Schick. Free your skin. Banana Boat Sunscreen Lotion. We’ve got you covered.

My ideal Nuffnang summer is one that involves sunny but cool and windy weather. I’m fat so I sweat easily, which means I’d rather be inside a room with air conditioning and an Internet connection rather than be outside where all the fresh air is at. But yeah, it’s summer so I do get the urge to go out and play every once in a while. As long as there are chicks wearing skimpy clothing getting drunk and wet. Haha I’m totally kidding! No, I’m not.

So yeah, if the weather’s not as humid as it usually is, I’d want to shave all my facial hair, as well as my head, and I’d probably put on some sunscreen lotion before going out to play in the sun. If the weather’s too harsh, though, I’d be cool with staying in and browsing photo albums on Facebook titled -=*~BoRa 2012~*=- or something.

Saw this exactly one year ago today. Appropriately enough, it was the day my future, my fate, and my world were adjusted like never before. It was my first date with Maggie.

I still remember some of the curses I mumbled as I drove to Makati because I hate Makati. But I had to pick her up.

For people who are used to reading stories about people getting superpowers from strange objects that crash landed on Earth like me, Chronicle only offers the “found footage” approach as something new. In some instances, the “found footage” element totally feels forced and unnecessary. However, it does add some level of awe to scenes were the kids are using their telekinesis, even though most of these superpower scenes look totally fake, which beats the whole purpose of the “found footage” gimmick.

By now, most of us have already seen the awesome extended version of the Avengers movie Super Bowl XLVI ad. Actually, I just finished watching it for the 17th time and I have a few thoughts (other than HOLY CRAP IT’S ONLY THREE MONTHS AWAY). Three thoughts to be exact:

Along with the main Avengers vs. X-Men mini-series, there’s going to be a tie-in series that may not really be essential to the story but it’s going to be essential for those of us who love violence. AVX: Versus will feature two fights in every issue and I can’t tell you how much I love this idea.

This is the stuff that sets forum boards aflame. Who’s going to win in a fight between Iron Man and Magneto? How about Namor and the Thing? Forget the main story. Forget the introspective view of secondary characters as seen in previous event tie-in series. This tie-in series is all about the fights and man, I am pumped! Here are some of the bouts I would love to see aside from the announced Iron Man vs. Magneto and Namor vs. Thing smackdowns:

1. Captain America vs. Cyclops

There’s a good chance that these two opposing generals will come to blows at some point during Avengers vs. X-Men and they’ll probably talk a lot while doing it. But I still want to see an entire half of a comic book dedicated only to these two leaders exchanging punches and hurtful words.
