Loading ...My List: People Who Will Be Sorry When I’m Rich and Famous
I’m a pretty nice guy; at least, I like to think so. (Just don’t ask those other people who were in that video contest we had here a few weeks back.) Regardless, I try not to do horrible things to people, and I try to be responsible and courteous. If I say I’m going to call someone, I call them, with a few exceptions of course, like if I end up in the hospital with broken fingers and can’t dial my cell phone. (If my nose was smaller I bet I could dial with it but it just mashes the buttons.)
In the course of my life, I run into people who are just inexplicably rude, unprofessional, or worse yet — pretend to my face that they like me. This brings me to my main point today. I have a list. This list is people who missed out on the coolness of being friends with me because they were one of these types of people. When I think of this list, here are some of the people who specifically come to mind:
- Girls who say they will call/email me and never, ever do
I tried to think of who else would be on this list but got stuck. Seriously, this is most of them. Tell me if this has happened to you:
You meet a pretty girl (or guy if you prefer), she shares common interests in you, she isn’t married, she doesn’t have the Hep, and she talks to you like she really likes you. She even gives you her phone number or email (or business card, as it happens here in L.A.) Then you call, and get voicemail — no call back. I’ve even had some girls on Myspace who read my messages to them but just don’t reply. They don’t even tell you why. Even if you ask, “Hey, so why did you friend me but don’t ever talk to me?” or “Why did you give me your card, anyway?” (Yes, I’ve asked.) Sure, they add you as one of their 34,962 friends, but answer your mail? What a chore.
A lot of these girls I just want to be friends with (who will believe that?) or keep them as business associates as an actress I can call for later projects. Regardless, I’ve been blown off by more women than I can possibly count. And they will be sorry, very sorry, when I have buckets of money to swim in and I’m on the cover of every major magazine in the news stand. I bet they will say, “Gee, maybe I could have given that Steve guy a chance?” So they will dig up my card out of their enormous pile, or they will actually search Myspace for me, and they will give me a call, or an email.
And then… I won’t answer.
Loading ...I need your votes to be the next ROCK STAR!
You probably saw on Friday that they didn’t put my video up on time for this contest, Rockstar III, and now I am thousands of votes behind. I’m not sure how they are going to make this up to me to make it fair, but I need to catch up to be in the finals! I can’t believe they messed up like this, but now I’m a dark horse, an underdog, coming from behind…
Hey, everyone loves an underdog right?
Click here to vote for me please!
1. Click any “VOTE” button
2. Find “Steve Weese” in the bulleted list
3. Enter your email, click then…
4. CHECK your email for the validation! (It doesn’t count unless you do this.)
You can vote ONCE for each registered email! Look, I moved out here to make it big — if I get to the finals I will get some HUGE exposure. I’ve up till now been the “Actor who can rock” so this fits me great.
If you want, you can watch my Stalker video right here in higher resolution:
I’m a Stalker – Steve Weese
Yes, it’s a video where I am a Stalker. One of my favorite Carolina Rollergirls is in it, Violet Femme. So, it’s up to you all, my friends, my fans… random people who read this blog… help this poor, starving creative guy in Hollywood beat the odds!

Image via CrunchBase , source unknown zintin , on the iPhone Appstore, oh what a fun and interesting piece of world connectiveness ye are. With the exception of the 12 year olds constantly asking for, and posting mature content, you are quite an interesting take on the social networking genre. A good take in my opinion, on this ever so missing in quantity field (sarcasm much?) and the only thing I honestly feel is missing is the ability to add a friend without having to share your contact details. Start it up, set your name and status, and your browsing a list of people in the nearby area. Bored? Tap on someone and you can view their “wall,” a place where you can scribble something, post a picture or leave a note. Like a picture already on there? Tap it, hit options and choose to add it to your own wall. Someone put something on your wall you don’t like, or you feel may be illegal, delete it or report it right from your own wall. Wanna get to know someone better beyond their wall on zintin ? Offer to exchange your contact details. I haven’t had a chance to test this out yet, but so far no one has really piqued my interest in the past week on there to exchange with. There is even and option to filter out mature content, and when you post a picture, you’re asked if it’s mature or not, thank you very much for this addition. You honestly have no idea how many times I’ve given up on various crap over the years because of the 12 year olds constantly saying derogatory terms, or posting the same old Playboy pictures I’ve seen since the 60’s. There are also “City Walls” based on the ip address (wifi connection,) or triangulation of your cell towers for where ever you are. Travel around and leave your permanent mark on a virtual graffiti quest to tag the whole world. My opinion? Go out on your iPhone ’s and download zintin now, if you’re in the Louisville Ky area, find me and strike up a conversation, names Teh James in Tha Ville. Just don’t expect me to send you pictures of my wonderous vacation to the 7th moon of Saturn .

Fake Follow Is Stupid
Fake Follow is the social media equivalent of being at a party, running into someone you sort of know, having empty conversation with them before awkwardly being offered their phone number. You write the number down on paper because you intentionally left the phone in the car, and dump your pockets later. Friends shouldn’t let friends “fake follow”. If you really could care less what someone has going on in their feed, don’t click the button. It actually takes more effort to think about “fake following” someone you do not want updates from. Be lazy. They will not cry over you not following them (unless they already need help) and if you have enough people subscribing to you, they will probably realize you have notifications turned off. Advocating “fake follow” just makes you look arrogant, and possibly a bit distant from your readers. Is that the social part of social media/networking? I thought people who did the fake friend thing were on MySpace . Do you really want to be in the same category as Tila Tequila? Stupid “fake follow”. ——– Edit: Stupid spammer aiding “fake follow”.

Is Apple Nintendo’s Problem?
Is Apple Nintendo’s Problem?
Nintendo has seen a significant drop in profits lately and most say Apple’s mobile gaming platform is to blame. Nintendo themselves are even keeping an eye on Apple. Sony and Microsoft is no longer the thorn in Mario’s side. It’s the big “little i”.
Is Apple really the biggest issue Nintendo is facing or is it a larger issue? Most likely, a little bit of both. As a hardcore Nintendo fan, I can safely say that my favorite gaming company has failed me the past few years. It all began with the shoddy release of Twilight Princess, the lack of core titles for the DS and then the Wii games that were off-shoots of “Sports” started to move through the shelves.
What’s left for us? The Moms, families and kids are only going to enjoy their Wii for so long. Then, they will put it down for a new toy that’s promising family fun. I have it on good authority to say this since I’ve sold my Nintendo Wii. Why? Because my kids stopped playing it and moved on to something else.
Nintendo has forgotten about their core audience. They have been pumping out games for a brand new audience that were quite successful. You can only go so far with the “Wii-fit-sports-swimming pool-billiards-backyard party” franchise. Frankly, you can only go so far with any franchise. I have to admit, even Zelda is in desperate need of an upgrade. -
5 Awesome Nintendo character tattoos
5 Awesome Nintendo character tattoos
Like other uber geeks, we are the beautiful people and we have awesome taste in tattoos, clothing, games, tech, gadgets and nostalgia. A generation grew up on Atari, Space Invaders, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and the Mother of video game entertainment of the 1980’s – Nintendo. We proudly wear our dorky gamer badges on our bodies for all to see.
There are probably hundreds of thousands of Nintendo tattoos out there. We scoured the web to find our 5 favorite Nintendo character tattoos.
#5. Hey. Hey Listen!
Why Navi? Of all things, why Navi?! Because you said that as soon as you saw this tattoo. She’s embedded into your brain, the constant screaming of “Hey, hey hey listen!” and this brave man has made sure everyone will remember it. The tattoo is really well done, but we all hate him just a little bit.
#4. Stars and Ghosts, oh my!
This tattoo comes complete with invincible stars and a Boo. It’s quite obvious this girl loves her Nintendo. We love her half-sleeve and her stars. The original photo by Kotaku stated this woman’s husband was the tattoo artist. We love both of them just a little.
#3. 8 Bit Mario
Memories of throwing your controller when Mario died, moving the controller with Mario to make him jump and wanting to kill Toad when your Princess was in another castle come to mind when looking at this tattoo. The original tattoo is credited to artist Jon Poulson on Flickr.
Number 2 and number 1 are after the break

E3 2010 Predictions
E3 2010 Predictions
E3 2010 is a couple of months away. As usual, everyone is making predictions and speculating what huge announcements are coming. A lot of talk is revolving around Sony and Microsoft this year. There are hopes of long-awaited games finally coming out in the public eye.I wonder if Duke Nukem will finally come out? Sure. Right.
For E3 this year, I have a couple of predictions of my own. I am hoping that Nintendo redeems themselves and announces a new Legend of Zelda game. I see the game releasing during the 4th quarter of 2010. Gears of War 3 is another prediction. I don’t see it releasing in the 4th quarter of 2010. I see an announcement at E3 with the possibility of release in 2nd or 3rd quarter of 2011.
I asked on Twitter what your predictions for E3 are from The Geek Media’s Twitter and my personal Twitter. The answers after the jump. next
