I have to say when a tongue is used as the murder weapon, I get turned on. Species was excellent in this regard. I have never been able to bust through the back of a chick’s head with my tongue, no matter how hard I try.

I doubt anyone has seen this movie, but the death of the catfish in the beginning of Children on Their Birthdays was pretty cool. S few older boys are fishing and one of them catches a catfish. To pick on a couple of younger boys, they tell them that the only way they can go by is to eat the catfish face. One of the younger kids (they’re about 12, while the older boys are about 15) wraps two hands around the fishy’s neck, opens his mouth and takes a huge bite of catfish lips. Woohoo! "Fish heads, fish heads, roly poly fish heads. Fish heads, fish heads, eat them up, yum!"

I’d have to say one of the most disappointing death scenes was Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace. I thought the fight should’ve lasted longer after those laser barriers disappeared and I’m sorry Industrial Light and Magic, but if you are supposedly masters of special effects you did a shitty job of depicting his split body falling down that shaft. PLus the cheesey expression on Darth Maul face didn’t help either.

Oh yeah I almost forgot….I always liked Sunkist Fun Fruits as a child but for some reason it always seemed like the lemon pieces were always hard as rocks!!!! Does anyone else remember this???

Remember Brach’s Rocks? They were really good. Heavily advertised in Ren and Stimpy comics, too.

Here’s a death scene for you. How bout when the guy from Henry the Red’s army was captured and thrown into that pit in Army of Darkness? A huge friggin wave of blood spurted out, and yet when Ash went down, he just ruined some deadite’s shit like it was nothing. What the hell? By the way the first guy died I was expecting some huge sarlacc type creature that spit him back out. As for fruit snacks, how bout the generic kind? I have no idea what the name of these things were, probably just fruit snacks or something, but basically they were little rain drop shaped fruit snacks in either grape, strawberry, or cherry, and seriously, they tasted better than any other kind of fruit snack out there. Did I get made fun of for the generic snack, sure, but they tasted so damn good.

MMMMMMMMM, Fruit snacks! By the way, I have a question to ask you that’s been eating at my mind for quite a while… WHAT THE HELL IS IT WITH THE NAME X-ENTERTAINMENT?! Seriously, everyone i tell about the site has to be told that its not a porn site. And, in my personal opinion, PORN IS FOR SICK PERVY LOOSERS!
Tootles!

Chestnuts roasted by TOM @ 10/15/2004 7:41 PM

X-Entertainment DOES sound like a porn site, but the X could mean X-Wing. Like in Star Wars.

Sadly… I’ve gone to three different places on my quest to obtain some of the Monster fruit snacks. I say sadly… because one, I can’t taste the red Dracula! and two, I actually dragged my wife to these various places! How sad is my life?! LOL I went searching for fruit snacks on a Friday night! LOL
…Kill me.

Chestnuts roasted by Croww @ 10/15/2004 9:49 PM

I liked that warning in your article about the yellow colored ones. LoL, as if you could read our minds and already know that this was the color that would be the cause of all our distresses. ha.

My question is if the whole bag had the red vampires and there were only 1 yellow guy, then would the yellow guy be the popular one that everyone wants?

It’s all physcology <–screw that word. I can’t spell it for the life of me. Why don’t we spell things pheontically <—gggrrrr Ironic that pheontically isn’t spelled pheontically (fonetikaly)

I was a dork–my family was the only house on the block with an active jar of wheat germ in the fridge and a television turned around to the wall until the annual State of the Union address. I wasn’t allowed to have "fruit snacks". Dammit! Therefore, I must admit that these look yummy, although I have no idea what the flavor might be like. I always wanted some, but I was never able to convince anyone to trade their packet of gummy goodness for my vegan carrot cookies.

To further my own (fleeting) reputation of a nerd on this board, I’d like to sincerely commend you, Matt, on your literary prowess:

"…artificial fruit morsels shaped like Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, the Wolfman and the Mummy."

Thank you for not calling him "Frankenstein". Seriously. Thank you. That is all.

/not ugly, buck-toothed, or wearing hemp…just deprived in childhood and smart as hell…I’m that cynical friend of the group of pretty girls you stalk in bars

there’s nothing wrong with dorks or being one….

Chestnuts roasted by phunqsauce @ 10/16/2004 2:50 AM

saw the fruit snacks at the store today and passed them up. TRhey always get stuck in my teeth too much.

ANd while we are on the subject of yellow things not tasting banana-y, I ate some Runts today(the Wonka fruit shaped ones) I too hate banana, so I throw those yellow ones away.

Well, some Oompa Loompa must have been nodding off on smack, cause I ate two green ones, and they tasted like the fucking banana death plaugue. I could have fucking killed that damn Wonka. Not just one mis-flavored green one, but TWO! Now myh Runt eating for the rest of the season will be tainted by the thought of Zartan-like Runts hiding in my snacksize bag, just waiting for me to feel safe…

I always thought the X in X-Entertainment meant Generation X. Huh.

Chestnuts roasted by trajeal @ 10/16/2004 7:51 AM

Yeah, I always have to tell people it’s not porn, but it doesn’t bother me. I usually just call it X-E because I’m too lazy to do otherwise.
And Emily, I think you’re cool. I, myself, am a vegetarian. And if you read this website, I don’t think anyone here has a problem with your "cool factor."

A couple of good death scenes that come to mind are the scene in Halloween II where Michael Myers grabs that one nurse, and dunks her repeatedly into the overheated hydrotherapy pool, so she comes out with bloody bursting blisters all over her upper body, and the one from Friday the 13th part II, where the guy in the wheelchair takes a machete to the head and falls down an outdoor staircase.

Oh, and let’s not forget that part from the orginal Dawn of The Dead, where a shotgun blast made one guy’s head explode! Best random death ever!

Chestnuts roasted by Number 5 @ 10/16/2004 12:05 PM

Wait… what’s wrong with wearing hemp?

Good to know there are other vegans reading X-E, Emily!

Chestnuts roasted by VeganMike @ 10/16/2004 12:39 PM

Everyone I tell thinks it’s a porn site too.

And where’re the updates Matt? Burnt out?

Chestnuts roasted by AbraxasZugzwang @ 10/16/2004 1:32 PM

I noticed that "nick or treat" was brought up in other article. Did anyone else notice in those "nick or treat" commercials that the kids said the phrase real fast and sounded like something very offensive?

Chestnuts roasted by kite @ 10/16/2004 2:01 PM

Abraxablahblah: Nope, just been a crazy busy week at work. I didn’t get home until midnight and had to be in Brooklyn at 8 AM, and this is with a family emergency sprinkled in the mix.

We’ll be all caught up by the time the weekend ends, though. And next week’s entries are nowhere near as whatevaaa as this week’s were.

X-Entertainment, X-Factor, X the Unknown, X-Girlfriend, Malcom X, Chemical X, X-Chromasome, X-President, Weapon X, X-orcist, Ham and X, X Marks the Spot, X-ican Hayride, X-Ray, Generation X, Degeneration X, X Me No Questions, and the ever-popular King’s X. But, as everyone knows, the X stands for "Quality!"

Don’t forget X-Men and Xtina.

My best friend is a vegan. Sometimes. She’s in NY now so it’s not as tough on her since she has access to lots of vegan food.

I’ve heard about the many problems she’s had trying to get the nutrition she needs through vegan food. Not to long ago I described to her what veganism means to me:

"If life were a gladitorial sport, and you could be armed with the weapon of your choice, I imagine your decision would go something like this:

‘We have a nice rapid-fire crossbow here.’

‘No.’

‘And how about this lovely broadsword?’

‘No.’

‘Stick with a fucking crack in it?’

‘WHERE DO I SIGN?!’"

Nah, I kid, I kid. I’m planning to move to New York after I graduate (to be closer to this same "friend", nonetheless…). I figure since I’m there I’ll try out the vegan lifestyle. I’m a carnivore, but it’s always bothered me (I usually do a Native American-type thing before I eat meat, thanking the animal for the sacrifice).
