I can't tell if this is a YRMC or not

Seriously. I just don't know. In case you didn't see "Zack Morris" on "Late Night" with "Jimmy Fallon," here it is.

I really don't know what to say here. Part of my (the YRMC part) is saying NONONONONONONO and plugging its ears and hiding in the back bottom part of the closet where you have those zoomba pants your mom made you when you saw AC Slater wearing them THE FIRST TIME HE WAS ON TV. And part of me knows this will be AWESOME.

Daily YRMC

So...this one's new.

I'll admit to having watched both Dragon Ball and it's sequel/sister series Dragon Ball Z when I was younger and Toonami on Cartoon Network didn't make me weep. And it was on in the afternoon so it couldn't play Cowboy BeBop because kids would OF COURSE start running around pretending they had cybernetic arms and knew jeet kun do. And yes, Toonami does make me weep big fat tears now when I do see it, which means when I crash at my parents' house and can't sleep late enough at night that it's kinda sad. Because I miss the days when Gundam (not Gundam Wing, but the ORIGINAL Gundam) and the Knights of the Zodiac were on EVERY DAY and I could watch Outlaw Star to my heart's content and do my French homework while eating something I knew I shouldn't have. And my thirteen-year-old self was happy.

But that's besides the point. Dragon Ball Evolutionhit theaters on my birthday over a week ago (the 10th, for those of you who don't know...thanks for the cards). I haven't seen it yet, but judging by the cast and the fact that it is NOT A CARTOON I'm guessing it won't be as awesome tediously full of power-ups awesome as the cartoon was. Because there is NOTHING BETTER than watching a weird, 'roids-pumped dude scream that he's REACHING LEVEL GOOGLEPLEX and GONNA BE A SUPER SEIYAN SAYAJIN SAIYAN (again) and then his hair goes all blond and 'splodey and it's fun.

Yes, I know it's inane and kinda stupid, but the show is just fun. There's no reason to say otherwise, even if it were to protect my reputation. But this is just hilarious.

Thanks to I09

The French have held a funeral for Goku because us stupid Americans ruined it.

Seriously. I can't make this stuff up. Just look at the LOSS on those poor Frenchboy's faces. What can we do to make them feel better? Maybe we should start making YRMC trophies...whoever cries the most wins?

Thank you, Gizmodo

It's been a long day, and this just made it for me.

Best office conversation EVER

This is more funny if I don't fully explain it.

Jessica sent me an email with the subject line "My lil Caitlin" (at least she didn't put KiKi).

The included picture was this:

I don't know where she found it, nor do I want to.

My response: Thanks...so much.

Jessica: You don't want to be my Jimmy Olsen. :(

Me: He always DIES.  But sure, I'll be Jimmy Olsen.

Jessica: Good.

Me: I mean, seriously.  It always comes down to him and Lois Lane, and he's always the one that DIES.

Jessica: That's just because Lois puts out.

Me: Maybe if Jimmy just grabbed his ankles every once in a while, we'd all be better off.

 

My office is awesome.

YRMC Daily (I hope)

Todays You Ruined My Childhood (see what I did there?) didn't actually ruin my childhood.  The first time I saw erotica of James "Logan" (aka Wolverine) Howlett and Remy (aka Gambit [really did they have to spell his name Remy?]) LeBeau alternately ruined and rocked my childhood.  But this was just too much.  And I know other people have posted this, but I wanted to share:

Seriously.  This actually exists.  And it is awesome for existing.  Though I think it makes a better bachelor/bachelorette party gag gift than children's toys.  Imagine the geeky fun that could ensue.
