my own personality to come out (unlike the quiet, shy, polite me that New Job is currently seeing). I miss my friends. I like you so much more now that you’re not available.
Here’s a video [...]
One thing I look forward to every summer is a new season of So You Think You Can Dance. It’s been TV crack for me ever since I happened to catch an episode in its second season, and I was happy to see that they started making a Canadian version last year. I think what [...]
