Introducing Upgrade / Downgrade

Hey everyone,

Well, I've gotten a glimpse of what my next 4-5 weeks will be like and it ain't nowhow pretty. Between 40 hours of work every week, coupled with the 15 hours of school and at least the same of schoolwork and projects, I will be about as useful as c*ck-flavoured lollipop (Dodgeball was funny) when it comes to posting.

What I'm trying to get at here is that I won't be around as much. Maybe once a week, tops. You can hope that Mizzle posts, and I'm also playing around with the idea of having another writer added to the lineup, but first I have to think who would be interested, let alone any good at it.

Well, the Ask B.a.D has gone over well... I'm going to keep going with that, but I got an idea for a new column.



Upgrade / Downgrade


Showtime For Arrested Development



All accounts are confirming that Arrested Development (watch it) has been picked up by Showtime, with nothing but the official word to wait on. This is the best possible news that AD fan(atic)s such as myself could have hoped for (watch it), as it means that not only will the funniest show on TV (watch it) continue, but it has moved away from the festering boil of a network known as FOX.

Big upgrade!

P.c.P's Quote For Today:
"Hi everyone. I'm Jason Bateman from Arrested Development... or, as FOX likes to call us... not-American-Idol."

Randy Orton Golden Showers His Way Into WM22

Rey Mysterio has gotten his world title shot at WM22... which would be prime for a big upgrade, but that heinous oxygen theif Randy Orton has still managed to gum his way into the match, thus making it a triple threat. Triple threats, especially main events, are notoriously difficult to make not-predictable for even the most capable techicians. With Mysterio and Angle being incredibly capable in the ring and certainly compatible for a main event world title match, as anyone who saw their 2003 stuff will know, Orton is... y'know, an injury-prone 4-move wrestler, and Mysterio and Angle, along with everyone else it seems, are less than thrilled with the idea of him dragging down their sure-to-have-been-a-classic. But it's WWE, so screw logic and popular opinion. Factor in that Orton will probably sneak in with an RKO and win the whole f*ckin' thing from two amazing wrestlers, and this gets a big downgrade.


Island Among Movies

I'm not sure if I've plugged "The Island" movie on the site yet or not, but here's my chance. Easily my favourite movie of 2005, and a huge upgrade from any other movies I've seen in the last memorable while. If you haven't checked it out, then get on it. It rocks.

Never Bet On The Token Black Guy In A Reality TV Pool

Bobby got axed off Survivor on Thursday. I don't watch Survivor anymore, or any reality TV for that matter, this is only signifigant to me because of the reality TV pool that we started in the office. For some reason I got it in my head that the token muscular black guy would win this time, but Bobby's ass got soaped and KKK'ed on the fourth week. F*ck. Add to this that the other reality pool (Amazing Race) that Kathy started, where this time we actually drew contestants from a hat, and I got the token black team. Again. Barring a miracle, downgrade.

I Barely Passed My Sociology Midterm

Sweet mother-of-various-gods. Normally this would be a downgrade, but I'm finding Psychology and Sociology to be nipples-on-a-blind-lesbian-in-a-fish-market-hard, so upgrade!


That's it for Upgrade / Downgrade. Hope you enjoyed.

Before I go, there's an issue that I'd like to bring up in a future post, so I'd like to prep you before the surgery. Why are potentially dangerous drugs illegal? I assume the reasoning is that it will keep people from hurting themselves. But the penalty for attempting to hurt yourself is that you are sent to prison where a guy named Heywood Jablowme punches out your front teeth and rents you to the Aryan Brotherhood for parties. After about 15 years of that, you’ll think twice about trying to hurt yourself? Is that it? Smoke for thought.

B.a.D



Mizzle Sez

Yes! That's great news! For those of you who have not yet started watching AD, then I suggest you get on it. I don't need to give any reasons why you should since B.a.D over the past few seasons has given you plenty.

I had a sh*tload more things to talk about here such as explaining my reason for no post for my trip to San Diego, but apparently B.a.D doesn't know how to use modern technology and some how lost the entire f*cking thing. I guess that's what you get for trying to check your e-mail on your phone...

Look, if it's not a black berry... don't treat it like it's one... *sigh*

So I will have my laptop with me in Phoenix this week so I'll build some sort of post. Expect more dialogue regarding the lost e-mail.
