Great News for Simpsons Fans

The show may be ending! Yay!

After 23 seasons (10 of them good) The Simpsons may be ending it's painfully long run due to contract negotiations. It seems that the voice actors are not happy with their $8,000,000 a year salaries being cut by FOX and negotiations for the 24th seasons have reached a standstill.

As a true Simpson's fan, this is great news. I feel like Terry Schaivo's husband watching the women (or in this case TV show) he loves slowly being kept alive by artificial means, while any shred of heart and humanity has left the shell of what it once was long ago.

It's time to pull the plug guys. End it. Put a bullet in old Bessie so she doesn't have to suffer anymore.

Then for good measure, but a bullet in ol' Family Guy while you're at it.

My Retro Gaming Room

Hi everyone, this is Matt from The Basement Vagrants. I wanted to make a short post today showing off a project that I started working on this week. It's not finished yet, and I'm hoping that it's only going to improve as weeks go by, but here is what I've got so far.

I present, my retro gaming room!

All the consoles you see here are hooked up and working. There are a few consoles I have that I haven't been able to hook up yet for various reasons (Sega Mastersystem, Intellivision, Genesis etc.) And yes, I was watching Spawn.

I'm working on getting more poster, older ones in particular to keep with the retro theme, but these will have to do for now. Posters will cover the walls eventually.

More pics to come when it looks even awesomer.
