Bored Stupid

Posted on Friday April 25, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

Man… if I had one of those “I’m feeling…” buttons on my site, it would probably say “cheap & used” right now.

How are you supposed to feel when you make amends with someone, you write nice stuff about them, they write nice stuff about you (well, more like USE YOU as a cheap tool to keep people FROM dropping out their project like flies in a mass exodus…) have these hundreds of people come here overnight to read my post…

….and then they read the next one, which looks like a “pig party”, and makes them look like a REAL asshole?

Eric Brooks, as played by Judd Nelson Would YOU remove all that nice stuff that you wrote about ME, and declare it a “useless rant”?????

*sigh* THE TRUTH: It’s not for everyone, y’know.

Yes… ignore me now. I’ll go away.
*SNORT* Oh Yeah, like *THAT’S* ever worked before!

So, how about them Yankees?

You’re not expecting me to talk about the shit hitting the fan tonight, are you?
Hey, I just made my peace. And I gave my word I was staying out of it.

On second thought… FUCK IT! I’m hearing a lot of lies and PR damage-control at Blogshares, and I’m sick of it.
Here is a copy of the page where my friends and I are CRUCIFIED at Blogshares. (I suspected my comment was going to be deleted, so I saved the page.) Maria was run off the web, because of me. She defended a friend, and he sicced trolls on all of us.

Sayed has no control over over the trolls??? BULLSHIT!
He has my name in big-ass letters, my URL on it and singles out every one commenting on my site as “nazis” and “doting supporters”. One of them was Maria, who didn’t agree with my remark, but said my frustration with the game “echoed her sentiment too”.

The very first response was one of his asshole friends suggesting “Perhaps blogs that link to him should suffer horrendous losses too.”

HEL-LOOOOO???????

Web Skirmishes 101

Posted on Thursday April 24, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

Yoo hoo… can we talk?

On a serious tip. No more wisecracks on the subject. I have to realize that I play to a more global crowd. Not everyone thinks I’m funny. In the world’s defense, a lot of Americans think I’m a mean-sprited asshole too.

What started this was a remark I passed in my comments. It was a “racial/ethnic” slur directed at Mr. Razavi. No semantics, no excuses… WHAT I SAID WAS WRONG. Simple as that.

I am very sorry for hurting you, Sayed. And I mean it. I am very sorry for anyone who was offended by the remark, too. It was crude and insensitive.

What followed after that was a chain reaction of disasters on both sides. Events that we have *BOTH* admitted publicly we could have handled better. Exacerbated by caring friends on both sides who wanted to defend us.

We both lost our cool. While we can’t erase the past… we can only move forward INTO the future.

As I planned to resurrect this site over the summer, I VOWED that this kind of stuff was not going to happen anymore.
I wanted to come back and be a POSITIVE force in the community. At a time where people are being polarized and torn apart over a war that affected the entire planet… I wanted to help bring the web community back together, torn apart FROM all the debate and harsh words, and I wanted to work with the same people with the same mindset.

HelpKat.Com

Posted on Wednesday April 23, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

Now someone actually *WORTH* talking about is Kat FROM My Single Mom Life. (found via Maria)

“This is not your typical cyber beggar site as I actually need real help. I’m not asking anyone to pay off my debt or buy me new boobs or a diamond engagement ring. I am asking for help while I get the necessary treatments and possible surgery for my back.”

A good friend has set up a site for her called HelpKat.Com.

She suffers FROM scoliosis. All she’s simply asking for is help FROM the community to keep her utilities and other bills afloat as she undergoes surgery on her spine (she’s in a lot of pain). She works as a waitress. She’s on her feet all day. She’s always carrying stuff. She’s always bending. This will be impossible for a while after the surgery.

She’s asking for our help. She’s a sweetheart and deserves our help. I’ve also known Kat long enough to know she’s a very proud single mom who’d rather continue to suffer than take a handout FROM strangers. So obviously her situation has gotten *very serious* for this site to have been made.

Money’s tight for a lot of people. I know that. But $5 here and there FROM a LOT of people can really add up, and make a big difference fast. Can you at least spread the word?

Birthdays

Posted on Sunday April 20, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

Figures…
Birthday Alarm is down.

Besides celebrating Easter, we have two birthday girls today!!!!

Faith of Oxymoronic
Donna of Confessions of An Anti-social Bitch

You can always count on me, folks!
Send them an E-Card (no birthdays yet… but I do have a “Happy Birthday” MIDI, and I bet they’ll love the tacky & tasteless assortment in the Humor section.)

And in the spirit of showing that I am indeed a kind, and sensitive soul, I wont reveal the ages of these two old bats either.

The Super Dudes

Posted on Sunday April 20, 2003Thursday May 12, 2011 by Eric Brooks

The First Episode of The Super Dudes – “Incredible, Ain’t it?”
NOW PLAYING ON NEWGROUNDS.COM

Let’s face it. If you’re willing to run around town in tights, have incredible powers that you use only for good deeds, with no insurance or financial compensation, rather than knock off a bank or go on a killing spree:

1) You really need to get laid.
b) You’re out of your mind.

Let’s take the mythos of our beloved superheroes a step further and make them more real. The good and the bad. Here’s what I’ve come up with:

Patriots Day

Posted on Saturday April 19, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

Gonna be back-to-back-to-back posts today, so much stuff is going on (and yes… the pilot episode of Super Dudes is done and online. Link to follow.)

God Bless the troops Daphne reminds us today is Patriots Day.

You know, anyone can cheer on the winning team, root for the home team in an “easy war”. When the going gets tough? When things go really wrong? That’s when you see what people are made of. Our troops need our support more than ever.

Whether Saddam and Oday Hussein are hiding on a farm dressed as peasants somewhere, or they’re primordial ooze underneath a pile of rubble… either way, they’ll never be a threat to anyone again. No one will shed a tear for them, least of all me.

Where are all the holy men? You know the ones who scream “Death to America” everytime their coffee is too cold, or their eggs are too runny? Why aren’t they putting out a plea to the Iraqi looters and say “Hey, stop stealing other people’s shit, and destroying 7,000 years of history and artifacts!” ?

Just something new to blame America for.
It’s always America’s fault over there, isn’t it.
When the U.N. sends peace-keeping troops to some hotspot on the planet, they only see it as “The Americans interfering again.”

So now, on top of dealing with mercs, suicide bombers, and snipers, they’re expected to stop people FROM stealing their own shit? Give me a fucking break. Sorry we’re more concerned with combat and finding our people who are being tortured somewhere. Amid the gunfire and chaos, these ingrates are whining “this is democracy???”. What, they don’t have the balls to stop the looters themselves?

Your Easter Egg, or your life!

Posted on Friday April 18, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

Sorry dudes. Fell asleep the minute I got home, and never finished the Super Dudes. Had an Easter Egg Hunt at work today (no, really.) Found a couple of eggs with tootsie rolls, destroyed the newsroom, and even found an egg with a raffle ticket where I won $1. (Cash is ALWAYS an acceptable gift.)

This of course wiped me out. It takes a lot of energy to ransack your boss’ office. Goofing off in his IM, talking to his contacts, pretending to be him… all in the name of finding that one Easter Egg where you get the day off with pay.

Somebody else got it.
Bastard.

I’m flooded with memories of 1981 where we were caught in a riot in Central Park in NYC (anyone remember that?) We’re there on the Great Lawn for the Easter egg hunt. The imbeciles in charge were running late, so they decided (in their infinite wisdom) to start tossing Easter eggs out INTO the crowd, right off the truck.

Of COURSE we’re gonna beat the piss out of the smaller and weaker for their Easter Eggs! We’re New Yorkers, what do you expect?

My cousins and I are pounding on smaller kids, while getting punched in the face by their parents. I had to literally pull my mom, by her feet, out of a 30-person pileup…

Only to get home, and watch Channel 11 news portray us as a pack of animals in their footage! The nerve!!!! It was survival of the fittest that day.

In the news…

Posted on Wednesday April 16, 2003Saturday June 4, 2011 by Eric Brooks

TOP STORY – ACTOR FOUND DEAD
NEW YORK (AP) – Famed flash actor Mr. Winky, was found dead in his apartment today. Police are ruling it “suspicious”, and no two-legged suspects have been named. While his fall appeared like a suicide, an unnamed doorman was quoted as saying: “Man… Humpty Dumpty was pushed.”

IN OTHER NEWS…

Sayed’s goon squad has now decided to give me a break and has now moved on to harrassing Maria… Who has run Traceroutes on their IP addresses, tracked them down, and kicked all their asses… YOU GO GIRL!!!!
(How much more of this guy’s shit do we have to put up with, anyway?)

Sources in Norfolk, VA say that Michele will be on CNN Monday.

Cheyenne has started a meme today called “Wednesday Wishes”. Leave your “I wish…” either in her comments, or somewhere where she can find it… sounds FUN! And we need some fun around here.

The Super Dudes No promises, but I’m trying to get The Super-Dudes out the door sometime tomorrow night.

Why? Cuz the web’s so boring without me….
(Gawd I can’t get that Eminem song out of my head…)
