Who wear short shorts?
Those are pretty perky boobs
Is she wearing a tie?
Maybe it's a medical condition and she can't button up her shirt?
I wonder which part of her job does she take more seriously, a weather reporter or an eye candy?
Does the carpet match the drapes?


stop taking all the jokes!!! u have to pick one

That would be the shotgun blast of obligatory one-liners for that vid?

I'm really not a fan of her. I've seen her essentially do this schtick a couple of times and it just shows contempt for women, contempt for men and a generally horrible outlook on life.
She goes on and on about how fake makeup is and dressing in a sexual manner.
And yet she always wears makeup and is a model.
So... you know.


In her previous videos there's been speculation as to the level of irony/self-mocking/disguised bitterness she is displaying.

I feel she's a smart cookie who's saying that while doing a job that requires being eye-candy isn't necessarily at odds with her parodying that situation or the views that men might arrive at based upon her looks or gender expectations of women generally.

Basically I don't think the videos would be that less abrasive or funny if she was some buttoned-up feminist cutting loose. Ultimately no one has enough info about which to conclude if she's being unduly hypocritical or as you say merely spewing contempt and anger.

They forgot CSS, TF2, L4D, L4D2, and the original Call of Duty, which are all way more popular than half the games on that list were at their peak. I guess the emphasis is on eye candy rather than good design.

Lol just saw this 2 weeks later. I have no idea what kind of day I was having to write all that. I was probably in a trolling mood as usual because that's way too many words for me. I'm still not even sure what I was writing about. Sorry if I offended you in any way.

I'm trying to make out what I meant but I see purpose and work and I fell asleep reading what I wrote so I'm sure everyone else did too. I probably got cut off in traffic by a fat guy eating Doritos and nothing makes me more angry than fat people. However, Doritos are delicious.

Consider me lightened up! Cheers.

Wow dude. I think you're takin' the interweb a bit too serious..

I can appreciate that you're opinionated and aren't afraid to show it. I'm the same.
Tho you were sort of ..inarticulate.. there so I'm not even sure what your point is.

I'll just say:

1- I'm neither a musician nor a composer, Gallowflak is.

2 - The Sun is a tabloid paper.

She's not art. She's professional eye candy for a trashy gossip periodical.

3 - By meaningful work, I mean work that gives you the feeling of "purpose".
As in, "I enjoy being a firefighter because I help save lives."

Remember the adage "If you love your work, you'll never work a day in your life"

Plus, are you really suggesting any human could sincerely feel like they'd fulfilled their purpose or potential in life..

..by sitting around, doing nothing all day?

Lighten up, mate.
Cheers. = P

Some humans engage in work to give themselves meaning. They have my pity. The rest of us engage in work to provide for a family, the family giving the meaning. A lottery winner that sits around all day could have a ton of meaning to their life and never work a single day. Your argument the simplistic view of a philosophical debate that you have twisted to fit to try and convey your meaning here.

Also by the time her "appearance" diminishes she might have moved on to something else, or maybe by the time it happens she'll be too old to care anymore. I'm sure you can't predict this woman's or anyone else's life. And the self-justification of your own work is so transparent to a point of hilarity. Composer make music. Music is art. This women is part of photography. Photography is art. Are you implying you art> her art? Every musician on the radio is a composer. When you cure cancer you can pat yourself on the back.

Jeez the middle chunk of this song is Travis to a 'T'. Really beautiful visual treatment, eye candy x a million

Yeah. A lot of this is common to the degradation in the quality of movies/TV in general, as special effects became easier and easier to do. Instead of putting a lot of thought into it and using them sparingly, it's just a constant stream of cluttered mindless eye candy.

There's a similar thing going on in computer software. Game designers think they can just throw a bunch of graphics at you without thinking too hard about gameplay or balance. Application designers make pretty looking user interfaces for bloated, laggy pieces of shit that do things 20 times slower and less effectively than it could have been done 10 years ago (I'm thinking of iTunes here. I mean that piece of shit won't even let me drag and drop a specific episode of a podcast into my ipod).

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

^Yep, Charile and the Chocolate Factory was shit in exactly the same way. Lot's of camera mugging and cgi eye candy- but absolutely no heart. No story, no characters you care about. Style over substance and cinematic drivel.

But I haven't been happy with most kids' movies lately. I know this is a minority opinion- but I thought Where the Wild Things Are was shit too- with a better soundtrack.

It's a cute feature, but ultimately it's nothing more than pure eye candy, imo. Unless they manage a ubiquitous coverage like the Google Street View.

^Sagemind, don't let lazy stop you-you have had the stamina and dedication to flattening your ass in that chair that got you to where you are today on the site-editing software I have and never use it-will one day, but you do not have time to be dilly-dallying with it now.

Take your inspiration for creation, and enroll in the Roger Corman school of film. "Cut, excellent, beautiful, move on to scenes 14-91." You have 10 days to give the producers a can of fertilizer for the premiere in Hoboken. One take wonders hit every 5th-7th time....just look at the kids who produced the ultimately unwatchable and highly successful, Blair Witch Project. Amazing what pot and fake butter can do to an audience. Take out your camera, write the script onna cocktail napkin and roll camera.

Here are a few tips to remember, elements that win every time with gullible audiences of freaks, geeks, tweaks, and the uni-dimensional meek, the latter being the ones that Frank Zappa reminded, will inherit nothing.

Nudity: Tasteful snippets of T&A (no P, unless it's a passing flash that keeps the audience wanting more or wondering if that was what they think it was), will distract an audience from content or lack of inherent talent...use sparingly, or folks may become jaded, dysfunctional social rejects.

Profanity: No film that has ever placed in the last 40 years is without it...use sparingly, do not use any of my contributions as an example.

Set: Provide the viewer with enough to occupy their feeble minds in the BACKGROUND, to distract them from the script that looked great yesterday, but stinks like foreign cheese after the drugs have worn off the next....litter the scene with props, gadgetry and eye-candy...try dumping a garbage can on the floor and re-arranging it a few times, perhaps....(HINT:most props are made of cardboard, plaster, or Styrofoam.)

Fire: Cheap and ever present, combustibles make for good cinema....think of all the chick flicks you have had to suffer, without smoke, there can be no flames.

Actors/Actresses-Optional elements of any film, these are like friends...-dime-a-dozen clutter which distract from the task at hand-employ the services of the homeless, have animals do your bidding, stack Barbies or plastic army men to the ceiling, and roll camera....insects work well too, they are always in character.

Hope this helped.

Hmm, I hadn't thought about the copy/paste thing. On the Droid you can hold down the Shift key and drag your finger over any text you want to copy. It even copies automatically, so no menus are needed. I'm surprised he didn't even mention the built in navigation or voice-to-text features.

Eye Candy: Mostly pointless, but it's important to some people. The animations don't really get in the way, but they can be turned off if desired.

Pinch Zoom: Probably useful, but I mostly operate my phone with one thumb anyway, and the controls are intuitive enough. I don't think it is specifically a patent issue though. Other US phones have it, as does the European version of Droid. There are free apps that use it, and it can be enabled in the map with a little work.

Apps: The store could be better, but you can search it easily enough. I am curious what functionality he is missing from the iPhone apps though.

App Switcher: I could be wrong, but I think it shows the six most recently opened apps. I would like it to show more than six, but there are plenty of free apps that show more if needed.


I never owned an iPhone so I can't really comment on the differences. I hear that Apple isn't playing well with Adobe, so no Flash support for the iPhone. It should be available on just about everything else some time in 2010 (according to Adobe). On the upside, the iPhone does appear to have the most accurate finger tracking of the three phones.

The Nexus does have the fastest cpu so far (that I know of) at ~1Ghz. I wouldn't give up my keyboard for it though. Maybe they can put it to some good use with more support for voice commands and language translation (Droid and Nexus already have some translation... speak to it in english and it will audibly translate to other languages, but it is limited currently). Otherwise it's only good for animations and flash games.

I look forward to the current batch of phones being obsolete by the end of the year. Competition is always a good thing. =)


Notes: Google Goggles is great, and Verizon's network does let you use the 3G internet while talking on the phone, despite what AT&T's commercials state.

still changes nothing

how soon can this kind of idiocy be shut down for good by swift rebuke on the spot?

sadly, if she's eye-candy, it matters not if she's an idiot.

Hell, she could barely know how to read and still have prime position on fox. Look at Beck!

Starblazers is another good one, and yes I watched that one too. >D Robotech had a much more dynamic story to it though. Things changed much more dramatically, and well.. as you can see the animation was often pure eye candy.


oh..i totally agree.
thats why i made the reference of maybe where robo-tech got its inspiration.
then i saw ghost in the shell...BOOM..mind blown.
star blazers was the show that got me to appreciate a japanese way of story telling.
though sometimes its TOO much,my boys had me watching DBZ,not bad..i liked it,but jeez..sometimes they would just drag a plot to death where i am yelling at the tv C"MOOOOOON.
