Contrary to what most people are saying on this site, LP are actually a good group. Yes they aren't as good as other Nu-Metal bands like Korn and Disturbed (I wouldn't even consider them Nu-Metal or any kind of Metal music really, more like straight up Rap Rock) but they are still a very creative, talented band that's a helluva lot better than most Rap/Pop crap on the radio today.
Linkin Park is not great, but still good. Too many people are just closed minded.

A fantastic graphic novel written by Marjane Satrapi based on her experiences growing up during and in the aftermath of the Islamic Revolution in Iran. Also made into an equally great animated film.
Usually Persepolis turns out to be required reading in school that is actually enjoyable

A freaking hilarious 1996 movie based on the MTV animated series Beavis and Butthead. The plot of the film finds the duo looking for their stolen TV and, in doing so, becoming involved in the plot of two crooks and end up becoming "the most dangerous men in America".
Mike Judge, who also is the creator of the series, naturally voices the duo (among other series regulars) in the film, while guest voices for the film include Bruce Willis, Demi Moore, Robert Stack, Cloris Leachman, Greg Kinnear, and David Letterman (though he was credited under a different name). The film's soundtrack includes music from White Zombie, Isaac Hayes, Rancid, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and AC/DC.
I was gonna go to a party tonight, but I didn't feel well so I ended up watching Beavis and Butthead Do America.

Early, iconic Manga/Anime series by Go Nagai from the late 70's. The story is about Akira, a shy, somewhat spineless teenager who discovers a demon mask from ancient Mayan civilizations and becomes a demonic hero setting out to fight other demons.
Notable fans of the series include Glenn Danzig and Rob Zombie.
Devilman kicks serious ass! If your into anime like Elfen Lied and Hellsing then this series is for you.

Fox network's sunday night line-up. Went through different phases/names before settling on the current one. Played great shows in the past like The Simpsons, King of the Hill, Futurama, and even non-animated shows like Malcolm in the Middle. Unfortunately the programming block has been ruined by many mistakes:
-The ongoing of The Simpsons to the point where it is unfunny
-The cancellations of Futurama, Malcolm in the Middle, and King of the Hill
-Seth Macfarlane's domination of the block: As of May 2011 there are four shows on the block and three of them are Macfarlane's (and he currently has a fourth one in production)
I haven't watched the Animation Domination sunday night block on FOX since they cancelled "King of the Hill".

Often called "war-pig", the intentionally ugly but extremely iconic mascot of heavy metal legends Motorhead.
Snaggletooth is as famous as the Misfits' crimson ghost or The Rolling Stones' lips logo.

Email service/search engine/news site (sort of) that does fairly good with the e-mail and search engine parts but is either passing some stupid story about a worthless celebrity either wearing something they consider weird off as news. When they do talk about real news, the comments section is always filled with republican nutjobs who have no idea what they're talking about.
I have a Yahoo! account. Good with emails, bad with everything else.
