Best Buy Pricing Errors Cause a Stir

NEW YORK – Few if any of the deals retailers have offered online during the recession have been as good as Best Buy Inc.’s sale price of $9.99 on a 52-inch TV Wednesday. But it quickly turned out the offer was too good to be true. Read more

My Beef with Breakfast

I hate breakfast. I hate making breakfast. I’d rather be asleep. The only reason I eat breakfast is because I love food. But what I don’t love is being forced to believe that eating breakfast will make me a more efficient and healthy person. It is 7:51AM right now as I’m writing this and I have not eaten breakfast nor do I intend to.

What has Breakfast done for you lately? The best thing to come out of 3031+ years of Breakfast was Orange Juice. Orange Juice and those teeny sausages, but they’re not even that great. I loathe making pancakes. They are flat, round, fluffy wastes of my damn time.

Everyone always says “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”. If that is true, then how is it that most people skip breakfast and still are productive, healthy, and efficient?  As a matter of fact, I’m more than positive if you ask 10 people “If you have to cut out one meal in the day, what would it be?” I’m sure that at least 9 people will say “breakfast”. That’s actually a good survey to conduct. Let me check, brb.

Ok, I asked 10 people on the way to the bank. Here’s what happened. 8 said Breakfast, one said Lunch (sorry for you), and 1 said Brunch (really, they said Brunch).

Think about it, breakfast is the least mouthwatering meal you can have. Lunch can be amazing, Dinner could be better than sex, but Breakfast? Even if you do have a spectacular breakfast, then you become sluggish and don’t feel like doing a damn thing. Is that any way to start off your day?

I think Breakfast has a low self-esteem and is overcompensating by shoving how “important” he thinks he is down everyone’s throat…literally. Breakfast sux.

Badass of the Week: Anderson Silva

Anderson “The Spider” Silva

Yep, I had to do it. If this dude’s not bad, then you just don’t even know the meaning of the word. This weekend, Anderson Silva fought top Light Heavyweight Contender Forrest Griffin in the UFC. Now say what you want about Forrest, but the guy can fight. He may not be Top 10 (in my opinion he’s not), he may be drastically overrated, but he’s above the halfway point of the division. For those who don’t understand or are aware of what exactly happened Saturday Night, let me set it up.

Anderson Silva is currently the reigning UFC Middleweight Champion (185 lbs). He’s basically demolished everyone in his path for the last several years and has only be truly defeated three times before. His highlight reel is one of the most jaw dropping in MMA. What makes this more fascinating is that the people he humiliates are top of the line contenders and is somehow able to make them look like they don’t belong in the cage/ring with him. Furthermore, the guy has a career striking accuracy is much higher than anyone’s in the sport.

Over the course of his career, Silva’s average striking accuracy per-fight is an even 70%. To give some context, the average fighter’s accuracy is around 35%, and Silva’s opponents’ accuracy in their fights against him is 24%. That means Silva is twice as accurate as your standard fighter and nearly three times as accurate as the people fighting against him. His footwork and technique are such that not only does he connect, he also makes his opponents miss. – Yahoo! Sports

You know you’re a bad moFo when you knock someone out while you’re backpedaling with your WEAK hand. You know you’re a badass when you can stand 1 foot from your opponent with your hands at your side and not only not get touched, but somehow manage to dodge everything that is thrown at you. Seriously, I’m not even gonna talk too much about this cuz words don’t do it. Just watch the video.
