Album Cover Illusions via SleeveFace

Pantera SleeveFace Album Cover

The Feed by G4tv recently featured a post as a Nugget From the Net on a site called sleeveface.com that features people holding up album covers in such a way that gives off the illusion that the album is part of the resulting photograph. The picture above shows the Pantera album cover of a man getting punched in the face and the user filled in for that body… you should get the idea. It’s a pretty cool idea and the ones they have over there so far are pretty well done. The Trumpet will be keeping up on this site and bringing some of their best back here to share.

The Hunt for American Awesomeness

In case you can’t remember, The Hunt for Red October is fucking awesome. It’s been playing on AMC lately.

Why is it so awesome, you ask?

To keep it short, it is for the simple reason that the Russian sub captain, Marko Ramius, has had enough of the USSR’s bullshit and he’s ready to float his ass into NYC and maybe go to Montana. And he’s bringing that glorious warship with him. If you’re going to defect, that’s the fucking way to do it. The only way to one-up would be to do it with a fucking aircraft carrier… Honk the horn as you park that bitch next to the Statue of Liberty: “BUH BUH BITCHES!”

What else is cool is that he tricks his crew into bailing out from the sub. Ramius (with Russian accent): “Sorry, guys, I know your feeble minds cannot comprehend sweeeeeet nature of American girls at American dance club, so get the fuck off my boat….” And off they go on their little rafts, probably to be deported back to the old USSR.

You don’t hear of movies with American captains defecting. It should be obvious as to why. But in case you forgot, it’s because WE’RE FUCKING AWESOME.

Bro Taguchi adds:

Don’t forget the audacity of the entire plot: I’m [Ramius] such a badass that there’s some credulous little punk in the bowels of a CIA office with no windows studying my every move like he’s following a true champion…which he is. I’ll just wait for him to come bail us out when we get stuck…the “buckaroo”

Check this movie out–again–when you have a chance.

Thanks, FEMA.

Apparently FEMA thought they had been too passive during Katrina, so they thought they would become active and provide carcinogenic formaldehyde-laced trailers to these people. What’s FEMA’s next trick, to pin the victims to a giant tray and let some high schoolers slice and dice em’?

FEMA dissect

The kicker, of fucking course, is that they lied about about the risks of the formaldehyde.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency manipulated scientific research to play down the danger posed by formaldehyde in trailers issued to hurricane victims, according to an investigation by congressional Democrats.”

Yes, the nightmare of Katrina continues, unfortunately. Arrrghhhh.

“Huckabee challenges Romney over fried chicken”

I ain’t no Republican, but even if I were, I wouldn’t be votin’ for nobody who doesn’t know how to eat KFC. Hell, I’d rather vote for Jabba–we know he can get it done.

Who better to lead a nation of husky people than someone who can house KFC?

Huckabee is certainly justified in going after Romney on this.

Shit, I’m surprised he didn’t order a Snacker. Bro Taguchi will certainly show Romney how to order–and to destroy–some KFC. I’m sure Pumpkin has strong views on this, as well.

Just goes to show you how strong Romney’s tea is:

All this has made me very hungry. And very, very cranky. I hope Romney gets a rating of zero Taguchis.

New York Giant Player is a Lamb Castrator

Grey Ruegamer New York Giant Lamb Killer

I just found an article that shows a backup player named Grey Ruegamer for the NFC Champion New York Giants castrates lambs with his teeth in the off-season. With all the Tom Brady talk leading up to the Super Bowl, I thought this was a funny article to surface days before the “big game”. This guy is a backup lineman on the underdog team and it is about biting the junk off of animals…that is pretty much a non-story. Oddly enough this guy won a Super Bowl with the New England Patriots a few years back…which makes it a Good Morning America “feel good” story.

Who are these guys?

A friend of the Trumpet–who nonetheless would not want to be associated with the antics of the Trumpet–once found this picture tucked away in a book. Click on the thumbnail for true awesomeness:

metal dudes

Questions abound, my friends.

1. Who are these guys?

2. Where do we get our hands on their tape? Note that there are two barely visible creases in bottom half of the picture. The original picture fit a tape case perfectly. These guys were passing this out as their demo pic. Amazing!

3. Who’s who? I think that it goes, from left to right: bassist, lead singer, guitarist, and then drummer. The lead singer is the top dog of this outfit, and I assure you that he insisted on being THE GUY WITH THE DRIPPING BLOOD.

Notice that the drummer is taking a bite out of the upside down cross. I kinda doubt that that will tack on any penalty to his sentence in Hell, but maybe the Gatekeeper will bring up that move as a point of interest. At any rate, I’m sure I will find out since I’m headed there, too. (Although I don’t believe it, since Hell is one of the biggest pieces of bullshit we’ve ever conjured…)

4. Where are they now? I’m betting that a few of them are high-powered lawyers and university deans…

5. Where in the hell do you get spikes that big? Does dad make them for you in the workshop? “Well, son, I don’t understand, but I’m glad you have some kind of goddamned hobby…”

6. Are these guys friends with Tipper Gore?

If you or any of your friends know these guys, contact us ASAP. Bro Taguchi and I will need to hear the tape immediately.

Stallone’s Rambo Kill Count Biggest Yet – Thanks HGH

Rambo

On Friday I saw the new Rambo movie starring and directed by Sylvester Stallone. I bought the Ultimate Rambo DVD Collection at Best Buy and it came with a free ticket to the new theatrical release…so really it cost me about $10-$12 for three DVD’s and a ticket to the new movie… as good as that sounds, I may have been jobbed by still paying that much. Anyway, the movie is super short and Sly looks like a douche his brother Frank at the beginning of the movie with his highwater pants and loose fitting clothing. The plot is extremely blah and unbelievable and the acting is dreadful and cliché. That being said…when I woke up about midway in, Sly was buff and muddy, and killing people like crazy and *poof* I am now transported back to the old-school and am eating Rambo up.

His kills are extremely over the top including blown off limbs, chopped off heads, and torn out throats. I lost track of how many people were killed in the movie after about 3 so I looked it up. Little did I know that Rambo death stats are readily available across the net and I gathered ours from DarkHorizons.com who gathered theirs from other sources (on their page).

236 is the total kill count number of this film… the good guys only had a +10 k/d ratio (Halo Reference) and Rambo accounted for just at 35% of the total kills in the film. There are over 2.5 kills per minute in this film. Ironically Rambo never parlayed any of this straight manliness into any tail in any of the movies. In fact the main woman in the film is married and he appears to not be interested in a the only hot woman in the jungle.

Is the kill count a product of Sly being all ‘jacked up’ on HGH? I don’t know anything about human growth hormone except what Roger Clemens and friends have lied said about it. Chances are you just get huge Rambo man-titty-balls and no real side-effects. Regardless it is notable that athletes are in front of congress, getting in trouble, losing work and such for using H.G.H. but actors can get swoll for movies with no consequence… even endorsing it’s use. Either way I don’t care, I’ll stick with the seasonal McRibs to get big.

New Kids On the Block Back On the Block

New Kids On the Block

Just like Star Wars, Spice Girls, Coca-Cola Classic, Pumpkin owning a dog, the Oakland Raiders, and all things ONCE arguably good; reportedly the New Kids On the Block (NKOTB) are coming back again.  This is a HOT MESS.  I didn’t make it up, and only part of that picture is photoshopped.  I am not hoping for them to fail…just NOT to catch back on.  Please no more Joey McIntyre or Jordan Knight solo albums…Marky Mark Wahlberg’s brother Donnie Wahlberg is a decent actor – this may hurt that credibility, and also who is Danny Wood anyway?

 We saw the Diplomats of Solid Sound at the Mill last night.  That’s a band you should gather your peeps for every time they’re in town.   And of course the ladies are…uh…entertaining.  I like how the fellas are all business in their suits.  Can’t tell you bout it…gotta go see ‘em.  They draw the ladies to the dance floor…nuff said.  They get 4.5 Taguchis.
