Skkra recommends… Honda CRV!
Am I possibly biased because I drive this car? Yes. Does that change my recommendation? No. This is a great car for a great price, and you can get as many or few options as you want. Heated seats? Screw it, who needs em. Heated SIDEVIEW MIRRORS? Why? It’s like $3000 extra to add them.…

Skkra recommends… avoiding white lighters!
Yeah, I know it’s supposed to be a myth. It’s not. They’re bad luck. The only time I decided, hey, fuck it, I’m going to use a white lighter, things did not go well. The next day, a friend of ours was randomly pulled over and arrested. Was it worth it to light that cigarette…

Skkra recommends… water rage!
Yeah, that’s right, bottled water is lame. It’s not bottled water itself, actually. It’s what it represents. The fucking government allows so many chemicals to be put into tap water that I generally won’t drink it. In my home, I have an extremely high grade filter to filter the tap water. It’s ridiculous to the…

Skkra recommends… normal bulbs!
I HATE those frigging LED lightbulbs. I know they’re trying to phase out standard bulbs, because I guess they’re made of pure satanic evil, but at least leave me the OPTION. I do not want to be stuck with those terrible LED bulbs as my sole option. The light they emit is just cold and…

Skkra recommends… dont save anything!
Dont save your web inputs. I get that this is supposed to be a “feature” and that you can turn it off, but the fact that it happens by default bugs the living hell out of me. It’s the epitome of anti-security. It doesn’t save passwords, sure. But if I want to go to someone’s…

Skkra recommends… full promises!
Let me tell you something that bugs the hell out of me – people who don’t follow through on the promises they make. Look, if you cant rely on someone to do something when they say they will, that’s just bad form. As a counter example, lets take this very website. Many, many moons ago,…

Skkra recommends… Red Alert!
Some friends were talking about Red Alert recently, and I felt like it was worth mentioning here. Red Alert was released in 1996, and was one of my favorite real time strategy games, rivaling the original StarCraft. There are only 2 factions instead of 3, but they both play extremely differently and are a blast…

Skkra recommends… AVGN!
James Rolfe, aka the Angry Video Game Nerd, is a goddamned legend. One of the first viral content creators – something that happened entirely by accident when some friends shared his original review tape that he made just to make them laugh – he has gone on to have a long career which continues to…

Skkra recommends… Carl Weathers!
God damn, Carl Weathers is fucking awesome. First off, I looked him up, and the dude is friggin 75. He still looks pretty damn fit for a 75 year old. The guy has always been a hyperfit monster, from Rocky to Predator and even in Happy Gilmour. One of my workout idols for sure… a…

Skkra recommends… Aqua Teen Hunger Force!
Me and my friends were lucky enough to have stumbled upon Adult Swim way way back when it first started. Ah, the glorious old “seniors in the pool” commercial bumps, Space Ghost, Home Movies, and of course, starting in December of 2000, the now-legendary Aqua Teen Hunger Force. ATHF is definitely one of the most…
