Thought we’d mess with you real quick. What’s up 2010? Yeah, this place is pretty cobwebby these days. No, that’s probably not going to change. If Conan can’t keep a show then we sure as hell have no business with a website. Did you see his last episode? The fact that a man like him, a truly funny and talented man, can’t make it just kills me, but then he starts getting teary eyed and tells me that the last thing he wants is for anybody to be cynical, which basically means I can do nothing but stare at the wall because the whole situation makes me want to throw up my hands and say “fuck it.” That, or update a website that hasn’t been updated since roughly when his show started.

So long story short is that all of us have real grown-up lives (all but one of us, really, but he’s working on it) and spending time daily writing about a niche of a niche does not the bacon bring. Yes, nobody’s surprised by this. We did it for the love at first, back when we also had the time to serve it up. We don’t really have the time now so we can’t do the pro-bono thing anymore. But on the plus side all your favorite forks and gums are pretty much music video blogs these days, anyways. Remember when it used to be hard to find a music video on the internet? Yeah, that’s why we did our thing, and that’s just not true anymore. We did our best for you for awhile, though, and if that ever meant something to you then we truly appreciate you.

However, if you are an eternal optimist and still have us bookmarked or RSSed then you sure as hell should be interested in Mr. Jonze and his new short film making the rounds at Sundance right now. The film appears to be about robots and love, and it’s sponsored by Vodka. That combination already has me sold like a fistfight between Xander Crews and Sterling Archer, but it gets better. Early word has pegged it to be be a painfully honest take on love and how it overindulges the banal and allows us to distract ourselves from self-destructoin all while somehow maintaining a plucky core of optimism. In short: you already love it. But you probably already loved it because it’s made by Spike Jonze and the man does solid work, even if “Where the Wild Things Are” was 20 minutes too long. So keep your eyes peeled on your Youtubes or tumbles or tweets or Hulus or boxees or facebooks and watch this thing on your phone or new Apple Tablet™ as soon as you can.
