Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
Oh my the words will continue in the comments section at the LA Times post. The intelligent Quotient will vary, but the stupid ass to a moderately smart person who probably is on par with the 5th grade reading level that’s used in print. I think GR at times, is at 3rd grade, but who’s counting. Check out the LA Times blog of it. We’re getting a few emails here and there, nothing too much. I especially like the folks who try and dismiss the affects of Long Duk Dong without having any experience living through that. Sure, I’m fine now, and I don’t really give a shit, nor do I think about LDD at all anymore, but for a while, it was tormenting. You might think, what’s the big deal? But imagine if you did the same to an African American character, ala Gods Must Be Crazy?

The story of Donger surfaces once again. It's been decades, but even now it sort of affects us. It's nearly gone, and most people you ask, if they're young have no idea who he is and what the film is about. There's already two generations of teenager movies which have come and gone, but this one still hits below the belt. The weird thing is that John Hughes should get the finger, not just Gedde....
The story of Donger surfaces once again. It’s been decades, but even now it sort of affects us. It’s nearly gone, and most people you ask, if they’re young have no idea who he is and what the film is about. There’s already two generations of teenager movies which have come and gone, but this one still hits below the belt. The weird thing is that John Hughes should get the finger, not just Gedde. Thanks Alison MacAdam for helping us relive it one more time! The audio won’t be up until later today. I’ll add the link later. If you want to see the link. Then go here.

That's cousin Michelle with Sofia or is it Sophia with boxing gloves. You won't see babies here too often, but this one was funny. What's up with the boxing gloves? Also is she going to be called Sofie as a nickname?
baby coma - sleepy sleep - yes, I'm lame enough to have timed it with an intriguing image on the TV set. What does it mean?

That’s cousin Michelle with Sofia or is it Sophia with boxing gloves. You won’t see babies here too often, but this one was funny. What’s up with the boxing gloves? Also is she going to be called Sofie as a nickname? baby coma – sleepy sleep – yes, I’m lame enough to have timed it with an intriguing image on the TV set. What does it mean? food coma – sleepy sleep. That piece of stained glass is from way way back in my life. My mom got into stained glass, and it’s really expensive to get it custom made, so she found a hobbyist who did it on the side for fun. So she had him make a bunch of pieces and they look good to me. How did my mom know that whales would be so cool more than 20 years later? That’s Eugenia sitting in some yoga pose. I’ve seen the fighter Rickson Gracie do this move on the beach. That’s cousin Jon. He won a tennis tournament today. Kind of a piece of shit trophy for playing a bunch of matches in near 100 degree heat in the San Fernando Valley. Jon’s shirt is super loud, isn’t it? Why are some articles of clothing that’s tennis related so weird looking? I can’t see this as being the cool vintage re-release in 15 years. His hat isn’t that cool either. Jon’s the type of guy who just wouldn’t care that much, since he’s the guy with the trophy and the national ranking. If you give him some wood, he’ll build you a cabinet.
