"These two words, nerd and geek, are frequently used interchangeably. However, this does a great disservice to all nerds and geeks who wear the badge of their respective anti-social lifestyle choice with pride. For this reason I feel that it is of the utmost importance that we correctly define the two terms.
Geek

A geek can best be defined as one who maintains an excessive fascination with a single thing or collection of things. I use the more general term thing only because there is a wide range of fascinations available which may qualified as geeky. Some have asserted that the object of obsession must be one that is not considered to be socially acceptable or commonly observed from the majority of inhabitants of any give society."

I was on Total Request Live at one time...

Nah, wasn't on stage like some of my counterparts.  I definitely didn't have the clout to be on it at this time.  I remember this day because I was just wandering around NYC looking for something to eat because I was definitely slummin' on funds. I saw the line by the MTV building and figured, I'll go there and see whats up.  I like to collect an assortment of eccentric looking hoodies, and the one I had on in particular was white with a lot of funky designs on it.  The MTV people said I couldn't wear it because of the lights and the cameras, so I was freezing in that air-conditioned studio in a short sleeve t-shirt for 2 hours watching Mariah Carey and Ashanti doing interviews.  You couldn't even go to the bathroom during that thing! I don't know how these kids do it. I would've been the odd one walking across the cameras with the "I'm about to burst" face.  Luckily, some crazed fan of MC managed to snag the video of the show and put it on Youtube.  Some of my friends hit me up hours later to tell me they saw me and was dying laughing at the randomness (I do kind of stand out in this crowd, don't I?). 

Carlton had an interesting childhood....

Before "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", Alfonso Ribeiro had a different kind of hustle...

This took less than $100 to make

Spotted at the homie Jabari's blog...Apparently this guy re-did the opening sequence of "A Goofy Movie" in real-time scene by scene.   I don't want to hear any person talking about they can't do something because of minimal resources.  This guy did this with a few friends and a lot of imagination.

Check it out

Aren't you excited for this???

Best believe that when this movie comes out, I'll be one of the first people in line ready to laugh myself to sleep...and be awake to tell you what happened. Usually I'm interested in remakes of older films because it gives a new spin on an existing story. I understand some people's gripes that they would rather have an original film instead of butchering a classic, but no idea is that original. It has to stem from life or our personal imaginations. In order to form imaginations, it has to be based somewhat on life experiences. So how can it "really" be original if its based on something else?

I don't know if that makes sense, but it sounded really good as I'm typing this. Haha!



But anyway, not only are they going to remake "Nightmare On Elm Street" to be released in the next few months, they're also working on the remake to "Child's Play" to be more scarier and less comedic than those God awful sequels. The point of the remake is to focus more on Charles Lee Ray, as opposed to the infamous doll. That's gonna be fire. I would love to see Chucky shank a little kid than hide back in his box, but somehow I feel a human version of him doing the same thing while practicing voodoo would make it enjoyable.

My type of comedy...

I'm a huge fan of dark humor and terrible horror movies.  I'm one of those people that goes into a movie theater with a friend (or my older sister) and watch a horror movie and just laugh throughout the entire thing.  It can be ridiculously evil and crazy, but I would love every minute of it.  It's the type of reality-based fantasy that lets me keep my creative psyche on point. If you ever gone to a movie and laughed at something inappropriate/scary, you're my kind of person. In my DVD collection, I have things like Saw 1 and 2, the original Nightmare On Elm Street, Freddy Vs. Jason, The Hills Have Eyes, Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, and countless other films.  Even in my videogaming days, I've had violent pieces of work like Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, Tekken, Mortal Kombat, etc.


Example: Here's a short film that my sister and I love to watch.  It's called "Sunday's Game"
