Something is wrong with my friends. And my 360.
1. My friend took her boyfriend to a nice dinner last week at Schwa. She ate lamb brains. Actually, she took a bite of the brain and then told her boyfriend that it felt like she was “eating thoughts and memories,” and then she gave the rest to him. She said, “I couldn’t do it. There’s information and shit in there. I can’t eat information.”
2. Benefactor sent me picture mail from his phone. It took me just a moment to figure out what the hell was going on.

I wrote back, “Dude. Is that you giving the Hulk a blowjob?” He responded, “Correction: That’s me giving the Hulk an amazing blowjob. Did you completely miss the look on his face? He was blue when I started.”
3. My XBOX 360 isn’t reading disks. This is going to put a serious cramp in the dinner party activities considering I just picked up Rock Star. RANDOMESQ SMASH.

I’ve had lamb brain. I never thought about the whole memory thing, however, I wasn’t enthused with the taste so I only had a few bites.
She still get’s credit for trying it though.

Yes, she definitely does. I would pass on the lamb brains. In my head, it tastes metallic.

I think I threw up a little in my mouth… I’ll admit I’m a weenie. No lamb brains will cross these lips. In some regards I’m the most adventurous person I know. In regards to food…not so much.
I would try something weird if it were crunchy or dry… but squishy just freaks me out. I’ve eatten crickets for example, but brains? Hell no!
My inner 13 year old came roaring to the surface. I’ll admit it – that picture left me laughing out loud. Benefactor gets bonus points for humor and freakiness…two things that are a total must have.
Do you like your 360? We have the original Xbox that the kids still use, the Wii, psi, and something else I don’t remember… oh ya, gamecube. We’re sick…I know… And the kids will still complain about being bored?? I’m like WTF??!!! How can you be bored?

That picture is too funny
And now that I’m studying brains, I don’t think I could eat them because I’d be wondering if I was noshing on the amygdala or hippocampus or something. Knowledge – sometimes it’s not a good thing
Dude! You have to get your 360 up and running so we can play Rock Band! I’ve only been bugging you for months to get it so we can play via xBox live. I specialize in singing buttrock – particularly Blue Oyster Cult and Boston

1. Nasty.
2. That is SO funny!
3. Our 360 had the red circle of death light, we had to send it back for repairs. I guess it’s a really common problem.
I think I’m the only person who has never played Guitar Hero or Rock Band!

Tiffany – No brains for this kid, either. I’m not even that big a fan of tripe, let alone brains.
Yes, Benefactor has a good sense of humor.
I do like the 360 but I don’t play it often. It has been months since I last played. I have a Wii, as well (er, I realize I sound like a 14 year old…).
And you know what? Sometimes I’m still bored.
April 26th, 2008 at 10:21 pm
Krystie Lee – you aren’t. I’ve never played either before, too. I’m putting my faith in Plush to teach me.
April 26th, 2008 at 10:22 pm
Bev – I’m *ticked* that the bastard went dead (or I realized it was dead) on the day after getting Rock Band delivered. BOGUS. BO-GUS.

I love the “I can’t eat information” part. That cracked me up, especially considering my profession
Okay, after the hulk photo, I’m pretty sure you’re a stinky 6th grade boy writing this blog. A precocious one, but still in 6th grade
And all this video game talk spins my head. I’m old. We had ATARI and PacMan. That’s all I can remember. There, now I’ve gone and dated myself
April 27th, 2008 at 8:01 am
Brenda – that’s the part that made me laugh. In my head, I could hear her saying it so earnestly, “I can’t EAT INFORMATION.”
I’m in 6th grade? What about Benefactor? What grade is he in?
How old do you think I am?
April 27th, 2008 at 10:11 am
Great line – I can’t eat information. Hilarious. I mean you’d end up shitting information too wouldn’t you? And that would be bad.
Brenda, there is a box you can buy for like 50 bucks which hooks up to your TV and has pacman and all the other video games from your youth. It entertained my kid quite a bit. But like Tiffany, with wii, xbox, princess and spongebob video games, blah blah blah the whole freaking best buy of games, my daughter too will say she’s bored. I tell her to get used to it.

benefactor’s in 6th grade too, that’s how i guessed what grade you’re in silly
April 27th, 2008 at 10:43 am
Instigator – I thought that line was great, too. Your little one will begin online trading by year’s end, I’d wager.
April 27th, 2008 at 11:08 am
I **gasp** not only don’t want a dog (though that avatar mug of little filthy is growing on me, I confess) but I **double gasp** don’t like to play games. Of any kind. Not just video games
And I can’t cook.
I know. How DARE I comment on this blog. Away with me!
April 27th, 2008 at 3:28 pm
I love that picture
Hehe, that being said I made a decision a long time ago to get over the idea that some things are better than others simply because of my culture. Who knows? Brains and info may taste great. I’ve not tried them yet but I certainly would. Just because we don’t eat them a lot here doesn’t mean they don’t taste great. I’ve stumbled upon many things in foreign countries or even other states that I’ve loved. Maybe brains are next
Is your 360 flashing red lights?
April 27th, 2008 at 6:58 pm
Information? So funny! But they’re brains – brains???!!! I could never, ever eat brains – never. Major points to your friend for trying.
Love the Hulk picture.
April 27th, 2008 at 8:31 pm
Brenda, let me get this straight…
You don’t like dogs,
You don’t cook,
and you don’t play games.
*laugh* I’m shocked you find anything to comment on in my obnoxious blog! But I am not complaining. Stick around.
April 27th, 2008 at 8:32 pm
Lynchseattle – What about balut? Would you eat that?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balut
No, no red lights – I didn’t get the red rings of death. I think my laser crapped out. Dammit! That does not please me. How am I supposed to kick your ass in a Boston song? And Plush wants to kick someone’s ass, too!
April 27th, 2008 at 8:33 pm
Ms. Single Mama – You’re so kind to take time to comment. You’ve got to be the busiest woman an earth.
And yeah, I’m with you – not too keen on the brain-eating.
April 27th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
I find it kind of alarming when someone sees an obscure, fuzzy picture of a person giving head and they say, “That must be a sixth grader.”
Sorry, that whole line of comment made me giggle. I’ve got to get back to my icepack. I still have whiplash from the money shot.

Benefactor:
I work with the little hyper-hormonal pubescent people
Uhm. I assumed the person was not actually GIVING head, but making a juvenile joke, as in the kind a 6th grader would find amusing. Silly!
R-
Oh and the little doggie makes me smile
(I know I know, I said I don’t like dogs. So sue me. Ooops! I didn’t mean that last one!
You’re funny, that’s why I read
April 27th, 2008 at 9:31 pm
Haha, sadly I’m familiar with Balut but haven’t had it
Meh… I’ll try… ugh… anything [food] once I guess
