100 Most Influencial – Hits and Misses


I like to comment on lists like this… now with saying that, I strongly suggest that anyone who takes my words to heart and as the truth is a idiot because in all reality what the hell do I really know (besides creating t-shirts). But screw that… I am awesome, so read on!

Here’s the list for Starters —>LINK<--- - I could type the whole this out but I really don't feel I need to spoon feed you.

Leaders Category

Sorry I really can’t comment on this category cause 1) I understand Politics but I hate people who get in heated arguments over them 2) I couldn’t be a world leader (too much pressure)… so point to them. Onward to the next category.

Heroes

By far the biggest miss is Ben Stiller. I like Ben Stiller’s movies, he’s a funny guy in most his stuff, but a hero? No. I could maybe see if you were saying entertainment, but no kid wakes up and says… “I want to be the next Ben Stiller!” Total Fail 1 out 10 possible points.

Stiller?

I do like that they threw in the Urban Farmer guy, Will Allen. The whole idea of urban farming is pretty unique and provides affordable healthy living in places where that is not always easy to find. Pretty cool to see what they do.

Artists

There are some really good names on this list. I can’t relate but I understand how women feel about Oprah, Banksy has some pretty funny work, and James Cameron has some real pull in the movie industry.

Yea

The one gripe I have (and its big). Why the hell is Ashton Kutcher really on this list? In the description Time refers to “He is smart — smart enough to leave Punk’d when he could still be making money at it.” – To me this makes you moron! I know he has a ton of Twitter followers and that could be a big thing moving him onto this list, but who cares?

Where’s Howard Stern?

Thinkers

And finally the thinkers… making the world go around. Thank goodness for Steve Jobs, everything he makes is awesome (just don’t get a first generation version of anything cause they are always flawed). They make great, really cool, and incredible stuff!

MGMT’s Kids Played on Ukuleles


I stumbled across this video on youtube the other day. It’s a cover of MGMT’s Kids played entirely on Ukuleles. I thought it would suck at first, but then I watched it. It actually isn’t half bad. Anyways, check it out and decide for yourself…

Another bunch of Crazy A$$holes!


It was only 3 days ago when I posted a clip of the crazy bastard who roller bladed his way into the “Idiot Hall of Fame.” But as I can clearly see now there are many other ways to be totally crazy.

Shock Factor Time!

I feel there should not be any reason that someone should feel terrified to state their opinion. As I am sure many of you have heard, the creators of “South Park” were at it again recently and this time they are getting negative remarks (but in a way I sure as hell would never want). In their recent 200th and 201st episode the Comedy Central series went back to an idea that got them bad press before, depicting the Muslim religious figure Mohammad in a bear costume. However this time they aren’t just getting slapped on the wrist, this time they are being told to watch their backs.

A website devoted to the followers of the Muslim faith, RevolutionMuslim.com, blogged that Trey Parker and Matt Stone should be careful with what they depict on their show because they may turn out like Theo Van Gogh (who if you don’t know is dead for depicting Muhammad in his show). I will give these guys credit for not backing down and standing up for themselves – and even going so far as to calling out Comedy Central for censoring the 201st episode. But guys seriously… radicals in any form of the word often don’t appreciate or find anything funny about what you think is humorous.

I do hope this doesn’t get out of hand as I believe the guys at South Park Studios don’t mean to offend, but rather just act as the “Shock factor” in life. Either way its crazy.

City of Staples. Literally…Staples!


What can you accomplish with 40 hours and 100,000 staples? How about a little staple city called Ephemicropolis. “Stacks of staples were broken into varying sizes from full stacks about 12cm high down to single staples.” Check out Peter Root’s website to see some pictures of Ephemicropolis and some more cool art.

Modern Day Mobsters


Slater!

I look at this picture and I want to laugh. In what world would any person assume Christian Slater or Patrick Dempsey could be mobsters. The most frightening person in the photo is RICHARD GREICO!!!! (The punch line of “Night at the Roxbury”).

But with today’s news and interview with real mob man Goodfella Henry Hill, I now learn that there might be a place for these “mobsters” in today’s mob world. The recent mob bust, that included charges for Racketeering and Murder also now include charges on underage prostitution. In Hill’s words, “anything to make a buck” including going against all that is right and put young women in situations like these. With this being said, I may just now believe that Christian Slater is a more bad ass gangster than the modern day one.

I am giving advice for the crime syndicate, just stick to controlling unions.
