REST IN PEACE H.G. GIGER.

Better known as Hans Rudolf "Ruedi" Giger or more popularly the guy that created the "Alien" passed away last night from complications of a fall at his home in Switzerland. A super talented dude - we won't even begin to touch upon his creative influences on art, design, cinema, and music. You will be missed by the creeps.

HE'S ROLLING SO HARD RIGHT NOW!

Imma let you finish but umm, this is just still the best rolling video of all time. Have a good weekend!

REIGN IN BLOOD!

R.I.P. Jeff Haneman. Your fans are missing you greatly. I don't know shit about Slayer except that it's one of the greatest bands of all time. Good weekend hanging with Ghostpizza here in SF, we have lots of special things in the works for you kids as well yeeEe haAwWw! Let's fuck this week up! So much to do in so little time! Let's get this work!

TIME'S UP!

CUT FOR BIEBER!

The only thing worse than paper cuts, are cardboard cuts. You ever get cut while putting a cardboard box together? That shit fucking sucks! I mean, getting your dick cut off is pretty bad too (shout out John Bobbitt), and so is getting cut in line. But probably the strangest type of cutting is the suicidal, self inflicted, fuck you some people have chemical imbalances I'm sad, upset, depressed and socially inept type. Which is why when 1 dumbass kid decided to post on the internet their strong disliking for Justin Bieber's new weed habit by cutting themselves, we decided to follow suit on what has become one of the worst (or best) online trends to start off the new year: #CUTFORBIEBER!!!! Go fucking kill yo' self!



Okay. So it was probably a fucking 4chan hoax. Still, some kids were dumb enough to start doing it, and still, these shirts are FUCKING HILARIOUSLY RAD. Our Super Special drop of #cutforbieber tees are finally up on our shop so umm yea, don't let these sell out cause we made like 5 shirts. MURDER WE WROTE™BABY!

TODAY'S SPECIAL!

Irony, fast food, photography, a touch of OCD & a beautiful color story = the work of Julia Ziegler-Haynes. Her latest photography project gives my creative dick a boner. OHWOW is pleased to announce the publication of Today's Special by the Brooklyn-based artist and chef Julia Ziegler-Haynes. her book illustrates the final meals or "special meals,” requested by 24 death row inmates on the eve of their execution. Her intention in creating this work is to examine the human condition through the contrast of capital punishment and the forgiving gesture of granting one last request.

Enjoy.





 

Fascinated with the subject of the last meal, Ziegler-Haynes undertook extensive and emotionally exhaustive research through the public records of death row inmates. She then selected meals and painstakingly recreated each, arranging or cooking items exactly to the recorded likings and specifications of each prisoner. A brief detailing of the inmate's crime and penalty appears toward the end of the book, beside a thumbnail of its corresponding image.

"Essentially, these prisoners had become guests in my home. And so, despite having been immersed in the hideous details of each crime, I repeatedly found myself feeling empathetic towards them. Especially those whose requests were so meager," states Ziegler-Haynes. For example, one photograph depicts a black unpitted olive, another, a single cup of coffee.

TRAGEDY!

Okay I couldn't help but name the post after a great song obviously for it's tragic irony. Well, it was either that or Stayin' Alive, you pick! Like really, talk about irony! This Music Mondays post is dedicated appropriately to whom I believe to be one of the greatest damn bands that graced our presence. I don't give what the fuck you say, if you don't like the Bee Gees you can go fuck yourself! Even makes me think about the first time I watched Saturday Night Fever as a kid...who would have thought dancing in tight white pants & platform shoes could be fucking manly right?



Damn you Travolta! Also need I remind you your parents were grinding & getting naughty in the clubs to a lot of this shit too hahaha!



So as you may have heard, Robin Hugh Gibb, one of the three singing brothers of the Bee Gees, died Sunday at the age of 62 from cancer complications. There ain't ever gonna be another disco era (could be a good thing lol), and there ain't ever gonna be another group's distinct sound that can comes close to these brothers. It's also funny to think they would write this damn following song & that one day I would spend 6+ years of my living in Massachusetts & now San Francisco! WTF...



I'll end this emo ass post with lyrics from another one of my favorite songs of theirs...makes me want to be nicer to girls & shit.

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And no I didn't forget about you Donna Summer, you Disco Queen you! Your Hot Stuff made a lot of women Work Hard for The Money, especially the Bad Girls. See what I did there? LaDonna Adrian Gaines (dope ass name) passed away this past Thursday from lung cancer at the age of 64. Alright, no more Creep Street posts about musicians dying for a while, shit is making me depressed. Back to work! <3

WHERE THE WILD THINGS WERE.

Maurice Bernard Sendak (June 10, 1928 – May 8, 2012). Brooklyn born.



It's been a real sad week for the Creeps...with all these fucking rad people dying and shit! Every year I get older I always have to ask myself – am I living my life to it's fullest? Am I good to those who appreciate me & are important in my life? Had I received enough n00dz from your daughters? Are there things I still need to accomplish? Youth is fucking amazing, never take that shit for granted.



That being said, today we celebrate the life of Mr. Maurice Sendak, better known for creating one of the greatest children's books I had the pleasure of growing up reading. It's kind of crazy to tell you that this book was my fucking bible as a little mark. I have this funny thing about children's books because I feel they are so sophisticated & written with multiple facets of life's lessons left for you to continually discover as you grow into adulthood.



They say your dreams are who you are. And that life is the real dream. Some twisted Matrix type shit right? Face Melter! Strange enough to this day I still believe I sail across seas into another secret land when I fall asleep. Maybe it's because I want to believe it. And maybe it's that Mr. Sendak believed it too. And making people believe in something you can't describe is what I define as true genius.

TIME TO GET ILL.

Like literally & ironically! :( Adam 'MCA' Yauch has been pretty ill for a while now and though it's been no secret he's been battling cancer...shit, we all hoped he'd win that shit in overtime. I remember I got to see the Beastie Boys live one summer & was like damn, I'm one lucky fuck....some kids in the future will never get to experience these rad fools! This one's for you. Brooklyn stand up!





My name is M.C.A. I've got a license to kill, Ayo what's the time? It's time to get ill!

SHE'S EYE CATCHING!

I seriously could not stop laughing as it got progressively more gross! SQUIRT! I think I'm sick...massive amounts of blood cause me to laugh uncontrollably. Then again, look at the company I run! The clip is actually from a fucked up Japanese movie (of many haha) called NAKED BLOOD. What will they think of next?!



Hurray for nastiness! But I'm better now – at least I haven't posted dead hookers in a while!



SORRY.

ALL EYES ON ME!

Since people won't stop talking about how Tupac melted their faces off at Coachella with his Star Wars hologram (especially if you were on acid)! Well, it wasn't a hologram. It was CGI motherfuckasSs CGI! But it was still pretty epic. What would be real funny is if Tupac actually did show up for real and said SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKAS! RESURRECTION 2 In stores next May! I kill myself...



"Isn't this the same technique they used for that 3D video game where you played a time traveling cowboy?" Damn being a teenager was so fucking fun...Here's to one of my all time Pac songs. THUG LIFE!

BURNING MAN!

No not the stupid desert hippie thing, like really, a burning man! And yes this shit was real.



As someone stated:
"I am from Hungary. This man used lots of drugs before this and he was also mentally ill. Firefighters tried to communicate with him for 40 minutes but he wasn’t able to tell his own name. Anyway, you can’t see the funniest part in this video: this statue is on a bridge, and he wanted to jump into the river. But he missed it, and fell onto the bridge. Nearly every week someone wants to jump from that statue. Yeah, we’re pros in suicide :)"

SHE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.

Another music great has passed away...



I think people need to understand that everyone has their angels, and even more so - their demons. Public perception is often skewed and people need to take a step back to realize that celebrity or not, rich or poor, man or woman that we all have unseen struggles, unseen pain, and unseen affairs. I hope when things are publicized in the news or media that there's 50% of you that develops a deeper desire to do some more research. Artists & musicians are very passionate people, and this passion is often associated with irrational & emotionally charged decisions. This passion is also indescribably what makes us beautiful as humans. And sometimes, it can become dangerous to ourselves & the people around us. We remember Whitney for her classic movies & even more her music & talent. Although the last chapter of her life & career was drowned in drug abuse & bad publicity – we can only hope she left us peacefully...



On February 11, 2012, publicist Kristen Foster revealed Houston had died at the age of 48 from unspecified causes. She was found unresponsive in her room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Police, fire, and paramedics were called. CPR was performed to no avail. The time of death was called to be 3:55PM pacific standard time. {wikipedia}

Unfortunately enough in this lifetime, nobody loves you, misses you, remembers you, TWEETS ABOUT YOU, or FACEBOOK STATUS' you, or forgives you until you are no longer around. 

Whitney Houston may you rest in peace.

Who is Bobby gonna beat now?! 

Too soon?!

KIM BE OUT!

Oh well. That dude kinda sucked anyway. No clue why the internet is geeking out like they liked the dude or something. Too bad his son doesn't know what the fuck to do with North Korea either. Then again, someone better figure out what to do with America too. Kim Il Jung, you will be missed by your fellow communist brothers. As for the rest of the "democracies", rejoice.

NOW THAT WE FOUND LOVE...

What are we gonna do with it?


Heavy D – 44 years young, rest well homie.

THINK DIFFERENT. 

 Well though today's news was not as of a complete surprise due to his health conditions, it was still sad to say goodbye to a true man of genius and innovation. I know the internet has gone nuts "emotionally typing" their so-called blessings & expressions of sadness, but Steve Jobs was a lot more than just Apple.

Apple was him.



-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the full text of the e-mail Apple CEO Tim Cook sent to his employees about the passing of Steve Jobs today.

Team,

I have some very sad news to share with all of you. Steve passed away earlier today.

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

We are planning a celebration of Steve's extraordinary life for Apple employees that will take place soon. If you would like to share your thoughts, memories and condolences in the interim, you can simply email rememberingsteve@apple.com.

No words can adequately express our sadness at Steve's death or our gratitude for the opportunity to work with him. We will honor his memory by dedicating ourselves to continuing the work he loved so much.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Jobs revolutionized the way PC's worked, and most importantly looked & felt to the consumer. I haven't been a PC user since 1997 & I have no intentions of ever going back. Even though it's difficult to believe that Windows still owns 91% of the market, I'm proud to be part of that snobby 9% of Apple geeks. So here's to a true thinker, inventor, and egomaniac with the all credentials of a truly creative man!

Steven Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) you will be missed.
Tim Cook you better not fuck up!

– R.I.P. 

BACK TO BLACK...

Amy Winehouse leaves us at 27 years young...

One of those damn talents you just always wanted to get the pieces back together...before they couldn't be put together anymore. Remember that before and after post I did way back? Sheesh. It's been real, stay tough you will be missed.



Hugs not drugs kids!

ANOTHER LIFE...

Live life to the fullest! Unfortunately Bam Margera's buddy Ryan Dunn died at the young age of 34 Sunday in a car crash (see full story at http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1666021/jackass-ryan-dunn-dead.jhtml). And because I'm another internet guy that pretends to know him and be bummed out yet still eat my lunch perfectly fine like the rest of you, this post is for those who knew him best. Rest in Peace, you will be missed.

FREE WILLY!

R.I.P. Willie James Huff better known as The Funky Chicken a.k.a. Rack Em Rack Willie.

OH SHIT...

And the fucked up part is this weekend, we were making fun of people riding these stupid things (with helmets on....you know, in case they crashed...)

Via NPR - "Jimi Heselden, the owner of Segway apparently drove one of the personal transport devices off a cliff and into a river. He was killed. Police say they do not suspect foul play."
It was a pretty funny headliner I have to say, though you know, death and all is really nothing to laugh about. Then again, if I had to choose between laughing and crying...Jimi, this one's for you! Don't sweat that shit homie you got a lot of people following your...um..path?





But seriously, with all modes of transportation, how can you take any of them serious?
