Run, runaway

Oh, hell yes!!! Made all the sweeter in that Trent Reznor probably has no idea a nine inch nails song’s used throughout this trailer …

H/T — Shane Covey, one bad-ass guitarist (and cool guy)

Now back to those fun-time motivational posters ...

Fun-time (though NSFW) applicable video here.

Tuesday Open Thread/Happy Birthday (Late) Blackhawk!

We missed blackhawk’s birthday yesterday due to his own failure to notify us (so it’s not Wankette’s fault!) nevertheless we like the newly minted lawyer and want to wish you a happy birthday. We will take up a collection and get you this weapon for the coming Zombie Apocalypse.

Belated happy birthday to Bruce

P.S. GOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!! With a finish even Rufus, with his professed love of last-minute clutch performances, would apparently love, on to round two …

Radicals and the zombie periphery

Daniel Drezner, highly acclaimed international relations expert, political scientist and blogger for the erudite Foreign Policy website is working on a new book.

There are many sources of fear in world politics — terrorist attacks, natural disasters, climate change, financial panic, nuclear proliferation, ethnic conflict, and so forth. Surveying the cultural zeitgeist, however, [...]

Q.U.I.T.: Indeed

Ladies, gentlemen, and Rufus… I bring you Queers for Palestine.

I shit you not.

That’s not just gay. It’s retarded.

Krazy Canadians

Canadian feminist Susan Cole is proud of her country:

“We don’t have a First Amendment, we don’t have a religion of free speech. Students sign off on all kinds of agreements as to how they’ll behave on campus, in order to respect diversity, equity, all of the values that Canadians really care about. Those are the [...]

The College Widow Strikes Again!!!!

Most definitely getting bumper-sticker production a’rockin’ on this once I get home tonight, too.

As heard on Radio Free Threedonia

Bumper sticker coming soon (with less sloppy pixel issues). Podcast of the entire show coming even sooner…

Zombie Hectoring

Today’s movie goers are accustomed to getting lectured at the cinemaplex.

Narrative films (“Lions for Lambs”) and documentaries alike (“Food, Inc.,” “Capitalism: A Love Story”) jam their perspectives down the viewers’ throats.

But horror movies are often far more effective vehicles for sending socially aware messages.And genre fans don’t seem to mind.

Zombie king George A. Romero may [...]

Spooky, Redux

With heavy metal madman Rob Zombie, what you see is what you get: balls-to-the-wall, devilishly and delightful spookshow-inspired mayhem. It’d be nice if his mastery of the 45-60 minute album medium translated to the feature length film arena (and damned if he doesn’t try — too hard or too little, I can’t quite tell), but [...]

Eli’s comin’

I’ll leave the movie reviews to those far better than I — lookin’ at you, JFNs, Totos, K. Smiths and Noltes of the world. All I know is I was blown away by The Book of Eli this morning, did not want it to end. Nowhere near as offensive to non-Christians and/or godless pagans atheists [...]

How The Mighty Have Fallen

“The System Worked”

Figure out the connection and Floyd will send you a cookie

Insofar as it was able to alert everyone – INSTANTLY! – about how badly it had failed, that’s how it worked. That seems to sum up the views of DHS Secretary Janet “Don’t Call Me Reno” Napolitano. Yesterday, she famously said that “the [...]

Proud Prof

I had canceled my afternoon class yesterday because I was taking some students on a tour of a state prison, but before I could post the sign on the door a student approached me and asked if she could have an excused absence. “Why?” I asked. “My friends and I are going to [...]

Professor Firefly Solves the Climate Change Debate

“Whatever it is, I’m against it!”

Alright students, listen up.  I’ve had all I can take of this Climate Change/Global Warming/Ice Caps receding/El Nina/El Nino/CO2 Good/CO2 Bad/Carbon Footprint/Carbon Offset/Cap and Trade/Crap and Trade nonsense.  In the words of Popeye the Sailor, “that’s all I can stands, I can’t stands no more!”

I know this is [...]

For Blackhawk: “They’re gonna need more zombies …”

From the Inspirational Poster Series

Designed and Produced in Threedonia – For Threedonians

Now that the results of the off-year elections are in, fair-weather conservatives are coming out of the woodwork, and while I welcome their vote, they are still kind of – what’s the word? – annoying.

That’s the word.

Rubbing Salt In the Wound

A good day for this clip – not that there’s ever a bad day for it, of course.

Happy Halloween From the Trzuprs

Havin another bad hair day…

Enough With The “Fascism” Already

(any resemblance to Stephanie is strictly coincidental)

The army of fascist gnomes, created – according to the “artist” – in order to protest fascism is the kind of thing that really grinds my gears. Can we please stop protesting fascism already and move on to the next pointless protest? I mean, protesting fascism in [...]

Nobel Piece

Apparently affirmative action is a truly international phenomenon. President Barack Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. No. Really.

Hollywood’s rapist horror comedy

The new fun-loving horror show was supposed to be Zombieland, the hilarious looking film that is sure to send Blackhawk scurrying for his gun safe and dispatch the rest of us to the cinema. After all, it’s hard to hate a zombie flick with a little Van Halen and Johnny Cash in the promotion.

But the [...]

Finally, A Useful Study At a Major University!

Central Florida News reports that the University of Florida published a plan on how to respond to a zombie attack. The full story is here. This gives you the gist:

The author or authors of the report discussed the science of “zombie behavior spectrum disorder,” or ZBSD, and even encouraged university administrators to create a “UF Zombie Response [...]

New Age Curriculum

And all that’s missing are the cute brown uniforms. And yeah, yeah – this is antecdotal stuff from one school, but you just know that there are a whole lot people out there who can’t wait to teach their kids the lyrics.

From Fox News:

The Serpent and the Rainbow

Apropos our buried alive conversation…. I couldn’t find just the scene, but this Bravo clip has part of it…. Wes Craven’s very underappreciated voodoo zombie flick….

Don’t let them bury me! I’m not dead!

The scene where he’s looking through the cross in the coffin and dirt falls in on him…. this is a creepy flick.

How ’bout you, Fauna, y’wanna?

It’s no Chris Rock Chia afro, but still should go great with the adoring fan’s $20 collector plate…

A message to Soros and the “deathers” from Sir Rodney

A follow up to Mike’s excellent post. As far as myself going “gently into that good night,” I pictured it a couple ways – either finger pulled back on the trigger or petal mashed to the floor. Cagney had it right in White Heat.

That said, the whole joke of a “dignified” death is a contemporary [...]

Sunday Open Thread

The Show Must Go On!

Maybe Michael Jackson will keep his dates at O2 Centre in London after all?
Wasn’t he already plastinated?

Get blackhawk in the restraints, STAT

Christian Toto has the latest on “Dead Snow,” featuring a cast of Zombie Nazis.

My personal favorite zombie stopper. Comes personally recommended, especially with the 40-round clip.

You can fire it while listening to this.

Jake Tapper is an Atrocious Journalist

Hey Jake, want some kool-aid to wash down that cake?

O.K., go here and read the article.

Let’s look at what’s going on here.  Jake Tapper, a man who collects a paycheck from ABC as a reporter/journalist writes, “A bizarre and inaccurate meme is circulating among conservatives that President Obama referred to the [...]

Cheap Zombies

Christian Toto — movie critic, Threedonia commenter, blogger, and general raconteur (did we mention that some of us talked to him? You don’t believe us? Well it just so happens we have a … oh nevermind) has a post on a new zombie flick named Colinmade for $70. No word on whether [...]

Ein. Zwein. Die!

This clip is self-explanatory.

When is that return to mature governance supposed to start?

President Obama has taken to enraging allies while giving mannerly best effort to enemies – such as the case with his meeeting Hugo Chavez and the rest of his worldwide apology tour. Homeland Security is getting into the act. I know, if you voted for Obama, you probably don’t remember that little event called “Sept. [...]

Fire up the death metal

Even more of a reason to hate hippies that aren’t in Zachariah and the Lobos Riders.

I know the Lord (and Waylon) teach me not to hate or waste said emotion, but hippies bring out the worst in my South Park namesake and me — ugh!!!

Mood Music

Here’s an interesting experiment…

And here’s a recut Titanic trailer making it look almost like a zombie flick:

Stuhldreher, Miller, Crowley, Layden and Washington?

I just stumbled on to this today.  I have never heard of it, or any reference to it prior.  Anyone have any knowledge of the subject?  Is the source verifiable?  Was it actaully published in the precursor to Stars and Stripes, The National Tribune?  It sounds a little hokey to me, but I’ve found quite [...]

ZOMBIES!!!

Might have noticed this video sooner if more than Palladia actually showed videos, too. If Metallica’s not your thing and you’re here solely for the as-advertised zombies, cut straight to 4:45. If ya dig the Metallikatz, metal up your ass on one of my faves off Death Magnetic, plus a cool video chock full of [...]

Ain’t No Dollaback Girl

A U.N. panel will recommend, next week, that the world scrap the dollar as its reserve currency. That doesn’t sound good. Family? Check. Gold? Check. Guns? Check. Water? Check. Bunker? Damn!

La Resistance!

Great thoughts occur in the shower and a great one – although a rather obvious point – occurred to me this very morning. To wit: there is a revolution in progress and we few, we happy few, are a part of it.

Stay Tuned for Brainsfield Park

Coming soon to a bookstore near you! Look out for Darcy!

Update: Totten talks Hitchens brawl

Noted war blogger Michael Totten is back, and gives his full account of the battle between essayist, contrarian Christopher Hitchens and Nazi Syrian supporters in Beiruit.

Hitchens sums up his foes nicely.

“It is,” I said, “in a way. They have a state behind them. They aren’t just a street gang, they’re a street gang with a [...]
