Eternal Youth

Monday, October 15th, 2007

Our very own little Annie is all grown up. Or not, as the case may be. But she’s gone and started her very own irreverent pop culture blog which we recommend you read religiously and learn from, because, well, Annie’s just so much more with it than you are. And probably us too.

Mooning Manga

As you’ve probably picked up by now, we here at Culture Warrior are firmly dedicated to the unfolding drama of Joel Gardner, the merry mooner [aptly titled Assgate- or should it be A$$CATgate!?], not least of all because the spunky lil guy is my very own lil brother!

You see, growing up in our rowdy household, Joel often found it a personal delight [as the resident trouble-maker] to moon various family members, presumably in order to garner a strong reaction and/or test our brotherly love. Thus, it seemed that the Moon Rover Event was an original, signature Joel Gardner kind of reaction in the wake of Karl Rove’s presence.

But was it original? Not so! As the BBC would tell us, it seems that young Mr. Patrick Devine was given a suspended sentence and 200 guinea fine for mooning a Senegalese governor whilst volunteering abroad. While Devine’s cheeky [ha! HA!] actions were more of the prankster variety rather than an act of protest, it’s disappointing to know that it’s all been done. Looks like A$$CAT will have to find some new original protest strategies. I’m sure he’ll have a VERY difficult time with that, eh, little bro?

I like mashups.

It’s true! I do! Thus, in the spirit of avoiding my paper on chemical weapons(come on man, I have all night to write it!), allow me to point you in the direction of a mashup my friend Ben recently showed me:

Life changing, no? Correct Answer: YES.

Aside from being my favorite single of a FANTASTIC PEE-PANTS-AMAZING ALBUM, this exemplifies most of my wildest dreams: rainbow-clad dancers, snappy warehouse choreography, but most notably blue sequin one-piece.

Yes, PLEASE!!

Total Eclipse of MY Heart:

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

This is something I’ve been saving for ages, but since the weather is improving everyone’s moods [and hormone levels, HOLY CRAP!], let us elevate your mood a little more with this little gem. The Music Vid for Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart”, to be exact. You already know and love the song, but have you seen the video? If you haven’t you should, because it’s the most brilliant thing probably ever made in music television. You can thank our friends Dustin and Timmy for this cinematic discovery.
