Why Windows Phone 7 Will Fail

June 22nd, 2010

Two years ago I wrote about what Microsoft needed to do to turn their platform around.  Now with Windows Phone 7 only months away, it would appear Microsoft has failed in every way imaginable. Windows Phone 7 will be a miserable failure.  There are many countless reasons why it is going to epic fail, but [...]

Fox finally shit-cans a show that deserves it

May 17th, 2010

It seems like only 7 short months ago I wrote… wait, 7 months? I can’t believe it took 7 months… but yes folks, Fox has FINALLY canceled the Wanda Sykes show.  Let us all rejoice. That is all.

Walmart, more like Wastemart

May 3rd, 2010

Pssst, Walmart… it’s hard to believe your silly commercials about efficient truck routes and less cardboard in shipping to help save resources, when I go to your store, buy a 12 pack of soda and some saltine crackers, and I get a receipt that is 15 inches long!!! Seriously?  2 items should warrant a receipt [...]

New Wave Communications: The Worst ISP in America

March 25th, 2010

It’s hard to even figure out where to start with a company as truly awful as New Wave Communications is, but I’ll do my best to start where my problems with them started, which is as soon as the took over my local cable network from Charter Cable in Spring of 2008. Since the very [...]

It’s 2010, do you know where your balls are?

Apparently HP does.  In their mice. Come on people.  It’s 2010.  Optical mice can be had from Newegg for $4.  I can’t believe ball-mice are still being packaged with new machines.  And this wasn’t even a cheap piece of crap Acer, this came with a brand new HP Proliant server!  Sheesh.  Spare no expense with [...]

Windows 7 Annoyance: File Properties

March 7th, 2010

For the most part Windows 7 is great.  There are a few – things – about it that annoy me, and I have found another.  This “feature” has popped up a couple times and is very frustrating when it does. For files created/modified in the last 24 hours, Windows 7 does not display the file [...]

Wanda Sykes Sucks

October 25th, 2009

Yup, that’s right.  She is a talentless hack, and every time I hear her obnoxious voice on tv, it makes me want to change the channel.  Seriously… she is not funny, she is annoying, and usually offensive. I can’t wait for Fox to cancel what will surely be one of the worst shows to ever [...]

Good Riddance Hulu

October 23rd, 2009

Apparently Hulu will begin charging for it’s content in 2010 Hulu has done all it can to push away viewers of it’s service and it looks like it is going to deliver the final blow. Why does Hulu think they can charge for their mediocre-quality streaming service that locks people in to their site and [...]
