Foamy's Voting for Humans... Wait... What?!

Yeah, I'm not kidding... Foamy just had an episode where Foamy is actually showing some love for the human race. Granted it's sarcastic and raging love, but it is love nonetheless. And it's way more love than I'm generally inclined to show to my fellow man and woman at large. I will give him the utter ridiculousness that occurs when it comes between donating to poor children and starving animals. People tend to choose the animals over the children, yet honestly, I still can't find myself caring that much. The utter stupidity of the parents of the starving child deters any kind of affection I might have had for the child. People, if you can't even feed yourself, then for the love of the gods keep your legs closed, keep your dick in your pants, and remain abstinent! Being a misanthrope, I have way more affection for animals than I do for people. It's a question of would I rather deal with an animal that relies entirely on instinct, or a human that is capable of intellectual thought but refuses to even entertain the idea? Animal wins every time... Sorry Foamy, for the first time I disagree with you...

Black Friday... A Goth's Worst Nightmare

Now I'm not going to lie, the first time I ever heard the words Black Friday, I thought it was some kind of scary movie event (Thanksgiving is still fair game for horror film release potential). But then I discovered it was the day both my mother and I avoid like it was a horde of rats carrying the Black Plague on steroids. So far the only time I've had the misfortune to venture out on this day was when I was working a couple years ago. I will have the same misfortune tomorrow... Now if you are not really comprehending my total and utter disdain for this massive sale that happens all over the country, then I can easily deduce that you are not an anti-social goth like myself. On Black Friday, no one who has any sort of problem with or fear of crowds need stand in a line waiting for a ticket to get into Best Buy first. There are way too many people going way too nuts over crap that is still way too expensive. This is the night that the true nutcases come out of their shells to try and score on some items that will undoubtedly return to the store if you don't mob the delivery truck first. (Yes, this is going to turn into a long rant, but that is what is called for in this situation) I'm actually sitting here and waiting for the first police report of someone being trampled or severely injured on this Black Friday. Fights break out, people are run over, tons of merchandise get stolen (whether it be from stores or off of other people), and there's just all out chaos. The fact that stores are opening their doors earlier and earlier every year is doing nothing to help this either. In my area alone places like Toys R'Us are opening at 9 p.m. tonight... Yeah, that's what I said... TONIGHT. Walmart's waiting a whole hour and a half later to start with their deals and most other places are opening at midnight. Seriously... WHO THE HELL GOES SHOPPING AT MIDNIGHT?! Now, I will willingly admit to being a little crazy and random, but the people who do this every year without fail scare me. I mean stuff like this...


Yeah... Two minutes of that and my homicidal urges to kill everyone that speaks within a twenty foot radius of me would be going nuts and probably will be tomorrow when I'm dragged from my room and forced to report for work. If you are going out tomorrow; drive safe, don't steal, be nice, and you're crazy. Enjoy your turkeys for now!

New Evanescence Album


So even I was skeptical about the new Evanescence album (self-entitled) because let's face it, every single band that you encounter is going to have a flop album. It's completely unavoidable and Evanescence seemed about due for it... Holy hell was I ever WRONG. This newest album is completely kick-ass! There's a definite 80's metal thing going on here and I love it. The 80's was the best decade for any kind of modern music, flat-out. Evanescence is slowly but surely heading into a heavier melody-driven path, and they're doing it really well. Now the last album, The Open Door, was a bit more on the lighter side, especially when you compare it to their first album. Now their first album didn't have quite as much variety as the second but they seem to be balancing everything out really well on this third album. Don't believe me? Just go and have a good listen to the very first song on there called "What You Want," if you're mind isn't blown once and for all for this band then there is no further hope for you. Not to mention in the music video you blatantly see Amy Lee headbanging and she's got some wicked makeup going for her. Just take a look...

This Episode is Made of Genius

Say what you want about Foamy and his creator Mathers, this episode is made entirely of genius. After being in a shit mood all day, this newest episode got me to laugh out loud so hard I'm pretty sure I made my mother jump. And at last we start to see some of the old Foamy crew, Pilz-E is now on board as is just as insane to gets drugs in his head as fast and as frequently as possible. Why Germaine decided to willingly take him to the clinic to get his prescriptions filled I have no idea, but it makes for one of the most hilarious lines I've ever heard Pilz-E say... "Holy chicken suit of bloody condom use!" You have to watch the episode to get it, so WATCH IT DAMMIT!

Character Spotlight: Mandy

I utterly love this animated child. Mandy is one of my heroes as far as animated characters go. Reason being is because she doesn't take crap from anyone and, more often than not, inspires fear in any and all who dare to cross her path. Long story short, Mandy is friends with a total dunce of a kid named Billy. Well one day, Billy decides its a good idea to celebrate his hamster's birthday (yeah, a dunce) when the Grim Reaper shows up to take the soul of the poor little creature. Now he's expecting Billy and Mandy to be all scared and start screaming. Uh... nope, sorry Grim, don't think so. Instead Mandy bets the hamster's soul in a game. Unfortunately for Grim, he loses and winds up getting stuck with Billy and Mandy. Now Mandy's approach to being Grim's friend is to mostly order him to to her chores and threaten to maim and/or injure him if he doesn't obey her. On the rare occasion that you see Mandy smile, the universe tears itself apart. Now personally, I find that utterly hilarious to watch her struggle with trying something as simple as smiling, not to mention saying "please." She's completely morbid and awesome to watch. I mean, how could you not love a 10-year-old who orders around the Grim Reaper like its nothing?

Nor'Easter Puts a Damper on Foamy's Plans

So due to the lovely weather that has been occurring (yes that's sarcasm) the Foamy episodes have been slightly delayed. But J Mather's managed to find a way to give us a new toon in spite of all the hardship! This is why we love this man. So enjoy the newest Foamy, where even Germaine and Foamy must suffer the horrible repercussions of the weather...

Metal Meyhem 2012


The officials of the Rockstar Metal Mayhem have just recently announced that they will have the band list for Mayhem 2012 posted by January! Personally, I'm going to be dying until that list comes out and I get to see which awesome bands they pick this time around to grace the stages of the Post Gazette Pavilion (no, I am never going to call it First Niagara Pavilion for as long as I live, I flat-out refuse to). I'm really hoping that they can manage to get Slipknot back for a second round, but I'm not keeping my hopes really high. Nonetheless, I'll be burning with anticipation until that day arrives and I see who's playing. Here's the link again so you all can suffer the horrible wait with me. Thankfully, they've also released the official tour dates and Mayhem's going to be hitting the 'Burgh on the 28th of July. This makes me ecstatic personally, because if I'm lucky I'll be working an office job by then, and the 28th falls on a Saturday. No need to request that day off and miss any money! Go and see when Mayhem's going to hit a town near you.
