I'm sure you're wondering why there's a photo of a banana and a package of Reese's Pieces candies here. Well, in all honesty, I'm still wondering that myself. You see, I bought those Reese's Pieces the other day and something on the back of the package was quickly brought to my attention... (more...)
I've stated many times in the past that one of my favorite things to do at Target is scope out what items they have on closeout. On my most recent visit, I found some Ice Breakers PACS on the food aisle closeout shelf, which obviously means they're fantastic. For those of you who never saw 'em when they were still easy to find in stores, PACS were breath-freshening candies in little pouches that dissolved when you put them on your tongue. They came in Orange and Cool Mint flavors, and while I checked for cool mint, all they had at this Target was orange. I'm guessing the cool mint flavor was the better of the two, because it looks like they had a really hard time getting rid of these orange ones. I dare say I'm the first person to ever purchase the orange flavored ones, take a look: (more...)
The picture says it all. July 4th is upon us so whether you're living in America or not, I hope you'll all share your plans for the weekend in this thread. As for me, I don't have a whole lot planned for today, just the usual hanging out with some friends. I was actually tempted to track down a copy of the old patriotic horror/comedy movie "Uncle Sam" to help get in a more festive mood, but then I remembered how horrible it was. This wasn't one of those so bad it's good films, it was just 90 minutes of pure ocular agony. But damnit, it had a lenticular cover when it came out, so I was naturally powerless against renting it at least once. Llllllllenticularrrrrrrrr...
On Saturday, however, I'm making a day trip out towards Big Bear Lake to visit a friend and explore the area. I don't know much about the place, so if any of you have suggestions about things to check out there, I'm all ears. It may be an area with a lot of natural beauty, but the first thing that caught my eye is that they have a place called Super Bear Arcade. If there's one place I'm visiting, it's an arcade with the words "Super" and "Bear" in the name. I honestly can't think of a more patriotic way to spend some time this holiday weekend and you can bet your ass I'll return to you with some more details and pics of the joint.
I hope all of you find similarly funtastic ways to distract yourself this weekend. And hey, when you're done sharing your weekend plans in this blog thread, check out some of our Fourth of July articles:

Check it out people! I promised you I'd be making some brand new official I-Mockery T-Shirts and they've finally arrived! I know I was supposed to have these up for sale earlier this month, but we had some problems with the printer that had to get straightened out first, so my apologies for the delay. The good news is, the shirts are finally here and you're gonna absolutely love 'em! Here are the ingredients for the shirt:
-1 Tablespoon of Shark.
-1 Teaspoon of I-Mockery logo on sleeve.
-1 Cup of Glow-In-The-Darkness.
-500 gallons of AWESOME!
This first run of the shirts is a limited edition and I'm going to see how well they do to determine if I want to print up more varieties of I-Mockery shirts in the future. I've never been big on selling merchandise because shipping out products takes away from the time I could spend writing new articles for the site, but this shirt just HAD to be made (if you don't understand why, I suggest you read one of my earlier blog posts). The point is, get your Awesome Glow-In-The-Dark I-Mockery Shark shirts while ya can, because these are gonna go like hotcakes... just don't pour maple syrup on 'em, because I'm NOT giving any refunds for such a grievous error no matter how good it may taste.

As I mentioned in a recent post, we went to Nags Head, North Carolina for an extended Memorial Day weekend vacation with a bunch o' friends from back East. This vacation was extra special for me because it was something I've wanted to do for a long time - have all of us pool our money together so we could rent a really nice place for a week. And man, did it ever beat the hell out of staying at a hotel. We ended up getting a huge 3-story house right near the beach, and when it was all said 'n done, it cost everybody less than a week-long hotel stay would have. Not a bad deal by any means. Well, I promised I would share some photos from that excursion sooner or later, so I've just put up a little collection of some photos that we took. Rather than bore you with historical tidbits about Kitty Hawk or reminiscing about how many crabs I used to catch on the docks of Manteo with nothing more than a piece of string and a chicken drumstick, let's drive right into the pics! (more...)
Why can't we feel like this every day of our lives?
