Digital Ethics Spanning a Period of Time from 1992 to a Mysterious Age Known Only as ‘Coming Soon’

video studiesWe in the company feel it is our ordained duty to warn our three readers of the dangers of ripping/torrenting/pirating/eating/licking/ (and/or) copying digital data using your computertron device.  Please don’t do it, for if you do, your computertron device will become possessed by a vindictive hip-hop spirit:

And that’s what used to happen in the 90’s.  Image what would happen today now that special effects technology has advanced to more sophisticated levels:

Scary, huh?  Who knows what was happening there – I sure don’t!

Dancing Abraham Lincoln

Former Illinois Senator, Abraham Lincoln, needed some much needed unwinding time after working so hard at Lincoln Says Uncool, so he decided to go clubbing in his favorite Elmo suit. He may also run into his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln (who is crazy), wearing a dragon suit, but who knows! Certainly I don’t!

I Fucked Martin Van Buren

Walking down the hall to take the ladder up the 12 stories gave me a little time to think: Should I sleep with C-list President Martin Van Buren, better known as Fluffy from The White House?

Earlier in the evening, after showing my fake family crest to get into a tavern of humor and throwing back a couple of beers, I found myself in the perfect position to heckle the presidential star I admired when I was younger. A few minutes into the comedic speech he had prepared he asked for the Jews to make themselves known. This medium-sized audience in this medium-sized colonial city held only one. He was subsequently escorted out the building and deported back to Europe.

Post-show, Van Buren waited outside to sign autographs and take oil paintings with anyone willing to shell out 10 pieces of currency. I told him I was going out for drinks and that he was more than welcome to come along. He asked where he may send a messenger boy instead and said he would beckon after finishing up his business at the tavern of humor.

For some reason that I still don’t fully understand myself, I actually scribbled my information down and handed it over.

A couple of neat whiskeys later, a messenger boy beckoned. I made my way over to the Colonial Marriot. Three steps inside the door and his tongue was down my throat. The forwardness of his kiss continued onto the bed, which was where he informed me that he was a “tits man” and that mine “were pretty nice.” And people say men can’t compliment a girl like they used to…back in the 1600s.

The sex was extremely awkward, and Van Buren shifted from one position to the next with all the grace of a 14-year old boy. After 10 minutes, he pulled out to cum on my stomach. The fact that he yelled out “Moo Goo Gai Pan” while ejaculating only heightened the magical moment. He offered to wipe me down with a towel, but I excused myself to the bathroom with a simple: “No, that’s ok. I can clean it up myself.”

The pillow talk consisted of 45 minutes of Van Buren telling me about political cartoons. He also showed me dozens of small cloth Halloween dolls he apparently collects.

It was third grade show and tell all over again (or at least what I have heard from my brother’s education stories, of course I stayed home to learn knitting techniques at that age), only I was topless. He went into great detail about these dolls, explaining which were rare and which “came in almost every fucking wooden box.” Every time I reached for my blouse or looked at the time on the grandfather clock he interrogated me, asking me what I was doing. Finally, a friend sent a messenger boy to beckon and I was able to get dressed and go. I walked over to the door, but Martin wouldn’t stop talking. Standing there I couldn’t think of anything else to do but jiggle the door handle. With that action Van Buren finally took the hint that I was ready to get the fuck out.

I’ve never been happy about sleeping with Martin Van Buren, but, when I can make someone’s day by sharing how I fucked Fluffy, the whole thing seems worthwhile.

Is This A Toy?

Perhaps?

Perhaps?

It also goes on to say that this is hazardous to children under the age of three. Who exactly is the intended market then?

Thoughts?

A Shake Of The Fist To The man Who Heckled Wilco After They Finished Playing Impossible Germany

Granted, perhaps he was being ironic, BUT IT DID NOT WORK. After the aforementioned incident, a collective puzzlement that quickly turned to anger swept through the crowd, with no laughter in site. So I wag my fist and turn my back on you!

In any case, Wilco performed a great show at the Wolf Trap Theatre tonight, with Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band as the opening. Those are certianly two acts that deserve more than petty heckling.

Hipster Abraham Lincoln Reviewments: Discovery’s LP

Hipster Lincoln inline skates to be ironic.

Hipster Lincoln inline skates to be ironic.

Former Illinois Senator, Abraham Lincoln, is a resident opinionator here at the Company. From time to time he opinionates movies, music, & sometimes even other things! As Abraham Lincoln eloquently puts it himself, “I do these whenever it is Mary Todd’s time of the month. That time which happens every month when she forces me to try and be more “hip” with the younger generations and such.”

Here is his take on Discovery’s LP, the new release for Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij and Ra Ra Riot’s Wes Miles.

Buy it today for under 4 dollars here.

Ah, a record such as this truly reminds me why I liberated all those people back in the day and gave them their full rights of dance. Sure there were other rights, but I feel the dancing part was the most important, perhaps that is just the old beard talking again though.

I have been a fan of both the Vampire Weekend and the Ra Ra Riot ever since my son, Tad, introduced them to me while we were riding our horses (the only means of transportation back in my day, kids! Not even walking was invented until 1922) to the local supermarket to buy some organic oranges.

To be quite honest I did not naturally relate to the heavily campus and youth based lyrics, but by God I certainly acted as if I did! Certainly would not want to lose credibility, especially not in those days when even a slight misstep such as not relating to Vampire Weekend would have been an easy target of criticism for those Southern ruffians. Those damn Confederates were always scrutinizing my levels of hipness. By God it almost makes me glad I was shot so I no longer had to hear Robert E. Lee’s constant ramblings on how I was not wearing my keffiyeh just right!

But I digress…

This new effort is if not exceptional, as the two’s former works certainly are, at least quite good. Rostam shows great talent and musical wherewithal in every song layering complex noise after complex noise while also maintaining or purposely detracting from lovely rhythms.

The only problems I had with this record were a few moments of cliche/poppish song-writing and a consistent quality of sounding like nothing more than an EP rather than a final LP (as the record is even named).

In any case, this is certainly one of the best efforts of the year so far.

Lincoln Rating: 3 1/2 well-brimmed top hats.
