Patriots are 18-1*
Posted by The Gimcracker in Sports on 04. Feb, 2008 | 5 Comments
A lot of people lost a bunch of money yesterday, and a few people can now retire. The Giants weren’t supposed to win. No one thought the Giants could beat the Patriots. This is somewhat of a surprise to me since the Giants almost handed it to them a few weeks back, losing by only [...]
Reclaiming The Gospel
Posted by The Gimcracker in Theory & Philosophy on 29. Jan, 2008 | 16 Comments
I was recently directed to read a brief article about the current state of Orthodoxy in America, written by Bradley Nassif. This article sums up exactly what I’ve been recently discussing with my wife and friends, and I agree whole-heartedly with the author. For anyone who is Orthodox and has not yet read the article [...]
Cloverfield vs. I Am Legend
Posted by The Gimcracker in Beratings, Movies, Reference Burst Theory on 28. Jan, 2008 | 12 Comments
A few weeks ago I saw a little film – don’t know if you’ve heard of it – called I Am Legend. It was good. Dang good. Yesterday I saw another movie called Cloverfield. It was better. Dang better. And that’s saying a lot because I Am Legend got at least a 2/10 Berating (soon [...]
The Stupidest Thing That Has Ever Happened
Posted by The Gimcracker in Gimcrackery, ROFL on 22. Jan, 2008 | 6 Comments
One of the things that is wrong with this world is people who are incapable of thinking outside the box. Some call this a lack of common sense. When discussing this topic, I like to refer to Mark 2:27 in which Jesus says to the Pharisees, “The sabbath was made for man, and not man [...]
Dear Sister
Posted by The Gimcracker in ROFL on 17. Jan, 2008 | 16 Comments
No, I’m not imploring you, little sis. There are certain things in life that no one can explain. What is laughter? Why does laughter build upon itself? How does a car engine work? These are mysteries that will never be solved. I have another question along these same lines: why are Saturday Night Live Digital [...]
Why Do Bloggers Brag?
Posted by The Gimcracker in Blogging, Theory & Philosophy on 15. Jan, 2008 | 18 Comments
This one’s going to get me into trouble. Maybe that means it’s a good post. Or maybe it means I shouldn’t write it. Too late. I already made that collage of blog logos. I have a question: why do some bloggers feel the need to brag about their lives? OK, now let me backpedal 20 [...]
LOLheads – The Bill Belimatti
Posted by The Gimcracker in LOLheads on 09. Jan, 2008 | 3 Comments
This just in! My crack team of LOLhead photographers has captured some new images of Mr. Belichick like you’ve never seen him before! I don’t know how it’s happening, but Bill Belichick is turning into Paul Giamatti – that guy who plays the maintenance man in Lady in the Water. See for yourself: Here he [...]
Our Sun Is Tiny
Posted by The Gimcracker in Science on 09. Jan, 2008 | 2 Comments
I found another cool video that is similar to the one in this post about the distances in our universe, however this video compares the sizes of celestial bodies such as Earth, Jupiter, the Sun and more. Previously, I thought the differences between the sizes of the stars was like the differences between the sizes [...]
If Caffeine Came In Video Form…

…this would wake you up on even your absolute worst mornings. The videos get better and better… or shall I say worse and worse. If you’re going to click the play buttons below, promise me you’ll actually watch to the end. Initially I thought I had seen all these clips before, but I was wrong. [...]
Birds Are Faster Than Deer
Posted by The Gimcracker in Amazing, Science on 04. Jan, 2008 | 3 Comments
Remember my post about cats pwning humans? Well sometimes animals fight other animals too. It’s just something you’re going to have to deal with. In this case, a bird fights a deer. And by “fights” I mean “captures in its talons”. The deer never had a chance. Watch right at the end when the eagle [...]
