Mad perspective and spatial awareness, seriously how do people do stuff like this

Until this tournament, I never fully realized how much Nadal means to tennis. I knew he was a great player, obviously. But I’m a goner for Federer, and Nadal has often felt to me like an infuriating obstacle, a berserk dervish with the demonic power to out-frenzy Roger’s grace and lucidity. His tennis was a bludgeoning adrenaline rush, a Ramones song that lasted four hours. Had he never been born, Federer would have won the 20 majors he seemed destined for in 2007. I admired what Nadal had done, and I loved the insanity at the top of the men’s bracket. But deep down, in some atavistic corner of my sports fan’s heart, I kind of wanted him gone.

Brian Phillips writes about the epic Australian Open Final between Djokovic and Nadal and manages to lay out my exact thoughts on good ol’ Rafa. Go read the rest of the article for Phillips’ apt comparisons of our tennis greats to the ancient Greek warriors of the Iliad.  (via chels)

I can't help but agree. Were it not for Rafa, Federer would arguably be considered the greatest player of all time. The confusing thing about Federer here is that by the time Nadal began challenging for majors Roger could hardly be considered 'past his peak' - almost like the two had development curves that looked like a pair of Table Mountains back-to-back like a chubby Venn diagram. And then 2011 came along and Djokovic blew everything out the water, for now at least.

I watched that movie today actually. It’s not everyday you see the stupidest thing you’ve ever seen.

LMAO. Um, did you see my post earlier about the scary movies I watched saturday? That was by…

omg you wanna talk to me about dumb movies? I have seen Trolls 2, Videodrome, The Evil Bong, Thanskilling, Dolly Dearest, Bully, The Gingerdead man… omg the worst of the worst.  

videodrome is a fucking classic.

The ones I'm looking out for are all made by the Asylum. The only one I found so far was Snakes on a Train, which featured, amongst other things, a snake firing venom onto the lens of the camera while in-shot. Paranormal Entity anyone?
