nude news: you gotta shoot 'em in the head!

A big thank you to Ciaran from Let's Get Physical for being my second fiddle for today's episode. The first show of 2010 and probably one of the strangest too. Here are the news links for Get Back To 8-bit of the 14th Jan:

If I die horribly in a terrorist attack, please be sure to not honour my memory by putting your junk in anything.

bonus: please hit up the 1:47 mark on this video for the appropriate response to this news by Crow T. Robot:

My advice for dealing with the fact the dream of Pandora won't come true? Fall in a well and die/get a girlfriend:

This is an indignity similar to surrendering to R2-D2's "special" brother:

There was a time where running around the neighbourhood in tights and your underwear on the outside would land you on a different kind of register, not the Superhero register:

But the king of faux heroes who isn't even pretending to be a hero must be the amazing Dr Megavolt:

what would ben parker do? well, better not do that

You filthy freaking nerds, prepare for my triumphant new year return as GET BACK TO 8-bit stomps your face and rescues your chaste self with a full show of the evil we do and the not so evil via songs all about heroes and villains, of both the super-powered and just asshole variety. Plenty of news on sex with robots, dealing with post-Avatar depression, the disabled criminal elements surrendering to robots and the peril of real world superheroes. Listen in tomorrow at 14:00 on subcity.org or download later at your convenience!

mr. freeze and captain cold kicking your ass.

It's a return to form! Get Back To 8-bit is back on Thursday the 14th January @ 14:00 with a focus on songs concerning heroes and villains, of both the super-powered and asshole variety. Expect some fresh news assaults from myself in You Gotta Shoot 'Em In The Head!, thus bringing you up to speed with the nerdiest of events which transpired over the Christmas break. So prepare to do battle with your feelings of apathy by listening live or downloading later on.
