My monitor is pimp

I don’t really have much to say about the hockey game that is polite. I’m pretty sure it’s the first time I’ve seen Roberto Luongo get pulled. I know I predicted the Ducks to win the series, but sheesh. Also, A) Selanne smashes Burrows to the ice, after the whistle, and Burrows gets a penalty [...]



Brief hockey thing

I’m going to bed, and I’ll probably have another, more proper post thing later, but I figured I should mention the second round of the playoffs before they, you know… start. I went 6-2 in the first round, which already puts me 50% ahead of where I was last year. So things are going well! [...]



Last Dance With Mary Jane

While I was at work, people (young people) kept wishing me a happy 4:20. Or 4-20 or 420 or four-twenty or whatever the fuck it is. Basically this combination of numbers that stands for pot for some reason I don’t care to Wiki. That day being the twentieth of the fourth month, yeah, okay, I [...]



Everybody Polkamon

Sorry there haven’t been many updates lately. I’ve been, uh… distracted. I really should do a comic, but I can’t think of anything to comic about at the moment.
Okay, so where do we begin? Let’s see what comes to mind…
- Lots has already been said on the shooting in Virginia, but one of the things [...]



If I PayPal Snoop Dogg two bucks, can I call him a filthy nigger?

From CNN.com…
Some defenders of rap music and hip-hop culture, such as the pioneering mogul Russell Simmons, deny any connection between Imus and hip-hop… “Comparing Don Imus’ language with hip-hop artists’ poetic expression is misguided and inaccurate and feeds into a mindset that can be a catalyst for unwarranted, rampant censorship,” Simmons said in a statement [...]



Doctor of what, I wonder

First, let’s eulogize Johnny Hart, creator of the newspaper comic BC, who died on Saturday. I guess I shouldn’t speak ill of the dead. Let me see if I can find something nice to say.
*ahem*
Thanks to BC sucking so very much, it was pulled out of my local paper’s comics section, and so a slot [...]



Nothing but hockey, read at your peril

Alright folks, the regular season is over, and it’s time to start up with Mat’s official Stanley Cup Playoff Predictions!
Last year, we recall, I was going 50/50 on my predictions right up to the end, at which point I got the last one right, causing me to end with an average of .533 if my [...]



You can go with this, or you can go with that

Or you can go with us!
Not many rants lately, not much to say. I could expose the tender details of my conversations with Kat, but I fear your opinion of me would drop if you heard me cursing at her for nailing me with a Bob-omb in Mario Kart DS. I mean seriously! We were [...]



Lucy Picture Show

Stupid thumping music. I’d like very much for my neighbors to go to a lake of fire and fry. I wouldn’t be too disappointed if they missed their July 4th appointment for me to see ‘em again, either.
I’ve recently gotten some updates on the BDK animation project, so I figured I’d share some information with [...]
