super trivia sunday: moooooooom you promised we’d go to kashyyk for lunch!
written by john on 09/21/08 3 comments


in the summer of 1999 a trip to kfc, pizza hut or taco bell became way more than just your run o’ the mill fast food run. it was a hyper-space jumping blast off to a galaxy far far away! that summer, in celebration of star wars episode one: the phantom menace, each restaurant took on the identity of a different planet in the star wars universe. can you tell us which restaurant became which planet? and for 3000 bonus daktrai credits: each restaurant featured four corresponding character cups. can you name all sixteen of them?

as always the winner will be slapped up on the wall of fame and be given a speaking role in SEBULBA’S FIRST MOVIE, the direct to DVD sequel coming out next spring from Lucas Home Entertainment.

[the first person to comment with the correct answers (limit one try per person) will get their name in the hall of fame on the side bar and get to lord it over everyone. don’t be discouraged if someone else answers first; there’s a good chance that person is wrong.]

i’m sorry, but this commerial puts afro nugg-merican realtions back hundreds of years. chicken mcnuggets come from ALL WHITE MEAT and they think they can appropriate the music of their dark meat brothers and just call it their own? it’s like a modern day chicken minstrel show. why don’t they just cover their faces in soy sauce and call it a day? yes massa ronald! no massa ronald! want me to do a little step n’ fetch for you massa ronald?

disgusting!

nintendo cereal: a video game you can eat?!
written by eric on 08/12/08 3 comments


if you were popular in the 80’s then two things would inevitably
happen. 1.) you’d become a breakfast cereal. 2.) you’d become a
nintendo game. given those two facts. was there any ever doubt that
this would happen…

the nintendo cereal system wasn’t just a meal — it was a full fledged
video game playing break-stravaganza-fast, magic-licously combining
the awesomeness of sugar-based cereal and the awesomeness of nintendo.
with the nintendo cereal system you were playing your breakfast and
eating your nintendo!

i just hope the marshmallows aren’t in another fucking castle.
