You Don't Think I'd Go Into Combat With Loose Change In My Pocket, Do You?

Rainier — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 00:00:00 PST

Browsing the Internet, you come across a lot of weird, creepy stuff that makes you shake your head. On the flip side of the coin, some things make it all worthwhile, like this awesome LEGO Captain America clip. If you're squeamish, don't bother looking because arms get ripped off, there are plenty of headshots, and there's plenty of splatter & gore to go with it. Two thumbs up for whoever made that one!

Speaking of awesomeness, it's not that I'm a fan of the "Glee" TV show, but sometimes you'll watch when they are covering iconic artists. The most recent episode was dedicated to Michael Jackson. "Thriller" was an awesome song back in the day, and so were "Billy Jean," "Beat It," and even "Smooth Criminal," of which they did an amazing rendition. Don't really care about the vocals, but the two cello guys are insane. If these two guys aren't fans of Apocalyptica, they ought to sign them up on the double. It's off the hook!
