Medicom is the best. I dropped a small fortune on their Real Action Hero 12" line a few years ago so coveting more of their stuff makes my wallet cry.

slanted? wtf RJ?

this exists in japan to cater to a market of wannabe dog owners who simply do not have the space to own a dog properly. the average size of a japanese home is much much smaller than an western home.

and as for the dog eating comment, i'm not even going to dignify that idiotic statement.

ethnic? so white people aren't ethnic? they have no ethnicity? ha!

its not distasteful, just flawed.

Oh nevermind, now after watching the video I realize its just way a terrible way overboard reaction to a youth culture that is absolutely harmless.

Is this the "Disco Sucks" for a new generation? I say more power to you. Rock forth!

Umezu is a popular horror manga artist. This isn't the first time he's been on television.

Oh my god, I was so addicted to Q3 when it first came out. It took me years to get over that one but now I may have to load up the railgun once again.

#6, no you are wrong. It's not okay to have your private personal life put on display regardless if you are a public figure and/or a douchebag.

Om, you owe us an apology for being an ass.

ah, nevermind. i see in their "about" section that they have obtained the rights.

Is there some sort of copyright infringement going on here? Punk magazine and Creem magazine may no longer be around but they both have official websites which sell t-shirts.

Sounds like the premise of a provincial British comedy.

Why would she WANT to keep her name is what I'm wondering. If anyone does a google search for "Lennon", chances are that the first 10 million hits will not be her myspace page.

That's a very good call, her work has a kind of art nouveau feel but yet its very modern.

Give me my unicorn chaser!

I didn't know Penn was cast as Milk. I was rooting for Adrian Brody.

The best pizza in NYC is very rarely in Manhattan. You need to go to the outer boroughs.

It's been over 20 years since I obsessively purchased Ral Partha figures with my allowance money. This site is like some drug pusher lurker behind a corner and offering me a free taste.

squirrelgirl, most of that flat graphical style all looks the same. it's cute but it all looks the fucking same.

@Warren Camishen, you're silly.

Yeah, Edison was a twat. He used strong arm tactics sending thugs to physically threaten filmmakers in the East Coast if they didn't pay him what he considered motion picture taxes on technology he created (which he didn't). Fuck that guy.

is this klezmer music? or is it more like gypsy jazz?

oh ABQ HALSEY, rock and roll zombies is another genre altogether. this is more of the transgressive schoolgirl yakuza revenge genre, or just simply the revenge genre which has been popular in east asia for the last 100 years.

I can has bionics?

Does Damien Hirst know about this?

He taught English in Japan and has a Japanese girlfriend and blogs about how the culture is just so gosh darn weird. How novel. It should be a new internet drinking game where every time you come across an article like this, you have to take drink a shot.

great pics. i don't see any "dog fighting" as someone had mentioned.

We're all glad that Japan surrendered, there's no argument about that. It's just very hard to celebrate the murder of so many civilians. Killing women and children sucks, period.

Wow, fantastic! Except for the footwear, which makes me wonder what samurai wore on their feet.

Sometimes I can understand the anti-foreigner sentiment. How many western English teachers with an inflated sense of entitlement can you put up with in one day? But another thing to understand is the growing trend in right wing nationalistic sentiment. Japan can be highly fascistic in many ways and ex-pats need to realize that not everyone will be accepting or accomodating to an outsider, particularly one that is drunk and obnoxious in their host country.

Yeah that's a crummy finder's fee. The norm is something like 10%.

My very first hardcore show was seeing the Beasties play at A7. We all bought their ep from the Rat Cage and then we'd wear their stickers on our leather jackets. People thought we were some kind of strange street gang called "beastie boys" because it was all over our clothes!

Between Pollywog Stew and Cookie Puss, they went through an "art rock" stage which no one seems to remember because they didn't release any records then. But yeah, they were not only one of the first new york hardcore bands, they basically helped create that scene.

Although I am happy that the suspect was apprehended, this outcome has only shown how incredibly hypocritical the Thai Gov't is about this sort of thing. Their laws have been so relaxed about this sort of behavior for years that their country has been a mecca for foreign (and local) pedophiles. And now only after having the international spotlight on this one case, have they jumped into action to do anything about it and then parade the suspect in the media like a prized pig.

I'm not fond of these kind of posts. They always reek of the same cultural smugness you see on "Engrish" blog sites. Yeah, we get it already, brown people will eat anything.

@Will Heydt-Minor,

G fck yrslf.

So that's where all my Clue pieces went.
