I used to have those kind of bracelets and necklace and to get them to gloe you would stick them in the freezer. I loved to wear them for halloween.

Hey Matt. Great new layout. The site’s lookin’ better as the years go along.

Anyways, here is a disturbing little fact for you. I was checking out some Blog entries, and I noticed your girlfriend loves Care Bears. (Un)Fortunatly, mine does as well. In the summer, I got her one of those plush ones (the $5.99 ones at Toys R Us) and she loved it. So naturally, next time she was mad at me, I bought her another one. Long story short, I vowed to collect all ten of the bastards by the end of the summer. I eventually attained my goal, but I learned some very crucial points in the process. I bought the first 4-5 bears from Toys R Us and then got one (Sunshine Bear) from Saturday Matinee (a big ass movie store here in PA, you probably have one in Jersey.)

I was in her room with her when she was adding it to the collection when her face went white. Turns out, the one from Saturday Matinee wasn’t the same as the Toys R Us ones. The big differences were the feet and the hair. The hearts on the feet of the Toys R Us version Bears were the same color as the bear. So Good Luck Bear’s hearts were green, get it? Well, on the Saturday Matinee bear, the hearts were white!

Upon further investigation, I found that all the Bears at Saturday Matinee (along with Spencers, Hot Topic, and others) had the white hearts. So, I took it upon me to unofficially deem any bear with white hearts on his/her feet a ripoff bear.

Granted, they are not actually "ripoffs" as they bare the official Carebear logo, but to me, they just ain’t the same as the Toys R Us bears.

So really, I just wanted to warn you so when you decide the woman needs more Care Bears that you go with continunity and not settle for like 4 bears with colored hearts and 5 bears with white hearts.

Then again, maybe I’m just a whippled, psychotic fool. Who knows….

No Nate, you’re right. We women are obsessive and nitpicky, it is best to pick one heart colour and stay with it. Besides, if you’re giving out make-up gifts you have to be extra careful, since an angry girl will jump on almost any excuse to be upset. I’m not even being sarcastic…

Chestnuts roasted by Gabbylicious @ 01/02/2004 2:28 AM

Yeah, Gabbylicious is right.

I’m not that bad about it, but I’ve seen some women go nuts trying to find pathetic excuses to fight about. Although, they usually have another problem concerning you or someone else that they want to tiptoe around or don’t want to address at all for some reason.
Note: Not always, though. Some women are just mean.

Read between the lines, guys.

Chestnuts roasted by Rachel Cakes @ 01/02/2004 3:57 AM

I love the new look!!

Chestnuts roasted by Terry @ 01/02/2004 4:08 AM

I enjoy the new look too Matt. Let’s get back to kick ass articles about kick ass things, non holiday related.

I was getting worried that we were going to have valentines day themed articles… that just wouldn’t be right.

Chestnuts roasted by chad @ 01/02/2004 8:16 AM

Three in a row! The site is being taken over by girrrlllss. Everybody, quick, to the fort!!!

*bumps head*

Damn nostalgia.

In other news, I found a tape not too long ago that still had the care bear movie on it, that wasn’t the interesting thing though. The interesting thing was what I found after the movie…

It was a short clip from a show that I can’t seem to recall. In the clip, a little boy and girl are supposed to be trying to give their cat a bath (I’m assuming it’s their cat). Anyway, they seem to instead wish the cat to be dead or so it looks from their attempts to catch the thing.

They end up getting the cat in the end (after squirting eachother 10 thousand times with their juice bottles) by digging a big ass hole in the ground and dropping a fish into it. Actually, I don’t really know why I’m rambling on about this clip, I guess you really had to be there to see how messed up it is.

It looks like some type of Sesame Street clip, only ten times more demonic. Does anybody remember anything like this?

mmhmm… ‘nother girl here… i was given all those smaller plush bears, and i just dashed to my shelf to double check their likenesses. they have all the same feets, but the one my mother got me (and i have dubbed an outcast and sent to another part of the room) has white soles.

careful with the bears, boys O_o

Chestnuts roasted by zann @ 01/02/2004 10:00 AM

Matt, if you have some extra money to blow on a rare movie from Ebay, may I suggest "Rock & Rule." This is the Canadian equivalent of the "Heavy Metal" ( http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0082509/ ) movie. I saw R&R once years ago and I can see why it is a cult classic with the liks of Iggy Pop providing a villian’s voice. Here are some links: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0086203/
http://www3.telus.net/jcannon/rocknrule/index.html

If you do a search on Ebay for R&R another movie title will come up, "Starchaser." This was originally in 3-D and does have a similar art style to R&R. It would also make a cool X-E movie.

Chestnuts roasted by ME @ 01/02/2004 12:19 PM

I think we need to send out a search party. 14 posts and no Killer Duck. This is just wrong.

Chestnuts roasted by Gabbylicious @ 01/02/2004 1:12 PM

I could go look, but all I’d do is spank her with a Hot Wheels track.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 01/02/2004 1:43 PM

Aww I was missed…how nice. I have been busy-ish. Weird for me, I’m not used to it. I like the new look. As for the site being taken over by girls, I won’t respond to that comment except to remind that I am also a girl :)
I’m turning 31 in 19 days so I feel old and irritable. Not that I don’t feel irritable on other days too…add to that fact that I have been spending nearly every waking and sleeping hour with my ex and you’ve got a missing Killer Duck.
Random ramble: just what the f*** does Viewtiful Joe say? Asian a go go baby? And what is the deal with his spindly little legs?

Chestnuts roasted by Killer Duck @ 01/02/2004 2:13 PM

I am too lazy to fix up a decent home page right now and really feel f***ed for writing in the first person…
I think Matt should review the movie Sasquatch starring Lance Henrickson. Anything starring Lance H. should be a classic. Except Sasquatch. The monster looks like he has the mange. Two wings down.

Chestnuts roasted by Killer Duck @ 01/02/2004 2:31 PM

Nuttin’ wrong with 31, I was born in 1969, and I remember most of the 70′s. Explains why X-E is such a great find to me. Anything to keep the polyester flashbacks at bay. And the random visions of Pink Lady and Jeff.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 01/02/2004 2:47 PM

Let’s give kitty a bath. LOL When I heard the title for it, I thought it would be a cheesy horror movie.

Don’t worry Killer Duck, 31 is still young. And you’re playin with toys and visiting childhood at XE so you’re still a kid at heart. ^_^ And incase I forget in 19 days, Happy Birthday!

Chestnuts roasted by heeloyd @ 01/02/2004 2:50 PM

I play with toys on a daily basis. Yesterday I bought several cans of Play Doh just because I wanted to. I feel a little better knowing that king is older than me ;)
The give kitty a bath reminded me of South Park:
Cartman: "mom, Kitty’s being a dildo!"
Cartman’s mother: "Well now I know a certain Kitty Kitty who’s sleeping with mommy tonight."

Chestnuts roasted by Killer Duck @ 01/02/2004 2:57 PM

There are a lot of people around here who are still waiting for me to leave emotional puberty. Play-D’oh, not just for breakfast anymore.

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 01/02/2004 3:11 PM

My dog likes Play Doh too. Thinks it’s food. Then again he licks his own ass too so can’t go to him for taste advice.

Chestnuts roasted by Killer Duck @ 01/02/2004 4:23 PM

As the comedian said, the most you could probably get out of a real talking dog is, "You know, vomit really doesn’t taste half-bad!"

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 01/02/2004 4:27 PM

Killer Duck: I’m pretty sure Viewtiful Joe says "Henshin a Go Go" Don’t ask me what it means, I haven’t got a clue.

I like the new site design, especially the various site links at the top. Also, the larger article pics are nice for those of us with Higher res. monitors.

BTW, I was in Target today; no luck on Shoutin’ Orange Tangergreen, but I did notice that they had serveral Playmobil advent calendars for about 11 bucks. They also had a playmobil "ornament Pack" Sadly, no Killer Reindeer in the ornament pack.
