Welcome to the Epicenter of Badass. Here’s some stuff I came across this week that, IMHO are completely badass. Feel free to comment below. Enjoy.

1. Here’s a pic I found online that made me soil myself. Lightning storm in a volcanic eruption. Looks like hell on earth.

2. McLovin warns you about the evils of DVD piracy. This is an important public service announcement. He may never work again.

3. This is probably photo-shopped. Steven Seagal doesn’t have this much range in real life.

4. Yes, this monkey in Japan is a waiter. DO NOT order the banana colada. I can’t stress this enough

5. The Foo Fighters are awesome. If you don’t believe me, check out their official tour rider. It is full of win, and totally badass.

Every Thursday, right here on this blog, I’ll give you a list of hotness from all over the web. This is based 100% completely on my own opinion of what is “badass”. No one has influenced this list. Now, I give you, EoB:

1. I’m pretty sure this is the reason the internet exists.

2. John Mayer rules. Watch the language on this one. You have to watch if only to see him rock not one, but two Bluetooths.

3. MUSE on guitar hero! It’s badass enough to virtually rock out on “Knights of Cydonia”, now additional tracks are available. That would be me jumping off the furniture.

4. Flobots. It’s Eminem+Cake.

5. “If you got a funny sign, you ain’t been homeless that long” - Chris Rock. If the panhandlers in Rochester were this creative I may spare them a buck or two.

EoB is a list I like to compile of the things I feel are completely “badass”.  Take a sec, check it out, leave a comment.  As always, thanks for listening to 98PXY!

1.  This is a short movie.  If you’ve got around five minutes, watch it.  It made me jump.  Twice.  The moral of the story?  Women shouldn’t drive.

2.  Sleestaks used to give me nightmares as a kid.  Remember “Land of the Lost”?  You shouldn’t be surprised to hear they’re making a “Land of the Lost” movie.  I am prepared to have nightmares all over again.

3.  Speaking of Hollywood remakes, “The Dark Knight” will most likely be one of this summer’s biggest blockbusters.  But why are the trailers so similar to the original Batman movie?  BTW, this was user made as a tribute.  But it’s still pretty badass.

4. Giant squid.  I am obsessed with them.  This colossal squid has what scientists are calling the worlds largest eye, 11 inches across!

5. Some of you may be considering which college to attend in the fall.  May I suggest a school that is as honest as this one?

6. Lost is on tonight.  Last week, The Smoke Monster was beyond badass.

7. Grand Theft Auto IV.  Coming soon to every newscast out there.

1.  Travis Barker of Blink 182 remixing “Low” by Flo-Rida.  Pretty sure this dude doesn’t own a single shirt.

2.  Grand Theft Auto IV is less than 2 weeks away.  Almost time to hit the streets again.  I am not a role model.

3.  I can’t imagine the pain…What’s the difference between Beer Nuts and Deer nuts?  Beer Nuts are $8/pound and Deer Nuts are…wait for it…Under a Buck!!!

4.  Will Ferrell as President Bush.  Notice how no one claps until they realize it’s Will Ferrell.

5.  The Wilford Brimley diabeetus cat.  I know how fond Amanda Valentine is of her cat, Marti, but this cat is far more bad ass.  This cat would eat Amanda if she was its owner.

6.  This kid.  I just don’t trust him.

7.  The pissed off 11 year old that wrote this.  Although, I’m not sure I believe it to be true.  Most 11 year olds know more about computers than geek squad.

8.  Techno Viking.  Never gets old.  The most menacing finger I have ever seen, and quite possibly the only man alive who could beat up Chuck Norris.

9. The McLovin’ Fund. My new favorite charity. I have traveled 10 years into the future and back . You have no idea how funny this is.

10. Rick Astley.  My dream:  The Chicago Bears in this years SuperBowl with the half-time performance stopped by a live performance by Rick Astley himself.  The ultimate Rick-Roll to the world.

What did I miss?  Post below and thanks for listening to 98 PXY!
