Fright Bites and a new Halloween Jukebox!

I have a feeling you're going to want what today's Halloween Countdown entry is about. Made by Snak King, it's "Fright Bites," the only tortilla chips in history shaped and colored like bats, pumpkins and ghosts! They're better in concept than execution, but even a shittily executed bat-shaped tortilla chip is welcomed.

I have a friend who chooses to go by the name "Tummi" whenever I mention him on the site. I'm not sure why; he's never expressed any major love for Disney's Gummi Bears. But, as he's been a big help behind the scenes, I'll call him what he wants.

Aside from handling a lot of the backstage encoding, Tummi is responsible for the holiday jukeboxes. This year, he's revitalized the Halloween Jukebox with a new order, new songs and new hidden messages meant to inspire you to kill people. Click here to give it a listen! New songs include everything from the Count Duckula theme to MC Hammer rappin' philosophical about the Addams Family. There was only so much he could do with the pitiful amount of real Halloween songs available, but I think it's pretty rockin. Thank you TUMMI. The new juke is also linked in all of the 2006 Countdown entries for easy access.

Ahh, love the countdown so far! Hehe, the chips are pretty interesting. I’ll haveta keep an eye out. But I soooo love the jukebox too. Great songs. Am I the only one who absolutely adores the Headless Horseman song?

BTW, hehe does that mean you’re going to do a review for Count Duckula, Matt?^_^ Hehe, it was such a great show, though I had forgotten how overly brittish-y it was hehe, though that made it sort of cooler.

Those chips are totally Jesus in Chip form. Worship them!

I’ll never forget my favorite Halloween program ever. It was a Disney hour-or-so-long collection of all kinds of spooky stuff, from the genuinely spooky (The Chernobyl scene from Fantasia) to the funny (Donald Duck’s cousins always get a laugh out of me).

Everyday I chastise myself for having recorded over my VHS of it with Gremlins… mostly just because I accidently recorded over Gremlins too.

thank ya Spoodles for correcting me I haven’t seen the movie in a while (we used to have a tape as a kid but I think someone borrowed it and never returned it)

And yes brianfax you doing the cabbage patch in the shower is creepy. Even though I think anyone doing that would be creepy.

That’s right…Baba O’Riley, they did mention the title quite a few times during the show (plus a new song that has a computer-produced intro similar to it which is pretty sweet, but doesn’t compare to the live guitar)

And after seeing him in person, I’m getting on the bandwagon with LemurCat that Roger Daltry can definately kick Raine Maida’s ass.

Oh Invader Norbert. *pat**pat* I had my first fic MSTed at 14 and a page on Portal of Evil at 15, so I’ve been dealing with fuckheads on the internet since day 1.

I’ve never gotten anything I’ve written on Fark, even that time I wrote about KFC bowls and a month later they posted some LA Times article your had to subscribe for and that had no images on it. :P No one online appreciates me. Except Robert Berry. :(

The yeti, how dare you steal my job!!!

Chestnuts roasted by the Meh teh @ 09/14/2006 8:36 PM

Kick Raine Maida’s ass? I think not. Relinquish your pain unto him, kinda like with Bono, except you really have faith in Raine. and don’t find him to be a pompous ass.

Raine has just about the only justified messiah complex I have ever seen. All Hail Our Lady Peace.

This is where kb beats MY ass, right?

Chestnuts roasted by Knegative @ 09/14/2006 9:04 PM

Is Our Lady Peace the band that did Superman’s Dead? If that’s so,then I guess Raine Meada is the name of the guy I have to kick in the balls.

yeah, as a matter of fact it is. Wanna do something about it? Hands down, my vote for best voice ever in the history of mankind. Adam Duritz comes in a close second. Gerard Way, third.

Hahaha, hate me, hate me, hate me!!!

goob: i really don’t see what’s so wrong with my naked, wet body doing the cabbage patch in my shower. i mean, c’mon. that’s something to be cherished atleast.

Cause I’m a real fruit bat and I’m ready to rap,
I’m ready to snap,
I suffer from cyanica and chapped lips,
And shockage,
Like a rocket in my pocket and a need to scratch,
But now I can’t stop it,
I’m Batty…

0_o what was this song about, again?

I was like 9 or 10 or something when Ferngully came out and I was embarrassed over watching something with the Batty Rap in it even BACK THEN. Jeez… I liked the movie alright though. Nausicaa and the Valley of the Wind was a much better example of a universally appealing animated flick that tackles enviromental issues. they really arent comparable I know… just had to mention it.

Don Bluth made ferngully. He worked for disney for a bit before he went on his own and made “Secret of Nimh” He also made my fave cartoon movie of all time…American Tail !!!

He also made ROck a Doodle, Land Before time, all dogs go to heaven, Anastasia,

“there are no cats in america and the streets are made of chee-eese. “

“somebody’s watching me” is by rockwell, not michael jackson.

Jazzy — Franz Liszt was a 19th century Hungarian composer. Not my favorite, as I prefer the Russian composers from when I went through my Russophile stage in college. As for my “histrionics”, I actually don’t blame you for not knowing the proper title of Baba O’Riley. I blame your parents. They probably didn’t expose you to proper rock ‘n roll well. Yes, that’s a joke. And I’m glad you’ve heard of Bob Dylan. The world is a better place for it.

brianfax — Happy Early Birthday, and that’s a helluva present to get. Enjoy.

K-Neg — Roger Daltry is a Rock God. Raine Maida is a second-tier Canadian artist who never really caught on in the States. Sorry, dude, truth hurts. I liked OLP though. Good hard rock with a thoughtful edge. Which is prolly why it didn’t really catch on in the States. And with no Roger Daltry there would be no Raine Maida. Quadraphenia. I say no more.

Allie — Rockwell was the son of Michael Jackson’s producer, Berry Gordy. Which explains why Michael — in his pre-nutbag height of fame — was caught providing “guest vocals” on such a track. Jermaine’s vocals are completely understand able. But Michael’s? Still makes me wonder what Berry had on him.

My “Frans List”:

Fran Drescher
Fran from Kukla, Fran, and Ollie
Farmer Fran

By the by, the bestest voice in history is James Brown. He don’t even have to sing real words to be understood.

Don’t forget Fran Tarkingon, former NFL Quarterback and Hai Karate spokesman.

Am I the only one wondering wathe the hell that just was?
