Call it like it is, Simon Pegg!

Death and destruction… No big deal, really. And THIS is one of the reasons I say fans should be worried about the sequel; not all this Affleck casting noise. Then again, I worry the majority of fans can't handle something meatier than Transformers anymore. Avengers probably didn't have to go the extra mile for the majority of what's out there for fans. Disclaimer: I had some issues with the latest Star Trek property also. So, maybe it's just me. :-/

Joss Whedon Supports Ben Affleck as Batman

I have been in this minority since I heard the news. Welcome to the camp Mr. Whedon. Glad to have 'ya! Now… I still think they will bomb the movie, but in my opinion it will be the material, not Affleck.

I believe in the bad customer

I have seen people like this article describes. I even know a few. I say to these people, "You get what you pay for" and "If you keep having problems, take your business elsewhere." But, I think some of these people secretly look for a reason to go all "mightier than thou" on someone; on anyone. It's not them that needs to change, it's the universe that needs to change. I can not imagine living inside that person's head, always parked in the victim zone waiting for an opportunity to loudly tell the universe around them how important they are. Very sad.

Maybe You Get Bad Customer Service Because You’re a Bad Customer
Some folks seem to get into a customer service Battle Royale every time they step outside their house. Maybe it’s because the universe is against you guys. Or maybe — just maybe — it’s because you behave like selfish obnoxious bullies.

New Dynamic Duo

In (belated) honor of +Blaine Hall's birthday last week, combined with +Sean Cowen's countdown to the walking dead premiere, plus all the recent Batman news, I present the G+ Dynamic Zombie Fleeing Duo! Whereas Blain seems to have a healthy dose of "HOLY, LET'S GET THE HECK OUT OF HERE, BATMAN!" Sean has a total "Just wait until I get my Bat Zombie Repellent" cool smugness as they escape the oncoming horde.

Having met these guys just a few weeks ago, I can totally vouch for the costumes, absolutely no Photoshopping necessary. Cross my fingers. Right +Keith Cramer and +Kristi Fahlsing? 😉

Special inspiration credit to +Vash Crowley for his recent dynamic duo gif that kicked me into gear!

Sex Every Day for a Year

Loved the combination of honesty and wit in this article. I think there are lessons for both sexes.

What Happened When I Had Sex Every Day For A Year
The fact is, I am horrible at intimacy. I come from a family of non-huggers and I sometimes hate my body, so yeah, recipe for Temple Grandin hug machine. My husband is gorgeous and very, very sexy, but the issues we were having in the sack were all me.

Screen Pop-Ups on Mobile

Please, please, please, Google, make these go away! These pop up when you scroll up the stream (on the mobile app for Android). The bottom one was annoying enough (I never use it) but the top one is super annoying. Grr!

Game Of Thrones' Star Adopted Her Direwolf

I like the actress SO much more than her character! 😉

From the link:
"Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner brought her direwolf home with her. The actress revealed to the Coventry Telegraph that she adopted Zunni, the dog who played Sansa Stark's late direwolf, Lady.

Glad I read. The Seven Secrets of Happiness

Honestly, with the title and the article's cheesy graphic, and intro that does not really grab you by the collar, I was surprised I read this. But, it turned out to be wonderful reading, especially going into a new week. "Self helpy" sounding stuff is everywhere but only some of it resonates. Your mileage may vary; for me, I liked the plain and simple summary with this one.

Thanks +Donna Schakelaar for your post.

Powerful Open Apology from Former Weight Loss Consultant

This is amazing. Everyone with diet and/or food issues should read it. So, pretty much everyone should read it. Best thing I have read in a while.

An Open Apology To My Former Weight Loss Clients
I’m sorry because every time you ate something you “shouldn’t” or ate more than you “should,” I talked about “getting back on the bandwagon.” I cringe now every time someone uses that phrase. When did the way we eat become a bandwagon? When did everyone stop eating and become professional dieters?

Online Pay TV

My hopes are not high for anything in this realm to work well for the consumer. Internet service is still going to charge out the hindside for the bandwidth.

Nerd Block Epic Fail?

According to the e-mail I received: "Nerd Block is monthly surprise package delivered right to your door, filled with all sorts of nerdy collectibles for you to tear into! Each month you’ll receive a limited edition t-shirt and several other epic items to give you a total nerdgasm. Every Nerd Block is loaded with the best collectibles from your favorite brands!"

(1) This is from the ShirtPunch guys in Canada (who I normally love). However, I did not sign up for this e-mail newsletter; they used their ShirtPunch distribution list to send this to me.

(2) I am not paying $20 a month to get cast-off unknown merchandise, regardless of the "favorite brands" tagline. This reeks of marketing where nerds/geeks (basically their t-shirt core base) likes everything they consider to be "nerdy" (more appropriately read, "whatever they can buy at a good price to shove in the boxes and not worry about inventory control").

If it's your thing, though… let me know if I'm totally off-base and missing the coolest thing ever. From my favorite brands. :-/
