« I have a dream. | Main | Wonky » January 22, 2002Satan is my motorGood morning, everyone. Boy, I'm still getting used to the new Moveable Type interface. It's crazy. Cool, but crazy. I just have a few announcements this morning: 1. Cake is playing a live concert on the internet, today. It starts at 11AM PST, which means I'll miss most of it, because I'll be on an audition. 2. I wrote another story for BBSpot a few weeks ago, and completely forgot to post about it here. 3. I saw this really cool story all about the history of video games, from 1889 to the present, at Gamespot. 4. I have some very exciting and fairly major news about some live shows that you can see me in, provided you're in Los Angeles. I'll make the announcement in the next few days. 5. Have you checked out the new crap^H^H^H^H cool stuff I added to the stores, just for Valentine's day? Can you think of a better way to tell your sweetie you love her than with a WFS box of candy? Mmmm...Classy! Har. 6. I got an email over the weekend, that I am a pre-finalist for several Bloggies™, including best new weblog, and weblog of the year. Holy Crap! I've never really won anything, ever. So just being a pre-finalist (is that like being "pre-selected" by Ed McMahon for the publisher's clearing house thingy?) is pretty exciting to me. :) Finally,I need to publicly thank forever_the_optimist for her patience. forever_the_optimist won the eBay auction of my Star Trek Lunchbox, and I've been so busy with work and family obligations, I haven't been able to properly sit down, sign the stuff, and send it. If I was forever_the_optimist, I'd be seriously stressed out at TVs Wil Wheaton, but she's been really cool and understanding. It will be signed and sent tonight. No more delays. I'm off. I'm going to put myself together, and get ready for my audition. Have a great day, everyone. Comments
Man.... Wil for $253.49 you better put a decent sack lunch of a PBJ sandwitch and a Bananna in the box and Fill the thermos with Soup before you mail it off. Posted by: Jacob Metcalf at January 22, 2002 09:34 AMIt'll be all moldy.. gross. Posted by: Jennifer In Lubbock at January 22, 2002 09:34 AMOMFG!!! I actually get to comment on something here! I've been wondering for a long time (maybe a month or so) if it was even possible to comment on stuff in Wil's weblog. Or is it just that he rarely turns on comments? Anyway, I feel much better now. Hi, Wil! I never hated Wesley. I'm too old (44), and I was more concerned with Deanna and Beverly anyway. Posted by: John at January 22, 2002 09:38 AMAll very cool. Good Luck on your audition. Think twice about wishing you lived near L.A. It's a town filled with deceit, trickery, and mind pollution... Posted by: grrl in LA at January 22, 2002 10:03 AMWho do you think nominated you for all that stuff? Me, of course. But only after I nominated me. You see where you rank to the cheese? Much, much farking higher, apparently. That's it. Everyone read the cheese! Seriously. It's cleverly disguised as UnrealisticExpectations.com. Cheese. Posted by: Roughy at January 22, 2002 10:13 AMWil! Sounds like you have an exciting day, well I also thought Wesley was cool and didn't understand why people had something against him. Must be a Star Trek thing. Anyway have fun...stay sarcastic lol Posted by: Jay Roberts at January 22, 2002 10:17 AM>> It'll be all moldy.. gross. Yes. But it will bear official mold spores cultivated from the kitchen of Wil Wheaton and nurtured upon the banana purchased at the Safeway not three miles away from the home of Wil Wheaton. That's called added value. Wil, Whattup with this non-resizeable pop-up window? I got me this big-ass monitor here and your tiny window refuses to take advantage of the elbow room available in Virtual Big Sky Country. Free the window! Free the window! Lose this... width=480,height=480 Posted by: Spudnuts at January 22, 2002 10:22 AMOMG!!!! I didnt know you could even comment on what is being said, how cool is this. I love the web site it is just so much fun to read, I reckon we'd get on if we ever met you seam to have the same sence of hummor I do. As for that web site (yatta) thing, I have never laughed so hard in my life. I had people come into me room thinking I was having yet another asthma attack, and when they watched it, they laughed to. How do you start your own web site and stuff? I really ought to learn one day, especially since I was given this free computer. What do you think about england? Posted by: Beastly_spike at January 22, 2002 10:26 AM$20.02 in Bloggies prize money. The politicing for votes will be intense. You need some of those little candy "message" hearts in the store. "WFS LUVS U" Posted by: Fred Fowler at January 22, 2002 10:31 AMyay! spudnuts is back! Posted by: elfgirl at January 22, 2002 10:38 AMGood Luck on the audition! Congrats on the site! -Armothe Mould is one of those rare things that goes from being yucky to being impressively wonderous - if you leave it long enough, that is. There's something very cool about having fluffy bits growing out of the top of your coffee mug. Or maybe not; still, when you forget about that half empty mug you left behind a server cabinet you have to find the good points in the situation. Some moulds are also way cool - like slime moulds. See http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_944000/944790.stm BTW, Mozilla lets me resize this 'ere window. Shame the text entry box doesn't follow (damn COLS for being a required attribute, you'd need to muck about with JavaScript to make it dynamic...), but everything else does. Tum-te-tum. Posted by: Dai Vernon at January 22, 2002 10:44 AMCandy hearts... best ones I've seen this year are by Despair Inc (who also do wonderful demotivational calendars). See http://www.despair.com/bittersweets.html Posted by: Dai Vernon at January 22, 2002 10:49 AMThank you SO MUCH for the heads up on the Cake webcast! I loooooove Cake. Posted by: Laura at January 22, 2002 10:56 AMQuick tip for those fighting with the non-resizable window: rather than clicking on the 'Comments (x)' link, click on the time the post was made. That'll bring up a normal window with the post, the comments, and a comment entry box at the bottom. Ah, the joys of a new blog system...going through the same growing pains myself. 'Course, I don't have the umpteen millions of readers that Uncle Willie does...the jury's still out on whether that's good or bad. ;) Posted by: djwudi at January 22, 2002 11:04 AMOh - and good luck on the audition, Wil! Guess you just can't have your Cake and hear it to, huh? Um...or...something like that. Posted by: djwudi at January 22, 2002 11:06 AMgood luck at the audition mr. broccoli. Posted by: Wil Wheathin at January 22, 2002 11:11 AMWow, the ability to comment! I wish that I could send WFS some of those Valentine's chocolates. He's so dreamy. Good luck on the audition! (I always thought that everyone loved Wesley, I know I did.) Posted by: Suzanne at January 22, 2002 11:29 AMSpudnuts is right about the pop-up window. Better yet, display the comments normally instead of in a new window. I have to toggle off my pop-up-buster each time I want to read the comments. Resizeable (relative, via CCS's "em" designation) text would also be a godsend. Look at your page in IE and use CTRL-mouse wheel. Some of your text is at a fixed size, while other text is resizeable. Bah, give users back the control they deserve. Posted by: JS at January 22, 2002 11:42 AMSpudnuts *and* comments are back? Can this possibly be true? Good luck on the audition today, Wil. Posted by: Vanessa at January 22, 2002 12:07 PMI never knew that video games harkened back to the 1889! Another item to add to by useless knowledge collection. And by the way, the winner of the bloggie of the year, with his(or her) prize money of 2,002 cents, will be required to buy lunch for the rest of the winners. And, because of the mold controversy, may I suggest granola bar and a cheezy snack? Cheezy snack will never be moldy anyways, since it be mostly oil in the first place. How do you feel about cheeze that's not made out of real cheese, Roughy? Do you feel violated? Posted by: Jun at January 22, 2002 12:08 PM>Spudnuts *and* comments are back? Can this possibly be true? Not to mention Roughy and JSc. Goodbye work getting done, hello all, it's good to be back. Shiggeti Shiggeti Shwa. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 22, 2002 12:15 PMWelcome back, comments! Nice job converting to MT, but you might want to put in some l/r margins for the middle section which currently runs flush up against the light purple... and some bolding maybe on the date/entry titles? Mucho mojo on the audition... Posted by: sandra at January 22, 2002 12:28 PMeveryone must go to SomethingAwful right now and read all about the exciting new contest!!! we should all participate and curry favor with wil by submitting entries with him in it! >:) oh and YAY! da comments is back up! Posted by: AuntyMo at January 22, 2002 12:54 PMFor a really good history of the video game... get The First Quarter.. Fascinating read. Posted by: Francesca at January 22, 2002 01:00 PMHey Wil, Anyone else watch it? --Sean Posted by: Sean McCullough at January 22, 2002 01:03 PMROFLMAO!!! hehe... ok, maybe it wasn't that funny... but the story at BBSpot was funny... clever, even. I enjoyed way much. :~) Bloggies... hehe... Hope you win... Very cool that you are a pre-finalist. Good luck on it. Also good luck going on the audition!! hehe... I'm still on this ST:TNG kick... was a marathon on yesterday on TNN... I watched Lwaxana Troi becoming "human" in a way. Unnerving, really. Now, I'm off to Unrealistic Expectations for some cheese, or something. Bye. Posted by: Jessica at January 22, 2002 01:04 PMWil, glad you got my email about the Bloggies. Pretty exciting, huh? You can bet I'll be making sure you get into the actual finalists list. Posted by: Ariel at January 22, 2002 01:06 PMWait...the OJ thing is fiction?!?! Good luck on the audition, Wil. We'll send major vibes towards the left coast! Posted by: Jon at January 22, 2002 01:13 PMMust add a Twinkie to that lunchbox. No worries about mold there. Sooo glad comments are back on. Missed 'em lots. Cake concert was good. How was the audition? Good luck with pilot season. How will the season impact your writing? Posted by: Joy at January 22, 2002 01:21 PMhey hun, Just like to say....... GREAT TO SEE EVRYONE BACK IN HERE!!!! i've missed you guys!! Great that you now have the comments sorted Wil! Look forward to reading the varied responses to your entries! P.S. Good Luck! oh my goodness! ooh who's the smarty who won't let me resize the window, hmm? good luck with the competition etc. your oj story actually had me laughing out loud. Posted by: emma at January 22, 2002 02:10 PMNow I have the image of little blue-gray bits floating around the top of a coffee mug in my head. Lovely. I wish I lived near L.A. too, I freakin' (farking?) loved it when I was there!! Hope the audition turns out as you want it to turn out, Wil. Whoa, this site works again. Sweet. Wil is cool. Umm.. Is everyone spending their Tuesday afternoon the same way I am... Listening to In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida while eating waffles? America. Love it or leave it! Posted by: Spudnuts at January 22, 2002 02:28 PMi love Slayer's version spud. hey hun, Posted by: Jessica La Placa at January 22, 2002 02:58 PM Way off reply topic - someone today pointed out that Dr. King's dream was not that his children could play in a yard that was as big as mine, or with toys that were as expensive as the ones my children have, or in a house that is as nice as my house. He wanted our children to play TOGETHER. I want them to play together too. No matter what kind of neighborhood we live in. Posted by: rufus at January 22, 2002 02:59 PMWow. I didn't think SpudlyNutters would be back. So nice to have him back. The cheese hates the spudnuts and his damned funny self. The cheese is envious...and no one likes green chizzeez, now, do they? No, they do not. Rob Matsusioaghasdhaghsgshita is a friend of the cheese, even though the cheese cannot spell or say his name. Same for this "jsc" character (read 'jisc'). Cheese. Posted by: Roughy at January 22, 2002 03:05 PMD'oh, I should really read this Blog twice a day... I would have loved watching the Cake concert... Thanks for the comments feature... Posted by: Alexis at January 22, 2002 03:16 PMGood luck with the audition and the millions more that will be coming your way. I can't imagine that anyone would let you have a minute to yourself if there was any chance of working with you. I didn't always like Wes. Like a brother, he had good points, bad points and really bad days with the cosmic bullseye focused on him. I was just jealous that no matter what the universe dished, Wes dished back. Somehow, when I dish back, the cheesecake lands upside down on the floor near the cat's bowl. Thanks to Laura for the resizeable window tip. .. and why were we seeing pix of your bathroom? :) Nice site, Wil. Good to be able to see comments from Comments are Back!! Good luck tonight and wanted to tell you, Love the pic of you and your wife. Posted by: Drea at January 22, 2002 04:19 PMI don't know...something about advertising one's website on anothers blog comments doesn't sit right with me. I tend to not visit sites that do this. Rather, if the comment is interesting and intelligent, I read the poster's profile and go from there. Like the guy who says "go to my show and I'll go to yours". Something seems really wrong with that. I feel the same about someone sneaking in a question to the blogger in hopes he picks you out of the crowd. The farkers are approaching fast;since I'm not a part of that exclusive "clique", it's back to the shadows for me. Posted by: SuvaU at January 22, 2002 04:48 PMHey Wil, I hope the audition went well, man! How wierd is this. I work with a guy, whose wife went to school with the wife of Sean Astin. Just, what, last week...Wil had the article heaping praise upon Lord of the Rings (duely derserving said praise, of course) and until then, it never even dawned on me that Wil knew him. It's kinda like that "7 degrees of Kevin Bacon" or whatever....wierd. Posted by: Turtles11 at January 22, 2002 05:08 PMY'know as they say... Don't make fun of Nerds b/c they rule the world! :) I think whoever made fun of Wil Wheaton b/c of his character was obviously closed minded. I mean sheesh those people who hate "Wesley"...uh..if they still hate Wesley today and hate Wil because of it, they need to get a life. It was only a TV show. Y'know? I love reading Wil's logs b/c they are interesting!!
Break a leg/Merde a la treizieme force! Let us know for what and when when you can! Have really enjoyed the site! Posted by: Kazfeist at January 22, 2002 05:41 PMhey spudnuts, i love your website. the design is sleek, yet impressive; reminiscent of david bowie's leotard-clad package in labrynth. i'd like to employ you to create a promotional campaign for my new range of egg-lickers. Posted by: hot soup girl at January 22, 2002 06:22 PMTwo Words: "Hollow Pursuits." Come ON!!! Did you have a lot of fun eating all of that pie with Mr. Barclay in the holosuite on yesterday;s TNG episode? *applauds* very wonderful performance, Wil! ROFTLMAO! ;) Posted by: Robbie at January 22, 2002 06:23 PMOk Let me revise my eariler posting. You should include a can or soup and some bannana chips and some Peanut butter and crackers in a pre-packaged plastic wrap. that would be more hygenic. Posted by: Jacob Metcalf at January 22, 2002 06:26 PMLadies and Gents, Thanks for the preemptive "welcome backs," though JS and me are not the same person. Thus the "c" after "JS" in my sig. But hey. Who the fark cares. More importantly than Roughy or Rob or me or (dare I say it?) Spudnuts, WW.N is back up! Not necessarily as wonderful as back in the day (yes, I realize "the day" was a mere couple months ago--but EVERYTHING by DEFINITION was better "back in the day"), but certainly far better than this pale shadow we've seen during the "dark age" of WW.N. AND YET MORE IMPORTANTLY!!!! Mr. Wheaton (SIR!) is doing incredibly well for himself! (Well, except for being downgraded to "third" after His stint on The Weakest Link. And except for Corey (F) Feldman making it into the top two--I turned it off at that point to avoid possibly seeing him win.) It sounds like His job prospects are looking up both within and outside the acting business, and His family life and holidays went well.... Mr. Wheaton (SIR!) is most definitely having a froody good time.
JSc Booyah, check out evil Wil Wheaton. bwahaha. I like the pic with the mullet. But's not news.. it's.. Posted by: Jennifer In Lubbock at January 22, 2002 06:35 PM>Rob Matsusioaghasdhaghsgshita is a friend of the cheese, even though the cheese cannot spell or say his name. Ways that my my name has been mis-spelled, mis-pronounced, or simply gotten wrong: Robert Mashed Potatoes ...and, of course: Ralph Haka-saki. Just to clear this up, my name is pronounced: God. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 22, 2002 07:53 PMAs a side note, Wil is one of maybe seven people to get my name right on the first try, hence, the whole him-rocking thing. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 22, 2002 07:54 PMI'm so glad I stumbled onto this site! I've always been a fan of Star Trek (so is the rest of my family) and it's great to find something new to feast my brain on. Anyway, It's was even cooler to find that Mr. Wil Wheaton did this site himself. When I first entered the URL, I half expected to find a fansite that looked like the rest of internet... boy, was I wrong! Mr. Wheaton, keep up the excellent work. You've obviously put a ton of time and dedication into this, and it's in no way going unnoticed. :-p Posted by: Liz at January 22, 2002 08:12 PMrob if im not mistaken your last name is the same as Panasonic's mother company, Matsushita Electronic Industrial Co.? Posted by: wil wheathins at January 22, 2002 08:16 PMow. I like reading your site, I check it often, but if you don't fix this, my eyeballs are going to fall out of my head. People who want to read font this sadistically small on a vast sea of white space a) have problems and 2) can set their own browsers to "cruel" Ah. I see it's a little better in IE. Netscape couldn't handle the buttons and makes the fonts worse. I suppose dual-browser support is too much to hope for. sigh Congrats on being pre-finalist for the Web Blog Wil. The cheese is down with the cause. Hey, where's that damn Mark Hamill guy, anyway? I still never got to the bottom of that whole light sabre dilemma. Does Mark ever post here on his message boards or is this just a bunch of Battlestar Gallactica fans hanging out? I definitely need to talk to Mark. Posted by: Roughy at January 22, 2002 09:08 PMWil - Great interactive site. Hope you nailed the audition. You have great (and interesting) fans. I especially empathize with Rob Matsushita's dilemna. We Irish can never get our names pronounced right. Regards. Posted by: Bill Bekkenhuis at January 23, 2002 03:14 AM>> hey spudnuts, i love your website. the design is sleek, yet impressive; reminiscent of david bowie's leotard-clad package in labrynth. What the hell are you talking about? Spudnuts.com has been closed for several months (years?). And the only site I have up now is the sparse Lakerbago, but how the hell could you know that URL since the only place I've posted it was on the Lakerboard which is currently NOT residing at Lakerboard.com, but rather at some undisclosed hidden URL known only to a handful of the most trusted Lakerboard regulars. What site of mine are you referring to? Certainly not the one I get PAID to maintain. That ONE is an ugly-ass beetch. And I'll NEVER reveal the URL of THAT monstrosity. Wil Wheathins said: rob if im not mistaken your last name is the same as Panasonic's mother company, Matsushita Electronic Industrial Co.? 'Tis true. Sadly, Matsushita is like the "Smith" of Japan, so I'm no relation. I get none of Panasonic's fat scratch.
That's why I married an Irish girl. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 23, 2002 04:43 AMHey! It's great to see comments back on this site again, even though we all know what's going to happen next. 100+ comments per blog will have wwdn bloated in no time flat, and wil will have to come up with yet another fun and interesting way to manage the spam. It's kind of like how Wesley was always having to bust his ass to save the Enterprise when all the adults were too busy getting addicted to video games or something. (That episode always reminded me of the beginning of Red Dwarf [the book that inspired the show], where all of the people were addicted to a game called "Better than Life".. but I have meandered away from my point...) Ok, correcting myself before I get a nasty email from someone nerdy and more pedantic than myself. Red Dwarf was a tv series first (1988)and the book to which I referred Red Dwarf: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers was written in 1989. Now, get back to work you slackers! Posted by: T. at January 23, 2002 05:42 AMspudnuts. i'm messing with your head. i was actually refering to the (presumably bogus) www.cracklinoatbran.com URL you attached to you posting earlier today. however, believe it or not, i *have* seen your lakerbago site, and it's precisely as enigmatic as expected. chunks of text and 'links' that went no-where except perhaps to another, virtually identical, page with a different date at the top. it felt like a puzzle i had no way of solving, like david lynch's 'lost highway' without the burning log cabin. Posted by: hot soup girl at January 23, 2002 06:26 AMHey Wil Wheaton! Dude, this is way cool, commenting.. now I feel really important, talking on *Wil Wheaton's* message board! Woo hoo. I was watching the Star Trek TNG marathon the other day too, and I don't know why everyone hates Wesley?! Does anyone know what's with all the kill.wesley.crusher.die.die sites? Aaanyway, hi Heidi! Hey, Wil Wheaton, do you know you have a harem? Me and Heidi are your concubines. Just thought you should know. > Posted by: Mary at January 23, 2002 07:16 AMWil, Gee, a harem? I see new T-shirts coming to the stores soon. "Wil Wheaton has a Harem"... "Who needs a F***king Posse? Wil has a Harem!"... "Real Geeks all have Harems!"... Well, gotta go. Time to send one of my people on a Starbuck's run. Great blog, Uncle Willie. The Shat Posted by: william f***ing shatner at January 23, 2002 09:44 AMhot soup girl said: >> i was actually refering to the (presumably bogus) www.cracklinoatbran.com URL you attached to you posting earlier today. Yeah. Bogus. I formally request from the head monkey that we no longer be required to enter a URL and email address for those who find thinking up fake ones tedious work. As for Lakerbago... yes. Messy. You no doubt saw it when it was still in development. Now that it's "done" it still is messy although the links do go places (one links to this site matter of fact), but basically it's just a back-up board should Mothership Lakerboard find herself spinning lifelessly in space. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 10:08 AMWil, you are SOO sweet to put that up on your website! Don't sweat it ... you are most assuredly, WORTH THE WAIT, and for sure, I got the autographed lunchbox at a real BARGIN if you ask me! ;-D I have to say, that you have REAL class, and like I've said before, you're parents did a great job of raising a fine young man like yourself! forever_the_optmist Posted by: forever_the_optmist at January 23, 2002 10:14 AMin a - Robert Matsushita -Da Vida, Hmm, ok I like "Robert Missippi" myself; Sounds more like an authentic Blues Player. Posted by: bluesman at January 23, 2002 10:18 AMI was wondering when you'd come sauntering back, Blue! Personally, I like my pool hustler name the best: "Slop" Matsushita. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 23, 2002 10:27 AMWhat a wonderful holiday! My good friend from college was just proposed to by her boyfriend who is jokingly nicknamed "The Reverend". They are the craziest couple in the world, and I wish them the best. I just thought it was nice to see that some people still celebrate MLK's life. A lot of people seem to brush it off as just another day off of work. It was great to read the speech again, and the engagement put the icing on the cake. Posted by: Jess W. at January 23, 2002 11:19 AMGah? Comments are back? And no one told me? Now I am languishing down in the high-70's where no one will notice my poor little inane comment. Sigh. Great to have everyone back, honoured to see Spudnuts has returned, looking forward to reading everyone's take on Life, Wil, and Everything Else again, blah, blah... (I hate posting at the end when it's all been said already). :-) Posted by: Mandy at January 23, 2002 01:05 PMI check the end of old threads... Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 01:45 PMBut I also fall asleep with a mouthful of See's cashew brittle and a porn DVD spinning in my iBook, so maybe this ain't the kind of neighborhood you want to visit without a can of lysol and a pair of brass knuckles. Endofthreadsville. The loneliest place on the Internet. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 01:48 PMThe irony is I sometimes do my best work in Endofthreadsville. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 23, 2002 01:56 PMFuck it, Rob. Maybe I'll just set up shop at this particular junction of Endofthreadsville. This will be my new pad. Some call it a crib. Spudnuts Whoo-hoo! Comments are BACK, baby!!! Yeah!!! Spuddy, nice to see YOU back, in a macabre way. Yeah, I missed you all, too. I have opened up my OWN product lines on Cafepress.com (THANK you, Wil, for hooking me up on that... you should be getting some extra cash your way, I put your store down as how I was referred to the site.), and what with Valentine's day coming up, I thought you might all wanna get your moms something cool... Wil, if you need any of it, I can get it to you for base price, if you'd tell me where to mail it to. The addy of my Valentine's day/Mother's Day line (which my mom and i co-designed!) is http://www.cafepress.com/wgmom Posted by: Cartoon Beagle at January 23, 2002 02:42 PMOk, so I've been visiting the site for a few months and started to feel kinda voyeuristic. You know reading up on Wil's life day after day and never introducing myself. I was just starting to think about sending my first comment when *WHAP* the moose wouldn't let me in. And then no comments. . . and NOW THEY'RE BACK! So here I am, introducing myself to Spudnuts and Rob Matsushita (I sympathize with the unpronoucable, unspellable name) and most importantly, to Wil. Wil, I know you've heard it all before, but I always thought the ST:TNG writers were doin' you dirty. They obviously didn't write up to your potential often. I'm not going to ramble on, I'll just start commenting more often. Uh oh, right? Anyhoo, take care all you hangin' here at the end of the thread. BTW, are there any microbiologists in the bunch? Looking for others of my kind. Posted by: Bronwyn at January 23, 2002 03:31 PMGood. **SOMEONE** realizes that I am not on a par with Rob or Spudnuts. It is, of course, utter blasphemy that Bronwyn mentioned even those two in the same breath as Mr. Wheaton (SIR!). Perhaps, in her youthful ignorance, she can be forgiven her transgression? Or must the loyal Monkey Armada be called out to exact righteous revenge? Posted by: JSc at January 23, 2002 04:17 PMNow all we need is Misty Mills and we've got a quarum. And I don't even know what that means. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 23, 2002 04:29 PMOh. Before I forget.... For those of you who remember Amanda, I'm sure she'd stop in and say hi if her computer were working. But it's not, so she won't--if that makes any sense. Then again, how rare is it that anything I say actually makes sense? Posted by: JSc at January 23, 2002 04:35 PMJSc, Wil is the pretty tropical fish and we are the snails that suck his waste and keep the tank clean. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 05:03 PMThis is Wil... http://www.kidsource.com/books/images/1558580093.l.gif Look at how shiny he is! Shiny! So shiny. Yes. Shiny. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 05:05 PMOr maybe we are MONKEYS that suck his waste. Ah well. No matter what manner of animal we be, there's still waste to be a-sucked and if we don't suck the waste on this site then who will suck the waste on this site? Who?! No. BESIDES Corey Feldman... Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 05:09 PMJSc, sorry 'bout that. And Rob, it's funny that you mention a quorum. . . I could tell you lots about how a quorum works. You'd probably be bored though, unless you're into bacteria. Posted by: Bronwyn at January 23, 2002 05:16 PMEwww! As I typed my last post, I heard a little licking sound at my elbow. (Now, had I turned to find a gorgeous man there, it would have been perfectly nice - weird, but nice) My cat was drinking from my glass! I've seen what she does with that mouth of hers - I hope that's the first time she's done that this evening. well, here i am in endofthreadsville. kinda nice, actually, as long as you don't mind the constant siren wailing in the background, and having to step over all the dead zombies slumped against the wall. i'm trying not to breathe in any of that gas they emit as they disintegrate. it's kinda gross, i have to tell you. smells like curdled milk. or durien. anyhow. spudnuts. i'm disappointed to hear that the lakerbago site was unfinished, since i thought it a fine example of conceptual art. almost as good as yoko ono's apple.

You'd probably be bored though, unless you're into bacteria. Quorum was also the name of a cologne I got for my dad back in the 70's because my mom said she liked how it smelled. They're divorced, and he's remarried, and "Quorum" was taken off the market for reasons unknown, so my work there is done. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 23, 2002 07:20 PMListen. About the tank cleaning thing... Monkeys, snails, whatever. I figure as long as each one of us does their fair share of rock sucking, we can keep this tank clean. And a clean tank means the prittiest fish in the ocean REMAINS the prittiest fish in the ocean. I'm thinking one handful apiece. If each person here sucks ONE handful of rocks each day then this tank will be clean. And people like Rob and JSc and myself won't have to stay late each day and suck EXTRA rocks just to keep things up to date. Fulfill your quota! I mean... Who is the prittiest fish in the ocean? Wil Wheaton is the prittiest fish in the ocean. And the prittiest fish in the ocean deserves to have his rocks sucked until they sparkle! Am I right?! Wait. That didn't come out the way I intended... Fuck it. You KNOW what I'm trying to say. Do your part. One handful a day is all I ask. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 23, 2002 07:46 PMhaha, you people are funny! And yes, I'm a day behind! I didn't notice the comment thing yesterday... :P As for Rob & Bill, I feel for you on the name pronunciation thing. Some people just can't figure out how to pronounce Patalano... I just say "Umm... Americanize it & sound it out, you dork!" PAT-A-LA-NO... if you're Italian, it's POT-UH-LAWN-OH! :) From me... a really odd person, I'm thinking. P.S. Hey Wil, I like this comment thing... it's really nifty cool. Oh, umm... and what does WONKY mean? Posted by: Laurie at January 23, 2002 10:00 PMSince shat jr. is such a big star now he should be able to afford a good filter, I bought an Ehiem for my 20 gallon about 10 years ago and it works well. EOT (end of thread) ME (middle Earth) and since were on the subject, I saw LOTR last night, we went to the last showing and the EOM (end of Movie) was after midnight. They had it on three screens and we were the only ones there. IF you Want to go to Heaven when you D-I-E as far as the thread id rather be at the bottom than the T-O-P Posted by: bluesman at January 24, 2002 12:54 AMI must admit the last name thing does come in handy when a telemarketing call comes through... TELEMARKETER: Is this Mr. Ma...Mash...Ma...I'm sorry, I'm going to mispronounce your name... Me: No, you're not. CLICK. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 04:47 AMHa! Yes! "Hello, May I speak with Mrs. Brow. . Broo... Bronso..." "Who are you?" "Are you Mrs. Broow..." "Identify yourself so I can tell you to stop calling me." "Well, I need to speak to. . ." Continue this in your imagination for about 2 minutes. Then top it off with my indignant, "Don't you know basic phone courtesy? Identify yourself!" *CLICK* *sigh* Posted by: Bronwyn at January 24, 2002 04:58 AMThis one actually happened to me. "Could I speak to an Elisabeth McNeely, please?" (This is my wife's maiden name, but I'm not telling THIS guy that.) Who is this? "Could I speak to Ms. McNeely, please?" Who is this? "I need to speak to Ms. McNeely." What's this about? "Can you get Ms. McNeely, please?" You wanna tell me why you're calling? "...um...This is a private matter that Elizabeth McNeely has with us, and we shouldn't discuss it with you." Really? Well, this is her husband. I think you can discuss it with me. "No, she told us not to tell you." (I hear suppresed giggling.) Who IS this? "Dick, just get Ms. McNeely." (Long pause.) I want you to say that again. CLICK. So I figure SOMEBODY just quit their job. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 07:32 AMOne Hundredth post! I Rule. (Future "I'm 100!" posts will be deleted.) Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 07:37 AMThis will teach me not to read wwdn daily, won't it? Wil, since this is your site, my first comment is to you: best of luck on your audition. Oh, and I couldn't have nominated you for a bloggie if Roughy hadn't mentioned it to me. Rob! Bluesman! Jsc! (I remember Amanda, give her my best...has she thrown over her bf for you? ;) Turtles!!! (Such a polite individual!) Donna (UK)! Jennifer (TX)! Mandy! Cartoon Beagle! Fred Fowler! Dai Vernon! Jun (happy belated birthday, btw)! So nice to see old friends. Of Spudnuts I must not type. Posted by: Shell at January 24, 2002 09:18 AMOK... I'm going to make a mini complaint... I HATE having to scroll all the way to the bottom to post a comment. Can't you put a link @ the top or something? Now, onto the subject of tele-f***ing-marketers, I HATE when they call & won't tell me what company they're calling for. They ask for someone & I say "who may I ask is calling?" And they give me their name! I'm like "Who are you calling with?" And I hear, "uhh... well, I need to speak to Mr. Patalano." And then I get pissy... "Listen bitch, you ain't talkin' to no one until you tell me what f***ing company you're with. And until you're ready to tell me, I'm not talking to you!" *click* OK, so that hasn't really happened but damn, I really would LOVE to say that! Laurie So shiny. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 12:35 PMActually. It's a playing card wrapped in tinfoil, but I'm pretending it's a scale from the "prittiest fish in the ocean" (Copyright 2002. Spudnuts. All rights reserved)... Wil Wheaton, the Rainbow Fish. I think I'll sell it on eBay. "Shiny scale: NM/M from 'prittiest fish in the ocean'" Shiny. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 02:41 PMWil... ok i will not kiss your ass ( I will however take a handful) and repeat what has often been said before i'll presume, by saying your site is really well done.. and actually kept my attention even to the endofthreadsville with your horde of admirers. I followed the trail from stileproject.com and was pleasantly surprised to find that this was some quality work. BUT DOES NO ONE care for CAKE?? If anyone got to see that live webcast.. please comment. I will be stabbing shadows until. Love from a little canadian!! Spudnuts said: I think I'll sell it on eBay. Do I want to ask what you'll be doing in the poloroid that proves its authenticity? Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 08:57 PMHey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Why am I not able to comment on the Wesley vs. Greedo thing? Imo go all the way over to Fark and register an account? No. I don't fucking think so. They can come HERE. The mountain comes to Spudnuts, not the other way around. And who would win? Green Lantern. Because he has a lantern. Shit. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:05 PMHe's got a LANTERN! You didn't hear me the first time?! Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:06 PMHe's got a LANTERN! And a foil-covered playing card from Wil Wheaton! Christ. Why is the world so complicated?! Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:08 PMYou know what I like? Boobs. I mean ALOT alot. HE'S GOT A LANTERN! Is this thing on...? Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:11 PMThank you. I'll be making appearances at Lakerboard and Wil Wheaton Dot Net. Tip your server. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:12 PMCan I go off in a totally different direction? I can? Cool... OK... so it's not totally different, Wil has mentioned it here before. The Troll in LotR looks very familiar! I saw LotR tonight... such an awesome movie! I need to read the book! Laurie You know who my favorite super hero is? Matter Eater Lad. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 09:13 PMDoes she have a lantern, though? Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 09:19 PMShe can communicate with parking valets using naught but the awe-inspiring power of her mind. Plus, she's read up a little on feng shui. Bruce Dern had a lantern. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:28 PMAnd that's why Hitchcock called him the Golden Calf. That, and he's cloven. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 24, 2002 09:33 PMSo I finally read that other thread... The CSS one. So THAT'S why no comments on the Greedo fight thing. Okay. Fuck it. No comments? I'm outta here. Posted by: Spudnuts at January 24, 2002 09:48 PMAt least I got a couple of comments in and met the gang before all adolescent hell broke loose. It's a shame. A damn shame. G'bye for now, Wil. Hope you open up the comment shop again soon. *sob* buh-bye Posted by: Bronwyn at January 25, 2002 05:29 AMOh, great, now we've crushed SPUDNUTS' spirit! If you all weren't figments of my imagination, I'd be really upset right now. Posted by: Rob Matsushita at January 25, 2002 08:40 AMHey i don't get sum of ur comments. bloggies, css, and wonkeys confuse me. lol. Posted by: Melbalinious at January 25, 2002 04:17 PMi cant think of more than a few bands that are less deserving of a record deal than cake. Posted by: phil at January 26, 2002 02:01 PMPoor Phil. Cake is awesome, and I am sad that you disagree. Oh well. To each her/his own. On Cake related items, they only played their first show in Vancouver last year and were apparently shocked that they had a fan base here. Silly band! So they will be returning to do more shows, yay! I'm pretty sure they have a lantern too. :-) Posted by: Mandy at January 26, 2002 02:46 PMi have the best damn seat in the house and not one of you innsolent fucks is ever going to take it away. House Knocker on the interstate of Negation. BY THE WAY: God hates all of you, Satan too!!!
