Beaster Bunny

by on March 31, 2013

I saw this sadly sweet animation about a man whose giant rabbit might be standing between him and love. How could I not share it?

The True Meaning Of Zappadan

by on December 3, 2012

It’s December 4! Blessed be your Zappadan!

For the uninitiated, Frank Zappa’s birthday is December 21, but he shuffled off this mortal coil on December 4, leaving a seventeen day period of transition between the two for his disciples to bridge in any way that they could. Zealots to the last, they opted to use this period  to celebrate Frank Zappa’s life, work and persnickety genius. This is sort …

“The Only Way To Be In Love”

by on February 14, 2012

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Letters of Note has this flowery response from Ayn Rand to a fan who had a question about a particular line in The Fountainhead – “To say ‘I love you’ one must first know how to say the ‘I’.”

Any person who wants to live for others — for one sweetheart or for the whole of mankind — is a selfless nonentity. An independent

Welcome Back, Onstad

by on February 3, 2012

It’s been a little under a year since Chris Onstad, creator/proprietor of Achewood, my most very favourite comic strip, online or otherwise, in this life and any others I may have led, declared that he was taking an indefinite hiatus from doing the strip, but it’s been well over a year since his output could be described as anything approaching steady. And with an announcement that read like this …

“The Art Of Pho”

by on January 12, 2012

You look like you’re in the mood for seeing something stupendous, involving noodles. May I be of assistance? Submarine Channel just debuted their interactive, eight episode animation of The Art of Pho by Julian Hanshaw. It’s the story of a fellow named Little Blue and what happens when he finds himself in Vietnam, sort of by accident learning how to make their noodle dish, pho.

 

I’m not exactly doing …

Look Back In JibJab

by on December 28, 2011

Welcome to the dead zone, where just about all there is left to do is eat Christmas leftovers and look impatiently forward to 2012 by gazing back longingly at 2011. It just so happens that JibJab’s is the first year in review that I’ve seen, but even if it wasn’t, it would still be the most tuneful.

Rogue Cop Alert – Updated

by on November 19, 2011

Update:

Captain Lewis interviewed by Chris Hayes, turns out he’s an anti-fracking activist too

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Original:

Were it not for the fact that he’s wearing his dress uniform, retired Philadelphia police captain Ray Lewis wouldn’t look all that much like a cop in this video, taken at Occupy Wall Street. He’s holding two signs, one saying, “NYPD Don’t …

BOO!

by on October 31, 2011

Happy Hallowe’en! I spent most of yesterday carving jack o’lanterns (ten!), though I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve got nothing on sculptor Ray Villafane, who turned the largest pumpkin grown in 2011 – or ever, actually – into a zombie hatchery.

If You’re Feeling Unique

by on October 28, 2011

Good morning, fellow sapiens. How’s everybody feeling today? Can we get a quick show of hands here: who’s feeling really great today, really fantastic, like they’re someone who’s quite…special?

Ooo, that’s quite a few. Well, good. Good for all of you, and with that in mind, I’ve got great news. The BBC has a prick for each and every one of your balloons. Entitled The World At Seven Billion, …

Two Sides To Every Story

by on October 19, 2011

The video of CNN getting punked in Andrew Loewen’s post just below this reminds me of something I stumbled across the other day.

What it lacks in the joyful feeling that comes from the sight of television reporters being played for idiots, it more than makes up for with its brutal caricatures of some pretty creepy creeps.  Be forewarned: salty language ahead. Without further ado, here is We Are
