Rember Cheetara from Thundercats?

I do, I remember her being a pretty useless character at least. I loved the Thundercats when I was a kid, I believe I still have a copy of the pilot episode on VHS. Anyway, the reason I bring it up is actually not because of the new Thundercats show on Cartoon Network, no instead it's in reference to an interesting top ten list compiled by Rob over at Topless Robot.

You see he complied a list of the top ten sexiest geek costumes for women, not including Slave Leia (which is pretty much where most guys would expect such a list to go). Well number 4 on his list was a rather fetching cosplay of Cheetara (image embedded below). Now had I been compliling said list, this would have been Number 1 (capital N is intentional there FYI). Instead he ranked Catwoman as the hottest costume. I respectfully disagree, but perhaps that says more about me than anything else... but I digress. He does mention that Cheetara wasn't even on the list until this image was brought to his attention, so I have to give him props for propelling the character from 'not on the list' to 'fourth place'.

And now for your viewing pleasure - Cheetara x2:


It should really be number 1 shouldn't it?

Dolph Lundgren and Norton Anti-Virus

I love Dolph Lundgren, he may not be much of an actor, but the guy knows how to have fun. In fact, I retract that last statement about his acting ability. I still love Masters of the Universe, regardless of how dated it may look these days.

Anyway, one of my first posts on this blog was Dolph performing a rather famous Elvis number, something that I was obliged to watch over, and over, and over again when I first discovered it. I honestly don't know if this is a real Norton Anti-Virus commercial or if its a fake of some sort, in any case I don't really care. Take a gander and enjoy.

Oh and once again I have to give a shout out to Rob at Topless Robot, I saw this video there first :)

The Magic 8 Ball

Every woman has one deeply rooted in their brain, or so says the bloke over on Badmovies.org.
His argument is copied in its entirety below:
----------
What is up with women? I swear that all of them act like this, even in this day and age. One minute she is angry at you, but the next minute she wants to move in together. She tries to disembowel you with a scimitar Monday night, and then shows up on your doorstep Saturday morning crying that you have not called her in a week. Seriously, I think that women have a Magic 8-Ball in their head that tells them what to do. Possible results include:

Scream at him
Buy him something he has wanted for a long time
Kiss him
Call his mom
Toss his clothes into the trash
Rearrange the furniture
Hazy, try again
Throw pots and pans
Go back to college
Sleep with his best friend

That insane unpredictability is why men want to conquer the world. We are trying to get away from the craziness that women subject us to on a daily basis. The fellows whose homes we are pillaging know exactly why we are out burning and looting everything in sight. They want to fight us. They're like, "Woman driving you crazy? Yeah, mine too! I'll get my sword! Thank goodness you came along when you did!" 
----------
Honestly, I think this is the most plausible explanation of female behavior I've ever heard. It certainly describes pretty much every situation a guy could conceivably find himself in. Anyway, I just thought this was little gem was worth sharing. I'll let you get back to your regularly scheduled broadcast now.
