Batman’s Epic Slap to Robin’s Kisser

I am having way too much fun with the Batman and Robin comic generator this morning.  It is Monday though, so I am allowed a little leeway, right?

Pow, right in the kisser!

My question to you all is, did it really happen or is this some Internet hoax?

Superman is Such a Jerk!

Poor Jimmy...Who knew Superman was such a big jerk?  Thanks to Superdickery, now I do.  This collection of classic comic book covers has tons of entertainment value. 

Here are a few of my other favorites I have stumbled across:

It is crazy to look back at some of these and wonder what exactly they were thinking when they came up with these covers.  Of course, the commentary from Superdickery just makes it even better. 

Now one of my favorite places to kill time, I salute you Superdickery.com in all your oddness.

Green Lantern Saves the Desktop

Looking through some of the press art for Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, I found a picture of the Green Lantern that made the perfect wallpaper.  So started up Paint Shop Pro and created this…

Hal Jordan as the Green Lantern has always been my favorite.  For those who might need a history lesson though, Wikipedia comes to the rescue:

Each Green Lantern possesses a power ring that gives the user great control over the physical world as long as the wielder has sufficient willpower and strength to wield it. While the ring of the Golden Age Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was magically powered, the rings worn by all subsequent Lanterns were technological creations of the Guardians of the Universe, who granted such rings to worthy candidates. These individuals made up the intergalactic police force known as the Green Lantern Corps.

Want the original or more giant press art for Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe?  Google has a ton of them from the web site videogamesblogger.com.

Make Your Own Super Hero

Scottish TerrierPersonally, I am more of a fan of DC comics, however the Marvel web site does have a new cool toy I can play with.  What does it do?  It allows me to finally make the super hero of my dreams. Think of this as super powers and funny costumes meet digital paper dolls.

Here is one I just whipped up… 

What, you don’t fear the Scottish Terrier?!  Here are a few more “Make a Hero” online tools.

Hopefully, this will come in handy.  Never know when you might need a hero! *cue the music*

Oh Johnny 5, where are you when we need you the most?

Lego Batman – the Desktop Icons

One of my most recent video game guilty pleasures has been playing Lego Batman.  It might look a ‘bit cheesy, but it is really addicting and cute.  So for my next desktop icon project, I figured I would deliver to you both a Lego Batman and a Lego Robin icon for your desktop.

+ Download the Lego Batman and Robin Desktop Icons (.zip)

The icon is compatible with the following sizes:  256 x 256, 128 x 128, 64 x 64, 48 x 48, 32 x 32, 24 x 24, 16 x 16.  It is also in both .ico and .png format.

Wouldn’t these look totally awesome as your PC icon, or maybe even your Documents folder?  I hate to make the obvious PC security joke here, so I’ll just leave you to come up with own.

Garfield Christmas Special… (without Garfield)

I must have a deep seeded aggression against orange cats for some reason. Coming from the comments, I got passed this link to the Garfield Christmas Special. The odd thing is that Garfield (and Oddie) have both been edited out of it. Not sure how they did it but it does make for an interesting (and much shorter) version of the story.

Also, not to spoil anything – but make sure you watch it all the way to the end.

Outsourcing Your Support Needs

Is it a good thing when a Web hosting company starts to get rid of their workers in the United States to replace them with cheaper labor from overseas?

Of course not! I do have some good friends that live overseas and that are in the Web hosting world as well. Those are not the folks I am mad at. I am mad at the big hosting companies tossing perfectly good system admins out on the street and then going to these overseas sweat shops to find a replacement.

Now I don’t think this is as big of a problem as it used to be – but it is still going on. Companies outside of the USA are doing it as well. Computer companies are the worst offenders when it comes to these practices.

Hosting Support

This is the last of my Web hosting comic series for now. If you have enjoyed those that I have posted in the past and this one as well, please let me know. In other words, leave a comment man! I would love to continue if you want me to.

GoDaddy – Web Hosting For Boobs?

Now the last time I said anything bad about GoDaddy’s Web hosting I got a phone call from somebody in a suit asking me why I would say such things about them. It is kind of a scary thought – at first I thought they might try to sue me or something.

I told them my problems with their services though and they listened. After they were done listening, they pretty much told me, “Well, this is the way things are and we like it that way” or something to that effect.

Go ahead and search Google, I know I am not alone here. I do not make fun of GoDaddy’s hosting because it is funny – I do it because I love them and I want them to get better. Just think of GoDaddy as the run away stray dog and me as the sheep herder. Not like I am going to hear from ol’ Bob on top of his golden domain palace – but I know somebody in GoDaddy headquarters will see me from way down here.

If Web Hosting Servers Could Talk

Maybe it was that New Year’s Eve that you stayed locked in the data center looking at the cold lifeless machines that made you wonder what they would be thinking?

Maybe it was because you kept that bottle of champagne to yourself and you had already downed the other two bottles before you got to work.

No matter what the reason might be, you know as well as I do that you have wondered what those servers would be saying to one another. You sick, sick little man!

Web Hosting Comic #2

Know any servers personally? If so, what do you think they are thinking right now?
