Last weekend, I crossed off a major item on my bucket list. I went to Taco Bell in Germany. "But Raven, shouldn't you aspire to better, healthier things that have a measurable positive impact on society?" I know that's what you're thinking, but I don't really give a crap... because you are not the boss of me. I wanted Taco Bell, because it's probably the one thing from back at home that I crave the most. Say what you want about it (again, I don't give a crap), but get at me when you've spent years away from your homeland and are unable to acquire whatever nasty-ass comfort food is available wherever you're from. For me, my nasty-ass comfort food of choice is Taco Bell...with Sonic a close second. However, you can't even find Sonic all over the U.S. and I don't find myself craving burgers and hot dogs all the time (plus, those urges are a lot easier to satisfy than a craving for Mexican or Tex-mex).

Anyway, it came in first place in the Parameter short film competition run by The Onion A.V. Club and sponsored by Grolsch beer.

Some of the other videos are kind of cool too. There were some pretty specific rules in the contest (certain elements that had to be in the video). Some of the videos are kinda weird/trippy, like this other one called The Anal Probes (http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-anal-probes,88355/).
Overall, an interesting concept for a film competition.
Oscar Homeslice was really the best one (in my opinion).
