You should be able to vote for up to 3 items. If I missed any (pulled these off Wiki), let me know, I will add. That's coming this Friday, because I said so. In the meantime, thought we'd look back at the movies of 2011, and yap about those.]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/movies/best-sci-ficomicgenre-film-of-2011poll/feed/ 4 http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/two-open-letters-of-complaint/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/two-open-letters-of-complaint/#comments Wed, 07 Dec 2011 04:54:38 +0000 RobbieRobTown http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=6305 Dear Kellogg's: You are no doubt aware that you are the manufacturer of Frosted Flakes. If you are not aware of this fact, you should be.  I am going to presume you are, indeed, aware. Of this fact.  You guys make Frosted Flakes.  Your "Frosted Flakes", which are puffed corn of some variety or another, have the unlikely mascot of an anthropomorphic tiger, who wears a scarf for some reason. This he does, and I can only surmise, because Tony is a gang member, or possibly a barnstormer.]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/two-open-letters-of-complaint/feed/ 1 http://www.thecorrectness.com/uncategorized/filling-in-for-tbinns/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/uncategorized/filling-in-for-tbinns/#comments Tue, 02 Aug 2011 17:42:35 +0000 Intern_Benji http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=5676 Okay so last Friday, at 4:30…right before the long weekend, I get a call from Tbinns, who hasn’t shown his face around the office for at least a week. It goes something like this. TBINNS: Hey Benji, what’s going on? ME: Not much, just wrapping up some stats, about to head out…what’s up? ]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/uncategorized/filling-in-for-tbinns/feed/ 11 http://www.thecorrectness.com/movies/in-defense-of-sucker-punch-which-is-in-fact-radtacular/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/movies/in-defense-of-sucker-punch-which-is-in-fact-radtacular/#comments Fri, 01 Apr 2011 21:02:59 +0000 RobbieRobTown http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=5096 There have been some mixed reviews for Sucker Punch, and I would like to do what we do best here and tell the negative reviewers why they are so very, very wrong. So very wrong. I saw Sucker Punch recently (in IMAX, where it was delightfully large, and verging on too loud...) and I can assure you that it rocked my socks so so hard my socks became molecularly unstable and evaporated out of my shoes. That's some serious sock rock.  I don't know much about Brownian motion, but i order for my socks to be rocked completely off some serious energy would have to have been harnessed, and then directed at my socks. I'm going to try and do this without spoilers, and just encourage y'all to get out of your basements and go see this film on the big screen before it disappears. Is this one of those positive reviews that I get paid for? AHAHAHAHAH, no, I just sincerely think people are missing some really impressive details in this film. I really liked it. ]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/movies/in-defense-of-sucker-punch-which-is-in-fact-radtacular/feed/ 11 http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/correctness-smackdown-awesome-undercard-gandalf-vs-santa-claus/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/correctness-smackdown-awesome-undercard-gandalf-vs-santa-claus/#comments Tue, 29 Mar 2011 09:33:16 +0000 RobbieRobTown http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=5041 Today's undercard pits two white bearded old men against each other in a battle to the death for the love of humanity. In this corner, over by your start button, (or for those of you more civilized, over by your finder icon in your dock) is Gandalf The Grey/White, Wizard King of the Lollipop Guild and whatnot! In this corner (if I understand the placement of competitors in wrestling or boxing correctly, and therefore somewhere over by your search window, or by a post-it note of who to call when your Dell crashes), is Santa Claus, Jolly Fat Greed Bringer! Let's meet our two warriors and see who truly is the beardiest battler!]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/correctness-smackdown-awesome-undercard-gandalf-vs-santa-claus/feed/ 13 http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/robbierobtown-and-the-curse-of-the-alphabetical-ladies/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/robbierobtown-and-the-curse-of-the-alphabetical-ladies/#comments Tue, 22 Mar 2011 19:32:40 +0000 RobbieRobTown http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=5006 Hello Correctoids. As you know, I maintain my own twitter feed, @RobbieRobTown, on which I occasionally tweet thoughts of tremendous importance. However, one such incident resulted in an inexplicable hack of my account... I think... Allow me to explain. I tweeted the following: "In Green Lantern Rebirth, they chase Parallelogram back into that big lantern on Oprah. Does that mean they have to fear The Colour Purple?" ]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/robbierobtown-and-the-curse-of-the-alphabetical-ladies/feed/ 1 http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/poll-results-who-should-have-won-team-smackdown/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/poll-results-who-should-have-won-team-smackdown/#comments Sat, 11 Dec 2010 17:51:43 +0000 admin_rock http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=4490 You chose... RobbieRobTown. I'll leave it to him to come up with the narrative of how he beat the X-Men, but I suspect it has something to do with Marmalade, and Kitty Pryde. Or possibly Kitty Pryde in Marmalade, with no one else around. Either way, I'm reserving an early copy.

We had agreed on strict terms, due to the nature of the alterations, which our office strongly advised against. In addition, on our post install visit, our quality control assistant Barry noted that you had failed to apply for the appropriate relaxations and permits, as you had stated you would. Normally, our office would handle these matters, but you were very insistent on this matter.]]> http://www.thecorrectness.com/correctness/to-doctor-josef-nefario/feed/ 2 http://www.thecorrectness.com/music/open-letter-to-the-15-year-old-with-the-run-dmc-t-shirt/ http://www.thecorrectness.com/music/open-letter-to-the-15-year-old-with-the-run-dmc-t-shirt/#comments Wed, 22 Sep 2010 18:32:09 +0000 admin_rock http://www.thecorrectness.com/?p=4053 All of this is a-ok, and normal. In fact, you wouldn't have even registered on my radar, except for the fact that you had on a RUN DMC T-shirt.
