Happy Regretsgiving!

Happy Regretsgiving, everyone! It’s the magical day after Thanksgiving where we all realize how much we ate and how irritating our families are. And then we remember that, thanks to the long-weekend, you’re stuck with them for three more days. Weeee! So what are you regretful for this year?

On a lighter note, here’s something you can actually be thankful for: Shout! Factory has acquired the rights to all five MST3K episodes featuring Gamera, and will be releasing them as a boxed set. Aaaaaaand I just peed myself a little. Sha la la! (MST3KInfo)

In super shocking science news, a link has been discovered between people who like Batman and people who like porn. Yeah, it’s called “Awesome people liking awesome things and being awesome,” a-doy! (A.V. Club)

The other night, Jay Leno decided to ask permission from FourFour’s Rich Juzwiak if he could use a supercut he created. In true Leno fashion, he claimed it as his own and gave no credit. Kinda starting to look like a pattern, isn’t it? (popbytes)

So at first, they announced a movie based on Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, and I was all like “They already did that; it’s called Serenity” (that joke was a thinker). But now they’re adding Mark Wahlberg, Robert DeNiro and Joe Pesci to the cast, because clearly I’m the only person who thinks this movie is a terrible idea. (Film Drunk)

Game time! See if you can watch this 10 minute video of Kanye West at a concert ranting about how Taylor Swift never had his back and how Matt Lauer is as bad as a child abuser, and try and take him completely seriously. You can’t even make fun of him in your head. Make it through the whole thing and you get a cookie. (BWE)

Next time you’re flying, make sure that you’re not sitting next to Johnny Rotten, because he will fart you out of your plane seat. Yup, it’s official, this is the dumbest/grossest thing I’ve ever linked to. (Agent Bedhead)

Because it’s never Thanksgiving without a bunch of giant-ass balloons, here’s a gallery of all the floats from the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. (Buzzfeed)

Jennifer Grey ended up winning Dancing With The Stars instead of the girl who makes a living off of being a hypocrite, thus giving me something I have to handle with kid gloves so that we don’t end up with another flame war. (Warming Glow)

Here’s a list of things you should never, ever, ever wear to the airport. Sorry figgy, but those Alexander McQueen shoes he made for Gaga that you love so much? Those will fucking kill you if you wear them on an aircraft. Just sayin’. (The Gloss)

I have nothing to add to this except CAKE PRINTER! THE PRINTER THAT PRINTS CAKES! Seriously, isn’t that enough for you people? (Gamma Squad)

To make you all feel better about yourselves, here’s the Turbaconepic, a bird in a bird in a bird in a pig wrapped in bacon. It’s pretty much the Inception of Thanksgiving feasts. Look upon it and be thankful you weren’t the one eating this.

I hope when they do the Superman and Spider-Man porn parodies, they stick with the theme in Batman XXX where they make veritable period pieces. Do the Christopher Reeve Superman and do the 80s Spider-Man TV movie/series. The style of filmmaking in the 60s-80s works so much better for porn than modern techniques. That's part of what makes the Batman one so much fun. Also, because it's not that hard to believe the Adam West/Burt Ward versions of Batman/Robin would actually solve their dilemma with Catwoman by having a menage-a-trois. Batman: The Movie almost, just barely, ends the same way!

On another note: Am I the only Pajiban stuck at work today?

Oh, and I'll be getting the Gamera-ized MST3K boxed set, it's just too bad they're all Joel episodes. Don't get me wrong, I like Joel, but sometimes he's just a little too low-key. Mike always brought the energy.

Yeah, yeah, I'm a nerd. Suck it!

I regret thinking whiskey and Ambien made a good combination. I'll never get that money back.

Gobble gobble gah!

You know I've got a Guiron doll that sits on top of my monitor, right?

I regret that I am at my in-laws' house and can't
add an Oscar Wilde action figure to my Amazon wish list. I don't regret it as much as the fact that I have a cold and as much as I want to play with Pajiba today, I don't have the focus. CLEARLY, I need more pie.

Finally...finally we can eat Gamera.

Jeremy you aren't the only one who thinks the Uncharted movie is a terrible idea. I'm saving most of my rage for the Mass Effect movie if it ever comes to be though.

Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!

The Cricut Cake DOES NOT print cakes. It cuts out designs in very thin materials. In the baking industry, this is mostly used for cutting designs out of fondant. This is old news, by the way- my wife's had her Cricut cake for 6 months at least. What's sad is that about 2 years ago some smart lady discovered you can use the original Cricut machines to cut fondant, and quickly introduced the idea around the cake baking community. Cricut found out about it, and they redesigned the Cricut specifically for fondant. Can you believe the nice folks at Cricut didn't give the lady a dime for providing them an entire new market to sell to?

I regret lending my first four trade paperbacks of The Walking Dead to a co-worker who swore he'd "have them back before the first show aired." Asshole quit like two weeks later and they won't release his personal infomation to me because they know I plan on shoving a red-hot spoon in his ass before using it to gouge out his right eye.

I regret telling my manager what my plans are for my former co-worker.

I regret marrying a woman who hates sushi. I never get to eat sushi anymore. She's alwasy like, "Wah wah wah, let's compromise and pick somewhere we both like." And I'm like, "Damn your reasonable logic!" And I'm not allowed to beat her because the police say it's "illegal." Whatever that means.

I regret calling the police to ask them if they can send someone over to beat my wife for me.

I regret everything I didn't do between the years 1997 and 2002. Back then I was burdened with dignity, self-respect, humility and empathy for my common man, and didn't have nearly enough promiscuous sex or get into nearly enough fights. I spent those years being the voice of reason, working hard and saving money. Fucking waste of time.

Whatever. Fuck you people. You've changed.

Gamera is really sweet. He is filled with turtle meat. We all love you, GAM-ER-AAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Mark Whalburg as the lead? Nathan Fillon did the voicing in the game. so why not have him come back, since we all love Mal.

Well I didn't eat too much yesterday. I thought about eating a second Marie Callendar's turkey dinner, but decided against it.

Am I the only Pajiban stuck at work today?

No, of course not. I have to put in for vacation to get fucking CHRISTMAS off.

pie pie pie pie pie

that is all.

@Todd: It just seemed eerily quiet 'round these parts, s'all. I generally have to put in vacation requests for the holidays at the beginning of the year, but all of my co-workers beat me to it this time. They didn't wait for the company calendar to be released, and my manager approved them, anyway. Speaking of red-hot spoons in eyeballs...

@mswas: Pie may be my only regret. I've already consumed the entire pumpkin pie/cheesecake combo my mother made for me. I don't eat sweets often (I'm allergic to processed sugar, and I tend to prefer savory to sweet, anyway), but every year mom makes a pie just for me and her. She took a quarter, I took the rest. And now it's all gone. Whoops! Maybe I should start building up a tolerance to desserts prior to the holiday...

Ladies and gentlemen.....Randy Watson and Sexual Chocolate!

I regret not being able to get in early on the commenting. I regret that I never seen someone die by TurBaconEpic.

What I don't regret? GETTING A JOB!!!!! WITH MONEY!!!! THAT THEY ACTUALLY GIVE TO ME!!! IN MY HANDS!!!


.....I said Sexual Chocolate!

LordNinja - Nolan North did the lead voice in Uncharted (along with every voice in every video game ever made). But Nathan Fillion should be in the movie because he's dreamy and he's from Edmonton.

I have nothing to add to this except CAKE PRINTER! THE PRINTER THAT PRINTS CAKES! Seriously, isn’t that enough for you people

Everyone knows that the printer is the least reliable computer peripheral EVER. There's is NO WAY I'm letting a goddamn printer have anything to do with cake.

"Marzipan Load Letter"? WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?!

The delightful and dignified department secretary I worked in Why The Hell Is This Company In This Nowhere's Ville was reminiscing about feasts and holidays. Told of turduckin, she brought in the recipe for Camel, stuffed with Goats, stuffed with Chickens (1, 4-5, and 12-15, as I recall. Plus chickpeas, mint & other stuffings.)

You roast it for about a day, by the gas flare of a mid-East oil well. No bacon, of course.

Hearing tales of her youthful adventures made my life feel ... small.

Gamera is really neat!
Gamera is made of meat!
