Christmas Vacation!

Lazy bastard!  Oh, wait...he's kinda like me in that regard.

Lazy bastard! Oh, wait...he's kinda like me in that regard.

We here at ManWithPez are taking a few days off for the holidays.  Mostly, this is due to technical, familial, and climatic difficulties.  However, we will be back on Jan 1st, with a few differences.  Not many, because I’m not going to come up with a whole lot of new material…but there will be a slight format change.  Not the look of the site, because, for now, I love it, and that’s the way it is.  I mean, we could use some more tits around here, but hey, I’ll take what I can get.  See you after the new year!

Top Ten Stocking Stuffers

Yes, that's my uncle and me...That's me wresting the banana from the stocking.  Thanks, Grandma!

Okay, this Top Ten is going to be one of the personal kind (as if most of them aren’t?).  Over the years, I’ve received several things in my stockings, and no, I’m not referring to the fruit and nuts that my Grandmother used to put in there.  Several toys, tools, etc that I’ve personally received that actually influenced what kind of nerd I became when I got all growed up.  My own top ten favorite stocking stuffers throughout the years follows after the jump!

I’m Dreaming Of A White…Something.

May I present the Winter Gangbang of 1954!

May I present the Winter Gangbang of 1954!

“We’re going to have the hap-hap-happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tapdanced with Danny fuckin’ Kaye.” – Clark W. Grizzwald (Christmas Vacation).  See, as a film, White Christmas has pervaded popular culture, and at no time more, of course, than for the holiday it’s named for.  While there may be one or two Christmas films out there that you can brush off in, say, July and give a look, White Christmas is probably more suited for such a thing, but it’s not the kind of film you can simply watch over and over.  I’ll tell you why after the jump.

Hot Nerd Crush #11: Madchen Amick

Mon ,21/12/2009
I almost forgive her for the umlaut.  Almost.

I almost forgive her for the umlaut. Almost.

Okay, clearly I don’t have the ability to access my keyboard’s special characters, including the ever elusive and possibly nonexistent UMLAUT!  I don’t need it, I don’t want to use it…but this weeks Hot Nerd Crush, who uses one of the imaginary characters in her name, almost…ALMOST makes me want to think differently.  Hot Nerd Crush Madchen Amick begins after the jump.

Tweet 3000!

Fri ,18/12/2009

It’s true, I tweet a lot over on Twitter.  Unfortunately, I’ve been saving up for my 3,000 tweet.  Yes, I get excited about minor (indeed, this time, nonexistent!) milestones, and I tend to commemorate them in strange ways around here.  On the aught thousand numbered tweets, I take a picture, usually involving the Fail Whale.  Since it’s near Christmas, I thought I’d dispense with failure and keep things in a holiday theme.  So, here it is…the picture I’ve taken for tweet 3,000:

May your stockings be filled with love.  And me...

May your stockings be filled with love. And me...

 So, there you are…a holiday gift from me, ManWithPez (that’s @manwithpez over on Twitter) to you!  And, remember, you have to be a good boy or girl, or you just don’t know what Santa will leave in your stocking.

Merry Christmas!

Ten New Ways To Annoy People #11

Fri ,18/12/2009
I imagined Satan being somewhat less...annoying.

I imagined Satan being somewhat less...annoying.

Suffice it to say that the Annoyance list from last week was one of my more successful articles, thanks in part to the intelligence of my ex-girlfriend.  The picture of her rack probably didn’t hurt matters either.  Unfortunately, I have no such goodies to offer.  (Oooooh…and they were good, trust me.)  So, I’ll have to get by on my own.  Sucks to be you, six readers!  (Hi, Mrs. Nelson…first grade teacher!)  Ten new ways to annoy people starts after the jump.

Hot Nerd Mancrush #10: Ryan Reynolds

Thu ,17/12/2009
It's not fair, there are people who look like him, and I look like me.  Sigh.

It's not fair, there are people who look like him, and I look like me. Sigh.

I would call him America’s favorite smartass, except he’s not American.  He’s a filthy Canadian.  Oh well, at least there’s some type of flaw there!  And, Canada, before you come down here to slit my throat with an ice skate or something, just know this.  I’m not prejudiced of all Canadians.  Just the French ones.  Dirty French-Canadians….you’re just as bad as the real thing, you know!  Anyways, we’ll take a good hard look at Ryan Reynolds’s hard body…of work, you perverts!  Gawd!  Ryan Reynolds after the jump.

Top Ten Fictional Butlers

Wed ,16/12/2009
Shifty eyed manservants!  No wonder they're always being accused of crimes!

Shifty eyed manservants! No wonder they're always being accused of crimes!

Butlers throughout fiction are know for their discretion, their reserve, and their work ethic.  Being good at all these thing doesn’t necessarily mean a good butler, since on the whole, it’s a butler that gives his master a comeuppance of some kind that most people seem to like.  The good thing about this list is that there are so many butlers in all forms of media that I can just keep writing about them if I like.  So, don’t be surprised if I’m quite lazy one day and produce a second part to this list when I can’t think of anything else to do.  Or rather, my manservant can’t come up with one.  (That’s my motto:  Blame the help!)  The best butlers after the jump!

Twenty Years? I’ll Take Twenty More!: The Simpsons

Tue ,15/12/2009
They still got it!

They still got it!

There are few quicker ways to piss me off than to suggest that The Simpsons isn’t worth watching anymore.  All one needs to do to be proven otherwise is to have a long, hard look at the barren wasteland of what is the rest of Animation Domination, Sundays on Fox.  Seth McFarlane can seriously suck it.  I mean, occasionally he gets something right, but for the most part, I’ll take The Simpsons worst episode over the rest of Animation Domination’s best anyday.  Find out why after the jump.

Hot Nerd Crush #10: Kari Byron

Mon ,14/12/2009
I never wanted to be a photographer so bad in my life!

I never wanted to be a photographer so bad in my life!

We’re going to do a short one (piece, not woman) and I decided to go with not only a Hot Nerd Crush, but a hot nerd in her own right.  I can only list one thing in Ms. Byron’s credit list, but it’s a huge, huge thing.  When you’re not only a co-host on Mythbusters, but a member of the build team, you’ll always have a place over on ManWithPez.  Hell, Grant Imahara already took on Chuck Norris over here, so let’s have a look at Kari after the jump.
