God....PETA Really Sucks It Dry.
So Carl's Jr and Hardees (The classiest of fast food establishments) have decided to use pork and eggs from animals not cruely confined. Um...call me Ishmail but does it really fucking matter what KIND OF CAGES ANIMALS ARE KEPT IN WHEN THEY ARE GOING IN PEOPLES BELLIES ANY-FUCKING-WAY?! I mean...come the hell on! I love animals (In the healthy way. Except for collies because they are HAWT) and think cruelty isnt cool unless you are Michael Vick. Then it is awesome. The fact is these animals arent being taken to see "Homeward Bound" they are GOING TO BE EATEN.
I can see these rules for pet stores and sex shops, but not for a place where the animals are being set up for consumption. It just seems....expensive. It doesnt make my breakfast sandwich taste ANY BETTER if the chicken was kept in a pen with wire doors. Especially when I am having that chickens embryo fried up on a Sourdough Club Breakfast Sandwich. Now that is good eatin! PETA needs to shut the fuck up. I am for the ethical treatment of animals, just not for my breakfast. Beaten animals make for tender meat! Its science!
I am KIDDING.
Geez, grow a set and get some surgery on that funny bone of yours. Oh, and Michael Vick's new name is "Towelie" Sad. just sad. Besides, cats OWN dogs. Even from the cradle:
Cats rule, dogs drool. Doesnt make up for Vick being a fucktard, though.
On another note....COMCAST STILL FUCKING SUCKS. Internet just crashed. Fuck them in their stupid heads. I mean STILL fuck them in their stupid heads.
Because No One Demanded It....
It's like "You Got Served" meets "Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights" with the reggaeton flavor! Toss in some "Step Up" and "8 Mile" and you have the sexy, hip hop dance hit of the fall movie season! Oh, and I LOVES ME SOME of Kat DeLuna. F2T hawtness right there. I will see YOU at the theater!
One last thing, a post up on Saturday or Sunday (Not counting the Video Countdown. It has to be before my first day at work and after the busy next two days I have) but first I have an announcement. Even though Pirates vs. Ninjas: Attack on Zombie Island (and its sequel, Escape from Dragon Fjord) fell through despite the efforts of Zach and Ted (thanks for the work, btw) I have decided to record my first song since the Grammy winning “CON-PHUNK-TAY-SHUN” in 1997. So coming soon to a radio near you to celebrate my 10 year anniversary of the eight most important moment of my life...
Gimmie, Gimmie (Dat Cocoa Puff) featuring D-Rock! And T-Money Grizzle on the remix!
The Cocoa Puff will be the dance craze of 2008. It will make the Soulja Boy and the Spongebob look like the damn Tootsie Roll. And we all know, nuh-uh thats old. I will have it up soon once I have the staples...like lyrics. Got the hook set, though. Seeing as how Soulja Boy stole "Tha Spyderman" from David, I need to get on this soon before someone steals my idea. By the way, FUCK YOU SOULJA BOY! Dance stealing asshole. That is all for now. I have to drive to Pueblo for some god awful reason tomorrow and Denver AFTER THAT but thems the breaks if you want to be ballin. Besides, I have to bankroll my album somehow. Anyway, check out Code Monkeys:
Monkeys humping heads? Priceless. It’s the only good show on G4, minus the Olivia Munn show. Not sure what it is called, but I love her. Until Friday, peace out

YOU DONT HAVE TIME TO MAKE A PROFILE! PRESS "A"!
First off, let me state this before all you bros and Halo nerds lose your shit. I own all three Halo games. I played through Halo and played Halo 2 abouyt 4 hours in before I got fucking bored with it. The first game was good but the second, no matter how pretty and explosion filled (Shit, sounds like a good porn. ZING!) the game was above average, not the greatest game of all time like everyone hailed it. Three words: God of War. Or Resident Evil 4. Fuck you, that game plays CIRCLES around Halo 2. Anyway, I just played Halo 3 at David’s house (And his limited edition version wasn’t scratched. Lucky him) and all I can say in the about three hours I had hands on with the game….
ITS OKAY.
I hated the barrage of clips and commercials for Halo 3 because I knew it was going to be more of the fucking same. Bungie is like EA Games with Madden. Repackage, add some moreplayers and modes and presto brand new game. At least Madden still has Michael Vick, who is scary than Master Chief…to dogs at least. What, too soon? Anyway, with all the hype and press about this game (Including G4 covering the launch like there were only seven available but there are more Halo 3 games than assault weapons in Cambodia) I know everyone is going to look at it and go “THAT DEM DARE CHUPACABRA DONE WENT AND GONE BOOM!” so my words are on deaf ears. But I for one am sick of hype for three games a year (Usually Halo, a Final Fantasy game and Madden) and all three are disappointing, save for the occasional Final Fantasy. Now I am not saying Halo 3 is BAD, I am saying I am sick of the hype. From the Mountain Dew to the refinancing of home loans, Halo 3 was EVERYWHERE and for no real good reason. It is on another planet, you are trying to tell me people drink Halo on fucking Venus? Bullshit. Tie ins are good if they are relevant, but in this case it actually made me not want to get my pre-order.
Overall, Halo 3 is a 7 out of 10. I know it will get perfect score everywhere because Microsoft owns everyones soul but it would be unwarranted. God of War II, Metroid (Wii) and BioShock are better games and a lot less hyped/annoying. Expect to see Halo 3 everywhere until Christmas, expect to see about 4 Oscar nods and at least 300 kids named Master Chief. God…I’m gonna go play Resident Evil 4. Zombies are coming up the hill right now!

It's a Wonderlic Life...Again.
I AM TOTALLY UNDERUSED
I mean if this test means jack shit (Which I don’t fully believe it does. I put very little stock in it but seeing as how I have taken it no less than seven times companies must) but once again, I did pretty good. I ranted about this about a year and a half ago before I started working at Qwest. I was pissed because I was told I was OVER-FUCKING-QUALIFIED because I got a 42 on the Wonderlic test (The max is a 50 so judge for yourself) and aced the other portions. That and they told me the pay and once again I slipped up and said “What am I, homeless?” and I REALLY need to not do that. I got a 40 yesterday and a 37 today (It was 9am. Sue me) and the recruiter looked at me like I was some sort of freak. Is being unable to take a test the norm?
My main issue is the fact that this test shows nothing. The questions relate to jackshit about anything any job I have ever done actually requires. Also add in the fact that I usually skip and/or guess all the questions that have to do with math and you see this test is utterly and completely worthless. I mean seriously; I ace all of the non-math questions and skip or BS the math questions and I get higher than the average score for a fucking CHEMIST?! Even worse is that adding this up with my IQ (which ranged from 127-137 when I took the tests from High School to college) my total Intelligence Quotient, or IQ totals up to a score of 146, which is supposedly “Highly Gifted” (BULLSHIT! I can barely tie my shoes!). Now that mean that I am pretty much able to read directions and not shoot myself in the face but still. There are people that do that all the time and make more than I do or ever have. To that I say bullshit.
If people were given jobs and paid based on their IQ, the workforce would be screwed up. I mean look at the fact that I have friends with degrees working at Best Buy and Comcast and are making the same as people that are marginal in intelligence and are only qualified for wiping their own ass (which they still do marginally). Last I checked, Communism is bad. So why pay all people the same when their qualifications are not? Peyton Manning makes more than Vince Young (I believe) because he is GOOD. Paying all players the same defeats the want to achieve because you know that no matter how hard you work and no matter how smart you are you will still make the same amount as those that can’t find South Carolina on a map. I know South Carolina sucks but you get the idea.
I just had to get that out. Seeing as how standardized testing got me shit and all a college degree has gotten me is a nifity tassle to hang my NDK passes on, my anger is a tad bit high. But it is what it is. Time to kick it old school!
Anyone remember that one? Worst song ever! Peace out, ya’ll!
Chachi Out
Sushi, Ron Jeremy and Aqua Timez? Pretty Good Week!
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
We start with a J-Pop legend on their way out…
20. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #17, One week at #1)
After a stint at number one, one of the biggest bands in J-Rock history is on their way out. It has been a busy half year for Hyde and the boys with a bevy of live performances and TWO videos (more on that) for their fans viewing pleasure. Album soon? We can dream…
19. Yui - Jam (New Entry)
….OF MORE YUI! Okay, I have a confession: women in hoodies is hot to me. Its my weakness. You know what else is my weakness? Yui’s fine ass. All I can say if that as long as she puts out videos, my love for her will never die. More Yui!
18. L`Arc~en~Ciel – My Heart Dreams A Dream (New Entry)
More of The Arc?! This day just gets better and better! I actually like this video a tad bit more than “SEVENTH HEAVEN” because of Hyde and all of his manliness is in full effect. Can you say “animal magnetism?”
17. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 14)
Despite not reaching the top spot this time out, AI is still holding on to the Top 20 this week. I have said it once and I will say it again. I WANT ME AN AI ALBUM RIGHT NOW. I am through playing around, I needs my fix. Give me some Zeebra while you are at it.
16. Kanye West feat. T-Pain - GoodLife (Last Week #19)
THE GORILLA HAS BEEN SLAYED! Kanye totally CRUSHED 50 Cent in their battle for hip hop supremacy and all I can say is that I cant be any happier about it. I despise Fiddy and I am glad he got not only beaten by Kanye, but he damn near got beat by Kenny Chesney. Sweet justice. Oh, and ‘Ye has two videos on the Top 20 this week along with Yui and L`Arc~en~Ciel. Good Life and good stuff.
15. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #10, Plunge of the Week)
Where is the damn Hearts Grow?! It has been almost four months and I have heard little to nothing on the new video front. This is not cool! I love this song and I needs me some more!
14. Tenjo Chiki (TSZX) – Pirhrana (Last Week #12)
Oh no, the momentum has stalled a bit for Tenjo Chiki. Must mean Hinoi Team is coming back :) Just kidding, still think they’s sexy but other videos kick more ass right now…
13. Common feat Lily Allen – Driving Me Wild (Last Week #16)
….Like this one. All I can say is that the more Common the better. Not only that, thanks to Nicole this Lily Allen person is growing on me. Not too shabby, as her voice is like Dido minus the Sarah McLaughlin vibe to it. Good stuff on both sides.
12. Yui – Love & Truth (Last Week #13)
In only a YEAR, Yui has tied UVERworld with the most videos on the Top 20 with five. With two going to #1 (Rolling Star and CHE.R.RY) and one at #2 for a month (My Generation) she is up there with UGK and John Legend in the battle for the Chachi for the Artist of the Year. Big stuff from Yui.
11. Chamillionare – Hip Hop Police (Last Week #9)
After a stint in the Top 10, Chamillionare falls outside this week. I just picked up “Ultimate Victory” and he stayed true, the cursing and “n-word” usage are at a minimum. And it actually sounds pretty damn good. No one will buy it because people are stupid but to each their own. Still, great video albeit it fell this week. Onto the Top 10!
10. UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #7, Seven weeks at #1)
The kings of the underground are holding on to the Top 10 with all they have this week as they fall three spots. The biggest video of the year is still hanging in there even with nothing new from either artist on the horizon. They really arent capitalizing on this video because this song was one of the years best and the video was novel. Eh, thems the breaks.
9. Soulja Boy – Crank That [Soulja Boy] (Last Week #15, Biggest Mover)
Superman that ho! Soulja Boy makes a HUGE leap this week, cranking that Robocop up six spots this week and into the Top 10! I am actually anticipating this album because…I don’t know. But I am.
8. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #5, One week at #1)
With another video on the way up, Kanye’s #1 video falls three more spots this week and out of the Top 5. Once again, I am happy he beat 50 Cent because hopefully he will get the idea that we are tired of his shitty work. Probably NOT, but it was worth it.
7. Mihimaru GT – Gazen Yeah! (Last Week #11)
Yay! This will be the new ringtone…once I get off my ass and do it. This video is fucking great and there better be a new album soon. I remember they had a Greatest Hits album a few months ago but this should signal some new and awesome work coming soon. I love the fall!
6. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #8)
More yummy ladies? Man, this is a good ass week. Sowelu leads the pack upward, falling outside of the Top 5. This single is badass and the video is well…look at it. It’s fricking hot as hell and you know it. The more Sowelu, the less I kill. You can thank her later.
5. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #6)
Well isnt THIS familiar? Nelly Furtado has her fourth Top 5 video as she makes a bid for the top spot. Although it was almost NINE months ago since she was this high (January) it is better late than never. Oh, and she is hot. Thought I should mention that one more time. Just yummy.
4. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #2)
After two weeks as runner up, TM could not lead them to the promised land for the second time in 2007. Even still, they came hella close but had to sit behind the juggernaught that is Aqua Timez. We are down to three so who pushed Abingdon Boys School out of the runner up spot?
3. UVERworld - Shaka Beach~Laka Laka La~ (Last Week #4)
UVERworld is going for history! Five videos, five in the Top 3 including three number one videos. It has been a slow year for The ‘World (Last seen with Zero No Kotae in Feburary) but they are coming on strong to end the year. But who kept them from #2? Well, it is a familiar foe…
2. John Legend – Stereo (Last Week #3)
John Legend is trying to get his FOURTH number one video as well and has played the Boston Celtics to UVERworld’s Detroit Pistons for the second time. This video isnt played much on TV (sans VH1 Soul which showed it…twice?) but that cant hold back its awesomeness. I love this song and you will love it too. But the love isnt enough to put it at number one…
1. Aqua Timez - Alones (Last Week #1, Three weeks at #1)
…Because to be at number one you have to RAWK! And Aqua Timez does it in spades. This video holds the top spot for the third straight week even with UVERworld, John Legend and Nelly Furtado nipping below. Now THAT is how you show your power, holding off all challengers to the throne. Bleach rules your face!
Well, that is all this week! Can Aqua Timez hold off the lions below and stay at #1 for a full month? Ir will John Legend or UVERworld set the record with their fourth #1 video? Don’t forget the rest, you never know what will happen! Tune in next Friday to see who has the most awesome video in the world!
Chachi Out!

Another Birthday, Another Day Closer To My Eventual Death In A Battle With A Ninja on a Fire Breathing Polar Bear...
CHACHI’S BIRTHDAY OMNIBUS!!!
Let’s get this party started right!
How was NDK this year?
Well, NDK this year had its moments. The big issue I had was that…I saw the same shit last year. There was nothing new in the vendor fair. Shit, everything was in the same fucking spots for Christ’s sake. I can only stand so much Inuyasha, Bleach and Naruto before even I have enough and flip out. Oh, and can yaoi please go away? Dude on dude manga has become mainstream (they sell that shit in Best Buy and Borders) so it is no longer taboo. Besides, gay is the new Black. And by “black” I mean negros.
The guests were the same as the last three years although they did bring back the Taiko drummers this year. Thankfully they left Piano Squall’s gay ass back in Gay Town because if there is one thing this years Con didn’t need, it was more gay. The karaoke wasn’t as fun as last year (although adding David to the mix added more funny quips. And the dialog between Nolan and myself about putting women in boxes went over well with some people) and they wouldn’t let us be a team this time. GO TEAM VENTURE! Eh, we liked it. The J-pop Dance party…had no fucking J-pop and NO FUCKING DANCING. I swear, anime fans piss me off. More on that later.
The second day was lackluster as the AMV contest was bleh. You cant really top “Dangeresque” and “Bring Me My Bride” but still:
OR DID I?! Priceless. This year, the only real good ones were “Code Monkey” and “Pirating Movies via One Piece”. The rest were rather boring (especially drama which needs to be an award given out before the fucking ceremony, Grammy style) although I do appreciate the work all the contestants put into the videos. After a long break, we went to the Costume/Cosplay Competition which was….average. Nothing mindblowing like last year (Mega Man, Voltron, the Bleach Cosplay sketch at the end was sidesplitting) but not really BAD. Just not memorable. Except for my quips of “Wait…Dumbledor is dead?!” and “So….most of this is terrible”. Oh, and big ups to the dude in front that laughed at my Malice Mizer reference about the girls that dressed up as Dir En Grey. I’m sorry, but they aren’t as good as everyone thinks IMHO.
Lastly, after a long break Zach, Joe (who is Mormon. W00T!) and I decided to have a few drinks. By a few, I mean a fucking lot. I mean I was ready to rave it out by the time I was finished. So to end the night was the rave (which is what the J-Pop Dance party ended up being because anime fans have no fucking rhythm) and it wasn’t bad. I stood around talking for the first 10 minutes or so when I just asked a girl to dance and said “We might as well not have fun together”. After that, it was pretty fun until some assholes took me back to the boys and wouldn’t let me stay with my friends and their feel good candy. Amy was going to have my love child and name it Skyyyyyy….
Overall, this NDK wasn’t as good as last years (Limbo with a zanpaktou is fucking awesome no matter how you slice it. HAHAHAHAHAHA! Slice…) but it was a tad better than the first one I attended in 2005. I feel bad for Joe and David (who went to a Con for their first times) because they had NO IDEA what they were in for. Dudes dressed as chicks, the “aroma de nerd” and overall geek-out factor probably means they wont return. I enjoyed myself and got a new Karaoke Kon. All in all, not bad, not good.
NDK 2007 receives…
6.5 out of 10 Stars
(Yuna saved NK as she gave it 3 points by herself. That girl is fucking FINE. She is smooth....and sexy....and FIY-YI-YINE! And legal!)
Let’s keep the bus moving!
Why did you quit your job?
Well, there comes a point where you have to hit the reset button when you play a game to a point where there is no real way to beat the game or even advance any further (Anyone that has played RPG where you need an artifact to beat a boss and you didn’t get it knows what I mean). I had to hit reset or at least go back to my last save. Not like the moves you made were bad, but you could have taken a bit more time and formulated a strategy to get to a better place in the game to defeat the Materia Keeper. I hope that explains it. That and I can’t be a cube monkey anymore.
People all over the blog, join hands! Hop on the Chachi Bus!
Why do you hate Adult Swim/Cartoon Network anime?
Okay, I had this discussion at Borders and the comic book store a few times over the last month or so leading up to NDK. Those of you that watched Naruto in its subtitled form (from Dattebayo or others) know that the voices of the characters sound like adults even though they are children. You know that the intro and ending themes of the show are some of the greatest out there (Akeboshi, FLOW, Hearts Grow, Sambomaster and others) and are in some cases a drawing point to the show. You are fully aware the battles are violent and that the fights are actually well done (Unlike Gruntfest Z):
So why in the Cartoon Network/dubbed version do the kids sound like Gilbert Godfried with a concussion, the music is replaced by stock bullshit and the fight look like schoolyard slapfests?
I don’t like Cartoon Network because they don’t know how to re-package anime for shit. The fact is that shows are BUTCHERED by Cartoon Network because they try to make ALL anime for kids. It isn’t for fucking kids. Pokemon, yes. Card Captor Sakura, HELLS TO THE NO. It is for young adults and adults. I am not talking about hentai, yuri or yaoi (ugh to both…) when I say that. I am talking about One Piece, Naruto, Eureka Seven, Bleach and pretty much all the shows on Cartoon Network. Now, Adult Swim is a different animal. The music is untouched for Blood+ (Which I will argue has maybe the best opening/ending themes EVER, although the show is kind of bland), Bleach and Eureka Seven (Halcali, bitches! WHAT?!) but the voices are shit. Flat out shit. I have yet to EVER hear a good dub for an anime (Slayers has its moments and Kare Kano is TOLERABLE when it comes to the female voice actors. The men suck ass, yaoi style) and with the popularity rising you figure they would do more to curb the crappy acting. It really makes people not watch the show and go to fansubs. Which brings me to the next stop on the bus…
Do you think fansubbing is bad for anime?
What is irony? Irony is when you are watching the Bleach: Memories of Nobody fansub when they are having a panel discussion at NDK about how fansubbing is killing the anime industry. Yeah, I fucking rule. The fact is that fansubbing is revitalizing the industry for non-casual anime watchers. Die-hard fans (which I am on the lower segment of) watch fansubs because we don’t want to hear the vocal rape of our favorite characters on cable (or in shittier cases NETWORK) television. Also, since shows are licensed before being finished (Bleach, Naruto, Death Note, Darker Than Black, etc) many people want to watch them until the end and prefer to buy the DVD’s of they have the option of subtitles. Add in the fact that some shows are OVER ONE HUNDRED EPISODES BEHIND THE JAPANESE COUNTERPART and watching fansubs becomes the only option to stay current with your favorite shows.
Overall, fansubbing actually helps anime because it creates buzz about certain shows. I wouldn’t know about Bleach had Zach not told me to get back into it. Had I not heard about Death Note on message boards I wouldn’t have watched it. Fansubbing can help the anime world if they don’t turn into vaginas about it.
Let’s keep on movin, baby!
Does J-Pop have it’s place at an ANIME convention?
Hmm. I had this discussion in the dealer room (I went back for a badass wall scroll when I went back to my car on the first day) when I was looking through the music CD’s and only found anime soundtracks. Now much like The Rembrandts “I’ll Be There For You”is as much a part of “Friends” as Ross & Rachel, I believe that the openings of Bleach are just as important as the rivalry between Ichigo and Grimmjaw. With that being said, I think (THIS IS MY OPINION) that J-Pop DOES have a place at an anime convention. I will say 40% of anime fans don’t listen to J-Pop and that is sad because it plays a large part to the success of an anime. Look at some of the names associated with opening/closing themes in anime:
• L’Arc~en~Ciel
• Kumi Koda
• Orange Range
• FLOW
• Yui
• Maximum the Hormone
• Nana Kitade
• Ayumi Hamasaki
• Namie Amuro
• High and Mighty Color
• BoA
• Nightmare
• Home Made Kazoku
• Ai Otsuka
• Antic Cafe
• Aqua Timez
• Duran Duran (Speedgrapger, bitches!)
These are some of the biggest names in J-Pop and they have ALL done at least one opening/closing theme for a successful anime. So with that being said, at least the songs they performed should be available for purchase. Not only that, most people only know the staples of the anime openings and closings….which is pretty much Neon Genesis Evangelion. Which while it is good, it isnt great. I personally think that Duvet from Serial Experiments Lain is the best of all time:
Love that song. Either way, I think that more J-Pop themed events at NDK would have helped. A “Name That Tune” anime style would have rocked the box (between Zach, Nolan and I we would have it on LOCKDOWN) and if the J-Pop dance party would have played Bi (Who is Korean but is good stuff) or Namie Amuro it would have been awesome. Yet I know nerds cant dance but they did alright last year. Long story short, J-pop has its place at an anime convention because J-pop is a part of anime much like soundtracks were part of movies in the 80s. Remember Top Gun, Footloose and Purple Rain? I rest my case.
The bus is winding down to its last stop….
Fiddy or ‘Ye (50 Cent or Kanye West)
Well, all I can say is that I liked “Graduation”. It broke the theme from his last two albums (the college saga) but still shows some growth. Also shows some regression, meaning this was not as good as “College Dropout” but it was better than “Late Registration”. With that being said, 50 pretty much released every fucking song on his album as a single because all of them sucked (If you liked “I Get Money” then you need to be shot in the fucking face. I don’t care if you don’t like what I said, you are a fucking moron and need to be eliminated) so I can say that from what I heard his album odds are sucked. I will download a copy and give a better idea, but aside from the beat for “Ayo Technology” I could do without Curtis ever again. Hip hop shooting, where are ye? With that being said I give a full edge to Kanye West because despite his faults of being a total fucktard the man can make an album that is listenable. Here is to him maintaining the lead over 50 Cent and finally shutting him up once and for all. He will do what sadly bullets couldn’t. Man…I am kind of a dick. Eh, its how I roll. My blog, my fucking rules.
And that is the end of today’s Omnibus! Man, that was long. Well, I guess that is all for now. Happy birthday to me and whatnot. You know who gave me a birthday present? YUI!
I….LOVE…..YOU! Almost as much as I love that Tifa from NDK. Damn age laws. Japan would understand. I AM KIDDING! Party on everyone! Its my birf’day!
I will be going out in a bit. Anyone that wants to roll out (if you live in the area I mean) let me know. SLUMBER PAR-TAAAAY!
By the way, this was more coincidence than anything else buy I have just hit 400 posts on Blogger! That is all original material with a few breaks in between but an average of about a post every two days which is good for me. I want to thank all the people who visit the site regularly because I only do this site for the peeps. Here is to hopefully 400 more! Or not, I’m not big on the whole “OMG! 513 POSTS!!!1!11” type of action but it’s nice to know that people read my anger and don’t think it’s COMPLETELY offensive. Thank you again, I truly appreciate your visits and occasional comments.
Chachi Out.

Happy Birthday To Me....
Either way, it was pretty damn bad ass. Too many spaces of nothing (which was ample time to get a few drinks) but what was attended was good. Who knew anime nerds could PAR-TAY? Oh, and F2T Rikku....I love you. She was kickin' like Chuck Norris on a Wednesday. Too bad thinking about her gets me 4 years in jail. I AM KIDDING!
And I got a Hitsugaya keychain, bitches! Post up tonight or tomorrow about the con and shit that pisses me off. Non-bathers....I am talking to you. How in the FUCK do you show up to a convention ALREADY SMELLING LIKE A PRISON? Wash your ass!
Oh, one last thing. I HATE KIOSKS AT THE MALL! Seriously. Zach said it best:
"People that work in kiosks dont have souls"
I mean its bad enough you are at the bottom of the mall food chain below the pretzel maker and the chumpstain workers at the pet stores. At least make an ATTEMPT to have a sales pitch. I mean seriously, the wanton beating of your stupid asses should be promoted and rewarded.
In closing: I dont want a fucking Helio your worthless bitch and as for the fucker at the cell phone kiosks asking you if you want a Razr (the shittiest phone since the cup and string) you can take your Razr, slit your wrists and then shove it up your ass. At least you got out in an interesting way. Bleeding to death from your ass and wrists at the same time is a novel way to die and may get people to give a shit about you for a few minutes, even in laughter.
WHY IN THE FUCK IS METALOCALYPSE STILL ON THE AIR?! Gawd....dammit. Oh, on another note I am another year older and another year madder. Happy birthday to me. I need a fucking shot of Tuaca to get through this day....

Nerds Night Out!
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
We start with a video on its way out…
20. Gym Class Heroes – Clothes Off (Last Week #16)
Gym Class Heroes holds on to the Top 20 for another week! Their album isnt all too bad and I am looking forward to them coming out here on tour. At least I hope to see them anyway. If Rebelde isnt coming and Denver is full of Mexicans (no offense) there is no way GCH is coming and Denver has just as many bros. Bros love them.
19. Kanye West feat. T-Pain - GoodLife (New Entry)
This will be the ONLY FUCKING TIME you see T-Pain on here. I really like this song (second favorite track on the album, actually) and the video is once again simple in its complexity. You know, even though there were video models they werent the sole focus of the video. Take note Curtis. Kanye does rap (almost) right.
18. Common – The People (Last Week #9, Plunge of the Week)
Speaking of rap…ouch. Common falls the most spots on this Countdown in over five months as he plummets a huge nine spots with this video. He has another video on here but this is tough seeing as how this video came close to taking down UGK & Outkast not a month ago.
17. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #14, One week at #1)
Album coming soon! My god an album coming soon! Did you hear that? That was my mulitple orgasam echoing across the cosmos.
16. Common feat Lily Allen – Driving Me Wild (Last Week #18)
The second of Common’s videos this week moves up two spots this week. I am liking the simplicity and not booty shaking of hip hop videos in 2007. Between Talib Kweli’s “Hot Thing” (which is a great video, albeit taking from the HP commercials) and Kanye’s videos I am liking the turn away from the bling blong. Lets see how mainstream America feels about Black men not acting stupid.
15. Soulja Boy – Crank That [Soulja Boy] (Last Week #20)
Superman that hooooooooo! Soulja Boy moves up a big five spots this week with the biggest dance craze since “Da Butt”! Okay….admission time. I have been practicing this dance almost every day. Leave me alone! I need to make friends! I am totally getting his album in October.
14. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 11)
Speaking of albums. WHERE IN THE HELL IS AI’S ALBUM! Eh, patience makes the heart grow fonder. This video falls a bit more this week after a short stay in the Top 10. This video wasn’t as good as “I Wanna Know” but few things are.
13. Yui – Love & Truth (Last Week #15)
Well, isnt this familiar? Yui is moving back up the Countdown, looking for her fourth Top 10 video THIS YEAR. Now that is big pimping. I wonder what this song is from because there are a lot of clips in the video that look to be from a movie. Little help here?
12. Tenjo Chiki (TSZX) – Pirhrana (Last Week #13)
The saucy ladies of Tenjo Chiki move up another spot this week and seem to be slowing down a tad. With Yui, Mihimaru GT (the lead singer is my new lady love) and Nelly Furtado all with new videos they may be out matched. Not to deny their Korean hotness, though. Shit…Rick, I need to listen to you more.
11. Mihimaru GT – Gazen Yeah! (Last Week #17, Biggest Mover)
Officially my new favortite song. This song gives me the same vibe as Bennie K’s “Oasis” and I consider that to be the greatest J-pop song ever. The dancing in the video is peppy and it is a rather funny video. Add a happy little song and you have some great fall time listening!
10. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #7)
We are into the Top 10 and Hearts Grown continues their slow descent down the Countdown this week. This was a great summertime jam but now with “Gazen yeah” out it has lost its place. Even still, the video is happy times and the song is great. Almost made me watch Powerpuff Girls Z. ALMOST.
9. Chamillionare – Hip Hop Police (Last Week #10)
So Chamillionare moves up one more spot this week with arguable the funniest video of the year. Funny in a sad way because hip hop police are real and they fucking suck. Ask Teq about that shit. It’s poppycock and they know it.
8. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #12)
Sowelu in the Top 10? Can life GET ANY BETTER? The combined might of Sowelu, EXILE and DOBERMAN INC are looking to take the top spot with this hawt ass video. I am curious who’s album this is going to be on or whose album is even coming out first? Odds are Sowelu since EXILE had “Evolution” last year. To that all I can say is YES!
7. UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #5, Seven weeks at #1)
For the first time since MAY, UGK is out of the Top 5. Now THAT is dominance of the Countdown. I havent heard anything on the new video front from UGK and Outkast will get back to work…whenever. I need be another “Bombs Over Baghdad”!
6. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #9)
Sexy Furtado (Her new name) moves up three more spots this week. She is just short of her fourth Top 5 video and from this point on, the upper echelon looks mighty familiar. This is the first of SIX straight videos from artists that have at least one #1 video!
5. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #3, One week at #1)
Kanye falls two more spots this week after a long trek to #1. However, he shouldn’t feel too bad. It looks as if his album is going to outsell 50 Cent (so far it is reportedly 417,000 to 350,000 or something) but he has a second video on the Countdown to boot. Only Kanye could make me tolerate T-Pain. Maybe Namie Amuro. Mmmm….
4. UVERworld - Shaka Beach~Laka Laka La~ (Last Week #6)
UVERworld has their record breaking FIFTH (Or FIF) Top 5 video! They are making a bid for the Group of the Year Chachi Award (Along with Maroon 5, Abindon Boys School and nobodyknows+ as frontrunners) even though 2007 is nowhere near as UVERiffic as 2006 was. Man, if it wasn’t for me totally screwing myself over last year 2006 would have been awesome. We are down to three…
3. John Legend – Stereo (Last Week #4)
Slowly but surely, John Legend is moving up the Countdown! He has his fourth Top 3 video and is looking to be the first artist to go four-for-four and have his 4th #1 video. Now THAT is Legendary. The former champion parade continues at #2….
2. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #2)
Abingdon Boys School holds on tight to the #2 position this week as it tries to get their second #1 video. The last five artists have a total of 10 # 1 videos between them at a combined 36 weeks at the top. Now THAT is true dominance. Well, with ABS at #2 the #1 spot is occupied by….
1. Aqua Timez - Alones (Last Week #1, Two weeks at #1)
Aqua Timez extends their first bid at the top for a second week! With Bleach now following the manga, this video may be here for a little bit. Besides, it was a LONG WAIT to get this single and even longer to get the video so Aqua Timez may take a small rest here. Congratulations for this week!
That is all for now! Tune in next week to see if Aqua Timez can hold on for a third week at #1! Or will Abingdon Boys School go two-for-two and get the top spot? Or will John Legend go a record breaking four-for-four and take the crown? Tune in next Friday to find out!
I will be off to NDK after I pick up David from work so I will have an update probably on Sunday. Until I return, stay up peeps.

Better Late Than Punched In Le Nards....
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
We start off this week with a video that has secretly been my favorite for about a month and I had to let it out!
20. Soulja Boy – Crank That [Soulja Boy] (New Entry)
Yoooooooou! It is the hottest song of the fall coming at you! I have been secretly listening to this song for about two months and I am all about cranking it! Not masterbation, pervs. I mean cranking that Soulja Boy! Check the dance, fools!
19. Foxxi MisQ feat. Miss Monday – Party Booty Shake (Last Week #16)
It is a sad day in Chachiville as it looks like the Summer of Foxxi has come to an end. After a stay at #2 the second of Foxxi MisQ’s videos looks to be on its way out. It has been a very good year for the front runner for Best New Artist and I hope they give me something new real soon.
18. Common feat Lily Allen – Driving Me Wild (New Entry)
Chi-town, stand up! In 3007 the Windy City is representing with Kanye, Young Berg and Common all giving us hits (Okay…I like “Sexy Lady” and I am sorry) and now Common has his second video on the Top 20 Countdown this year! It is actually one of my favorite songs from “Finding Forever” and one of the best hip hop songs out there. And Lily Allen is cool.
17. Mihimaru GT – Gazen Yeah! (Last Week #20)
So this video is creepy. Not going to lie to you, the singer is hot but that hair is NOT doing it for me. Luckily there is cool dancing and this song has a “Birthday Eve” vibe to it. You know how much I loves me some of The Koda.
16. Gym Class Heroes – Clothes Off (Last Week #13)
GCH falls another two spots this week after cracking the Top 10. Great song, fun video but the summer is ending and its fall baby! Time to come with the good stuff!
15. Yui – Love & Truth (Last Week #18)
Speaking of good stuff…Yui has become a woman now. No longer is the the cute teenager that gave me “Life” and “Rolling Star”. She is a full fledged hottie that I can rock out or give me some good guitar slow action. Bottom line….I love me some of the Yui. Mmmmm.
14. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #10, One week at #1)
I just got their new single on Wednesday and all I can say is that their new song may even be better than this one. And this song was AWESOME. The video shows Hyde in all his hotness and shows he is even hotter than the savannah. Yeah, that’s true.
13. Tenjo Chiki (TSZX) – Pirhrana (Last Week #17)
God. I LOVE THIS DAMN VIDEO. I sweaer if Hinoi Team comes out looking like these girls with their next song I will so have a problem because Tenjo Chiki is HAWT. Sexy dancing plus sexy ladies equals a sexy party!
12. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #14)
So much sexy, so little time! Sowelu leads EXILE and DOBERMAN INC upward and just outside of the Top 10! It would be all three’s first Top 10 video which is a shock with EXILE having “Lover’s Again” earlier this year. But hey, Sowelu can do that for you.
11. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 9)
So AI falls two more spots this week. Has anyone heard word about a new album yet? It has been a few years and I NEEDS ME SOME MORE AI! Even still, this video is big band fun.
10. Chamillionare – Hip Hop Police (Last Week #11)
We have made it into the Top 10 and we begin with drama! Chamillionare has his first ever Top 10 video and a good one it is! I am rather excited about hearing “Ultimate Victory” because he is supposed to be cutting down on the cursing and n-words. Could hip hop be a-chaning?
9. Common – The People (Last Week #8)
Common is making a bid for Artist of the Year, even though this video didn’t quite take the #1 spot from UGK. With another video on here it is a testament to his awesomeness how this video only fell one spot this week.
8. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #12)
Four Top 10 videos for Nelly Furtado! This is not my favorite video from her this year (“Say It Right” is, hands down) but I do like this song a lot more. Oh, and Nelly Furtado has striking eyes. Just…striking.
7. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #4)
After peaking at #2 a few weeks agi, Hearts Grow falls three spots this week with this video. Here is hoping for something new soon, this group is really starting to grow on me.
6. UVERworld - Shaka Beach~Laka Laka La~ (Last Week #7)
UVERworld is slowly taking their fifth Top 20 video to the top. A second single means hopefully a new album soon so they can give me a good sequel to “Timeless” which was indeed….timeless.
5. UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #2, Seven weeks at #1)
After holding the top spot for almost two months, UGK and Outkast fall another three spots but stay in the Top 5. This is officially (IMHO) the best video of the year hands down. Unless another video blows the lid off, UGK are the video kings as well!
4. John Legend – Stereo (Last Week #5)
John Legend and UVERworld are vying to be the first with FOUR #1 videos and this week John moves closer to his goal. The fourth video off last years’ Album of the Year is movie up and once again it is good stuff.
3. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #1, One week at #1)
After one week at the Top, Kanye has been humbled and falls two spots to #3! With “Graduation” coming out next week and my distain for 50 Cent at an all time low (Now it has just become apathy) I am really looking forwar to see what he has. If the download is any indication, its not bad.
2. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #3)
ABS is making some noise! They move one spot to #2 in hopes that they get their secong straight #1 video with this one. Although TM isnt a new artist, ABS is up there with Foxxi MisQ and Daughtry in the running for Best New Artist. Can they take the throne again? Well, if the new #1 is any indication…
1. Aqua Timez - Alones [Biggest Mover] (Last Week #6, One week at #1)
…Then prepare for another LOOOOOOONG reign! After ony one month, Aqua Timez kicks Kanye to the curb and takes the #1 spot! The only artist to make it to #1 faster was nobodyknows+ and we know what video they did and the amount of ass it kicked. Not only that, Bleach is FINALLY BACK TO THE MANGA so the show is rocking the box again after 13 episodes plus of filler. All in all it is a good year for the Timez! All hail the new #1 video!
Well, that is all for this week! The Countdown returns to Friday next week (my god…5am is the suckiest time of day) so tune in to see if Aqua Timez can hold #1 for another week! Or will Abingdon Boys School take them down for their second run as champs? Or will John Legend live up to his last name and break the record for most #1 videos? See you next Friday!

Working For The Weekend...For Pennies.
Chachi Top 20 Video Countdown!
We start off with a debut from a kick ass J-Pop duo!
20. Mihimaru GT – Gazen Yeah! (New Entry)
Yaaaay! This song is THIS CLOSE to being the new ringtone. I love this video and the live performance on CDTV is AWESOME! I have quietly been a fan of Mihimaru (I jam their Greatest Hits album constantly on the iPod) and this is a reason for the rest of you to become one as well.
19. Yui – My Generation (Last Week #17)
So…um….how can I put this. Just read the one above this one.
18. Yui – Love & Truth (New Entry)
FUCK YES! IT IS ABOUT TIME! You all know that my love for the Yui will never die and this video…yes. She has turned into a woman. Not that she wasn’t before bur you know now she is OFFICIALLY a woman even bu Japan standards! The video is awesome and the song is kick ass. Welcome back!
17. Tenjo Chiki (TSZX) – Pirhrana (Last Week #20)
Speaking of sexy ladies, it looks like the ladies of TSZX or whatever move up a big three spots with this video. I am not sure what is up with all the names but it really doesn’t matter to me all that much. This video is HAWT.
16. Foxxi MisQ feat. Miss Monday – Party Booty Shake (Last Week #12)
More hawt ladies! The Countdown is just full of them! Sadly, the ladies of Foxxi MisQ are falling four spots this week with a video that almost took the #1 spot about a month back. Here is a hope for a new video!
14. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #16)
Wow, life is getting GOOD. Yui, Foxxi Misq, Tenjo Chiki and now Sowelu? All I can say is YUMMY. This single is actually very good (With an interesting rendition of Earth, Wind and Fire’s “September”) and as you know…the video has Sowelu. So it is hot.
13. Gym Class Heroes – Clothes Off (Last Week #10)
After a suprisingly short run in the Top 10, Gym Class Heroes falls three spots this week. Their album is OKAY, just not what I was expecting. Still, I like this video because Vegas kicks ass. Too bad I cant go this year because I am fucking poor.
12. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #14)
Mo ladies, mo problems! This makes 7 female acts ALREADY and we arent even halfway through yet! Nelly is looking for her fourth Top 10 video and looks to be on a good track as I really like this one. I have liked the song since I bought the album so that is saying a lot.
11. Chamillionare – Hip Hop Police (Last Week #13)
With so much drama in the industry, its nice to see hip hop getting back to me. Cham moves up ever so close to the Top 10 and rightfully so. This video is pretty good (and funny) and now I am looking forward to his album.
10. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #8, One week at #1)
NEW HYDE! This song falls two more spots but all I can say is NEW L’ARC~EN~CIEL!!! Needless to say, it rocks your face. That is all.
9. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 7)
After looking like she was going to make some major moves upward, AI falls back two places. You know, with two videos I wonder if an album is coming soon? We saw how look it to Namie Amuro to give us “Play” so….we’ll see.
8. Common – The People (Last Week #4)
Common falls four more places this week with his latest video. I am hoping for a new video soon because he is on a roll right now. He is a front runner for the Chachi for Album of the Year so you know the album has some good stuff on it. Gimme more!
7. UVERworld - Shaka Beach~Laka Laka La~ (Last Week #9)
Speaking of good stuff, UVERworld is back! After “BUGRIGHT” I am hoping for another kickass album. The first video was “meh” (Endscape) but this one is toe tapping goodness. Can they make it to the top? We’ll see!
6. Aqua Timez - Alones (Last Week #11, Biggest Mover)
FUCK YES! This video makes another huge leap and is one step away from the Top 5! This song has been my favorite for a while and now this video is creeping up as my favorite to watch. It is the first time Aqua Timez has ever been on here but they are making a heck of a showing. On to the Top 5!
5. John Legend – Stereo (Last Week #6)
Well, John officially has his FOURTH video in the Top 5, tying UVERworld for the most ever! Now UVERworld is on his heels but can he get the elusive fourth #1 video that has eluded them? Now THAT is drama!
4. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #2)
After attempting to take the throne last week, Hearts Grow falls two spots this week. Nothing to be ashamed of, a lot of people failed to take the throne from UGK and Outkast and the fact they got that high is an accomplishment. Besides, I still listen to this song every day on the way to work. It makes me happy! We are down to three…
3. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #4)
Can TM and Company make it two for two? Abingdon Boys School moves up another spot into the Top 3 and has a daunting task ahead as the top two videos are veterans. However, they have been to the top of the mountain so they know what it takes. Can they do it against some stiff competition is the question. We are down to two and there is a shocker…
2. UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #1, Seven weeks at #1)
After more than a month and a half and #1 and more than two months in the Top 3, UGK and Outkast finally give up the throne. It was a LOOOOOOONG run and a dominant performance but in the end, all we can say is Sweet Jones. Now, we have a BRAND NEW #1 VIDEO!!!
1. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #3, One week at #1)
Well look who is at #1 for the first time ever! After coming close with Game and TERIYAKI BOYZ, Kanye West has finally captured the crown. Although he is nowhere near Jesus (Jesus is lame, I said it) he can sure make a good video. Here is hoping for “Graduation” being kickass! Say hello to our new King!
Well, that is all for now! “Balls of Fury” tonight and going out to PAR-TAY on Saturday. Gut check time next week for me, too. I will let you know why if you ask or get me drunk. Until next week, staty up peeps.
Chachi Out.

Raging Against The Machine? It's Crap-tastic!
As for "The Little Mermaid" it kicked the ass. The new songs were great, the set design was awesome and I would like to get me some of Ursella. Yeah she's like 40 but old habits die hard, dont they Kandice? And there were more Black people than you should shake a stick at! On stage I mean; I was the only one in the audience. Hell, even the USHERS where white. That was just whack.
Oh, and I am saying it now: Billy Ocean as Sebastian the Crab in the Broadway production. If they dont, they are missing out on a CASH COW. “Get Out Of My Dream, Get Into My Car” would work PERFECTLY:
I’m just saying. It would work. Oh, and as ballin as a trident is I am surprised Diddy doesn’t walk around with one. I would figure we are only one week away from “Diddy: King of the Ocean”. Now THAT’S ballin.
You know, something hit me near the end of the play. I am glad that musicals arent made much anymore because everyone under the age of 21 doesn’t know music. With that being said, I am fearing the day that the romantic section of a musical has a rousing rendition of “Smack That” by Akon. People are really that stupid and it scares me.
So the rumors about Comcast “throttling” the Internet for their subscribers CLAIMS to be false. Most of you know my secret job (Yeah, I suck) so I should be mum but as a USER of Bit Torrent I can say that SOMETHING is happening and to lie to me about it (as a COMSUMER) is bullshit. I lays it on the line, people.
The fact is this: unless it is in the terms of service are violatted in some way shape or form by using an excessive amount of bandwidth, which I am not sure is the case or not about hogging the bandwidth, capping internet is like saying you can only drink so much water in a month when you are alloted 10 gallons. Hear me out. If you have 6MB internet, you have the opportunity to download at 6MB a second and upload of about 384K a second (Slower than DSL, but DSL blows dolphin dick so there). NO QUESTIONS ASKED. I can’t say I only WATCH three of your fucking channels so only CHARGE ME for three fucking channels. No, I have to pay for a full tier of channels I don’t fucking watch just to get Cartoon Network, Comedy Central and Disney Channel. But Comcast can decide to throttle all Bittorent downloads because some are illegal? Fuck you, that’s like the fucking Patriot Act for computers. Some people are terrorists so you watch everyone? Fuck that. Here is what one ISP provider represntative stated:
“The fact is, P2P is (from my point of view) a plague - a cancer, that will consume all the bandwidth that I can provide. It’s an insatiable appetite.”, and another one stated: “P2P applications can cripple a network, they’re like leaches. Just because you pay 49.99 for a 1.5-3.0mbps connection doesn’t mean your entitled to use whatever protocols you wish on your ISP’s network without them provisioning it to make the network experience good for all users involved.”
It is another case of smiting all to punish some. I can’t download Bleach or Naruto: Shippuuden because YOU want to run phone calls over your pre-laid network? Tough shit. The fact is that you are not getting what you pay for if Comcast throttles bandwidth. A reader of Torrentfreak said:
“If you pay for an internet connection, that’s what you should get from your ISP — an internet connection. Not a connection that will let you browse the web and check email, but little else. If an ISP has issues with the amount of data a customer is transferring, then the ISP needs to address that issue with that customer, and not restrict every user in one class of traffic.”
If I don’t get my alloted bandwidth due to customer traffic that is fine. If I don’t get it because you are pretty much blocking my download/upload then Comcast is guilty of false advertisement. Spin it as “Customers don’t have free reign to download illegally and overuse bandwidth” but what you are really saying is “We arent giving you what you pay for because we are too chickenshit to stand up to those that are fucking it up for everyone else.” Sounds like good stuff. I don’t download a massive amount from BT, and yet when I try to download or seed my computer runs at a crawl if at all. Oh, and my internet needed to be rebooted AGAIN.
Needless to say, I am a tad bit pissed about people being fucked over. I am all against “the illegal downloading” but dicketry isnt the answer. We all download things. But we are not perfect…
He punched a baby, too! Those little fuckers are dangerous. A pack of six can kill a full grown man. It’s science. Eh, it is what it is with cable. You just have to take getting fucked up the ass or find someone else….to fuck you up the ass. Ass-fucking for everyone! On that note, I’m heading out. I think I have hit my ass-fucking quota until 2008.

Knowledge Is Key
So tonight I learned some things…
1. I am gay as hell. I decided to pass on football for Broadway. Albeit KICKASS Broadway (Litte Mermaid, fishes! Wow…that actually works this time) I am skipping out on booing the FUCK out of Brady Quinn and his Irish ass. Shiiiiiiiiiiit. Wh, at least I still have Sebastian T. Crab for comfort. Yeah, mon!
2. To all the ladies over 35 that hit on me at Eden tonight (It was three and…oy vey, I need Jesus) all I can say is this: Been there, done that and I don’t like the ending of the book. Sorry, I have to keep my sanity and I can’t be with a woman the same age as my mom. I mean…maybe once but not no more. Yellow rice, Rick. Never eats it. Greatest advice ever.
3. Also to the ladies (because tonight was an AWKWARD night for about an hour): If you have a man don’t grind on me. I don’t need to be that man in the club getting shot because you are a whore. Or because you need a tampon. See “Superbad” and you will understand.
4. I am a whore. I sacrificed all I believed in and drafted Peyton “Seabiscuit” Manning with my first selection in this years fantasy draft. I got the steal of the draft in Greg Olsen (rookie Tight End for the Chicago Bears) and an even BETTER steal in Deuce McCallister in the FOURTH ROUND. Man, people are drinking the Reggie Bush Kool-Aid hard-fucking-core. I have a good team this year, not like any of you care. Oh, and Hines Ward in the SIXTH round. Yeesh, no respect for the Bulldogs.
5. Oh, and Eden sucks. Too many niggers (Yes, I said it. You don’t like it then stop being one or stop fucking reading) and bros. And I hate both. Oh, and there were a lot of dumb women tonight. Which leads me to…
6. Women really LOVE “Get Low” by Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz. I mean like I love “Oasis” by Bennie K. Even the unedited version. Its funny to hear women say “Sweat drip from my balls” and “All them bitches crawl”. Just…like black people singing “Sweet Home Alabama”. Which they DID. Oy….I hate Colorado so fucking much.
7. Tuaca bombs: not shitty. I hate Tuaca and I DESPISE shots (Ugh….its the Goose or nothing for the kid) but it was okay. No mojito or brandy but it will do. God, I am one uppity fuck.
8. Women should not be allowed to drive. I am not the poster child of good driving, but talking to another car while driving at high speeds in a BUSINESS DISTRICT is fucking stupid. If Hillary loses it is your dumb ass fault. I saw female drivers nearly injure 4 people, not including the people I went with.I do better and have driven drunk every day from work and have for the last 7 years. It’s a skill.
9. Asian women are HAWT. There, I said it. Sue me if you must. To the Asian (Korean from what she could make out in her drunken stupor which was NOT HOT) girl that danced with (correction; ON) me against the wall, who pretty much used me and threw me away like a Denver running back…I love you. Normally I would cry “rape” like Jodie Foster in “The Accused” but no tonight. I was used…and I loved it. Man, I’m a whore….
10. Greatest interaction ever:
Me: Do you serve martinis?
Bartender: I can, no problem!
Other Dude: Can I get a Cosmo?
Me: Wow, that is rather…gay?
Random Woman: You got that right. That is the gayest thing I have ever heard and you see those two guys over by the DJ? They ARE gay and they were kissing.
You know what? I bought my second drink for a woman….ever (That wasn’t on a date with me. Rick knows the other one and has villified me for it. Rightfully so, too) because that was just way too fucking awesome to not give her some credit. See, sometimes a man isnt buying a drink to fuck you, ladies. Sometimes it’s because you are funny. Which is a rarity.
That is it for now. It is SO bedtime.

One Year And Counting, Fishes!
Chachi’s Top 20 Video Countdown!
We start off with some sexy…sexy ladies dancing for my K-Pop enjoyment…
20. Tenjo Chiki (TSZX) – Pirhrana (New Entry)
Yes. Yes. YES. YES. YES!! This is my new favorite video. I have been watching this (for the…dancing) video for a few weeks now and all I can say is DAAAAAAMN! These ladies are hawt like nobodys business. So needless to say…Foxxi MisQ has some competition.
19. Foxxi MisQ feat Zeebra – Luxury Ride (Last Week #17)
The ladies of Foxxi MisQ are on the verge of falling out of the Countdown after a VERY impressive run of two videos in the Top Five at the same time. I am still digging “Gloss” and…I am still digging me some Dem. She’s hawt.
18. FLOW - Answer (Last Week #15)
FLOW falls three places this week after a short stint on the Top 20. This video has fallen to the wayside with some big (AND I MEAN BIG) new videos out, this video slides down a bit. I still loves me some FLOW, though.
17. Yui – My Generation (Last Week #13)
Ahem. NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! NEW YUI! Hells yeah.
16. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #18)
So there are two versions of this video so far. Type “S” has a whole lot of Sowelu (The “S” is for SAUCY) and the “E” version which has a whole lot of EXILE. As cool as EXILE is, Sowelu is where the hell its at. Me loves me some of the ‘Lu.
15. Gackt – RETURNER ~Yami no Shuuen~ (Last Week #11)
Gackt falls another four spots this week with this epic. I am officially demanding some more Gackt and NOW. The man makes Zac Efron look like Zachary Taylor. Do some reading, I cant hold your hand.
14. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #16)
Mmmm, Nelly moves up two more spots this week with her new video. Nelly is looking for her fourth Top 3 video (“Promiscuous” and “Maneater” both hit #2 and “Say It Right” went to #1for three weeks earlier this year) and that would be a feat only you guessed it, UVERworld has achieved. They kind of run this.
13. Chamillionare – Hip Hop Police (Last Week #14)
Cham moves up another spot this week. He is part of the “Hip Hop Kind Of Doesn’t Suck” movement that has started recently. Between Kanye, Common, UGK and Talib Kweli (“Eardrum” is bad ass) I am no longer AS MAD as I was about three months ago.
12. Foxxi MisQ feat. Miss Monday – Party Booty Shake (Last Week #8)
Mo Foxxi Too bad they are on their way down because they have had a good year. If not for Abingdon Boys School and Daughty, they would be a shoo in for the Chachi Award for New Artist of the Year.
11. Aqua Timez - Alones (Last Week #19, Biggest Mover)
Bleach is going back to the manga! Ichigo vs. Grimmjaw Part Deux! Urahara cuts loose! Orihime wears tight clothes! It gets no better! Wait, it does. Aqua Timez is a step away from the Top 10! Can I get a ‘BANKAI?!” Hells yeah.
10. Gym Class Heroes – Clothes Off (Last Week #10)
Gym Class Heroes makes a stop this week at #10 for the second straight week. They have a new remix with Lil Wayne for “Viva La White Girl” which isnt all that bad. Lil Wayne has grown on me over the last 10 months or so, not gonna lie.
9. UVERworld - Shaka Beach~Laka Laka La~ (Last Week #12)
Yeah, you know it. The boys are back in the Top 10. Like we havent seen them up here before. Can they make it five for five in the Top Three? We will have to see!
8. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #4, One week at #1)
HYDE AND COMPANY ARE BACK! A new video is being downloaded as we speak and if is rocks (WHICH IT FUCKING WILL) it will be on here ASAP. Yeah, its all about the J-Rock.
7. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 7)
AI stands pat at #7 this week. Now we begin to get into the big players on the Countdown. Can AI crack the upper echelon? It has been over a year since she has been this high…
6. John Legend – Stereo (Last Week #9)
John Legend is BACK and is primed for another run at the top! I love this song and the video is growing on me. Seeing as “Once Again” won the Chachi Award for Album of the Year you kind of knew that this was going to be great.
5. Common – The People (Last Week #2)
Into the Top 5 and Common falls from #2. He could not topple the juggernaught that is UGK and Outkast. The People arent mad, though. His video is great and “Finding Forever” is AWESOME. Trust me, it is that damn good. Great run, though!
4. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #5)
TM and the crew are making their bid for the top spot! After hitting #1 with “Howling” which is the rockingest song of 2007 by far, they look to have this video follow suit. I am still waiting for the album! Onto the Top 3!
3. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #6)
Kanye has is second Top 3 video this year (Kanye hit #3 with Game with “Wouldn’t Get Far” earlier this year) and is looking higher this time out! I am trying to find when “Graduation” comes out but I see nothing. I am actually rather excited for this album. Also, the video isnt too shabby either. Better than “I Get Money.” Fuck 50. I’m right here…what do you want to do? I’m right here.
2. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #3)
They youngsters of Hearts Grow are officially they youngest people to make it this high on the Countdown! It has been a long trek but they have made it this far. They take the runner up spot and are looking to maybe…just maybe be video that knocks off the longest reigning #1 in over a year…
1.UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #1, Seven weeks at #1)
Seven weeks. This video has been at #1 for SEVEN WEEKS. That is almost unheard of. But Bun-B, Pimp C, Andre 3000 and Big Boi have not only conquered the mountain for 7 weeks but have been in the Top 3 for 10 weeks to boot, the longest EVER. Yes, this video is that damn good. And that is why it is at #1 for another week!
Well that is all for this week! Tune in next week to see if UGK and Outkast can set the record and hold on for their eight week! Or can Hearts Grown be the owners of the video that finally ends the streak? Or can Kanye West prove he is stronger than the competition? Find out next Friday!
Oh, and one last thing. This week is officially one year that I have been doing the Passion of Chachi Top 20 Video Countdown. I put this up for my own enjoyment last year it kind of took off from there. I would like to thank everyone that reads this (about 21 of you, give or take per Friday) every week and I have only missed one of the 52 weeks (it was done late so I didn’t really miss it, but I have to keep it real) I have been doing this so I am dedicated to the peeps. I want to send a special thanks to Roxanne for giving me the link on her site and for anyone that ever gave me a shoutout (there are like five of you and you know who you are). Again I thank you for reading because without you, I am just a nutcase with a computer. This is for you! The first #1 video ever….”SHAMROCK” by UVERworld!!!
Thank you again, peeps. It’s about the love. “The Little Mermaid” on Saturday so an update on Sunday maybe. Until then, stay up.
Chachi Out!!

Beautiful Girls Only Date Rich, Ugly Fat Fucks. And Sean Kingston is Proof.
I am sick of the non-singing ass singers all over the place. I heard that song in fucking Dillards. White people, I figured you pale-faced fucks wouldnt stand for darkies on your radios in your places of purchase. With this being said, the people are to be shot in their fucking faces on sight:
Akon (Got to start with the original Ugmonatron)
T-Pain (God...won't someone shoot this nigga)
Chad Kroger (I really dont like Nickelback)
Bono (Fuck Bono, Fuck the Poor and FUCK U2!)
Robin Thicke (The falsetto was cool for one song. ONE SONG. Get your nuts back or get a bullet to the face)
Rihanna (Take your bowling ball inhaling nostrils and your Daytona 500 size forhead and die. You dont need an umbrella, you need a tarp on that huge ass forhead of yours)
Pretty Ricky (Who are they? I dont know, but I just heard them while changing a CD and I'm sure that Jodeci wants their style back. Fuckers)
Fergie (My stance on her is changing because I like "big Girls Don't Cry" but she still looks like Frankenhooker. Man is the monster, but the monster is a man!)
Whoever made "Ay Bay Bay" (God....I am praying for some hip hop shootings soon. Thin out the ranks a little bit)
There are some more but I need to sleep now. I will have a post on my hitlist later. Wait, that could be seen as a threat of violence. So, my next post will be:
MOTHERFUCKERS THAT SHOULD BE SHOT IN THE FACE ON SIGHT!
Yeah...now THAT is a threat. Now, to leave you with something I am totally ashamed of right now. My new favorite song...."Crank That" by Soulja Boy:
God...I hate myself right now. But I gotta crank that! Superman and WHOOOOA!

I GOT SOUL! And I'm Superbad!
Chachi Top 20 Video Countdown!
We start off with a Countdown legend on his way out…
20. T.I. – Big Things Poppin’ (Last Week #16)
The King of the South and (arguably) the King of the Countdown is on his way out of the Top 20 after cracking the Top 5. Here is hoping for a new T.I. video soon (I am personally waiting for “Help’s On The Way”) as it has been a good year for hip hop after…like a six year shit swing. Now, time for the greatest moment ever…
19. Aqua Timez - Alones (New Entry)
FUCK YES! FUCK YES! Did you hear that? That was the sound of my HARDEST orgasm EVER! Aqua Timez is in your face with a video for the best song of the year. There, I said it. “Alones” is the best song of the year. Prove me the fuck wrong. Yeah, I thought so. Also, it is about damn time I got a video for this! BAD ASS!
18. Sowelu, EXILE & DOBERMAN INC – 24 Karat (Last Week #20)
Mmm…Sowelu moves up two spots this week. With her fine ass. Her sexy, sexy fine ass. Oh, and she brings EXILE and DOBERMAN INC with her, too. Not as concerned about them though. I’m all about the ‘Lu!
17. Foxxi MisQ feat Zeebra – Luxury Ride (Last Week #13)
The ladies of Foxxi MisQ STILL have two videos in the Top 20, which is a feat in itself. Also, I am still waiting for a new video or at least some more live video of them. I have them performing “Ultimate Girls” on Music Station and….lets just say it’s HAWT.
16. Nelly Furtado – Do It (Last Week #18)
After a long absence (5 months) Nelly Furtado is back with a new video! “Do It” moves up two spots this week in the hopes of her second #1 video. It has been a while since “Loose” was released and she has been rather quite. And I don’t likes it. Gimme more! Do it!
15. FLOW - Answer (Last Week #15)
FLOW holds steady this week at #15. This video isn’t as bad ass as “Re:member” but very few things are. Kind of punished for past greatness but it was the same for Namie Amuro and T.I. It happens.
14. Chamillionare – Hip Hop Police (Last Week #17)
Okay, confession time. I love this video. I actually like Cham to boot. “Ridin Dirty” was pretty good and he has been in every remix not including Lil Wayne this year. I have to say…he is becoming tolerable.
13. Yui – My Generation (Last Week #10)
NOOOOO! Yui is out of the Top 10 for the first time in three months! It is a shame, but that is what you get when you don’t give me a video for about four months. I needs my damn Yui fix.
12. UVERworld - Shaka Beach~Laka Laka La~ (Last Week #14)
Speaking of fixes. I got my UVERworld fix and I must say it is well worth the wait! Like I said last week it is no “SHAMROCK” but this song is awesome. The b-sides to the single aren’t too bad either.
11. Gackt – RETURNER ~Yami no Shuuen~ (Last Week #7)
The hottest man on the Countdown falls four big spots this week with this video. All I can say is that even the hottest man alive needs to give me a video every now and then. I am just saying. On to the Top 10!
10. Gym Class Heroes – Clothes Off (Last Week #12)
Don’t look now, but Gym Class Heroes have worked their way into the Top 10 for the first time ever! Hey, 80’s covers get you play in my book. That and furries getting served dance style is the ONLY way they should be served. Aside from beat the hell up. That shit is gross!
9. John Legend – Stereo (Last Week #11)
John Legend is now tied with UVERworld with his FOURTH Top 10 video! That is quite a feat, especially in a calendar year! I really like this video now, actually better than “Heaven”. Nothing will EVER top “Save Room” but this is a nice summertime jam I will admit.
8. Foxxi MisQ feat. Miss Monday – Party Booty Shake (Last Week #4)
Mo Foxxi, Mo Problems! Both of Foxxi MisQ’s videos are falling this week and that truly hurts. Mainly because Dem is fricking hawt and I will miss her. Well, they’s all hot but you get the idea.
7. AI – Brand New Day (Last Week # 8)
AI is slowly moving her way up the Countdown, jumping one spot this week. Can she get back to the top with such stiff competition? She was there once before, but not against the likes of UGK, Abingdon Boys School and Kanye West. We will see!
6. Kanye West feat. Daft Punk – Stronger (Last Week #9)
Kanye makes the biggest jump this week, moving one step away from his second Top 5 video of the year! His album was sadly pushed up to not face 50 Cent’s album and all I can say to that is…niggas and their money are soon parted. And they don’t buy stuff to better themselves. Sad, but at least I still have Common and Kanye. More on Common later!
5. Abingdon Boys School – Nephilim (Last Week #6)
Abingdon Boys School has their second Top Five video in a month! This video has grown on me since I saw the live performance last week. It takes a pretty bad ass dude to wear a kilt in a rock video. And they pull it off.
4. L`Arc~en~Ciel – Seventh Heaven (Last Week #3, One week at #1)
After holding the top spot for a week, Hyde and Company fall one spot. I am STILL WAITING for a new video guys. Any day now…
3. Hearts Grow - Mimawari (Last Week #5)
Hearts Grow are in the Top 3! They are now treading some MAJOR territory as they are above veterans like Nelly Furtado, John Legend and UVERworld. Can they go even HIGHER and maybe even…take number one? The video is awesome and the competition is fierce so stay tuned! Its an all hip hop top two for the second straight week!
2. Common – The People (Last Week #2)
For the second straight week, Common stays at #2 with “The People”. His album debuted at #1 a few weeks ago which shows that maybe Americans ARENT stupid. I am really proud of you, hip hop fans. It isn’t all booty butt cheeks. Well, Common couldn’t take the crown for the people…
1.UGK feat. Outkast – International Players Anthem (Last Week #1, Six weeks at #1)
…Because the Underground Kings are still holding onto the throne! They have the #1 album in America and the #1 video for a SIXTH WEEK, beating out John Legend’s “Save Room” for the Countdown era record! T.I. was retro-ed 8 weeks for “What You Know” but this is the longest reigning video since I have posted this full time. Sweet Jones and the King of Trill are at #1 again! And don’t forget Daddy Fat Sacks and Andre Three Stacks! Great job!
Well, that is all for this week! Tune in next Friday to see if UGK can make it a record SEVEN WEEKS at #1! Or will Common finally lead the people to the Promised Land? Or can Hearts Grow finally take #1 as rookies? See you in seven days to find out!
That is all for now! I am off to see “Superbad” after work so I will let you know how it is on Saturday or Sunday. Next weekend it is “The Little Mermaid” so get ready for that! I am so straight. So until next time, stay up peeps!
Chachi Out!
