ShaunCO
I have a new short film titled “ShaunCO – Response to Investor Inquiries.”
By the way, fiberglass insulation is itchy.
Annoyance Video Night
Tomorrow night (June 20th) at 8pm, there’s the Annoyance Video Night at the Annoyance Theatre, a showcase of crazy cooky nutty videos submitted from talented people around Chicago.
I have a film in it, so come on by!
Monster Movie Article Up
I have an article up on The 10 Types of Movie Monster Outbreaks.
If this title sounds rather definitive, it is only because I am an expert on this, being the original director of Night of the Living Dead before it was renamed Sex in the City 2.
Hand Punishing
It was titled “10 Controllers that Will Hurt Your Hand” but now it’s 10 Incredibly Hand Punishing Game Controllers. I’m not sure which is more of a euphemism. Then again it is on Topless Robot and the content is the same. Read it, won’t you?
7 Celebrities That Would Make Awesome SmashTV Contestants
I have a new list up on Topless Robot. It was suggested by one of the readers and it was a pretty good suggestion: Celebrities as Smash TV contestants.

As you can see, it involved a little Photoshop on my part. My personal favorite is the picture of Cheney on Mutoid Man’s head. It just fit so beautifully:
I will say the picture that was most trying is this one:
I mean, that’s me, of course. Can you imagine how many times I had to take a picture of myself looking AS SEXY AS POSSIBLE!??! Really.
How to Fail
I have put a portion of my book on How to Fail up on HarperCollins “Authonomy” website.
Please take a look at it if you are so inclined.
I started writing it in 2006, meandered on through 2007, then finished in 2008. Sent out a lot of query letters to publishers and did not succeed in getting it published, so I kinda let it sit there. So, here it is on this strange and interesting website that HarperCollins put up.
Tweets gets you in Ad Copy
I posted this today on Twitter:
I highly recommend the X-mini iHome Capsule Speaker from @thinkgeek. It’s a tiny sound enhancer that looks like a Cybertron hamburger.
You know, on a lark. Moments later I get this reply from John Frazier:
@doctorfailure OMG, what a great quote! Can I use that in our product copy?!
So, I say yes, and so my quote is now attached to the product:

I was asked if I got compensation for this – no I did not. For one, I didn’t want to (it’s pretty neat) and for two, that’s ridiculous to assume I could get paid for tweets. I’m not Ashton Kutcher. No, I’m not linking to his Twitter feed, you know what it is already.
Bill Eats Too Much Pizza
Here now is yet another in my series about Bill Binder eating. This time he eats a 23″ pizza with a friend, Jose Gonzalez and…I won’t spoil what happens. This video was shot by Nina Miller, who is an awesome person.
Tamale Sepp Thesis Presentation
My friend Tamale Sepp is doing her MFA Thesis presentation this week, and you should go see it if you happen to be in Chicago. I helped out with all the video editing.
