The final post regarding The Weakest Link, EVER

(You guys are so sick of me posting about this, aren’t you? You try going on a game show.)
So, in case you didn’t catch the episode — I made it to the final round, make it to sudden death, and then I get asked this question:

The Host: “Ernie: What member of OJ [...]


How to React In an Earthquake in California’s Largest Commercial Office Building

(As experienced, oh, no less than two minutes ago.)

Briefly consider diving under your computer desk. Change your mind immediately when you envision your bosses boss, walking by your cubicle and seeing your sorry programmer ass curled up fetal position next to a bunch of computer wires.
Stand up and peer over the field of cubicles, [...]


Ernie’s God-Awful, Low-Quality Gay Film Festival

The nice thing about Netflix, besides the fact that you get to rent DVD’s on the Internet and have them delivered to your apartment, is the fact that you get to rent DVD’s and no one knows how embarassingly bad the movies are. (Spending a day at home earlier this week, sick to your [...]


Asian People Love Us, Too!

From Maggie: Black People Love Us. Oh. My. God.
The sad thing is? I could instantly write testimonials for, say, gaypeopleloveus.com, or asianpeopleloveus.com, or my speciality, gayasianpeopleloveus.com.

“When I’m at a gay bar, and an older White gentleman comes up to me, I love it when he tries to pronounce a couple [...]


LYD’s Last Attempt At Potty Humor

This is a year for firsts. Earlier this year, I broke out in hives. This weekend, including the day of my birthday: the stomach flu! Symptoms include nausea, vomitting, and diarrea. Non-stop diarrea. Non-stop, endless diarrea that makes you wake up every two hours, groggy and disoriented, as you [...]


hello kitty piggybank

The scene: a small get-together at Min Jung’s house last night. Don and Matte are two awesome bear friends I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know over the past couple of months. Don drives 4×4’s and Matte is a big, no seriously, BIG former college football player at an Ivy League [...]

Like Sex in the City, Only Gayer. Like That’s Saying Much.

Philo and Choire are back in business, updating their weblog into a magazine format. Good for them.
Now that I think about it, more and more people are expanding their personal websites into a more general format, maybe as a way to challenge themselves creatively. Maybe people are doing more “magazine stuff” because the [...]


ernie has yet another pre-freakout birthday moment

My 26th birthday is on Sunday. Here is my Amazon wish list. There, I said it. I was trying to think of a way to be witty and clever, in a “hey, that birthday story was witty and clever and I should buy Ernie something” way, but honest to God, my [...]


I am a gamer, and thus, a demographic

I don’t have cable television, so I’ve never really had the opportunity to check out G4TV, the 24-hour cable channel on video games, until a couple of weeks ago at my friend Chris’ house. I’m a video game junkie, so this pleases me — it’s enough for me to seriously re-consider getting cable. [...]


cookie monster for governor

Tomorrow is election day and for the first time in my entire life, I am registered to vote. Unfortunately, it’s going to be for two candidates I really couldn’t care less about. Do you vote for the special-interests guy blamed for California’s energy crisis or the conservative business man that I can’t relate [...]
