shy? socially awkward? facebook t shirt is here to help

May 30th, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in adventure, design, news, store

hey party people. its a rough world for single guys/gals out there (at least i hear it is). its hard meeting members of the opposite sex in real life. i mean, why go out and do it in real life when you can just jump onto myspace or facebook and poke/stalk to your hearts content? you stalking pokers know who you are.

dont worry. angry ninja is here to lend a helping hand in your going out adventure escapades. freeze up when trying to introduce yourself to members of the opposite sex? more comfortable meeting people on online or on facebook? pick up one of these shirts and let them do all the work for you.

with this shirt, your hot prospect will know exactly what youre looking for - better than having a wingman or wing-dog (cant find clip of this one).

note that the words “ninja” and “lady” are can be changed. just click “customize”, “edit text”, and type in your own name/whatever you want to be known as. you can even add some text boxes to customize the check boxes. go ahead, check “random play.” you know you want to.

after all, it would kind of be pointless for you to introduce yourself to you hot prospect as “ninja.” seriously, who (besides me) does that? available for both guys and ladies.

side note on the zazzle store. some of you may not know this, but i leave all of my shirts fully customizable on the store. this means that you can take one of my designs, put it on a mens/womens/kids shirt dark or light, and change all of the text. you can even choose the shirt material, 100% cotton, vintage shirt, heavy duty, etc. the shirts that i have predesigned on the webstore are just a simple guide to what the shirts could look like.

currently playing - music from commercials

May 29th, 2008 | 4 Comments | Posted in music, tv

lately, there has been some great music in commercials. to me, the music seems to be more memorable than the products being sold. thats probably a problem, as companies probably dont want viewers thinking,

damn that song playing right now during this commercial is awesome. i better go on the internet and find out who the artist is so that i can download their music on itunes.

the first clip is called the last thing on your mind by lights. where have you heard this? probably while watching the nba playoffs on tnt/espn. its the soundtrack to the new old navy neon nights campaign. i cant get this song out of my head. their sound reminds me of imogen heap from frou frou. i know, not the manliest sounding song, but its damn catchy. hopefully old navy sells millions of halter tops with this campaign.

the next song has been out a while, from one of my “watch out for” bands: silversun pickups. the song is lazy eye from their last album carnavas. its used in this chevy malibu assembly line commercial. its nice to see that the band is getting national exposure, albeit via a commercial. will it make me go buy a chevy malibu? probably not. will it make you go buy some silversun pickups songs? maybe. you should pick up carnavas. its a solid album.

the last song that has recently caught my attention via commercial is funeral by band of horses. its the soundtrack used in the slightly older ford edge spot. the song has a very haunting moving melody, reminiscent of something that they would use in an episode of the oc, which by the way, had the best soundtrack of any tv show in recent memory. it took me a while to remember what car the commercial was trying to sell. i just had a picture in my head of the girl looking up through the moonroof. again, i probably wont buy a ford focus, i mean ford edge.

moral of the story: i like songs in car commercials, but they dont make me want to buy the cars.

we need super mario brothers technology. now!

May 28th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in design, gaming, news, store

i usually carpool with lucy for work. shes in hawaii this week. gas prices are extremely high. i am not pleased.

no carpool + high gas prices = sad + angry ninja

back in the day, i remember playing super mario brothers and ducking into pipes that would magically transport the player to different worlds. this was in the 1980s. why havent we invented warp zone pipes yet? seriously whats the hold up? lets get on this people!

warp zone pipe - more mpg.

pizza + omelette = awesome brinner

May 27th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in food, news, sports, tv

last night was pizza night. when that happens, i usually have a bunch of toppings left over. while surveying the fridge tonight, i had a revelation: i love pizza. i love omelettes. i have leftover pizza toppings. time to make a pizza omelette.

follow these simple instructions to make your own awesome brinner. prep time: approx 25 minutes.

ingredients needed:

  1. 2 eggs
  2. 1/4 green pepper (chopped)
  3. 1/4 red onion (chopped)
  4. 7-9 slices of pepperoni
  5. 2 sliced mushrooms
  6. handful of spinach
  7. shredded mozzarella (to taste)
  8. tater tots (however many you think you can eat)

directions:

  1. preheat the oven for the tater tots. while the oven is heating, chop up your onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
  2. beat eggs in a bowl.
  3. youll have a few minutes here. turn on tv and catch up on the nba playoffs.
  4. after the oven has heated, place the tater tots on a baking tray and insert in oven. these should take about 20 minutes.
  5. when there are 10-12 minutes left until the tots are done, sauté the ingredients you prepared in the first step.
  6. when the onions begin to turn translucent, add the spinach and the pepperoni. there should be about 6 minutes left until the tots are done.
  7. when spinach and pepperoni look ready, add the eggs. flip when necessary.
  8. top with mozerella and ketchup if desired. add tots on the side.
  9. plate and garnish.
  10. grab a fork and enjoy!

if you followed the directions, you should come up with something that looks kinda like the image below.

ps. it aint brinner without potatoes. also, derek fisher never gets called for fouls at the end of games. not tonight, not ever.
