I'm at karstaag-reborn now. Fuck it. Try to get rid of me, will you...!

[karstaagskookykastle-blog]

Tumblr won't let me log in on PC anymore without resetting my password, and my Hotmail account tied to this got hacked and Microsoft won't let me use it. So I can't change my password. I have no idea how I'm still logged in here on mobile. My blogs might be dead, guys. If so, so long, I guess. I'm too old and too tired for this.

This one is in English. It’s about how Dschinghis Khan wants his son to be a warrior prince, but his son just wants to rock and roll all day.

The weird thing is, it’s obvious that all of that contemporary folk-ballad metal that comes out of Germany and Northern Europe pretty much exists because of this coked-up super-nonsense.

And I’m not saying this is bad. I mean, deep down inside, I think...

...I kind of love it.

It’s just that my brain wasn’t ready today to find out there was Genghis Khan-themed disco.

How could it be? Ever?

[karstaagskookykastle-blog]

Oh god. There is more of this.

I guess this was their theme song? It’s about “Dschinghis Khan.” Who, according to this, was some kind of yellow-face racist stereotype disco wizard.

Germany...why?

Why?

Edit: I’ll just say one thing, and let your imaginations do the rest:

“Game of Thrones Musical.”

“Go to Facebook “#DawnSavesWildlife.”

Because animal rescuers use a lot of Dawn detergent to wash off animals covered in goo from oil spills, because that’s how “tough on grease, not on hands” Dawn is.

Fine, fine.

But here’s the thing.

That tanker that spilled was carrying crude to the refinery, where they were going to turn it into plastic to make...the bottles they put Dawn in.

The bottles that don’t biodegrade, and it’s too expensive to recycle them. So they end up in landfills. Or, in less developed countries, they just get dumped into the ocean.

There are entire islands in the middle of the Pacific, just made out of Dawn detergent bottles India and Indonesia didn’t know what else to do with.

So Dawn, cleaning oil off a ducky doesn’t exactly win you the Lorax Earth Buddy Award, here.

Any time you think today’s Eurovision is goofy and crazy, remember what it looked like in 1979.

This was the German entry. A themed disco band based on Genghis Khan, singing a song about Moscow.

And no one cared, except Australia, where it was NUMBER ONE FOR SIX WEEKS.

I’m not making any of this up.

[karstaagskookykastle-blog]

Of course, then I have to rewatch THIS video.

[karstaagskookykastle-blog]

Yes, every time I reblog that dancing Eggman video, I will then repost the Boney M. Rasputin video, and be amazed by it.

Because I just...I am.

And I always will be.

It still looks like a Tim & Eric sketch.

You could not intentionally do what they did this well here.

why do things aimed at “gamers” look like that

[karstaagskookykastle-blog]

...Has anyone noticed that a lot of the “new” Star Trek Federation ships look like giant angry metal sperm?

Voyager started this:

Then there was the Enterprise-E:

Then the stuff they’re doing in Online:

I thought the whole entire concept here, going back 50 years, was that it was a flying saucer with rocket parts glued to the bottom of it. Because it flies in SPACE, where there isn’t any air and hardly ever any gas resistance, so it doesn’t have to be aerodynamic.

Plus, at warp speed, they’re in a bubble flying through subspace, which is why they can go 1000 times the speed of light and not immediately turn into a sun and explode.

You can literally shape these things any way you want, and any design is going to be just as fast as any other design, assuming it has the same engines. That’s why way back they made some of them look like this:

Which means, sure, you CAN make them look like giant molded angry metal space sperm. But you don’t have to. Which makes me wonder why the hell anyone would.

“BUT IT’S FOR HARD TERRESTRIAL LANDINGS SO THE SAUCER WILL BE AERODYNAMIC AND CAN STEER WHEN IT FALLS!”

When it falls.

...You DO know that if you’re entering a planet’s atmosphere from space, the ONLY WAY you can safely reduce speed is by air resistance, right? Like, in that case, you would SPECIFICALLY WANT a giant flat round vessel, so it could act like a giant flat metal parachute and slow you down. That’s why the Russian / NASA landing capsules are shaped like this:

It’s bell-shaped. The bottom goes in first.

Remember the shape of the space shuttle?:

It would come in underside-down. Those wings were shaped like they were partially to give it surface area to “brake” on. And even then, it had to loop around the entire planet in giant s-curves like four or five times, just to slow down enough to do a maneuvered landing.

Like, even if you’re going to try to fly it down to a safe landing, you have to cut your speed from like 30,000 miles per hour of orbital speed to like a couple thousand at least, in an insanely short amount of time, just to be able to maneuver the damn thing so any turn you make won’t take 600 miles to complete.

In that case, you would want nothing BUT a giant flat round saucer. A sperm head isn’t going to do shit for you there.

Yes, I KNOW Star Trek isn’t real life. But because it isn’t, that means there’s even LESS REASON for people to be making all the ships look like giant sperm because of “aerodynamics.”

...Plus, Starfleet is a SCIENCE and EXPLORATION outfit. It’s not a fucking state-sponsored battle navy. Or are we all just such raving nationalist lunatics now that we don’t give a fuck, we just want the series to be humans with nice teeth in black uniforms, shooting snarling wrinkle-heads in the ass with space lasers until they let us mine everything?

Because that really seems to be all the fuck anyone is doing with this anymore. And that is literally 180 degrees in the wrong direction from the entire conceptual POINT of this series.

Even when Kirk was running around calling himself a soldier and groping everyone, he still stopped to consult with his alien science officer and conflict-hating doctor before he fired torpedoes. Even in the 60s, they fucking TRIED.

You kids and your angry stupid sperm ships.

I didn’t see the last movie, and I won’t. The first one was space hipsters emo-lasering aliens for barely-explained reasons.

Star Wars seems to care more at the moment about scientific exploration and diplomacy than Star Trek, and that’s just mind-boggling.

Especially since the same mugging chucklehead is in charge of both series now.

It’s supposed to be about science. You don’t need sperm-shaped war frigates to study space. NO WONDER everyone keeps attacking us. You stupid assholes.
