My spell checker has surpassed one thousand (1000) downloads from unique IP’s. w00t!!!

So, the other week Jason, Joel, and I were in Hickory to see "Star Wars: Episode III – It Sucks Sith". We were there like an hour and a half before the show started so we decided to go to Best Buy to just walk around. We left Best Buy a little while later – after laughing at some stupid girls who couldn’t figure out how to work the Karaoke machine that was on display – for Barnes & Noble.

Cut to Barnes & Noble. There are books of every kind on shelves throughout the store. People mingle in the Starbucks area of the store drinking various coffee beverages. The glorious fragrance of new books and coffee fills the air.

We’re walking around the store not doing much. Then we’re getting ready to head to the movie theater in a few minutes so Jason and I head back to make a trip to the urination station before we leave to see the crappy movie (this is after I’ve used the phrase "colostomy bag" in context). There were people in there already, and I’m waiting my turn when this guy who just finished peeing and washing his hands points at me and is like, "Hey I saw you guys in Media Play!" So I appropriately respond, "No you didn’t." Then he realizes he’s retarded and is like, "Oh yeah, I mean, uh, Best Buy!" "Riiiight….well we didn’t see you. Sorry. So why are you following us around?" says I. He’s like, "No, I’m not following you guys…." I’m like, "Yeah, alright buddy, whatever you say." He turns to leave, gets halfway out the door, turns around, and raises his finger as if to say something else, but apparently thinks better of it and says, "Never mind" instead. I guess we’ll never know what he really wanted to say.

So what I’m getting at is that you can never be too careful about where and when you go pee; someone could be following you around waiting for a good opportunity to jump, rape, loot, molest, heckle, shoot, rob, fondle, attack, lick, abduct, eviscerate, ambush, or beat you.

Sweet!! The guys over at Ajaxian Blog put up a link to my spell checker. I’ve had a good number of people downloading the code, which is super awesome. Thanks Ben and Dion!

You can play with the spell checker and download the source here.

Marissa: Excuse me, is this Sarcasm 101?

Mr. Bennett: No, it’s Lamaze class for men named Arthur.

Marissa: Oh, okay, sorry. [turns to exit]

Maybe now we’ll be able to get rid of all the people who don’t understand good humor.

Hold on a second, I’m trying to imagine you with a personality…

I think it was the best of the three prequels, however it wasn’t very good. So first I figured I’d give a short summary of the movie:

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. A long time ago, etc. War!, etc. Pan to star ship. Pretty cool CG and some pretty good sound. Crappy dialogue. Bad acting. Stupid camera wipe. Bad dialogue. Another stupid camera wipe. Different planet. Bad acting and horrid dialogue here too. Natalie’s hot. Bad dialogue. Yet another camera wipe. Bad dialogue, yada yada yada. Three thousand camera wipes later, roll credits. Bad dialogue.

• R is for the really really awful dialogue.
• E is for everyone was told to do the worst acting they possibly could.
• V is for the veritable disaster the script was.
• E is for how entirely too long the movie would have seemed if I had seen it at midnight.
• N is for no need to ever see this movie again.
• G is for God forbid George Lucas make any more movies.
• E is for Emperor Palpatine’s hilarious moaning when Mace Windu reflected his lightning back at him.
• O is for overrated!
• F is for freakin’ retarded when they were just waving their light sabers in front of each other.
• T is for thank God there was no pod racing or significant talking by Jar Jar Binks.
• H is for how silly the name “Order sixty-six” was. Was that really the best you could do George?
• E is for the endless number of cheesy camera wipes.
• S is for sucky the dialogue was.
• I is for the incredibly lame way that the name “Darth Vader” was chosen.
• T is for tell George Lucas he’s an idiot.
• H is for Hallelujah there won’t be any more Star Wars movies!

This is the United States of America. We drive on the right side of the road and the same principle should apply to hallways as well. I hate when you’re walking down the hall along the right wall (where you’re supposed to be walking), and then around the corner comes someone walking with their left shoulder up against the wall coming straight at you. If they would be on the right side of the hallway, like they’re supposed to be, you wouldn’t have to almost run head-on into someone walking down the hall. Maybe this is what the hall monitors were really for in school. To watch out for accidents involving people who walk on the wrong side of the hallway and report them to the proper authorities. Or maybe the “you can only walk one direction down the hallway” solution they tried to implement in middle school was actually a decent idea? Seriously though, move over to the right side.

There are a lot of idiots out there and luckily (unluckily?) we get to hear about all of them. I have to wonder how this guy arrived at the conclusion that a church would be the most convenient place for him to watch pr0n. “Library? Na, too many people. What about Kinko’s? Oh that’s right, you have to pay there. I know! A church! I’ll just break in after hours and no one will ever notice. It’ll be great.”

Holy Crap!

Note to self: Never move to Denver. Why you ask? Buffalo and semiautomatic rifles. Hilarious.

So, the spell checker I wrote is finally finished. It took longer than expected since I decided to allow HTML tags. Anyway, you can spell check your comments now, and that’s freakin’ awesome. It might be a little slow at times because I don’t the bandwidth of Google. If you have any problems with it, let me know.

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith opens tonight at midnight. I hope it’ll live up to the reviews it’s gotten so far. If it doesn’t, then I think George Lucas should to be publicly executed to ensure that the world never has to go through another horrible experience like that.

Today on the news I saw a thing about this high school kid in Chapel Hill that killed both of his parents, went to his prom, then had a party at his house afterwords. They didn’t find his parents until two weeks later. That’s just nuts.

CNN has a little article about how Merriam-Webster asking people to submit words that aren’t in the dictionary that should be. I wonder if cromulent, meecrob, and awesomenocity are on the list…

The other day I saw a chicken standing on the median side of I-40. It was just standing there pecking at the grass. I was led to ponder the chicken and it’s subsequent predicament. Why did the chicken cross the road? What did it propose to find when it arrived on said “other side” of road? Whence came the chicken? They’re not too common on the interstate, so it must have had a motive for being there. I’m gonna guess that it was probably a dare by some older chicken bullies.

It’s been a week since I last posted…I haven’t really been on top of it. I was gonna post something the other day, but I started working on something and didn’t get around to it.

I’ve been working on a spell checker for the blog for the last two days, so that should be done by tomorrow. It’s totally freakin’ sweet. I made it just like Gmail’s spell checker. The page doesn’t reload or anything. Go AJAX!

Also, here are some new pictures I took the other day of an old elementary school. Some of them are pretty sweet.

This is my 100th post! w00t!

So anyway, on to bitching about retarded people. Apparently someone sent an email to the TV Tome person for Futurama saying that the title of the third episode of Futurama’s first season, “I, Roommate” “is an obvious reference to the Will Smith film I Robot.” How could someone be this retarded? Aside from the obvious fact that “I, Robot” was a story written by Isaac Asimov, the episode in question was made in 1999 and the movie in 2004. The credits of the movie even say the movie was “suggested by the work of Isaac Asimov,” and they obviously saw the movie. The idiocy of people never ceases to astound me.

This scares me just as much as anything though. The fact that this person can be completely oblivious and ignorant to anything that happened before last year is very disturbing. It does nothing but emphasize the prominence of the downward spiral in which our society currently resides.

And how dare they defile the good name of my hero, Bender Bending Rodriquez!
