Just Whatever

Well this is the 200th post that I have made on Just Whatever! Are you proud of me???

I thought I’d take a look at my favourite 10 posts and relive the magic… or the tragedy?

10. How Lord of the Rings Should Have Ended

Someone made a great animation of how Lord of the Rings could/should have been.

9. Get Back at Telemarketers

A radio show in the United States played this clip of a great way to get back at telemarketers. Awesome!

8. Creepy Strange Notice

It’s just a picture, but so weird and random I love it!

7. Evolution of Dance

“Evolution” may be slightly exaggerated, but this is a hilarious clip of comedian Judson Laipply. It was one of my earlier posts and very popular a year ago.

It’s one video that should be watched!

6. Batman vs Alien vs Predator

This is a fantastic video that someone made where Batman takes on Aliens and the Predator. Amazing!

5. Battlestar Galactica Cast in The Simpsons Style

I’m a fan of Battlestar Galactica and enjoy The Simpsons, so this was right up my alley.

I wish I was talented enough to draw these, but no, I’m just a few minutes a day blogger who stumbled on to some fantastic drawings. Which should not be forgotten, but viewed over and over again!

4. Princess Leia’s Gold Bikini

A recent post, but one of my favourites.

Star Wars fans are amazing! How many people could a website built around a gold bikini seen in a movie 30 years ago? What other fans would still be wearing that bikini 30 years later? Only Star Wars fans!

This is a fun post full of Star Wars sexiness!

3. Extremely Dumb Norwegian Blonde

All I did was post a video, but I can still watch and be amazed by the “blondness” of this woman. Whenever you want to feel smarter, just watch this.

2. Sexiest 5 Aliens from the Last 15 Years

Tricia Helfer who plays Six on Battlestar Galactica was my number one pick from the Sexiest 5 Aliens from the Last 15 Years. There is a poll which anyone can vote on and at this stage it seems the majority of people think Milla Jovovich as Leeloo from The Fifth Element is the sexiest.

Either way I thought this was an underrated post that didn’t seem to get much attention at all. So sad!

I put a lot of time into this list, it wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be to come up with 5 hotties, but surprisingly it was. For me this is a great post that should not be forgotten!

1. Top 5 Tower Defense Games

This one little post managed to make it on the front page of Digg which brought a long a huge amount of visitors, comments and links. All of which I greatly appreciate.

It was also good fun coming up with the list because it was my duty to thoroughly test all games first. Good times… Good times.

Some of you may notice this site is looking a little different these days. I’ve been playing around with it a lot, trying to make it look pretty. It’s not done yet, but I’m getting there slowly.

One new item I’ve added, which I think is cool, is the ability to add you avatar when you comment. The downside is that you have to register first… Wait, that’s not a downside, that’s a good thing!

If you have any suggestions, or something you’d like to see, just leave a comment with or without registering.

Enjoy Just Whatever!

Check out this amazing photo of the Helix Nebula taken by the Hubble Space Telescope!

The thumbnail doesn’t do it justice, so you can either see a big version, or the massive version

Here is what NASA has to say about it…

NGC 7293: The Helix Nebula
Will our Sun look like this one day? The Helix Nebula is the closest example of a planetary nebula created at the end of the life of a Sun-like star. The outer gasses of the star expelled into space appear from our vantage point as if we are looking down a helix. The remnant central stellar core, destined to become a white dwarf star, glows in light so energetic it causes the previously expelled gas to fluoresce. The Helix Nebula, given a technical designation of NGC 7293, lies about 650 light-years away towards the constellation of Aquarius and spans about 2.5 light-years. The above picture is a composite of newly released images from the ACS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope and wide-angle images from the Mosaic Camera on the WIYN 0.9-m Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory. A close-up of the inner edge of the Helix Nebula shows complex gas knots of unknown origin.

It may not be nice to laugh at midgets, but when they fight like this you really can’t help but have a slight chuckle.

I absolutely despise Paris Hilton, so when I come across a story like this I just have to share.

Paris’ “music” is so bad, even she throws up when she hears it!

From the Irish Examiner

Hilton vomits while attempting to sing own song

Paris Hilton shocked revellers at a Las Vegas nightclub when she got up to perform but ended up vomiting on stage instead.

Singer Joshua Radin was among the guests who went to a nightclub to hear rapper Shawn Jay-Z Carter perform and found himself sitting next to the socialite-turned-singer.

Radin writes on his MySpace page: “Paris Hilton was sitting next to me the whole night. Seriously, next to me, like our legs were touching for a good five hours.

“Now don’t get the wrong idea. She never once said hello, nor even looked in my direction. Five hours. And it was unreal to watch.

“She must have pulled a compact out of her bag every six minutes to stare at herself and pose while Jay-Z was performing eighteen inches from us.”

Radin writes that when Jay-Z left the stage: “Paris, who had been swilling straight vodka from (a) Grey Goose bottle for hours, gets up on stage, has the people in charge throw her ‘record’ on the house stereo for her to lip sync two of her songs. She gets up on the stage, pukes, leaves…”

This is a lovely letter from a senior citizen to a school thanking them for her radio.

I believe it was printed in an Australian newspaper. Check out the clipping or read the transcript below.

• The following letter was forwarded by someone who teaches at a small high school in country Queensland. The letter was sent to the principal’s office after the school had sponsored a luncheon for the elderly. This story is a credit to all human kind. Read it, soak it in, and bask in the warm feeling that it leaves you with…

  Dear School,

  God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent senior citizen’s luncheon.

  I’m 94 years old and live at the local Community Home for the Aged. My family has long since passed away and I rarely have visitors. As a result, I have very limited contact with the outside world. This makes your gift especially welcome.

  My roommate, Maggie Cook, has had her own radio for as long as I’ve known her. She listens to it all the time, though usually with an earplug or with the volume so low, I can’t hear it. For some reason, she has never wanted to share it.

  Last Sunday morning, while listening to her morning gospel programs, she accidentally knocked her radio off its shelf. It smashed into many pieces, and caused her to cry. It was so sad.

  Fortunately, I had my new radio. Knowing this, Maggie asked if she could listed to mine. I told her to fuck off.

  God bless you.

  Sincerely, Edna Johnson
