Interesting concept...

My friend introduced me to this series a while ago, where every day there is a video of different men of different ages, origins, etc detailing their very different ideas about love and sex. It's super fascinating, but my favourite, of course, is of this young boy already trying his best to be a gentleman:



The Man's Guide To Love #380 from themansguidetolove on Vimeo.

The website has a huge archive of even more of these videos here at The Man's Guide to Love. Enjoy.

Banana = success

Lady Gaga is back, and with her, so is the kid who likes singing Lady Gaga hits into a banana. You may remember him from Bad Romance, but with a new CD, comes new dance moves.

Wilderness Update

Wilderness is going okay. People talked about Gary Oak Trees at
great length. I made a pokemon joke. Room went silent. No one
understood. Socially Awkward Penguin to the max (silence also followed that).

YAM'S JAMS #02: Bacon Wonders

It's time for another sesh with Yam's Jams. Notice how I use a lot of abbreviations when conducting this segment?



This is a video recently shown to me, but the obsession has grown and grown to the point where I pretty much watch it once a day. If I could, I would post the whole episode, but this segment is just a pure showing of the reasons why reality television should be eligible for the Emmys and Golden Globes.

(AND NOT JUST THE AMAZING RACE, WINNING LIKE EVERY YEAR SINCE FOREVER. What is that?! I preach Tyra, and I'm sure they're just not ready to overstep the traditional boundaries of what constitutes "correct good television". Uplifting and inspiring stories? No way. Give me the trashy pregnant teenagers spending their Mom's credit cards instead of taking care of their kids. Trashy reality TV is the plus-size model of the TV world.)

This video presents the core of our society. Classic: the cultural clash between the treadmill and McDonalds. It certainly rings close to home.

Finally, and most importantly: how can a 7-year-old sound so much like an 50-year-old man?

PS: So I'm pretty sure the Ginge part of this blog's twosome is now AWOL in the wilderness of Canada. That's right: there are places in the world without internet or computer. I don't really know if someone can really exist without an internet presence... but I guess I'd just like to hope that she returns as she promised. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy my posts without K's presence.
