Barack Obama Look-alike
December 19, 2008 by stergeron · 2 Comments
As we get closer and closer to inauguration day, more and more Barack Obama look-alikes are coming out. I received a recent one from JayBeesy (thanks!).
As you can see this Barack Obama look-alike really bears a striking resemblance to our president-elect. I can’t really tell if this guy is Filipino or Indonesian, but if someone can read some of the signage behind him and tell us what language it’s in, we should have our answer.
If this Obama look-alike gained 10 pounds and got a better suit, he probably could make a living doing some Obama impersonating in Las Vegas.
There are also some great Barack Obama look-alikes on YouTube, check these out:

Top 5 Web Comics That You’re Not Reading But Should Be

Growing up I was a comics fanatic. I would anxiously tear open the comics section of our local newspaper to read all my favorites, and even those I didn’t really understand. Back then I didn’t understand how much effort and work went into getting a comic strip syndicated or how much blood and tears went into the strips and the endless fights with censors who always cut the comics down.
Now that I’m older I’ve come to realize what’s in the funny pages as a kid was only the tip of the iceberg. Of course back then there was no Internet and thus no web comics. But that’s different now and most people in the newspaper comics industry don’t pull out their comics when they retire. They let them keep running and most newspapers are fine with it. This makes it harder for new artists to get their comics syndicated and that’s where the Internet comes into play.
In the last 10 years, the web comics field has exploded. This is mainly because the most active group on the Internet today were the most active readers of comics of yesterday. And so I present to you my top 5 web comics that you’re not reading but should be. These comics are uncensored and completely original and because of that very hilarious.

The Nerds that Changed The World
September 30, 2008 by markcondon · 6 Comments
When I was growing up my parents always reassured me that once I got out into the real world, the social status I had acquired in high school would soon dissolve into the night. We would all just be people. No longer would there be jocks, nerds and preps. Of course that’s not true at all, and as I grew older I became more comfortable with my nerdy habits, and have ultimately come to accept who I am. This list is a compilation of other people who have come to terms with who they are. Nerds are one of the most influential group of people in the world… I just wish someone would have told the girls I liked in high school that.

Regrets that are Okay to Have

“In order to survive, gotta learn to live with regrets” – Jay-Z
While most of us including myself have a no regrets mantra, sometimes we need to swallow our pride to admit that there are a few we might possess. True if a few things worked out differently, it might have tipped the delicate balance of your life. Had the domino fell another way, then who knows what position you would currently be in. You could be in a better or worse situation, but you’ll never really know. You shouldn’t always look back and lament these, so it’s best to chalk up the L and keep it moving and attribute it to experience.

This Star Wars Spoof is Hilarious, But Also Has A Message
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…Okay before you break out your light saber and use the force on me, check out this really awesome spoof on Star Wars. It was created by the Organic Trade Association (OTA) and Free Range Studios a while back, but if you haven’t seen it, it’s definitely worth a look.
The five-minute movie features Cuke Skywalker, Princess Lettuce, Chewbroccoli and other organic rebels—played by real vegetables dressed as Star Wars characters—battling it out with Darth Tader, the evil lord of the Dark Side of the Farm. [via StoreWars.org]
Okay, now you can break out the light saber, just make sure it’s the green colored one.
