Sound Advice 41: Movie Madness 4: Why Are You...
My brother, Mike Fugere, thought it would be fun to do a whole bit on our podcast about Twitter. I think he’s wrong, but it’s there, existing in the internet’s crevices. If you can get through that, however, there’s a good Movie Madness bit right after.

What's Up With Ducks?
I have a hard time understanding a comfortable life for the micro. I’m well aware it’s possible; there are plenty of tiny things that exist all around me. I don’t have a hard time understanding the opposite either: the macro. I understand, or at the very least appreciate, the scale of the world and the solar system and the galaxy and the universe. That concept is something I’m able to grasp, even...

How Do You Guys Feel About Your Bodies?
Because they’re gross. I don’t mean in terms of attraction. I’m sure you’re an absolutely pleasant person to stare at from a distance. Rather, I’m talking about what your body does. Really think about it for a few seconds. Just consider how many holes you have. Count the ones you are absolutely sure of and then realize that there are way more tiny holes you can’t count. The fact that we aren’t...

sirbombalot asked: Would you rather have someone turn a can of air upside-down and spray that magical freezing spray stuff on your toes every night before you went to bed, or have the weather change to extremely rainy every time you went to the beach or an amusement park, ruining the day for not only yourself, but everyone else?

The HBO Television Series "Girls" And A YouTube...
Recently the Home Box Office television channel premiered an original series called “Girls.” Starring, created, written, and directed by Lena Dunham, “Girls” is a show about a few 20-somethings living in New York City. The first episode was mostly met with high praise as many critics agreed that it is sharply written and very humorous. As of now, I’ve seen the first...

I Am Addicted To Homeless People
I’m addicted to thinking about homeless people. What they do during the day. Where they go. How they smell. Where they use the bathroom. How they deal with boredom. How they think and feel and what it’s like to realize you’re one of them.
Don’t get me wrong, I ignore homeless people just as much as you do. I’m really good at ignoring them despite how much I think about them. I just pretend they’re...

Sound Advice 40: Dead Horsecast
On a very I-can’t-believe-I-would-take-a-dumb-joke-this-far special episode of Sound Advice, my brother, some friends, and I explore the notion and existence (or lack thereof) of dead horses. We’ve got an interview with someone who sells dead horse meat, an interview with a real life dead horse, the top 10 dead fictional horses as told by Michael Fugere, and a few opinion pieces on...

Food Blog 2: Fooder Than Ever
It’s been awhile since my last food blog, so I figured I needed to really up my internet game by showing people what I’m going to/have already put into my mouth. I’ll stick to just what has been going on today, so I’ll be showing you pictures of the things I already put into my body earlier and what I plan to put into my body a little later.
Gummi Sharks (Throughout the day)

The Waste of Tiny Mammals
Kopi Luwak is an expensive novelty coffee that comes from the waste of a small mammal called a civet. Quite simply, a civet eats a cherry-like fruit that covers a coffee bean. The bean doesn’t get broken down in the little critter’s belly, and what is left is collected by some guy whose job description is “collecting animal waste and selling it to people who are into that kind of thing.”
In the...

sirbombalot asked: Would you rather be put to death by the death penalty, knowing that you'd totally get to chill with Jesus in Heaven and play Contra all day, BUT he has no snacks at his place, you have to be P2, and you're always on fire and can FEEL the burn, though it doesn't hurt THAT much, or be set free from the death sentence, but every food you eat for the rest of your life tastes like black...

sirbombalot asked: Would you rather be forced to have sex with a jar of peanut butter every day who often patronizes you and embarrasses you in front of your friends, or spend a month in prison, where everyone makes you dress up like Bubbles from "The Powerpuff Girls" and massage your butthole, telling you their fingers are Chemical X?

How To Get The Most Out Of A Baby
“If you’ve got a perfectly good baby just sitting around, you damn well better use it to make stuff”
-Hemingway
I’m a practical man. When I see a problem, I try to solve it. When I need to solve it, I use any tool at my disposal. That’s where babies come in. Sure, babies are good for normal baby stuff (feeding, devouring your energy, being a warm thing to put other things next to), but can’t...

I was on The Indie & Mojo Show Episode 30.
Topics covered:
Batman
Pregnant teenagers
Video game things
Check it out. Daniel and Jeremy are both really interesting and funny guys. I think I made them uncomfortable, but that might be the sole reason they had me on. Also, they’re giving away a copy of Star Wars: The Old Republic just for saying nice things to me. You have no reason...

Doomsday Scenario
Today, in a shocking announcement that sent socially inept people around the world in a fit of rage, the internet proclaimed they are officially out of cat-oriented content.
“We’ve been aware of a possible depletion of cat-themed videos, captioned pictures, memes, .gifs, and just about every other possible electronic medium,” the internet confessed. “We just figured it was a problem that was going...

I Submit Q For Your Consideration
Q is by far the most useless letter of the alphabet. Everything from its sound to its aesthetic value lacks the importance and finesse of every other letter. Even the lesser used bits of the alphabet—our Zs or Xs—serve a more valuable and aesthetically pleasing purpose than any version of Q has or can or ever will (look at how awesome and cool Z and X look, you add them to an idea to make it...
