Off Topic: Left 4 Dead: The People-Watching Game

Posted July 3, 2009 at 1:07 AM by Threeboy

Left 4 Dead (L4D) is the latest video game offering from the game company Valve. Brando and I have a boner for this game (and coincidentally anything Valve makes). Moze & I in our boredom decided to create a real-world extension of the game.

We usually play during car rides – you could probably play at a coffee shop or patio, too. What's important is that there's a constant influx and a wide variety of people to choose from.

Full game rules after the cut...

Off Topic: I'm Just Sayin'

Posted June 30, 2009 at 12:12 PM by Threeboy

Don't worry, we're not doing a follow up to "I'm Just Saying" (yet?) this is a blog post about colloquialisms. We all know the saying "That's what she said" whenever someone says something vaguely sexual. Love it or hate it, it's made its way into the pop culture lexicon.

TN TV!: Ninja Sketches Delayed

Posted June 25, 2009 at 3:01 AM by Threeboy

Hey guys, I'm heading to Alberta (the Texas of Canada) this weekend and work decided to pick up at the last minute so we didn't get a chance to finish the post-production work on the final two ninja vids. We'll most likely release #3 later next week, and #4 the week after that.

Our contest isn't doing too well, we've only got one entry. If you guys ain't putting in the effort, maybe we'll stop putting in effort too! Just kidding

Beer poppers arrive this week - we'll have 'em on sale soon!

Off Topic: [TOPLIST] The Top 5 Work From Home Perks

Posted June 20, 2009 at 1:40 PM by Threeboy

The Rob & myself have been working-from-home for the past decade (Brando also recently joined the freelance fold). It can be hard at times but there are also many key befits that I'm not sure some of you are aware of...

Here are the top five!

5. Lunchtime Combos
Occasionally I stack my tasks at lunchtime. For instance if I have to grab some groceries, lunch, and deposit some cheques at the bank I can get them wrapped at lunch time and get home and back to work. More productive than a water cooler I can tell you that

4. Slow Cooker
Tasty tasty meals that are easy to assemble and then let sit there for 8 hours. They're certified safe so you can leave the house if you want to but it's nice being here in case the honey Dijon chicken gets all uppity.

3. Casual Fridays EVERYDAY!
You can work in pajamas (or less). Warning, if you get an unexpected visit from your landlord be sure to have pants on before answering the door (TRUE STORY).

2. Farting
Yep you can fart anywhere, anytime and don't need to answer to anyone or resort to secret techniques of the ninja.

...and finally the best work at home perk is:

1. Benefits
Masturbation is tax deductible.

You DO NOT want to see my businesses balance sheet.

TN Comic: It's Been A While!

Posted June 12, 2009 at 4:41 PM by Threeboy

Some of you may have noticed the first comic of 2009 - holy poop! Have we had longer hiatuses than that?

Brando says I'm not allowed to make any promises regarding an update schedule (with good reason) so no promises. I will however will reiterate that if you sign up to the RSS or Email Updates you'll automatically be notified whenever we make a new comic.

Also we gotta new URL & website in development. It's been in the plans for a while but we're finally starting work on it.

Still goin'

TN TV!: Ninjas, Cock & Balls - oh my!

Posted June 9, 2009 at 9:12 AM by Threeboy

We had some reports that the Cock & Balls A Capella Download for the Cock & Balls Contest wasn't working - it's been fixed so it should work now. Only one submission so far so if you throw together a remix your chances are pretty good.

We kicked off "Ninja Month" yesterday with the release of "Good Ninja / Bad Ninja: England Man" and it'll continue with new GNBN videos for the next few weeks. We won't be doing blogs for those releases so make sure you're signed up to one of our video feeds.

While we were at it we re-released the previous four GNBN videos in high quality. We're doing this for the new site we have under development. Eventually all our videos will be re-released in high quality.

Defeatou!

TN TV!: Podcast Optimized & Other Related Info

Posted June 7, 2009 at 12:13 PM by Threeboy

Our Podcast sponsor stopped sponsoring Podcasts so we decided to move the feed back to it's home, here on TrueNuff soil. While we were at it we upgraded the video quality for the newest generation of portable media players. The video resolutions have been updated to 480x360 or 480x270 (widescreen) - which ain't HD but should look good on modern media devices.

Off Topic: Don't Panic, It's Towel Day!

Posted May 25, 2009 at 10:40 AM by Threeboy

"Today is Towel Day. Don't forget your towel!

Towel Day is an annual celebration on the 25th of May, as a tribute to the late author Douglas Adams (1952-2001). On that day, fans around the universe proudly carry a towel in his honour."

They'd have done it on the 42nd of May but the dolphins ate the calendar.
