A little bit of satire, a little bit of truth – all in fun!
Virtually WorkingPosted by murderous.intention on March 10, 2009
This is usually how I find Christopher working. None of us are sure exactly what he does for a living, but he does have many tech-ese terms that he throws around at us. Here is an illustration of a day in the life of him – you can substitute me for DH, DS or anyone else who may stop by to see what he is doing in bed.
Coolio Arrested for Crack and Battery?Posted by murderous.intention on
Well, I have to say he did look a little bit tweeked when he was on Big Brother UK. Arrested in LAX for possession of a crack pipe, and grabbed the woman who was about to check his bag.

2001 Called & they want their storage back. Huh? NetApp Marketing.Posted by murderous.intention on February 23, 2009
What happens when middle aged white men finally get around to watching 8 Mile? What could be as dated as an Alanis Morrisette references in a Spiderman comic? Or maybe NetApp’s marketing took a page from Microsoft’s marketing department in how to utterly confuse your potential customers about what you offer and what you are trying to say to them about your products. This crazy rap video featuring a Rap Battle is about as relevant to storage as Bill Gates’ buying shoes is relative to… what? I’m not even sure what Microsoft was trying to sell me with the those multi-million dollar Seinfeld / Gates commercials. At least NetApp had lyrics that dissed the competition and spoke somewhat about their product. Though I do not know what a D2 is, I did think that this video came close to D12 (in respect to having a white guy rapping).
I would love to know what the thought process is at the advertising meeting , “Hey, I just saw this dope new movie I think it would make a great hip and edgy ad for us…” “But will our customers understand what we are trying to say?” “Who cares we’ll get all the p*ssy we can handle as rap mega stars”. The only thing weirder is the EMC2 dating video – how much dorkier can you get than admitting you are a geek who has to date vicariously through his storage device? At least NetApp has the juevos to try and come off as hard core gangsta instead of someone who is creepily fascinated with animism and getting laid.
So what have I gotten out of all of this? What I already knew – that marketing, and life is all about the pootang.
Entrecard MarketPosted by murderous.intention on
I want to tell you about the Entrecard Market, not because I am altruistic, because I could win 100,000 credits and also because I have a listing there. I just adore this new market because I am, as you may already know by reading this blog, a shopaholic. Now I can get things without spending money – just taking a few minutes to visit some blogs and earn some credits. There are tons of things to buy, physical goods, advertising, comments, tweets and more.
My listing is for a Choice of Sterling Chinese Zodiac Pendant and Chain. and I have it listed at 6500 ECs which includes shipping. My pricing is based on what EC credits cost to purchase, the converted retail price of the item and a little extra because I am paying for the shipping.
Entrecard credits are $29 for 5,000 and $6 for $1,000 if you purchase them or free if you simply drop cards on other people’s sites and they drop on yours, you also get credits for blog posts. Card dropping is a virtual digital way to leave a 125 x 125 business card in someone’s “mailbox”. It is a great way to find new sites and for people to find you driving internet traffic. Here is a little video about Entrecard.
What THE What?? Cow Urine to become Soft Drink like Pee-psi?Posted by murderous.intention on February 11, 2009
India To Launch Cow Urine As Soft Drink
Does your Pepsi lack pep? Is your Coke not the real thing? India’s Hindu nationalist movement apparently has the answer: a new soft drink made from cow urine.
The bovine brew is in the final stages of development by the Cow Protection Department of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), India’s biggest and oldest Hindu nationalist group, according to the man who makes it.
Om Prakash, the head of the department, said the drink – called “gau jal”, or “cow water” – in Sanskrit was undergoing laboratory tests and would be launched “very soon, maybe by the end of this year”.
“Don’t worry, it won’t smell like urine and will be tasty too,” he told The Times from his headquarters in Hardwar, one of four holy cities on the River Ganges. “Its USP will be that it’s going to be very healthy. It won’t be like carbonated drinks and would be devoid of any toxins.”

Bill Gates – Gone BatSh*tCrazy – Got $ Get Away with A lotPosted by murderous.intention on February 6, 2009
Believing that not only the poor should suffer mosquitos and malaria, Gates unleashed a swarm of the little bloodsuckers in a crowd recently. Wow, guess when you have more money than G-d you can do whatever you like to people.
Wii All Star Cheer Squad Review – Give Me A…Posted by murderous.intention on February 5, 2009
Not really worth the $39.99 I spent at Target. Oh, I was so excited to pick this up I didn’t even cringe when the sales associate gave me and DH that “Aren’t you a little old for this game and the Wii Pom Pom Controllers?” look. Which might I add, the guy at GameStop said did not exist – oh, they so do! And they stink as well, you can’t use the controller on screen through the pom poms so I had to remove them each time I needed to click on something – which was a lot with the amount of text scrolling this game uses. Don’t even get me started on the annoying cheerleader repartee (if it can even be called that) – think an even worse remake of Bring it On – or its sequel – yes that bad. I made it through the training 1, 2 & 3 and just could not take anymore.
I liked customizing my cheerleader, but even that wasn’t enough to make me enjoy my game. I may try it again though and revamp my review, but for now I am not impressed. The time it takes to initialize the balance board and I still haven’t needed to use it.
I shall deny you 3 times – Facebook Marriage RequestPosted by murderous.intention on February 2, 2009
DH and I were updating our Facebooks, MySpaces, etc. and he had to change his relationship status to married – and it asked to who, so he typed me in, but it didn’t just believe him – so it sent me a request to confirm our relationship status. When I clicked to confirm it said “Congratulations you are in a relationship with…” or something like that. I wonder if you can divorce someone on Facebook, or if stating you are in a relationship and confirming can be seen as legally binding?
