This site randomly generates scientific essays...
A few titles I got:
* The materialist paradigm of narrative in the works of Madonna
* The Genre of Society: Subconstructive discourse, capitalism and structuralist posttextual theory
It's great. XD
Yet, the paper includes references and seem argumented enough (it features enough gibberish to make you think someone knows what it's about)...
I'm told some of them were accepted as real ones...
I love this! :)

Don't shoot the puppy!!!
Games that have the simplest gameplay are often the most compelling.
This is no exception:

Road kill carpet...
Sick or genius?
http://oooms.nl/road-kill-carpet/#more-48
As they say: "It’s a warm, soft, cuddly carpet that attracts you to take a nap on it. But at the same time it's a repulsive image of a car-flattened, bloody fox."
Nuff said... (^_^;
Thanks to Nawah for the link!

Une pensee...
Faut esperer que le Cremant ne change jamais de nom, parce que du coup ca deviendrait de l'ex-Cremant et qui acheterait une telle chose?

Footez-nous la paix...
Ce matin sur RTL, le debat c'etait: "ils ont sifflez la Marseillaise hier soir, ca vous fait quoi?". Encore une grande idee. Genre on veut pas jeter d'huile sur le feu.
Donc evidemment y a des bons "patriotes" qui ont exprime leur indignation, qu'ils se sont sentis insultes au plus profond d'eux-memes, etc etc blah blah blah.
Heureusement y en a quelques-uns qui ont dit aussi que c'etait ridicule, que ca s'est toujours fait, que c'est pas malin certes (mais bon on parle de supporters de foot quand meme la) et que bon c'est pas non plus la peine d'en faire un plat (d'ailleurs les autres pays font pas tant de manieres). Ca fait du bien d'entendre un peu de bon sens. En meme temps, bizarrement, les 2 auditeurs en question n'etaient pas francais (1 allemand, 1 tunisien)... Je sais pas trop quelle image ca donne...
Un autre truc auquel je pense c'est que bon on a gueule sur les musulmans qui se sont insurges contre les caricatures de Mahomet. Et la on fait exactement pareil !!
Mahomet, c'est quand meme un symbole de leur religion et de leur culture. On peut comprendre que ca soit important pour eux. Donc la dessus on leur demande de laisser couler, mais faut pas toucher aux hymnes? C'est pas un peu ridicule?
Du coup je sais meme pas quel resultat ca a fait, ce match.

Hilton for president!
I cannot believe I'm saying that and it makes me almost feel dirty, but Paris Hilton IS genuinely funny:
Th next is even better, thanks to the outstanding support cast:
But that doesn't mean I'm going to start watching the Simple Life...
I originally found this at the Register: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/09/paris_for_president/
That's very good...
See more Paris Hilton videos at Funny or Die

With a concept like that, nothing can go wrong... :)

Death Race
Well here is a movie that doesn't pretend to be more than it thinks it is, but not less as well!
It doesn't fall into the category of those remakes that get watered down so kiddies can go and see it.
Sure, the story itself is a cliche. But you get what you're here to see: crashes, explosion and mindless violence (and cute girls). No nonsense.
It's well shot, spectacular, brutal.
And it does feel good. :)
It's also great to see that Paul WS Anderson nailed this one (after missing the mark on Resident Evil and Alien vs Predator...).
Certainly not the film of the year, but still a good ride...

Pineapple Express.
It was a long time since I got to see a "real" comedy.
I have never seen any of the "Apatow gang" stuff so I was walking into unknown territory. Anyway I had a very good time.
It's strange how this made me feel like it was using a formula that used to be somewhat over-used at some point, but that I hadn't seen in effect for a long time. Only I can't really remember any movie in that category... (^_^; It's the kind of "action-comedy" that finishes in a good old bloodbath. A bit like Lock Stock or Snatch but the American way.
Anyway as with any formula, if it's well done, it works. And it's well done here.
It's well funny and the action is actually plenty and quite good! Yet it keeps a sort of wacky / despaired feel. So it manages not to break from the comedy part and also not turn the main characters into silly action heroes. Well in a sense they do turn out that way, but it fits, in a ridiculous way (Hot Fuzz did that somehow a few years back).
It's also a "pot movie" and it makes good use of the fact that the characters are high all the time... :) In a sense it accounts for the action parts...
The actors are top notch, with special mention to James Franco, but Seth Rogen does shine as well. They manage to compose very likeable character and work very well as a duo which is key in such a movie.
So it's a movie that might get forgotten when building you "best movies of all times" list, but that is still a very good quality laugh and well worth watching...
