I think most of you guys read the same sites I do, and so you’ve probably seen this already, but:

This is probably the best sushi you can get in Grand Rapids, possibly in all of West Michigan. BUT — don’t go here if you’re hungry. Go stuff your face at an OCB instead. You can (read: I did) easily drop $20 for lunch because the first thing you order ends up just not being enough.

The photo above is my first lunch, $7.95. Avacodo rolls at the top, and on the bottom (from left) egg, salmon, tuna, yellow tail (I think?) and snapper. This lasted about five minutes and I was still hungry. I asked for the sushi menu and ordered a scallop roll and squid sushi. One Andrew Jackson later I left, still feeling a mite peckish.

The quality, however, was outstanding. Tops for me were the scallop rolls, which offered a texture and taste so divine I thought I was eating dessert. Except with raw shellfish.

The only real drawback was not having a nice glass of freezing cold sake or an Asahi tallboy to go with the meal. The job doesn’t necessarily like one coming back from lunch with al-kee-haul on one’s breath.

At some point in the future, I may learn to write original content instead of just linking to things I found via I Watch Stuff!. Until such a day comes, I’ll just link to the original story conference where Indiana Jones was invented.

I have not dived in to the 125-page PDF, but I bet it’s fascinating.

Through the magic of programming languages, I can tell you exactly how addicted to films I am: 64.4%. Translation: I have seen 64.4% of the movies on the IMDB Top 250 list, which sounds about right as I never could make it through “The Seven Samurai”. Maybe next time!

Anyway, compare your lives to mine, then kill yourselves. Do it now!

Nazi on the moon.

Speaking of non-historical Nazi pictures, why not Nazi Zombies?

If only Tom Cruise had been able to kill Hitler, we wouldn’t be facing these dual threats.

Oh, and yes, Star Trek has already covered the Nazis), in case you were curious.

1. It has Brad Pitt in it
2. It has a really stupid name
3. It has Brad Pitt doing a stupid fake southern accent in it
4. I have to “click to download” something to watch the trailer (which i don’t want to watch)
5. The old/young version of Brad Pitt is incredibly creepy and unnerving, in a bad way
6. It appears to contain one of the stupid/boring romantic encounters that Changed Everything, that I hate so much
7. A movie with Brad Pitt in it opening on Christmas is liable to ruin Christmas
8. Tagline: “Life isn’t measured in minutes, but in moments.” I literally gagged
9. A movie with Brad Pitt in it that also contains Cate Blanchett is liable to ruin Cate Blanchett
10. It just looks stupid and ridiculous and soppy and pointless and represents everything inane about American popular culture and it makes me sad just thinking about it

You don’t want to make me sad at Christmas time, do you?

So there’s this new show called Fringe! At least I guess it’s new. Since I might as well be living under a rock, I’m not really sure. But it still seems to be in its first season, at least.
I am watching the episode “In Which We Meet Mr. Jones,” without having previously watched all the […]

A brand freaking new trailer. Love the use of both Philip Glass and Muse on the soundtrack.

How excited are you about this? I’ll answer that for you: very.

Via here and (of course) here.

So I watched this and for the first half I was like “yeah, this is pretty amusing.” Then the pipe wrench fight happened.

As it turns out, I didn’t remember much from the original video, which made the re-interpretation of it all the better.
