Parking, Robotic Limbs, and Penny Dreadful



Hey guys the following audio was recorded on May 12th 2014 the day after Mothers day, so from the B man happy belated to all you Momma B's out there. This episode I talk about parking lot issues, how to maybe scam the self check out(not actually proven). Also talk about cool robotic arm being approved by FDA article from The Verge can be found here. The first clip was put up for a new show coming out next fall Constantine (no not the bad Keaneau Reaves film), doesn't look half bad link from comingsoon.net can be found here. From the description sounds like a show similar to Supernatural so the B man will keep an eye out for this one. Last but not least the B man talks about watching the free first episode of Penny Dreadful. Despite seeing some man @$$ within the first ten minutes the rest of the show was really good. Hear all this below and if you like to hear B talk randomly about nothing all prior podcasts can be found on Itunes search for Chillinwithb. Later my wanna "B"s.

Episode Title: B Mine, You Nasty Person

Episode Date: 02/20/12


Happy "B" Lated Valentines Day


Now that I wished it to all of you out there, I'm going tell you how dumb and pointless I think this holiday is. Don't get me wrong I'm not a totally heartless person, I do think it's kind of cute for little kids to have secret admirers and share candy, maybe by a little chocolate heart for their mommies.

What gets me is the commercialism of the holiday, and for no apparent reason this day was appointed as the day to celebrate the love of your life but at the cost of jacked up prices of flowers, cards, and food. Then they show these commercials on TV of women getting thousand dollar bracelets from amazing men that don't exist. Then your girl wonders why they can't get an expensive piece of jewelry like the women on TV do. I'll tell you why it's fantasy and it's purpose is to brainwash the sheep out there into convincing their loved ones that love is shown with money.

Bottom line for me is I don't believe you need some appointed day to show your love for the one closest to you, by them a gift out of no where any other time of year, or go out to a nice restaurant on some Friday night, or how about just offer to do some help around the house, or give a nice massage. Just don't give into the bullshit of this stupid holiday like a good little drone.

On a side note, I got totally reamed for confronting my girl about the price of a watch she bought me, that I accidentally stumbled upon online. For more on this story listen to my podcast.

DMC & Fallout 3


I did get two games this week and spent a few hours with each. Fallout 3 I got for 14.99 on Xbox live as a download, figured I love Skyrim so why not try this game made by the same company. The game is kind of boring in my opinion, and although it has some good qualities, including the a slow motion system where you can aim at different parts of the enemies body, it gets old pretty quick. The environments are kind of bland, and I didn't seem to care about any of the characters I interacted with in this game.

DMC or Devil May Cry on the other hand, I have been having a lot of fun with. This game is fairly new and cost $60, but I had a gift card for Bestbuy since Christmas so figured what the hell and picked up a copy. If you've played prior games in the series, it's very similar, but this reboot of the series takes place in an alternate world with and alternate version of characters form past series including the main character Dante. The action is very fluid and fun, within minutes of playing you'll be pulling off combos and having a grand old time killing demons. Things only get better as you unlock other weapons and abilities allowing for some unique combos and cool looking fight scenes.

Bottom line DMC is well worth the price, Fallout 3 may have been great for it's time but even at 14.99 I don't recommend it as there are better games out there like Skyrim which have taken what Fallout may have started and really perfected it while getting rid of the flaws.

Nasty Co-Worker


I could go on and on about the crazy shit my co-workers get away with on a daily basis, but I'll save those stories for another day. This week I want to tell you about the nasty little man that sits next to me. While our job may not be the best as far as pay goes, it is great in regard to medical coverage, and time off. I currently have about six months of sick leave, and over three hundred hours vacation leave. So when my co-worker decided to come to work sick as a dog when he too has plenty of time and could have stayed home to recover while getting paid to do so, I have to ask, why?

I don't really have to ask, the answer is he is just an inconsiderate little F. Don't get me wrong, I've gone to work with a minor headache and other little issues, but when I had the Flu a month ago, I stayed out a full week, even as I started to feel better by the end of it. If coming to work sick isn't enough this guy sits next to me and I have to witness as he uses the same towel all day to blow his nose over and over again, and then puts the towel back on his desk. He leave his heater running facing in my direction, while he sneezes and coughs without covering his mouth. I told him several times he needs to go home and get some rest, but he refused to listen, I even called our supervisor who works off site and she agreed to send him an email telling him he has plenty of time and should go home and rest, still he declined. No he would rather spend the rest of the day on personal calls and browsing the web on work computers while spreading germs than go home and heal.

His nastiness has no bounds, even before this myself and others have witnessed him using the restroom and leaving without ever turning on the sink to wash his hands. He also scratches his private area frequently as well. He is a foreigner and has told me on more than one occasion he plans on returning back to his home country in the near future, all I can say is I'm counting the days down, and hopefully my next co-worker will be a little bit more sanitary and considerate.
