Mobile M.O.P.S. Launched

January Update: As you have probably already figured out, there will not be a new M.O.P.S. episode this month. Because of the holidays and one of our main creators being in the middle of a cross-country move, we couldn't put it out in a timely manner and still be at the standard of quality we have established for this strip. Rest assured that a new episode will appear on Feb 1st, and from what I have seen so far, it is bad to the bone.

Mobile site launched: Just because there is no strip in January doesn't mean we haven't been busy. Today we have launched the mobile, non-flash version of the M.O.P.S. website. So you hipsters out there with your iPhones, smart phones, and PDA's can now read M.O.P.S. on the go without having Flash player installed. The best part is there is no separate address to remember. Just browse to http://www.wefightdirty.net on your non-flash enabled device and you will be automatically redirected to our text-only, mobile-friendly version of the site. Please let us know if you have any issues.

My Top 10 YTMND’s

For those of you without office jobs and consequently without hours in a day where you can freely roam the productivity hindering wasteland that is the Internet, you may have never come across a little gem of a web page called YTMND (http://www.ytmnd.com). The premise of the page is simple. Users put images or animations to music to make a statement, a parody, social commentary or just to be weird. About 80 percent of the website is incomprehensible garbage, but some of it is hilarious and in rare occasions artistic. To give you a little history, YTMND stands for “you’re the man now, dog” which comes from the first YTMND ever created. The first YTMND was actually a clip from the trailer of Finding Forrester where Sean Connery utters that phrase. That one clip spawned an underground society of YTMNDers who update the site constantly with new content. To help you wade through the mediocrity, I’ve compiled a list of my all time top 10 favorite YTMND’s. Enjoy!

10. Even Martians Know NBC - http://tocatchamartian.ytmnd.com/ - Even innocent looking puppets are lurking about the Internet to steal your children’s innocence. Good thing there is one journalist welling to fight for perverted justice.

9. Lex Luthor > Lil Jon - http://lexluthorliljon.ytmnd.com/ - Kevin Spacey’s over-the-top portrayal of Lex Luthor was YTMND fodder for quite a while.

8. New Talent on 60 Minutes - http://sixtymins.ytmnd.com/ - The intro to 60 Minutes featuring some new, unlikely anchors.

7. Vader on Wheel of Fortune - http://vaderfortune.ytmnd.com/ - The Dark Lord of the Sith tries his luck at every grandmother’s favorite game show.

6. Luke Skywalker belts out a face melter - http://nowwhoooaaaoooaaoooaaahh.ytmnd.com/ - Who knew Luke Skywalker could rock?

5. Cosby Bebop - http://cosbybebop.ytmnd.com/ - If you’ve never seen the intro to the anime, Cowboy Bebop, you might not think this is funny. Bill Cosby is the butt of many YTMND jokes.

4. Jon Arbuckle does Thriller - http://arbucklethriller.ytmnd.com/ - Remember the video to Michael Jackson’s Triller? Jon Arbuckle does!

3. Batman: ualuealuealeuale - http://ualuealuealeuale.ytmnd.com/ - You always knew Adam West was a little off.

2. Holy shi* it's a Dinosaur! WTF? - http://jurassicparkwtf.ytmnsfw.com/ - Putting words to any John Williams song is funny I don’t care who you are.

1. PowerPoint: Death Star Attack - http://lay-uh.ytmnd.com/ - The presentation of how to destroy the Death Star had the rebels had the superior technology that is Microsoft Office.

Movie Review: Charlie Wilson's War

My review of Charlie Wilson's War has been posted on 2TheAdvocate.com. It was one of the best movies I've seen all year. It's right up there with American Gangster. Highly recommended.

M.O.P.S. Episode 4

The fourth M.O.P.S. episode had been posted. Check it out at www.wefightdirty.net. This one is my favorite ones I've written so far. I don't know if you guys have noticed yet, but last month I added a feature that let's you view a much larger version of the strip. Just click on the small version and a biggie-sized version will appear. It makes it easier to read the text and you can see a lot more detail. The direct link is:
