BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL! I HAVE THE POWER!!!

NO NEEDING FOR PANIC I HAVE FABULOUS SECRET POWERS!!!

According to ComScore.com, while new social network users in North America seem to be leveling off, the global trend shows that sites such as Facebook and…well, mostly Facebook, are gaining new members in the parts of the world where I’m pretty thankful I wasn’t born.

From Information Week:

The number of new users in the Middle East and Africa has risen by 66%, while the number of new users in Europe rose 35%. In Latin America, the number of new users on social networking sites rose by 33%.

Facebook.com has held the top spot among social networking sites worldwide since April 2008. The site experienced 153% growth in the past year, due in part to its use of natural language interfaces, ComScore reported. Most of Facebook’s visitors (49 million) still come from North America, although Europe appears to be catching up, with 35 million users. Growth in North America stood at 38%, while European users grew by 303% and worldwide users quadrupled, according to ComScore.

Finally the rest of the world is catching up on wasting their time. YAY INTERNET!

Usually I love the immaturity that spawns from bullshit band situations like this. There’s a certain art, however, to going about making yourself look good when you’re in a position like bass player Max Green is in now. How hard can it be to be the better man when the other guy in question is in jail from skipping parole, having battery charges and was in a brawl that left a kid dead? Well, I’ll let his blog do the talking…

To Ronnie Radke formely of Escape The Fate
Current mood: fuckin over it

I REALLY HOPE THAT RONNIE LEARNS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR HIS OWN ACTIONS BECAUSE HE NEVER EVER HAS, AND THAT WAS ALWAYS THE REASON FOR PROBLEMS IN THE BAND.
HE WENT OUT TO THE DESERT THAT DAY, HE BROUGHT A WEAPON AND HE CHOSE TO NOT QUIT DOING DRUGS.
ALL THE WHILE I PRACTICALLY BEGGED HIM NOT TO GO TELLING HIM HOW ITS NOT WORTH IT AND WHO CARES.

All capslock? UNLEASH THE FURY!!!!!

AND AS FAR AS ME BEING THE CULPRIT AND DESERVING TO BE IN PRISON INSTEAD OF RONNIE…….WELL THATS THE BIGGEST LOAD OF SHIT IVE EVER HEARD, I DIDNT BRING A WEAPON TO A FIST FIGHT, I DIDNT TELL MY FRIENDS TO COME BACK ME UP AND TELL THEM TO BRING THEIR GUNS, I DIDNT STEAL MY DRUMMERS BAND DEBIT CARD AND SPEND ALL OF EVERYONES HARD EARNED MONEY ON DRUGS AND THEN LIE AND ACCUSE OTHER PEOPLE OF IT. AND I DONT HAVE A RECORD FOR DRUGS AND OTHER SHIT.
AS A MATTER OF FACT I DONT HAVE A RECORD FOR ANYTHING AND I HAD NO INVOLVEMENT AT ALL IN ANY WAY WITH THE EVENTS THAT HAPPENED THAT DAY IN THE DESERT.

AS FAR AS PEOPLE SAYING RONNIE NEEDS A 2ND CHANCE AND ITS NOT FAIR, WELL HES HAD WAY TO MANY 2ND CHANCES, AFTER REHAB, AFTER THE INVOLVEMENT IN THE MURDER, AFTER THE PROBATION, AFTER GETTING KICKED OFF TOURS FOR DELIBERATELY STARTING PROBLEMS WITH THE WRONG PEOPLE AND ABOUT A MILLION OTHER TIMES AS WELL.

SORRY RONNIE OR WHOEVER WROTE THAT BLOG FOR HIM, BUT YOU WERE NEVER THE BAND, PERIOD.
YOU CAN THINK YOU ARE AND THAT YOU DID EVERYTHING ALL YOU WANT, BUT YOUR WRONG!!
YOUR A LEGEND IN YOUR OWN MIND, AND NOW THAT YOUR NOT IN THE BAND ANYMORE WE CAN ACTUALLY ACT LIKE A REAL BAND AND GO ON TOUR AND LEAVE THE UNITED STATES, LIKE HOW WE JUST WENT TO NEW ZEALAND AND AUSTRALIA.

ILL NEVER LIVE IN YOUR SHADOW AND I WOULD NEVER WANT TO, I DONT RESPECT YOU AND I DONT ADMIRE OR LOOK UP TO YOU IN THE LEAST BIT OF ANY WAY.

NOT YOUR FRIEND,
MAX GREEN

Kinda TL;DR, but I know the fan-girls will appreciate it.  I listened to their music for the first time yesterday, and needless to say I wasn’t too impressed.

In defiance against both the will of man and God, somehow Jenna Jameson has conceived a child. This is a shocking twist of events in the scientific community, as a team of NASA engineers routinely goes into her uterus and sterilizes with flamethrowers.

She’s apparently pretty stoked on the whole issue, though. From the internetz:

“She had a bunch of meetings and things planned for Fashion Week, including meetings for her own line, but she’s postponed everything,” said our source. “She’s completely thrilled, this is something she’s wanted for a very long time.” Jameson miscarried during her marriage to Jay Grdina, whom she divorced in 2006. She also once failed with in vitro.

Her boyfriend, UFC badass Tito Ortitz, is probably someone that would take offense to internet goons bashing his girlfriend and baby, so in the spirit of goodwill, CONGRATULATIONS!

proof. thanks Ms. Nickels.

Synthesis has seen its fair share of interns. They roll in and out like kegs on back to school week. But every now and then, we’ll hire one that passes this test.
