Grand Theft Auto IV's Gay Mission? Yep And It's Suppose To Be Funny. [May. 9th, 2008|11:26 pm]
[Tags|, ]

Oh Shit, I need to bond with this game again during the weekend. I haven't had any chance cause of work.

It's gay bashing yes, but not as obvious as it appears to be.
Not that this matter with GTAIV, they are all about pushing buttons that no one wants pushed.


-------------------------------------
You may have heard of a little game called Grand Theft Auto IV. Its sales topped $500 million in its first week in stores. Tt What you may not know about GTA IV is that it has a gay theme (see video clip, right, via via GuyTVBlog).
Jockohomo writes: "No, big bruiser Niko Bellic is not gay but rather disturbingly plays a homosexual lothario on an online dating site to lure a gay Irish American mobster. Damn, my ears perked up regarding the gay sequence, but surprise the play is handled brilliantly and with a great deal of humor thanks to acclaimed screenwriter Shane Black (Lethal Weapon, The Last Boyscout and The Long Kiss Goodnight). Per usual players can choose not the complete certain missions; i.e. main character Niko benefits later from a friendship formed with the gay mobster. Remember you’re playing an apocalyptic adult game where no demographic remains unscathed. While GTAIV walks a precarious line I have to give Rockstar Games props for not defaulting to the usual homophobic sequence filled with stereotypes."

After reading EGM's cover story on Grand Theft Auto IV we gay gamers discover that this all new grand experience now includes a Gay Mission! EGM writes "One standout job, for example, has Niko posing as a homosexual lothario on an online dating site to lure a gay thug to a rendezvous."

Holy Cop Blowjob Batman, there's a Gay Mission in GTA4? Oh fuck yeah. I recently remember finding a double sided dildo to be used as a weapon in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and now with the game's latest sequel we get to play Gay! In case you're wondering the double sided dildo is in the police station in the back shower, I mean where else do you expect to find it in San Andreas? Once you have it know that it only takes 3 whacks to kill someone in the game.

Back to GTA4's Gay Mission. Wait, the actual mission's name is "Out Of The Closet..." and when you have the auto save feature on in your game you are then asked to save over file "Blow Your Cover". Oh GTA, are any of you Gay and working behind the scenes over at Rockstar? And byyyy the way. Brucie, the tough musclehead in the video is just what I need to get Game Wood. I wonder if he was designed after someone at Rockstar Games!

Okay, onto the mission. The game has this crappy dating website you're suppose to access in the game at the internet cafe shops. The site, Love-Meet.net, is where you'll look for "French Tom". After you meet him you're suppose to kill him. Ohhh shit, more gay bashing violence but what are we to expect from this game. Actually the character just happens to be gay and he's killed for his other antics that has nothing to do with him being gay. He's just an idiot who didn't pay people the money he owed them.

But don't you worry, Niko gets his for killing "French Tom". It seems once you kill Tom some of his buds nearby go after you and if you don't kill them or get away they end up killing you.

When Madonna goes on tour, one goes. [May. 8th, 2008|11:05 pm]

[feel | excited]

I am so beyond thrilled.

She is coming to see ME for once, in my city.
I don't have to pay airfare, hotel etc etc.
And I get to partake in more of the local Madonna themed events!
What most people don't know about M tours, sides that they are amazing, like works of art and iconic like Elvis concerts; is that there is a loyal fanbase, much like deadheads that follow her around. And those people are so fun to hang with. My best experiences at all her tours, has been getting to know everyone around you. It's like a giant community that is so diverse and so overtly friendly. There's mother-daughter teams, trannies, club-goers, hipsters, fashionistas, fab-50 women, gay couples, artists, drag queens, lesbian power couples and even grandmas.

My sister was text messaging me today demanding to know if I could get her tickets. (I took her with me as a last minute date to the Re-Invention tour in Atlanta and has been a fan ever since). I told her I was buying her ticket as a gift!

When Madonna goes on tour, one goes.

I also give myself more break periods so I come back stronger. I can either struggle to burn 300-400 in 2 days, or burn 800 straight up in one day.

Iron Downey Jr. [May. 3rd, 2008|10:37 pm]
[Tags|, , ]

Ok, all I was thinking about was Madonna's tour dates rumors. But Iron Man somehow took my mind off it. That's quite a feat.

This is one of the best Marvel movies in a long time.
They developed the character completely, RDJr is already madly loveable and this role was tailored for him.
I never understood the charactor of Iron Man. I just remember sketching Batman in 7th grade study hall, while my friend sketched the ugly (to me at the time) Iron Man. But now I get the character, and I love it.
I even liked Gwyneth, who is an " episcopalian upper east side princess with hollywood roots- the american dream mixture. she's so dry she has mad flava."
I hate Spiderman, he is so fucking emo.
Fantastic Four was shit, Hulk 1 was an embarrassment and Ghost Rider.. omg.
Iron Man, I think revives the Marvel movie revival that began with X-Men 1.

That is until, Batman rips the shit up again.

Stick around after the credits to Iron Man for a huge WTF moment.
Please post your thoughts on that particular scene. Cause my little brains can't comprehend it.

HC: Review [May. 3rd, 2008|05:03 pm]
[Tags|, ]
[listen |Madonna: Give It 2 Me (Paul Oakenfold Edit)]

I'm reviewing Hard Candy by Madonna.
Cuz I can.



Candy Store: C-
A dainty beat is saved from being too generic with the first of many catchphrases this album has to offer. Sticky and sweet, my sugar is sweet. Don't think about it too much, that's the theme of this album.

4 Minutes to Save the World: C
The first thing I noticed about this song was how Justin's and Madonna's voices were lowered to match each other, and.. what's a good word for gender neutralized? Modern ears know this is M and J, but others would have no clue who was the boy and girl you had to grab. This is a perfected formula featuring pop gods, This song is so precisely manufactured, it could actually make canned cheeseburgers a reality.

Give it 2 Me: B+
Finally some real meat. The nitrates were killing me.
This is the real theme of the album and her career. Madonna is gonna go on and on, nothing is gonna stop her. She's a machine. The enticing trip hop bounce of the song is only marred by the faux-Nelly Furtado chant of "get stupid get stupid!". It pulses and bounces, and layers and layers of sound numb you at this point. Her music has never been so.. overwhelming before.

Heartbeat: C
This song harkens all the way back to the breakfast club and her first album. I'd say this album is a dollop of the first album, and a big cup of Erotica.

Miles Away: A-
Frustrates me. I would have preferred an album full of well developed songs like this one.
I predict her next album will be more ballad heavy. Her career follows a certain loop. And it's time to go back to adult radio.
We all love dancing disco bunny madonna. But quite a few of us finally respected her for her quiet, but intensely layered pop ballads.
I would love a unmixed version of this song.
This one will be big.

She's Not Me: C+ B-
Who is she not? Britney? Robin? Annette?
This is a revisit to "Queen of Hearts".
QOH was awkward just like this song.
"pimp your style"??
That's as dated as QOH was in 92.
The Pharrell break in the middle kills me. It's so random. This song also features a reoccuring theme, the song seems to end, but then pulses back to life. Much like Madonna. She can't die, you do realize that?
Bonus! FF to around 4:04 to hear a breathless lyric that sounds exactly like a Wendy-Lisa-Prince break. That alone ups the grade of this song.

Incredible: B+
A soaring, relentless dance anthem. It seriously doe not end.
This song plays on loop in purgatory. That's a good thing.

Beat Goes On: B
This is a nice change after the wringer the last song puts you through.
The album goes back to bounce after throbbing so hard.
Midway song, the lights dim, the neon fires up, the black lights glow and it evolves into an entirely different beast.
Unfortunately Madonna gets lost. For a prescence like hers to get drowned out in her own album is an effort, but that's mostly Kanye West. It smolders at the expense of Madonna's voice. Which may be a good or bad thing for some of you.

Dance 2Night: B+
Madonna took a little bathroom break there, or vitamin b shot, but she's back and refreshed at Justin's urging.
She takes over again and cools off the crowd. Her vocals are hoarse and strained because it has been a long night. This song takes pace long after last call at the bar, the only thing everyone is drinking is mint water and grinding into each other. Endorphins are being released and you are attemopting to do that bend knee squat dance you think you can do, but instead end up pulling something.

Spanish Lessons: F
UGH, who turned on the lights?
*skips this song forever*

Devil Wouldn't Recognize You: B
It's time to find your coat/purse/shirt and head out the door. But this is an awesome chill out song.
So you stay. Frustration sets in again, but not as much as before at the potential of a hit ballad record.
Afterall you just wrung yourself out on the dancefloor, you are still high on the endorphins. You just realize, hey this works. And this is a perfect evening cap to the dance jolt Madonna is still capable of producing at her 50th.

Voices: B-
Credits.
Predecessor, to this? Come on.
This will be missed...
The year 2020 will be a sad place to live in.

so sue me, this is cute.
taken from the SATC movie press kit.

CARRIE
2 ounces Skyy vodka
1 ounce X-Rated Fusion Liqueur
2 ounces cranberry juice
3/4 ounce sparkling apple cider
Shake Skyy, X-Rated and cranberry with ice and strain into chilled martini glass. Top with cider and garnish with a thin apple slice.

"Enjoy this cocktail over lunch or after work with your girlfriends to relax and kick off your Manolo Blahnik heels."

MIRANDA
2 ounces Skyy vodka
3/4 ounce Campari
2 ounces pomegranate juice
1 ounce Triple Sec
Squeeze of lemon
Shake with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a lemon wheel.

Notes: "As Miranda would say, 'Soul mates only exist in the Hallmark aisle of Duane Reade Drugs.' This hint of bitterness can be found in Miranda's cocktail but is softened by the sweet touches that make Miranda so loveable."

CHARLOTTE
2 ounces Skyy vodka
2 ounces pink lemonade
1 ounces Triple Sec
1/2 ounce Midori Melon liqueur
Shake with ice and strain into chilled martini glass. Garnish with an edible flower.

Notes: "Charlotte's signature cocktail starts off a bit conservative, but then leaves them something for the imagination."

SAMANTHA
2 1/2 ounces Skyy vodka
1 1/2 ounces Cabo Wabo Anejo tequila
1 ounce simple syrup
1 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
Shake with ice and strain into chilled martini glass. Rim glass with mixture of salt and small amount of white pepper. No garnish.

Notes: "Samantha definitely speaks her mind and reminds us that we all have a wild side waiting to be revealed."

drumroll!

five solid pounds gone.

And this is interesting, going from total cardio to strenth training.
With cardio I was addicted to going to the gym. I couldn't wait to do another session. But I really didn't lose much.
With strength training, especially after last monday's session, I felt like dying. Your body feels like it has the flu. And no, you don't want to go to the gym. And I actually didn't go 4 days out of this week for the first time in a month.
And even better than the weight loss, I see the change. My pants fit just a smidge looser, and my body looks like its decompressing. Hopefully muscle will show up next.
But I have to say, my endurance levels have taken a nosedive. I could run and elliptical for an hour, i can barely get 10 min now.
I just want to lay down and hurt quietly.

Ok, so today I did 30 min treadmill, then 20 min of hiit.
I'm a little afraid that I am doing so many things differently in my life including food, exercise etc. That when I strart losing weight I wont be able to pinpoint exactly what caused it to.
I'm kind of inside a swirl of chaos at the moment, but that's ok.
This is SO me to suddenly turn life on it's head every few years.
Anyways, today I recalibrated my HR monitor.
It seems to have raised my target HR about 10 more points, so that really upped my workouts.
At least nothing is getting stale. Last week I was effortlessly staying within target HR zone, now I had to work to get there.
I was told to stop cardio, but I really need to just ease off it instead. I want to lose weight. I know my trainer wants me to gain muscle weight, but I really need to lose that one more notch before I start really focusing on my weight training.
It's all so confusing :(
I don't always know what these numbers I keep posting mean. I'm hoping that one day soon, I will look back at collected logs and something will make sense.
In the meantime I keep chugging along, at the very least not sitting on my ass.

:)

Anyone else going?
The promotion for it was kinda sucky.

I'm guessing that's why there is currently a BUY ONE GET ONE FREE promotion at the moment.

Gonna make this section a weekly thing instead of daily. Otherwise a daily thing will get tedious quickly.
Leftover calories out of my allotted 2,267: 1,050


Started working out with a trainer today. He totally shredded my legs.
I hope they are sore tomorrow.
Also did 8 min of hiit, which also totally kicked my ass. I don't know if its cause I wore out my legs on weights, or if hiit is just crazy intense. Probably both. Gonna try for 10 min tomorrow.
Note the dismal numbers due to only weightlifting today.

I added The Daily Plate to my growing arsenal of fitness rituals. (my growing obsession)

Anyone else use it? It's pretty nifty.
Great points:
- you can edit and add foods to their growing database, so you can just click and add to your daily intake.
- it reminds me of my PDA diet program, which was very effective.
- it is iPhone/PDA cell phone friendly. Just log in and add your food and go.

Add me if you are on there: turi319

more info on thedailyplate.com

The Daily Plate is a sweet little dieting site that helps you keep tabs on what you’re eating. You start by entering your current weight and desired weight loss - the service then calculates what your daily calorie intake should be. Whenever you eat something, you search for the foodstuff on the site and hit the big green “I Ate This!” button to add that item to the “MyPlate” section. You can also log your physical activity, allowing The Daily Plate to calculate how many calories you’ve burned and subtract it from the total. The result is a neat little calendar that helps you track your progress over time.

The design is excellent - intuitive and easy to use - and there are a few notable social features: users can write reviews of certain foods, edit the food pages like a wiki, send messages to other members and chat in the forums. I’d like to see some more interactivity, like the ability to congratulate other users when they reach their goals, but I can understand why some users wouldn’t want any of their data to be shared.

The Daily Plate is far simpler than any of the existing weight loss applications (TracksLife could be used for this purpose, but it isn’t ideal) - what’s more, there’s a huge market for this stuff. And while logging every single item you eat isn’t everyone’s idea of fun, I think this is a really compelling offering.

I met with my REAL trainer today. I had originally signed up with this other dude, who turned out to have horrible ADD, was a pig who kept staring at all the female asses in the gym and asked ME to participate in gawking, wasted my time and his.
I noticed this other trainer, a short built asian guy who seemed to be really hands on with his clients and seemed to have a good personality.
I clearly chose the wrong guy.
SO I researched his name, switched schedules and hired him.
There was a bit of confusion after I did this, I simply said he was highly recommended.
No need to cause drama.

The asian dude is perfect!

He listened to me, he took notes he was really serious about this.

He completely evaluated me, didn't even charge me since I had that bad first experience.

And he came to a shocking solution to my goals.
My goals btw, are pretty humble, just to lose 10lbs and a belt notch or 2.

Basically he deduced that I had become a cardio gym bunny. I was simply burning my intake and that was that.
He is cutting off all my cardio!
He is gonna start me on all upper body work.
And he basically said I am gonna hurt so much I won't want to do cardio.
Also I will be burning calories naturally all day, so no cardio.

No cardio.

My world is upside down.

In other news, I got tickets to Austin City Limits.
Anyone else going, sides the usual suspects?

Ugh, I am so behind in my games.
I am old ya'll.


It feels like Mario Galaxy just came out, and I barely put a dent on it, and now Smash and now I need the Kart Wii one.
By the end of the year I will be sadly behind everyone.
