If, like this young man, you’ve ever felt the burning desire to transform your mundane human form into the superheroic slendour of Ultra Seven (a Japanese superhero for those not in the know), then the Kinect is for you.
Don’t settle for some cheaply made costume with stomach pads from the local supermarket, instead use the virtual power of augmented reality and even execute his lazer-firing power. Hoooo!
What can one do when one is surrounded by peasants, especially peasants who try to poke one’s wife through the open window of one’s Rolls-Royce. Bloody rotten ruffians, what?!
They should be hunted down like small woodland creatures and rounded up and put in a jolly big arena, stripped of their clothes and covered with jam while we set some flesh-eating safari ants on them. Tally ho!
So, if you’ve been following the cricket, well, maybe you should get a life. Only kidding, if you’ve been following it you’ll have been witness to England kicking Australia’s convict-descended asses.
It’s like they weren’t even trying, like they knew from the start that England were going to wipe the floor with them, then wipe their butts with them too, just to add insult to injury. Now it’s time to celebrate, unless you’re Australian then maybe drink to forget.
Next time you walk past a homeless guy and throw a penny at his mangy dog, remember that man could be the undiscovered voice (and face) of radio.
Take this bum for instance (question: why do homeless people always have to wear camouflage gear?), looking at him you’d think he was a talentless swine whose only redeeming feature was he could chew off a rat’s head when he got real hungry.
But no, he’s got a voice cut from the finest silk. No doubt the power of the internet will finance his own station, paid for with digitised hope.
Will you look at this, a video that combines two cool things — video games and street art. They’ve leapt on the zeitgeist, namely Banksy-style stencils and NES nostalgia, and swung it about their heads until it’s flown off into space.
But *serious face* there is something to be learned here. And that is, never stamp on a stranger’s painting or you will be crushed under fist of a giant animated pixel-stencil. Be warned.
Some of us have useless skills like, I dunno, the ability to operate on the human brain or investigate the cosmos using innovative technologies. And then some of us have useful, valuable skills.
You know the sort, like God had singled this person out for a purpose, to advance the human race for the benefit of generations to come. And this man is one of those people. Because he can fit twenty quarters in his belly button.
Problem?
