Things that Piss me off..
Posted on November 18, 2009 | 4 CommentsIn a stunning development, new content has been added to Youngmanridge for the first time in 3 years. Sure, it is a bloggish type of post that doesn't really have anything to do with what we usually do, but content is content. Shortstick examines a few things that piss him off and turn him into angry Shortstick. -
How to Better Use A Roger Ebert Review
Posted on August 31, 2005 | 4 CommentsPlenty of people talk shit about Roger Ebert and how they like to form their own opinion about movies. That's fine by me, but I've found, personally, that the man has saved me from watching a horde of films that couldn't peak the interest of even the most dedicated of retards. In other words, I learned how to use Ebert's reviews, even in times of their imperfection, to guide me to the movies I know anyone would want to see. Check out YMR's five step program to better your cinematic experience thru R. Ebert. -
Youngmanridge Visits Dave & Buster’s
Posted on September 6, 2004 | No CommentsShortstick and Giggles go out for a night of videogames and drinking. Dave & Buster's is a gathering place for twenty-somethings who would rather be punching buttons and slamming jack and cokes. We could get use to it though. Highlights include: the D&B shooting gallery, Mazan the videosword game, and the Mechwarrior battle. -
A Youngmanridge Superbowl
Posted on February 2, 2004 | No CommentsWe had really grand plans for this article. It seems like a no-brainer: watch the Super Bowl, get drunk, and document what we did with words and the good ol' digital camera. Other articles like this have worked out really well. In retrospect, it might have seemed like a better idea than it actually was. Still it seemed like a great plan, until Roachito and I were kicking it at his apartment on Super Bowl eve getting ready to invibe a couple of pitchers of beer when I got a phone call. -

Youngmanridge visits Laughlin, NV
Posted on December 4, 2003 | No CommentsOver Thanksgiving weekend, Roachito and Shortstick paid a little visit to Laughlin, NV. We stayed up way too late, drank a bit too much, and played a hell of a lot of blackjack. After careful study, we came to a couple of conclusions - first, Laughlin is a pretty cool place to hang Youngmanridge style and blackjack is the coolest way to lose your money! -
Youngmanridge visits Chuck E. Cheese
Posted on November 26, 2003 | No CommentsAh yes, it's time for another YMR.com photo story. This time, we decided to hit up our local Chuck E. Cheese restaurant to take a trip down memory lane and to check the joint out since it is sorta new. I don't know if it is the area that we live in or if Chuck has changed his place that much, but it was quite different from the place we remembered from our youth. Then again, maybe it was because we are in our late 20s and we aren't freaking 5 anymore. -
Youngmanridge Visits the Grocery Store
Posted on November 15, 2003 | No CommentsHere's the scoop on this little photo story: Last week before the YMR boys went to see the Matrix: Revolutions, we made a trip to Food 4 Less to pick up a couple of liquid refreshments before we enjoyed the movie. When we were making our way towards said liquid refreshments, we thought it would be a great idea to do a little photo story on our shopping experience. Shortstick and Roachito made a return trip to snap some photos tonight and came up with this. I really hope this turns out well! -
Dr. Roachito’s Weight Loss Plan
Posted on November 9, 2003 | No CommentsWhile at the gym the other day, two things occurred to me. One, the worst part about working out is staying motivated. Two, I was wrong the worst thing about working out is having to listen the the shit parade of music the play in... -
A Youngmanridge Halloween
Posted on November 1, 2003 | No Comments'm pretty sure none of you are dying to know how the folks at Youngmanridge spent our Halloween, but we're gonna tell you anyhow. The goal for the night was to try and scare the crap out of kids and document it. Unfortunately, due to me (el Shortstick) being a novice with my digital cam, it didn't turn out quite as well as we wanted it to, but we still got some good scares from the kiddies (especially the teenagers) and had a good time!
