I take back everything I just said.

THEY'RE HERE.

Fuck you, USPS

Your website said that my DCUC figures from Matt should have gotten here today, BUT THEY DIDN'T.

And the guy on the phone said all the packages they had to deliver today were gone and should have been delivered.

SO WHO FUCKED UP?!

Need a little help from my friends...

I don't know if any of you collect Mattel's DCUC, but there's an awesome Joker figure out now. There's also a Man-Bat and Power girl I want, in the same series.

Unfortunately, that series is a Walmart exclusive, which, coupled with Mattel's usual crap distribution means I probably won't find him without help.

So that's where you guys come in. Next time you're in Walmart, could you PLEASE check and see if they have this series, and if so, if they have either of those three figure, and if they do, please pick one up for me. I will gladly pay for it, plus a reasonable finder's fee.

Obviously, Joker is the most important and the figure I want the most, then Man-Bat, then Power Girl.

PLZ HALP MEH.

In other news, thanks to Hal from the OAFE forums, I will soon have an Energon Cruellock.

For fuck's sake.

Note: This was originally posted on my deviantArt page.

There needs to be a "Just plain shitty art" and/or "Incredibly stupid and unoriginal OC" options when you report stuff on [deviantArt].

Seriously, I've seen some crappy OCs, but one "artist's" (The "artist" [I cannot say that and keep a straight face] shall remain unnamed) is practically fucking offensive.

She has one that is named Hotshot. Yeah. HOTSHOT. Don't recognize the name? Go ask David Willis [link] . Said OC is a female Optimus.
Another one is a female TFA Sentinel Prime. Named Lance. Y'know, like Lance Armstrong, who is (Though he lacks one of his testicles) a guy. Because LANCE IS A MALE NAME.

But that's nowhere near the worst. The worst is some horrid Prowl/Lockdown bastard lovechild (I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP). I could list the many other things wrong with it, but for my sanity, and yours, I won't.

It also doesn't help that the art is horrible, and REEKS of MS Paint. Though, I did see the "artist" (Heh) talk about using Photoshop, which makes her shit even more unbelievably horrible.

Sometimes I hate [deviantArt].

Awesome chicken recipe I spontaneously created

Right, well, tonight I was planning on barbecuing some chicken. Buuuut I didn't have enough charcoal. So, I did the next best thing and baked it! Of course, plain baked chicken is blah. So, I threw some random spices on the chicken. It came out perfect. So I figured I'd share the recipe:

Chicken. Any cut, and however much you want to make.
Garlic pepper seasoning. Not entirely sure what's in this, but I assume it's garlic and some sort of pepper. Just use a little bit of this.
Garlic powder. I'd use a good bit of this. It's good stuff.
Emeril's "Cajun Blast". Once again I don't know what's in this, but you may be able to find it in the grocery store. How much you use depends on how spicy you want it.
Black pepper. Use fresh ground, and only use a small amount.
Cayenne (Red) pepper. How much of this you use depends on how spicy you want it.

Okay, first, preheat the oven to about 425. Next, put a bit of butter in the dish/pan you'll be cooking the chicken in. When it's soft enough, spread it around a bit.
Secondly, sprinkle the ingredients (in the order listed) on the chicken and rub it in to spread it evenly. Put the chicken in whatever you're cooking it in.
Finally, Bake it for about 45 minutes. Watch it to make sure you don't over or undercook it.

This goes well with garlic toast and rice (I had some sort of roasted garlic rice). Yeah, I love garlic.

Whale Wars

I've recently begun watching Whale Wars on Animal Planet (Watching it now). It's rather exciting, and often heart wrenching. Now, I'm quite an animal lover. I've volunteered at the Zoo here for a few years, I often make donations to the Humane Society and World Wildlife Fund (THEY JUST RAN INTO ONE OF THE WHALING SHIPS. They hit them with the anchor, so the ship didn't take much damage).

As an animal lover, I do support research on animals, so we can learn more about them. BUT I don't think animals should be killed for research. If you're going to use the animal for human, or other animal, consumption, that's usually fine. But therein is the problem with the Japanese "research" whaling fleet. The by products of the whales are sold on the open market, mainly to be eaten. However, pretty much all the whales being killed are (OH SHIT. They're taking on water!) endangered, and therefore SHOULDN'T BE KILLED AT ALL. PERIOD.

Now, I know that most Japanese food is based around the sea, and they've been using whale meat as food for years. But they need to be willing to give that up. They have PLENTY of other food sources.

However, I do support the whaling done by Native Americans in the Padific Northwest. See, the difference there is that the various Native American tribes only take what they need, which is a VERY low number of whales, they use everything from the whales, and they support whale conservation, as the whales are part of their way of life, and deeply revered part of their tradition.

The Japanese whalers, however, can take up to TEN WHALES A DAY. And they'll be on the water, hunting for whales, for weeks or even months. Each whale can earn them about $100,000 or more. That can mean one million dollars A DAY for the fleet. With that much money available, I HIGHLY doubt they want the whales for research.

Anyways, I've been considering joining the Sea Shepherds for at least one of their voyages after college. I would like to ask you, my loyal friends and readers, to support the Sea Shepherds (They're fixing the hole, where the sea gets in, and stops their ship from wandering, where it will gooooo... Sorry. Beatles moment there). And, of course, you should start watching this wonderful show.
