At just a little over a month away, our yearly uber geek-out at San Diego Comic-Con is already promising to be filled with hijinks, spandex, and TOYS.
As the con has grown over the last few years with the explosion of geek culture, it’s become less important for our crew to stand in massive lines for panels and junkets, and more fun to scoop the exclusives, swag, and up and coming goodies from our favorite vendors. You heard me – disregard panels, acquire swag.

Started to listen to it at work, 2.6 seconds in and I realized I could probably be fired for any number of HR offenses. Fuck, I want to get drunk with these dudes. The trio of awkward crackers/rappers stick to the formula that’s worked so well for …

There was once I time where I wrote album reviews for Vice, earning shit-tons of hipster credits that I have yet to turn in to get my free fixie. Some shit ruled, some shit sucked.
