I starred in a sitcom with Wayne Knight (playing a fairly Newmanish character only less blatantly evil and more just straight stupid) where we were both mailmen.

His character had this thing going where everytime he felt miserable, or sick, he'd go down to a bar where all the army folks hung out and partied and try to screw as many servicewomen as possible in a single weekend. THis happened about once a month. One of the running gags of the show was that he he always came back with a different, albeit mild STD, like crabs or the clap or whatever.

So this time he comes back and he's all pale and horrified and the dialogue goes something like this:

"Well what the hell happened? You look worse than you did two days ago!" 
"I'm fucked, man! Fucked! All the good times are over!"
"What the fuck did you catch this time? Holy shit did you get AIDS?"
"Aww, no man, they have treatments and shit for AIDS now. AIDS I ain't worried about!
"So what then?"
*look of supreme horror on his face* "I'm gonna be a daddy!"

While freaking out, he tells me the story about screwing some woman in the infantry, who then came to him in the morning with a positive pregancy test.

So I speak up again:
"I thought you tried to avoid repeat visits!"
"What do you mean? I do! I never saw this girl before in my life!"
I stare at thim for a second and then: "Holy shit you're a real fucking retard, you know that?"
"I KNOWWWW! I KNOWWWW!"
"No you idiot, THINK!"
*he just looks confused*
"You dummy, how the hell could she get a positive test only the morning after you slept with her! Pregnancy tests don't work like that!"
*understanding dawns, and a big beatific idiot grin spreads across his face*
Me: "Either that's somebody else's kid or she's bullshitting you entirely!"
"I'm saved! Holy shit I'm saved!" He's frantically happy, I wake up.

Got my copy of Laszlo's Hammer and other stuff today. Haven't had a chance to read any of it yet, but there's Laszlo's Hammer, Act 3, a couple of issues of The Comics! and The Four Page Series essays from Steve Ditko.

Finally found a KS/IGG campaign to get into: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/dies-irae/x/4809814

Buying a whole stack of figures to repurpose for another game at a big discount over their regular store prices (usually 8.5 Euros, but most of the figures are 5 Euros for the IGG Campaign). These guys had a previous IGG campaign which they filed very quickly and efficiently. They also have all the figures sculpted (most of the figures on offer are already available) and already have an active store and established casting process/supply chain. So this is more just like preorders to build hype and fund production costs.

I also managed to get them to sell me one of their last copies an exclusive figure (a sweet pistol duellist, one of the best minis sculpts I've ever seen) from the last IGG campaign that's totally unavailable. :3

In an amazing display of a lack of both self-awareness and understanding of irony, the producers of the Atlas Shrugged films are turning to Kickstarter for help with the third film.

Death Note - Kira's Laugh (Original)

EDIT: apparently the third film is already fully funded and headed to production; this project is just for marketing purposes and to spite the "haters", as they call anyone who dared to criticize their other two terrible movies. As such, this is a clear violation of Kickstarter's TOS, which states that projects much actually, y'know, MAKE something. Feel free to report them!

Interesting premise. Of course, time will tell if it's a scam or not, but it's a good idea in any case.

It's time for the final push, and goddamn, why did they have to make that last stretch goal sound so cool.  Putting the garbage block concept from falling block games into a platformer is sort of brilliant.

Remember City of Heroes?  Well, after the shutdown, a fan-led effort to produce a spiritual successor got started up.  I've been tangentally involved in this, and following the production - there have been hiccups, but things seem to have settled into a stable structure and they're ready to move forward.  Got good people involved, and good minds at the helm!  I have no idea if this will work or not, but I really do hope it will.

Kickstarter just went live.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Automatic all-grain brewing machine . This is a little pricey as far as kickstarters go, but it is pretty damn amazing, and hey, you'll break even after about 1100 beers! The batch size is a little small, but the concept of a self-cleaning, just dump all the ingredients in and push button homebrew system is honestly incredible.

Today on Kickstarter Kombat: RPGs that are like other RPGs!

Citizens of Earth: Earthbound plus Suikoden. The demo is fun.

Cosmic Star Heroine made it; Citizens of Earth didn't.

More importantly, Costume Fairy Adventures is live. This is a comedic tabletop RPG about getting into trouble, being a fairy, and wearing costumes. It's designed for all ages and best for short, snacky scenarios. Quickstart rules are available.

Also, I'm writing one of the stretch goals, which is about as Phoenix Wright as a scenario can be without being Suteki na Kanashibari.

Awesome Music For Awful Movies: A Tribute by Mary Jo Pehl

Quote
I will be singing four or five imagined theme songs to such MST3K favorites as Mitchell, Space Mutiny, Eegah, and of course, Manos, The Hands of Fate.

The songs will be written by veteran Twin Cities musicians Michael Warren, Claudia Hankin, and Tony Balluff, and performed by yours truly in a variety of genres such as power pop, ballad, pop-country, and perhaps a duet even a very special guest singer (wink!).

Fingers crossed that it's Kevin Murphy.
