While I’m stuck in Star Wars hell, here’s a fun distraction:

Is that not cool?

Thanks, Jakks

Another entry in the growing field of “lets take a lesser known 80s track, sample the chorus and add filter effects and release it, here comes Groovecutters “We Close Our Eyes”. But at least the video has chicks in schoolgirl outfits doing kung fu movies and then making out.

Some details on the upcoming Muppet Show Season Box Sets.

On a related note, for those of us having stressful days at work, one thing can make it all better: This.

Check out the trailer for horrifically offensive total piece-of-shaved-ass (hi mom!) Sarah Silverman’s new flick.

And then check out her friend Patton Oswalt do a riff on offensive segues.

DO IT! NOW!

One two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve…the remix.

That is all.

Also, here’s the story behind the song, from the writer.

The Cube is gone. Long live the cube.

No kidding. I am a beautiful, 25 year old clean girl, who has never dreamed of doing anything remotely like this in the world. But I’m a slave to rock and roll and am willing to sacrifice my mouth and my morals to party in the desert with the likes of radiohead and the pixies. No bullshit emails, please don’t fuck with me. I will pay face value for 2 saturday tickets and show you a lovely time, no questions asked. Clean, healthy people only- no druggies, no psychos!!! And no cumming in my mouth unless you wear a rubber. I can get together tomorrow eve or any other old time.

I met a crying gothgirl in the tube.

Maybe I’m just in a sentimental mood, but this story really got to me.

seldo.com is also the author of one of my favorite bits of bitterness, mostly because I’ve had more than a few interactions with people like this:

“Oh my god you’ll never guess what happened
Come quick it’s a matter of life and death
Oh no oh no the world is ending
The excitement never ends

I’m glitzy, ditzy, I’m the drama queen
Spend life bouncing from crisis to crisis
I make up for my life’s dullness
Playing up everyone else’s”

For more, read the full “Drama Queen”

“When they say, ‘Gee it’s an information explosion!’, no, it’s not an
explosion, it’s a disgorgement of the bowels is what it is. Every idiotic
thing that anybody could possibly write or say or think can get into the
body politic now, where before things would have to have some merit to go
through the publishing routine, now, ANYTHING.” - Harlan Ellison

Jump on it

Paul and Kurt know what I’m talkin ’bout.

The rest, learn.
