TDK ST800 Review (Or the responsibility of taking care of stuff I don’t own)

For some reason, people think I’m a reliable person to entrust with their electronic equipment. And they’re even willing to lend me their expensive headphones for me to review. While this is an amazing thing (people never trust me with ANYTHING before, especially not their daughters) I am scared shitless of breaking stuff.

Which brings me to this review. I was sent a TDK ST800 HiFi headphone for review, and it’s a loaner, which makes it worse, because what if I break this shit? Entrusting me with your stuff: big responsibility for Ade, and it might make my head (and loins, but don’t quote me on that) explode.

Anyway, I did review it for Technogra.ph, so you might as well go over on to that site and read my pseudo-expert review on these pretty nice cans. Clickety-click for my TDK ST800 review!

Shameless Plug Time: Gig on August 27! [Bee Healed 4]

Hello there, readers, or whoever is left reading this blog. I’ve got a lot of new things in life I want to talk about with you, like my new-found love for running (coupled with the realization that I’m about to hit 30 in a couple of years, and being a fat lazy fuck isn’t going to work for me anymore) and if you want to have fun watching a fat sweaty guy drive himself to near-collapse, you are more than welcome to join me run or jog or crawl on weekends.

But I’m not here to talk about that. If you must know, I also play the bass, and my band, Lose Your Beer Belly, has a gig on the 27th. It’s a benefit for Kythe, a charity that helps kids stricken with cancer. Yes, this blogger is doing something socially worthwhile. What, you think I sit around in one corner shouting all sorts of synonyms of penis all day? Well, yes, I do that, but that’s not the point.

Anyway, we’ll be playing with other awesome bands such as Mayonnaise, Delara, The Out Of Body Special, Maryzark, Nyctinasty, NATF, Dhruva Tara, Epiphany, Evenstar, Acoustica, Sven, Lumbayao, and The Royal! Entrance is 150 pesos, but you get a free drink!

So, remember, August 27 at Casa Nami Surf Pub (at 28 Jupiter St. Bel Air Village, beside Fiama), we’ll be playing.  See you there!

Need more details? Head on to the event page on Facebook!

JAYS v-JAYS Review

When Rico first asked me if I want to review a pair of headphones for Technograph, I couldn’t believe it. I mean, somebody actually entrusting me with a piece of expensive electronic equipment – that’s new. Since Rico thinks I have quite the credentials for reviewing a pair of headphones—mainly because I have a band, prefer lossless audio over regular MP3s, and consider myself as kind of a budding audiophile [not really] — I was given the v-JAYS for me to review. I still think he’s crazy for letting me review it, though.

Overall, I think the v-JAYS are a solid pair of headphones, despite the really awkward name. I have v-JAYS on my head!

Here’s my full review over at Technograph. Clickety-click!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 [Review]

I remember the time I bought my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows clearly. Well, I did blog about it and I read that post every so often so there’s just no way I can forget my experience, but still. After I bought my copy of the book the day it was released, I went straight home and read it. As I finished the novel, I realized that I was just about to be late for work. Sleep? Fuck that. I went to work groggy as hell and doing a fuckton of things wrong. I didn’t care. I just finished the seventh Harry Potter book – nothing else mattered.

And now, four years later, I’m watching Deathly Hallows Part 2 – eighth and last film of the Harry Potter film franchise (unless they decide to reboot the damn thing, like what Hollywood does to so many things as of late) and is based on the final, epic book (DUH). However, I’m not going to be one of those fans who will go “Harry Potter is over – a part of my childhood died!” because I was in college when I started reading it, and that sort of distress over childhood memories is reserved for Turtles Forever and when Mirage sold the rights to the TMNT to Nickelodeon to make a possibly craptastic TV show.

I’ll Be Texting Everyone Non-Stop Tomorrow, Thanks to Globe SUPERUNLIALLTXT25

As a guy who loves bugging people whenever I am online (replies usually range from “SHUT UP, ADE” to “COOL PLEASE TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE INTRICACIES OF THE IMPACT OF THE YELLOW OVAL ON BATMAN’S SUIT ON THE 1960′S COMIC BOOK INDUSTRY – NO, I MEAN STOP BUGGING ME”), I get a massive feeling of withdrawal whenever I’m offline and have no access to Yahoo! Messenger.

So imagine how awesomed out I was when I heard that I can now text all my non-Globe subcriber friends starting tomorrow with Globe Prepaid’s SUPERUNLIALLTXT25 promo! So I get a day of free unlimited texting to all networks, plus 1 hour mobile internet! What a deal! All I have to do is to text UALL25 to 8888!

Prepare your phone inboxes. I’ll be bugging you starting tomorrow.

  • Hi, I’m Ade…

    ...and I don't know what I'm doing here.

    Oh, wait, this is a humor blog. I blog here. Yes, folks, I am , blogger extraordinaire. I write about deep and introspective stuff, like dick jokes, the size of the gazongas of that girl two feet away from me, my band that nobody cares to listen to, and how stupid the traffic is today on the way to work. Exciting, life-changing stuff!

    No, really, please stick around. I need new friends.
