Guys, lets all ease up, put on some music and remember that "race" in humans is nothing but an arbitrary concept. Like my favorite reggae band once said:
If you want more beats for you buck there's no luck
Then there's no luck
Then again if you came for drama then I can't understand a
Music critics
Not afraid of a guy who'll tell you he's never been in a mix
Been in a mix
We're from the grassroots so big up to our friends
Every crew, every click, and every posse
Big up to all the heads not of hypocrisy
You're a transistor
Lightning resistor
Conducting to the mother star
That's what you are

Well, it's also my busy season and I have to go in to the office instead of telecommuting. Do you think the schools will mind if I use the interns to read me VG?
Don't forget to RSVP to the First Unofficial International Videogum Monster Meetup in April so we know what size of a place to get https://www.facebook.com/events/390112901058367/?fref=ts
We're going to start sorting out the details in the next couple of weeks.
I spend a very long time considering joining the cat circus but I decided against it. http://www.circuscats.com/
I you're interested you can check out their official fan club. https://www.facebook.com/groups/acrocats/permalink/439042482834019/
I'm now in charge of two interns and a tiny dog so I probably won't be reading as much or commenting. Sademoticon.gif Well, anyways, I'll try to comment at night at least. Can we start a night commenting crew?
You guys ever hear the story of the Puppy Channel? It precedes the Puppy Bowl and it's a pretty cool story. Lets sit around the fire and listen to Ira Glass spin a yarn. http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/233/starting-from-scratch
As always, Bob's Burgers was great but my favorite show of the week in this week was Adventure Time. It's not really a comedy pear say but dammit if that show isn't enjoyable. It's not just that I recently registered my female dog with the AKC as Canela Chris Jr. or the fact that I have a rainbow unicorn. Don't get scared off because it's on Cartoon Network, start watching that ish now, dawg.
Congratulations to the Monster College Bowl pick them winners.

I went to get my dog spayed and some lady buying tons of dog food wanted to pet her. She said, "bring her up, daddy, i need to see her." Then she looked at her face for a few seconds and went, "She is so pretty." Paused for a few seconds and followed that by "she has a face only a father could love." And just as I was walking away she looked at me and told me " She's a baby in a dog costume. Soon she will be a young lady in a dog costume, then she will be a lady in a dog costume, then she will be an old lady in a dog costume." Then she walked away. So, yes, good day.
I watched Cabin in the Woods the other day based on everyone's recommendation and booooooy was I disappointed. I know this is the Internet and badmouthing Joss Whedon is against all that it stands for, and I'm glad you guys enjoy his work but after watching a few of his projects (this one, Dollhouse and Dr Horrible) my official stand on him is "no thanks, bro."
Oh, man! All the cool kids are buying this awesome book for the holidays! What, the proceeds go to charity?!

Wow what a good deal! I've never seen a better cook book from a mid-size pop culture website's commenters before!

Of all the bad end of the world jokes this is by far the worst. Though I did enjoy watching the people snap into survival mode. I was rooting for them. "save your self!" I shouted. Did you guys know that the Mayans had to concept of the world ending or an apocalypse? Europeans added the notion when they converted them and colonized them. Ah, colonizers, such pranksters! Anyways, if it is the end of the world, why not go out in style, that is chatting with the monsters 90s-style http://tinychat.com/videogum
Last year I made a resolution to eat 700 oranges over the course of the year. http://bit.ly/CTresolution2012
I ate about 70 until I got sick of them and gave up on it.

I watched 2 Days in New York and really liked it. This one is definitely better than 2 Days in Paris. I was dreading that it would be a crappy remake but instead it is a welcome sequel. Watch it you guys. There's even a special surprise near the end for all the Gumheads.
I feel like Air Bud is not technically a dogsplotaion movie (though Air Bud 2+ are). I feel like a true dogsplotation movie has to not give a fuck about the humans, be magical somehow, or have highly anthropomorphic animals. You could argue that Bud is supercanine but I feel like there's too much non-dog story in there to be a true dogsplotation movie. But this is exactly why we NEED this post. This is a very important genre that need to be explored by our community.
Don't worry about that, I have to redesign MOBFD soon because the rankings are kind of irrelevant now that WerttreW doesn't do them and the lists are outdated. Post away. I just hadn't done it because it took me ages to design the current layout since I am kind of a dumbo when it comes to computers. If only I knew someone who designed webpages for a living. Oh well.
I've would comment the heck out of your post if you post them on MOBFD. I wanted to do the same thing, as I like watching dog movies while I work but I never got the time to get past the name. I think you'd do a better job, anyways. It was going to be called Dogsplotation theater.
Anyways, you should do it and If anything at least a totes chillaxed, non-forced millenial term will be coined.
Bob's Burgers is great. It's really understated, specially next to Seth McFarlane's shit-joke-o-rama block but dang it if it's not great.
It's not even that Mindy's not a good show, it's that it's kind of awful. At least from where I'm standing. I read her book and loved it. I don't know what else to say, I just thought it would be not awful.
