Jellacool

There's really no denying,

jellyfish

are

hellacool.

Awesome. I'm thinking about starting a segment called Jellyfish Fridays where I post a picture of a hellacool jellyfish every friday. Yeay? Nay? Leave a comment please.

I'll Have the Number Two Special

Finally, two of my favorite things, food and poop, brought together in one not-too-disgusting package. All hail Hung Lin-wen, founder of The Martun (or "Toilet Bowl") restaurant in Taiwan. According to Crappers Quarterly (yeah I know, it's my favorite site too), not only are the seats toilet bowls...


...but so are the dishes. You can even get your coffee served in a toilet bowl shaped mug. I could make some gross joke about diahrrea here, but my better judgment advises against it.


Can you hand me the toilet paper?

Now kids, if you want to impress you friends with your wacky typoglycemic antics but, like me, are too lazy to sit there and write everything out yourself, try the Typoglycemia Translator. Man, the internet has everthing these days.

Thanks Sash.

I Said Gizoogle Motherfuckas!

OK, I was going to write some funny comment in hebonics with the fizzle and the shizzle but I'm way too lazy right now. The site Gizoogle translates any website into hebonics, complete with "homies" and "motherfuckers". My site - I Guess W-to-tha-izze'll J-to-tha-izzust Hizzle To Adjust - looks like this. Funny. And here's my post about the Brick Testament site (below) as rewritten by Gizoogle:

Hizzle you ever caught yoself sippin' "man, tha Bible is bor'n . It's your homie snoop dogg from the dpg. How do thugz read this th'n?"? Did you ever gangsta if anyone else has no clue who Cain n Abel are? Have you ever wished someone would jizzust takes tha tizzle ta carefully illustrate every story in tha Bible out of Lego blocks, takes pictures of tha scenes, add shawty speech bubbles fo` clarificizzles n conveniently publish T-H-to-tha-izzem on a usa-friendly website but wizzle too afraid ta ask fo` fear of clockin' tha terrible wrath of God, or worse, creationists? Wizzy W-to-tha-izzish no crazy ass nigga fo` Rev. Brendan Powell Smizzith (note: not a real reverand) has created The Brick Testament , virtually tha entire Bible, scene by scene, in comic-book style, made entirely of Lego. Awesome now motherfuckers lemme here ya say hoe. Genius actually . Tru niggaz do niggaz. I'm pretty sure tizzy tha Lego men he used fo` Moses n God is Aragorn n Gandalf from tha Lord of tha Rings Lego set. But whateva works, really wit da big Bo$$ Dogg.

Lego My Bibble-o

Have you ever caught yourself thinking "man, the Bible is boring. How do people read this thing?"? Did you ever wonder if anyone else has no clue who Cain and Abel are? Have you ever wished someone would just take the time to carefully illustrate every story in the Bible out of Lego blocks, take pictures of the scenes, add little speech bubbles for clarification and conveniently publish them on a user-friendly website but were too afraid to ask for fear of incurring the terrible wrath of God, or worse, creationists? Well wish no longer, for Rev. Brendan Powell Smith (note: not a real reverand) has created The Brick Testament, virtually the entire Bible, scene by scene, in comic-book style, made entirely of Lego. Awesome. Genius actually. I'm pretty sure that the Lego men he used for Moses and God are Aragorn and Gandalf from the Lord of the Rings Lego set. But whatever works, really.


Ten bucks says it tastes like Lego.

Pink Is The New Tabloid

Admit it, you're a gossip whore. Now you might be too embarassed to read the tabloids and you might be too cool to watch award shows but like it or not, you care about what celebrities do. They're better looking than you, they have more money than you and your significant other would probably rather be sleeping with one of them than you. So what's a non-celebrity to do? Make fun of them, of course! Enter Pink Is The New Blog. This is a super funny blog about celebrities by a super gay guy called Trent. This site won't make you feel like a creepy celebrity-obsessed loser because Trent is funny and makes funny comments about the funny things celebrities do. And we love the funny. He updates it daily. No seriously, every single day.

Corporate Whores and Amazon Devils

So it's official, I've become a corporate whore. Yes, I've joined the capitalist masses trying to make a buck anyway they can. I've sold my blogging soul to the Amazon devil. So shoot me. But before you shoot me, click on the Amazon links and buy stuff so I can get money, ok? Muahahahaha...who said that?

Click...and Die!

Ok fine, so you won't actually die if you click...but the point is you're not suppose to. Alex from Germany (you know, Alex...no?) thought it would be a neat idea to deconstruct the most deeply ingrained and almost instinctual computer user habit: clicking. He built the site Don't Click It as an experiment designed to rid the user of his/her most basic navigational tool. How did he do it? Well he basically just made a site where there's nothing to click on (genius!). Every part of the site is accessible via roll-over. So basically you'll go to the site, you'll fiddle around with it a bit, you'll make a concerted effort not to click anything, you'll accidentally click something, you'll momentarily reflect on clicking and things of a clicky nature, and then you'll forget it ever happened and go by shit on eBay. Try it here.

Click it and die!

NESsed To Impress

Hey kids! Who's up for some retro-fun? Me neither but here it is anyway! It's really reassuring to know people are putting their efforts into making the world a better place - like Brandon from Milk My Cow. He managed to cram the guts of a DVD player into the skin of an original Nintendo Entertainment System. And the kicker is that it actually works! The "On" button of the NES actually turns the DVD player on and a remote control is used for everything else, including opening and closing the tray. The best thing is you don't have to blow on the DVDs to make them work. Woohoo!

In other NES nostalgia-related news, even though the old-school remote won't work on the DVD player, it will work as...wait for it...a belt buckle! NESBuckle.com sells these retrotastic gems at a cool $30US a piece. Awesome! The F.A.Q. resolve any questions or concerns you might have, including "My boyfriend totally made one of these like 6 years before you, you guys are dumb!"

If anyone feels compelled to buy me one of these items, please feel free.

OMG a Bolshevik! Get away!

The other day one of my coworkers mentioned that she used to have an acute fear of wheelchairs to the point where she would almost pass out if she saw one (yeah, I know). So, hard-working research employee that I am, I wanted to find out if this curious condition had a name. I came across an incredibly comprehensive list of phobias compiled by a guy who apparently has even more time on his hands than me. It would seem that people are afraid of pretty much everything in the world, ever (except wheelchairs). I don't know if these are all for real but this doesn't seem like a funny website. Allow me to share some of my favorite phobias with you:

- fear of poetry- Metrophobia

- fear of Bolsheviks - Bolshephobia

- fear of sitting down- Kathisophobia

- fear of phobias- Phobophobia

- fear of urine - Urophobia

- fear of Chins- Geniophobia

- fear of Greek terms- Hellenologophobia

And my very favorite: fear of long words - Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. Excuse me but who was the asshole psychologist who decided it would be a good idea to name a phobia of long words the longest word ever? That's just mean.

OMG a Bolshevik!

Montage-A-Dictive

I've been meaning to post this one for a while, so here goes it: by far one of the most addictive things I've come across lately (Katelyn, book some time off work), Montage-a-Google is an application that uses Google's image search to create a (surprise!) montage of pictures that come up for search you enter. I searched for "sunset" and look at the pretty picture I made all by myself! Try searching for "diamonds" and check out the interesting juxtaposition of images that is created. And if you like that, try Guess-the-Google, a game where you're given a montage and you have to guess what word the search was based on. These awesome applications were created by Grant Robinson, a very creative digital designer from New Zealand.

Plantimals

This is by far the most entertaining use of Photoshop I've ever seen. A website called Worth 1000 held a Photoshop contest called Plantimals where entries had to feature a photograph of an animal merged with some sort of plant life. From GeekLikeMe
