Geeze, you try to follow the ToS and you still get bit!

Is there any way to undisable a Facebook account? I heard there was a bug going around that was accidentally disabling accounts.

I personally hate Facebook but I keep much business and family with it.

Racebending.com X-Mas List [13 Dec 2009|10:02pm]

WHEN I GET MY POSTING PRIVLAGES BACK ON THE [info]racebending LIVEJOURNAL I WILL REPOST THIS!

I was thinking about with all the amazing stuff going on with Racebending, that you can get creative with gits to buy yourself or gifts you can buy other people that I feel would support Racebending. Here they are.

The most important one is to buy our T-Shirt. All the money goes to future Racebending protests, promotions and MANAA to lobby against Paramount!

--Films--



So what are you going to do with all that money that your not going to give to Paramount? Well, why not spend it on these films? Films that are either about the identity issues of Asian Americans/Indigenous People or about films that were made by Americans that celebrate Asian American identity and culture. P.S. Go see Red Cliff! It's like the Chinese 300 but a billion times better!

Five Questions from [info]rob_t_firefly and a prediction from George Carlin [11 Dec 2009|02:42pm]

sidepocket_pro
[ mood | bored ]

Here’s a thing that’s been going around LiveJournal.

Instructions:
Leave me a comment saying “Resistance is Futile.”

• I’ll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions

I don’t really dig telling other people what to blog, so if you like please feel free to just post your answers in the comments to this post instead.

So since I asked for Rob to ask me some questions, here they are and my answers:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Do any photos of you without facial hair exist?

Great question actually.

Yes, way back in the day I did not have facial hair. It started growing in when I was in the Seventh Grade, so I was the first kid to ever have facial hair and the ONLY guy for a long time. So if you look at some old school photos of me from middle school-high school then you can see me without facial hair or with way less hair than I have now.

Now, about modern day, no, there are no pictures. However, I do have a plan by next summer that at least just once I'm going to shave it off just to see what I look like with out it. That and I can see if I can fool people and to see if it improves my luck with the ladies/job situation.

2. What was your favorite cartoon as a kid?

Lots, some I can't even remember but here are some that I do...

Ren & Stimpy, Super Dave, Old School Rugrats, Dexter's Laboritory, Old School Scooby Doo, The Adams Family, The Real Ghostbusters, Bobby's World, The Angry Beevers, Hay Arnold, Doug, Rocco's Modern Life...

I'm sure there are tons more but I have a bad memory. Oh! And even though they are not cartoons, Bill Nye The Science Guy and Beakman's World were amazing!

3. How did you discover NYC2600?

I knew about the 2600 Magazine ever since I got onto the internet as we began to know it today back in 1996. When I finally purchased my first 2600 magazine in Sophomore Year of High School, I saw the meetings in the back. I went to the website and I found the page and I found RTF's LiveJournal. Due to me failing behind and just general high school life, I did not go until a year after I graduated High School when I actually had free time.

Funny note, I remember being so nervous! Especially contacting RTF because in my mind he was GOD after reading all the PLA stuff over the years! I saw him at two meeting but did not talk to him, until when I started to send desktop wallpaper in after I realized how not much there was. He actually came up to me and went "HAY YOUR SIDEPOCKET, THE GUY WHO GIVES US WALLPAPER!"

I've loved the meetings and been friends with RTF ever since.

4. What’s the best thing about your neighborhood?

Not much, although it did retain the original reason we moved:

It's quite compared to the hustle and bustle of other towns.

Other than that it's shit.

5. How’d you fall in with the Yes Men?

Another funny story.

I found out about them when I was in High School, with the whole World Trade thing. Then they came out with a movie and I bought it on DVD and fell in love.

Soon when the Haliburton and Exxon-Reggie thing came along I donated money. My big break was the New York Times event where I helped move people around and handed out the hoax papers. I was interviewed for Reuters because of that and I met them in person when I dropped off the footage to Andy and Mike.

They ended up giving out their phone number during the event so some time later I called them when we had that whole NewMTA idea. It showed that I was serious. And then I accidentally met Andy again during a New School event where we realized that we both are people from the same school all these years and never even knew it.

I've been working with them ever since.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So yea, if anyone wants to do their own questions just message me below and I'll ask 'em!

Also, George Carlin was the man and I think it's very creepy on how accurate this is:



A retrospective post coming soon.

This is a serious question and I did not know if this was appropriate for the [info]racebending LiveJournal group...

Anyone see this film and think this?
