Yeah, I read show notes! Although I don't always. Yay show notes, yay Cards Against Humanity! I bought a set because of the link. Someone else on G+ or that ilk mentioned it this month, but it was not available at that moment. I almost made my own set, but now I just get to hand over credit chits. Wooooo!
Thanks for the show, Wil- I enjoyed all parts, as always.
Radio Free Burrito: Episode Thirty-Three
Holy Crap it's time for a new episode of Radio Free Burrito! Today, I talked about some games I've been playing, rambled a little (a lot) and talked a bit about comic books and beer. It's a stream of consciousness RFB, so you probably want to skip this one. If you're still thinking about listen...
100 people? Is that hyperbolic? My fellow co-worker and uber-geek told me it was up yesterday afternoon and I consider it an act of serious self-control that I haven't listened to it. I will in a few minutes on my way into work.
I was just looking at the show notes and ... dood. EeeeeEEE! Thanks, Pal Wil Wheaton, for putting this together again.
There's a new episode of Radio Free Burrito
These puppies want you to listen to Radio Free Burrito. So from time to time, I make this stupid podcast called Radio Free Burrito. It's this thing that I do because it's creative and entertaining to me, and is an easy way for me to amuse myself and hopefully share some interesting things ...
Dear Wil,
A young friend of mine who is 8, just finished off her school year, which was overshadowed by a bully who took glee in tearing down this sweet, intelligent, creative creature. She would leave for school skipping, and come home crying. Naturally, her mom was furious and is doing what she can to keep her little girl from getting bullied again in next year's class. However, the 8 year old has to figure out how to deal with this soul-tearing bullying and get past.
Mom, who is a wonderful geeky woman, pointed out she needed to be like Harry Potter and invoke her patronus. That this kid was acting like a dementor and feeding off all that's good in her.
In this case, dementors can find a way to get at the 40-mumbles. Don't give this one the satisfaction. Just remember Ryan, Nolan, Anne, the menagerie and the legion of fans who consider you a huge inspiration. You truly help end world suck and you rarely forget to be awesome. Visualize all that, point your wand and summon that patronus.
Video Q&A Post for Denver Comicon
I was not happy that I had to cancel my appearance at the Denver Comicon this weekend, mostly because I knew that there were a significant number of people who bought tickets specifically because I was going to be there. Aaron Douglas did a magnificent job (because he is awesome) replacing me, a...
Just... squee on the notion of the movie, which from my perspective feels like a bonus considering all the Amazingly Cool Stuff you've gotten to do over the years.
(writing from Chrome, too, because I was tired for FF crashes- hrmph)
in which i have an audition for a feature this afternoon
I composed a post in Firefox all about how I have this awesome audition this afternoon. Then, when I tried to publish it, Firefox hung for ten minutes before it crashed. I've been spoiled by stability, so I didn't do the ctl-c that was so pretty much automatic a few years ago... so here's the tl...
Dude.
I really wish I had something really excellent to say other than crazy people are scary and I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
Thanks for sharing your other SDCC stories. I'm glad you also had fun and it wasn't all just nut jobs.
if you cut me, i will bleed
Pretty much all of Comicon was awesome. However, there was one thing that was decidedly not awesome, and though I had initially decided not to talk about it in public, it's bothered me since it happened, so I wrote about it on G+ earlier today. I'm cross posting it here, though, because it's imp...
Still reading, even if it's on a time delay.
Hope the beer making is going well.
Because it's become a yearly tradition, here's a story about fireworks
I've written hundreds of thousands of words over the years, but this remains one of my all-time favorites, so I like to revisit it every year. It was originally written and published on July 5, 2002, which usually feels like years and days ago all at once, but this year actually feels like a lif...
Are you convinced yet? OK, how about now? Or: Yes.
Also: I am so stoked for this season's Eureka! I watched the opener last night and I'm relieved. I wasn't feeling the love so much last season, but now-- yes. Also knowing you'll be around this time makes it that much more cool.
anyone interested in a short fiction collection?
I have a question for everyone who reads my blog: if I put some short stories I'd written together into a little collection and sold it at Lulu, would you be interested? I ask this because I collected a few short stories into a limited edition chapbook for last year's PAX Prime, and it's been si...
I was listening to the tail end of this podcast on the T home yesterday and just cracked up-- you know, like you do-- (during the bit about garage band music, if you care) and the older gentleman with the luxurious white mustache noticed and smiled, too. I was tempted to explain what was so funny, but it seemed like one of those things that wouldn't translate.
Also, I think I know your "Ken K" who fed the burrito. Weird? Possibly. There's probably a bazillion Ken K's out there and a subset of those dudes listen to you and a subset of them are willing to pay for drinks at Comicon. But I think that one was my friend. He knew when I fed the burrito, too. Eeeeerie.
Have fun this weekend- try not to shoot your horse in the meantime. (That was a great story, too)
Radio Free Burrito: Episode Twenty-Eight
Holy Crap, it's time for a new episode of Radio Free Burrito! Has it really been three weeks since the last show? I guess it has. Well, I brought a note that will hopefully excuse my absence... Show Notes: The logo was designed by WWdN:iX reader Marc, who asked that I not link to his "in progr...
I am familiar with many aspects of the lizard brain. Good luck in your ongoing attempts to tame it. No doubt you'll get it eventually. Hopefully a lot sooner than when you're on the plane over here.
Just remember you're Minister of Geek Affairs, man, talking to your people.

You know about the Blue Car Syndrome, right? It says that when you buy a blue car, you suddenly start seeing blue cars everywhere. It doesn't mean that there are actually more blue cars than before, it just means that you're more aware of them. About a month ago, I read something about The Lizar...
