South Park Season 13
by 3Deviant on Apr.29, 2009, under Television

the South Park boys in Somalia
Well the first half of season 13 of South Park is over. Bummer. On the plus side, this season was filled with hilarity and ridiculousness. S13E01 - the Ring featured a shit talking basically psychotic Mickey Mouse and pretty well nailed Disney to the wall on their whole Jonas Brothers thing. Definitely a candidate for the best episode of the season so far. Of course there’s also the fishsticks episode. Poor old genius, voice of a generation, lyrical wordsmith Kanye West… the gay fish! Seriously where do these guys come up with this stuff? Definitely check out the episode, if you haven’t seen it already. You can download the long version of the Gay Fish Song here. It has to be the best South Park song so far. At least since back in the days of Chef.
There’s a real cliff hanger in this season. Who the hell is the coon? Its been driving me crazy since the episode aired. Any insights into who the coon is would be much appreciated!
South Park has always been all over current events, and this season has been no exception. Episode 3, Margaritaville, is about our failing economy, and has a hilarious intro at the bank. Randy is trying to teach Stan about saving money, but the banks just invest his $100 and lose it all. Then they kick him out of the bank! Bahaha! The rest of the episode was alright, but the intro is definitely the best. And its GONE!!
They really nailed current events with the last episode of the first half of season 13, Fatbeard. It was what, a few weeks ago that Somalian pirates made a big splash in the news taking over an American ship? South Park was all over it, and the boys were off to Somalia in search of a pirates life of plunder on the high seas. As per usual, they are completely oblivious to the extremely perilous situation they find themselves in, and hilarity ensues.
Eat, pray, queef is hilarious and pretty effin gross. There is definitely a line between farts and queefs that should not be crossed…. EVER!
All in all I was very pleased with the first half of South Park’s Season 13. I guess we’ll just have to wait until the fall to see how they wrap it up… and if we ever find out who the freaking coon is!?
Keep it up Matt and Trey

Blogging here I come
by 3Deviant on Apr.17, 2009, under Personal
Get ready internet world, another pointless blog is being fired up today! Hold on tight, this is gonna be a wild ride….
Seriously though, I spend way too much time inside my own head. Hopefully this blog will give me some place to spill all of the ingenius stupidity I come up with on a daily basis while helping me to retain some sense of sanity. I’m really not too sure what’ll end up in this blog over time, but you can rest assured it’ll be fairly random, occaisionally intelligent, and often obscure or ridiculous. There will be some posts involving 3D art, and computer graphics, as well as general computer and tech stuff. I guess I’m a geek, but that’s just my professional life. There’ll be other crap too, probably about stuff I do, like, hate etc. Oh and some opinions. I have strong opinions abouts lots of stuff. They’ll probably offend plenty of religious fanatics, global warming freaks, and other stupid people too. I guess thats reason why I’m starting this blog. Stick around and you’ll see what I mean.
I suppose my first post’ll be a bit about myself, but since I have a broken hand and I hate typing with one hand, I’m gonna save it for a bit.
