900 FREE GAMES?!? IS THIS REAL LIFE!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?



that's not a typo. you can drop everything you're doing RIGHT NOW and play around 900 classic arcade titles in your web browser even if you don't have the time to DIY your laptop into the ultimate home arcade! the good people over at the internet archive have along with the folks at JSMESS taken on the task of preserving these classic titles for posterity, and most of them are in good working order! all you need to get your dig dug or galaga on is:


  • a computer;
  • an internet connection; and
  • the desire to be awesome and not a n00b
by virtue of being in the drewniverse right now you meet 2 of the qualifications. the only question is, do you dare to be awesome and not a n00b? i know i do. for the non-n00bs, in order to run the gmaes in browser just click the "run" link under the pic in the top right corner.
right there

now if you'll excuse me, i have to go.... uhh...  water my dog.... *goes to the internet arcade*

ps, here's the link for the real mvps

drewniverse shorts: when your lady wants to cut her hair...

when your lady wants to cut her hair, she'll make her case:

and you, being a good guy, will listen:


she'll say it's for







because shes bored




and you'll say, "but you'll get bored with it cut",


becuse you know her and it's not that she wants the cut JUST because "it's cute", it's that it's new. and she'll say, "then i'll grow it back"
perfectly reasoned

and you'll see, "i wouldn't like it" because you think she looks fine how she is

or you'll flat out say

and she'll begrudgingly concede the point


and you'll feel bad because no matter what she does you'll be fine with it.  and all you want is for her to be happy

shut up in my bones



bones are important, man.

stay with me. have you ever really thought about them? beyond them being hard or hurting a lot if they break i mean. have you? bones are why you have a form!! they hold you up and let you walk and stuff. they do other stuff, too. they enable you to eat and start digestion (teeth are bones, too, you know) they hold your muscles in place so you can, like, have mobility. they make stuff taste better (the difference between unctuous and flavorful stock and blah di blah broth? stock is made with the bones of the beastie). even bugs have bones (they call them "exoskeletons" because they wear them on the outside because bugs have no shame). and the most important thing bones do?
star in noir style mysteries?
no, they make blood! thought it was the heart that did that? wrong again Bob! the heart is like the head of person city's blood distribution ring. it moves the product through the veins and what not, but it has a supplier, and the supplier lives in the bones. that would be the marrow. see, if the heart is Frank Lucas, and the blood is blue magic, then the marrow is the vietnamese general that grew the opium it was made of.
And that would make Richie Roberts a heart attack (get it? because he was the arresting officer?!)
the bone marrow is very important. it's what makes bone in food taste good, and it's what gives stock it's oomph. also it's wht gives your body blood, and  more importantly, white blood cells. without white blood cells the body can't fight infection, and if you can;t fight infection, you can't, like, live through stuff. you need to be able to live through stuff. i mean it! how terrible would it be if everytime you got a sniffle you had to fear for your life? that's how important bones are, they give you the ability to live your life and live through the stuff that wants to take your life from the inside. 

and the cool thing is we all have that superpower!

.....

ok, so i lied. most of us have that superpower, but there are those of us who don't. there are people in this world that for one reason or another lose the ability to produce new healthy blood cells to fight off infections that might do us in. and you know what? as superheroes, it is our duty to help those who cannot help themselves. we have to give our powers to those who have lost the ability to use their own. that's what wolverine would do. remember that scene in the first [read: the good] X-men movie? when rogue was latched into Magneto's "turn-all-the-people-into-mutants-but-it'll-kill-the-person-acting-as-the-battery-so-i'll-trap-a-teenager-who-can-steal-powers-into-it-in-my-place-because-the-nazi's-killed-my-mom" machine and died as a result, wolverine went and did the one thing he knew could save her: touched her so she could steal his healing power to come back to life. 
shown: life giving. not shown: what it looks like (fuckin)

that's what we are: a bunch of wolverine's. we all have a healing factor shut up in our bones. and we need to be willing to give our powers to those who have lost the ability to use there's. that's why i encourage everyone who is able to sign up to the National Marrow Donor Program as a bone marrow donor. it costs you nothing but a cheek swab and it could save someone's life, man. you could be somebody's personal wolverine!
not a butt cheek swab, you perv....
look, i know it's a scary proposition. donating a piece of you to somebody else, somebody you've never met no less, doesn't sound appealing. it sounds painful and invasive. i know man. when i signed up i had the same thoughts. but you know what outweighed all of my fears? the idea that just maybe one day there would be a part of me out there saving the next michael jackson, or the next bill gates. somebody might have leukemia and need a marrow transplant and that may be the person that cures AIDS or cancer. somebody might need chemo and require a transplant to repair their immune system afterwards, and that person may go on to invent time travel, or may negotiate peace in the middle east. hell, you may just save somebody's mom or dad, brother or sister, son or daughter, and they may go on to just lead a normal life. and that? that's worth more than any fear i had. that outweighs all of it.

i don't really know how to close this one out, so i'll just leave you with this image that pretty much says it all.
any questions, bub?
