T-Mobile And HTC Holding Special Event June 8th “Showcasing 3 New HTC Phones”

FILED IN gadgets No Comments

With plenty of reasons to suspect a June 8th launch of the HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile we’re still awaiting official word from T-Mobile herself before calling that an absolute. However, a recent tip from an anonymous individual directed us to a showcase T-Mobile is holding in Houston, Texas on June 8th to “showcase 3 new HTC phones…”  Billed as a launch event it’s timing on the 8th is either incredible coincidence given the Sensation 4G rumors or the best case of random selection I’ve ever seen.

What’s really interesting is the hint that “3 new HTC phones” are going to be shown. So what might we see at this event? Our best guess is of course the HTC Sensation 4G but what else? A recent eWeek.com story proposed the idea that the HTC ChaCha with it’s dedicated Facebook button is heading for a T-Mobile arrival. The ChaCha has long been rumored for AT&T but is it possible it’s also heading for Magenta as well or was the article merely mistaken? Could we go so far as to speculate the HTC Doubleshot better known as the myTouch Slide 4G would be shown? It’s certainly a possibility but would T-Mobile want to take attention away from the Sensation 4G which is definitely the phone of the hour? As for what else could be shown we’re left guessing the HTC Marvel/Wildfire S, or the HTC Flyer tablet as a possibility and plenty more. We just don’t know what the other two devices could be but we’re surely looking forward to find out!

Dragon Drenchers: Because Holding A Thumb Over The End Of A Hose Isn’t Enough Anymore

FILED IN Entertainment No Comments

dragon-drenchers.jpg

Don’t tell Mikey but I filled mine with battery acid.

Bonzai Dragon Drenchers are $25 pieces of shit water guns. They’re filled up via garden hose and then, when squeezed, can shoot water up to 25ft to drench your friends. Whee!!!! Whee? woo. God, whatever happened to splashing around in a kiddy pool pretending you were Poseidon?! Do kids these days not have imaginations? Because when I was growing up we didn’t even have a hose, we had a well and buckets. But did that stop us from playing ‘water dragon penis shooter’? Actually, yes. Plus my friend fell down the well. “OMG, the girl from ‘The Ring’?!” OH HELL NO — WHY YOU GOTTA BRING HER UP?! And I was just getting used to sleeping with the lights off. You’re a real dick, you know that?

I don’t actually know if that’s a woman in the wheelchair or not, but I’m praying it’s somebody in costume being candidly filmed for some Jackass-y stunt show. Because otherwise I don’t know what to think. Yes, yes I do. RUN OVER YOUR TOES AND BLEED! I swear, some people. *fashions cane out of weed-wacker*
