Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas, peoples!

Don't celebrate Christmas? Screw you, it's just about secular nowadays!

In any case, you guys get any good swag this year? Tell us what you got in the comments.

Also, Denny's was closed. I mean, what the hell...

Obvious troll is obvious.


Is it weird Evan?

Your birthday is your number!

That's how I 'member!


Why I decided to do a haiku there I have no idea.


So I found this horribly made site and decided it'd be a good idea to bash the creator through his blog. Too bad the dang comment functionality doesn't work!

It's on! (And resolutions and so forth)


Alright, so Evan has his goals, for him and us. Sounds good.

But I think Tom and I should come up with our own resolutions as well. Here's what I've got so far:

1) I promise to publicly remember Evan's Birthday. (I'm also tempted to add older posts to make it look like I did)

2) I'll try to post at least one classic YNTE a month. Hell, maybe every Friday, I dunno. At least one a month though.

...yep, that's what I've got so far. I'll try to think of something involving getting admin privileges back or something.


Oh, by the way, what about Stevo?

Mission Accomplished / The Gauntlet

This blog is more often than not, pretty stupid. But for some wierd reason I love it. The times it almost died made me sad.

That's why, January 1st 2009, I swore that this year would not be the year the blog kicked the bucket for good. I resolved that every month would have at least 4 blog posts, even if I had to supply all 4 of them myself. And guess what? We did it. (mainly me).

But now 2010 is quickly approaching, and I don't want 2010 to be the year YNTE dies either! In fact, if possible, I would like 2010 to be EVEN RADDER than 2009. So here is the plan:

1) I personally resolve that every month of 2010 I will personally provide 5 content posts. Last year I only cared that there were 4 by the end, this year my resolution rests firmly on my own shoulders.

2) I challenge Matt and Tom to also post 5 content posts every month. And to up the ante, should they succeed in this task I will pay each of them fifty american dollars.

The gauntlet has been thrown down, Matt and Tom. Will you rise to the challenge?

And to the rest of you, loyal YNTE readers, thanks a bunch for a great 2009.

-Evan

Which is worse?


Alright, so me, my brother, and my friend Kyle just sat through both of these movies, and I need an opinion--which is worse, "The Man Who Saved the World" (a.k.a. Turkish Star Wars) or the Star Wars Holiday Special? The horribly pirated and not even remotely close to Star Wars film created by Turkey, or the Holiday Special about "Life Day" that has nothing to do with anything and has too many Wookies created by CVS? Here's a quick rundown:

Turkish Star Wars
Drawbacks
---Pirated Scenes from Star Wars that change nauseatingly fast
---Pirated music, mostly Indiana Jones
---Terrible acting and props and special effects
---A plot that makes no sense
---Terrible Dialogue
---Overly long poorly choreographed fight scenes with too much jumping
Redeeming Qualities
---The fighting is ridiculous and makes everyone laugh/wtf at the same time
---Kicking rocks makes them explode
---That guy just karate chopped both of this guys arms off and stabbed it with them
---That guy just punched through a bunch of dudes
---That guy just kicked through a bunch of dudes
---That guy just ripped some other guys' heads off
---That guy just kicked a dude in half

Star Wars Holiday Special
Drawbacks
---The movie revolves around Chewbacca's Family (abbreviated as Malla, Itchy, and Lumpy)
---The Wookies can't even make proper Wookie sounds except Chewie, and the other characters can't even say Kashyyyk correctly.
---Musical performances at random times by people who we don't remember or care about
---Random nonsensical characters that just pop in at random times
---Mark Hamill is wearing too much makeup
---Everyone acts as if ret... erm, chuckleheaded
---Terrible dialogue (or no dialogue with just the wookies) and poor script
---There is a scene with paper. STAR WARS UNIVERSE DOESN'T HAVE PAPER
Redeeming Qualities
---Pretty ok music
---The old cartoon with Boba Fett was alright.
---That one imperial guard that says "I hate fish."
---You cannot get any of the actors in that movie to acknowledge its existance
---The commercials that played during the special are retro and ridiculous
---The commercials were a nice reprieve from the movie
---A good reason to become intoxicated.

So which is worse?

You decide.

Oh, also happy birthday to Matt, I guess.


He never publicly remembers my birthday here!

Anyway, happy birthday, dude. You're old.

I cause the trends!

Kris Straub over at Chainsawsuit did a joke on Thursday about Iron Man being an alcoholic.

Sound familiar? Maybe because I did one on Monday.

I'm not at all accusing Kris of stealing the idea from me. I would be incredibly surprised if he even read my comic. Not to mention his joke is probably better. Just pointing out a funny coincidence.

Coincidences are funny. Just like superhero alcoholism!

The new hawtness

I am now the proud owner of one not-Crapolier. For anyone who intended to buy me a car for Christmas, you are too late. I'll take the cash equivalent instead, though.

If you break the window on this car, my pack of Mexican hunting weasels WILL find you and force you to listen to the Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas special on repeat for all eternity. You have been warned.

And to anyone who was wondering, yes, I transferred the 2 litre of Squirt to this car before trading in the old one.
