The Bay Fish & Chips

The Bay Fish & Chips, Sunnyvale, CA

I finally tried The Bay Fish & Chips last week and it has that greasy spoon with great food feeling. Aside from pleasantly big, deep-fried pieces of fish, they also offer shrimp, calamari, scallops, etc. And aside from classic chips, they also have deep-fried mushrooms, zucchini, artichoke, onion rings, etc.

What’s twisted, though? The fish tank with two giant goldfish swimming around, sitting right there, up on the counter, with a good view to where they cook the fish.

Robert is Bothered

I love Twilight (really, almost to an unhealthy degree…) and think Robert Pattinson is great– loved him first as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. More recently, check him out in Little Ashes and How to Be to appreciate him fully as an actor, not just ridiculously good-looking, brooding, “good” vampire Edward Cullen.

Having said that, I love Jimmy Fallon too and these spots he does are hilarious. Here’s the one on Snickers Ads:

My White Friends

A friend sent this to me and I just had to pass it on. Like Cindy says, it’s “so freakin’ awesome!”

Noticed this in the basement of Dinkelspiel Auditorium (or Dink Meeker Auditorium, as I like to call it). Ha ha, very funny. Those crazy Stanford kids.

Aries Spears

Aries Spears is most famous for his work on Madtv. One of my favorite sketches with him is “DMX & Mama X” (you kind of need to know about DMX to truly appreciate this):

And from his stand-up show, on hip hop. Fast forward to 1:28 to see him perform as LL Cool J, Snoop, DMX, and Jay-Z:

Flight of the Conchords: The Humans are Dead

All of this is great, but fast forward to 1:26 to hear the binary solo:

Again, from tosh.0:

Drunk Goldblum

Oh God, I love it:

Am I the only one who still finds Jeff Goldblum attractive in a non-human way (The Fly, Earth Girls Are Easy)?

University of Phoenix Commencement Speech

It’s really not nice to make fun of University of Phoenix like this, but I can’t help it:

Disclaimer: I actually know a really smart and talented engineer who, after so many years in the industry, but no official degree, did his undergraduate degree through them so he could move on to a Master’s and I can’t blame him. Good for him.
