Drunk men are like helpless Puppies

I see this
(oh and the awkward pauses are questionable but worth ignoring, I suppose the creator really wanted the audience to relate to points in the song?)



and I am reminded of this



The struggle is just epic. I found myself cheering drunk man on, just knowing KNOWING if he only flipped on to his stomach, all would be well. Kudos to the guy who put Lux Aeterna with this, it brings the lulz. And I know half of you out there are thinking "Yeah, I've been there."

Quality Entertianment

I don't think you quite understand how magical I am after watching this.
Well that is, until you watch this.


You're Welcome.

I love Comixed.com

This is what I do during class, I sit and scroll through these, occasionally uncontrollably giggling and hoping that I'm not freaking out people sitting near me.
This one might require a bit more HP obsessiveness

If you know who moot is then you and I most certainly can be friends... on second thought, maybe not. However if you too find him inextricably attractive... well we still can't be friends, but let me know so I can find assurance that I'm not crazy.

b t dubs, this is unquestionably my fave by far.

Check out Comixed.com for more if you haven't discovered this gem already, it is already in my toolbar on firefox.

I would like to share something with you.




I found this a few years back, and I still find myself strangely hypnotized.

Movie Review: The Brothers Bloom

Dear reader, go see The Brothers Bloom (Rian Johnson, 2009)
I went and saw this last week with my sister at her request, and didn't have time to go look up IMDB and check out the specs, and was pleasantly surprised.

I wouldn't call myself a movie snob by any means, I don't wrinkle my nose at going to a movie like Twilight for the pure mindless entertainment, and I am an avid lover of Cane Toads (best documentary ever made). But I will have my degree in film in a few years, and that gives me at least an ounce of credibility, right? I have seen hundreds of films, but I still get all worked up about going to the cinema or renting a movie (or *other* methods) and I think loving it is what really gives me any right to judge them.

I promise not to say too much; I tent to get over excited about things like this. I'm not going to give you a plot synopsis per se, but here is the general idea: Two orphaned brothers Bloom (Adrien Brody) and Stephen (Mark Ruffalo) discover at an early age they have a knack for conning their way to whatever goal they desire. The older designs the elaborate plots whereas the younger (Bloom) seems to do more of the legwork. We see early on that living their life creating relationships is both very isolating and seems to weigh heavily on Bloom. Cut to them grown and experienced with Bloom wanting to get out of his lifestyle. Along with their acquired sidekick Bang Bang (Rinko Kikuchi), a silent Japanese explosives expert, the brothers embark on their last con of an eccentric lonely young millionairess (Rachel Weisz). Enter the love story. I will say no more.

What is great about this movie is it is entirely unpredictable, as you are constantly trying to decide what is a con and what is real, and asking the question "Does it really matter?" We see some great devices throughout, some slapstick comedy, Brechtian distancing paired with ironic results, and the use of symbolism is present but not overwhelming.

Now this might sound pretentious: I absolutely adore the integration of some classic Russian cinematic moments, and they were nicely paired with the whole idea of the Russian novel being similar to the cons, the references to the Russian mobsters for the big finish, and the crazy cameo by Maximilian Schel (who I swore was Sean Connery the whole time!).
The characters are the real beauty here though. They pull you in and you actually like them, as unbelievable as they would seem in the real world. Bang Bang was superb despite only saying three words the whole film, notably: "Campari".

I hate to say "I laughed, I cried", but yes I certainly laughed and had to fight back tears at one point, shh don't tell. Go see it. You will enjoy it immensely even if you know jack squat about film, and will love it even more if you do. I expect good things from Rian Johnson who has only directed one other film (Brick in 2005) and has had pretty solid positive critiques, and he's only 35 so I imagine there will be a lot more coming from him.

Awkward Families Part I

My first installment of awkwardness. More to come.


I hope this picture was taken by accident. First off, why is Julie Andrews in this photo? Is this the Von Trapp family in the Sound of Music Sequel: Liesl's revenge? You are 50, going on DEAD. This of course poses the question at to why Liesl here is so angry, and how she is performing the fabled mind control on her brother. And Mr. Man on the left is just screaming wtfery. He is possibly a priest... but I suppose this is his secret family. Perhaps he has gotten away with this by masquerading as a gym teacher.









Simply put: This is why I love gingers (and simultaneously proof they are evil).














And lastly:

This is just sex. All family members are wearing matching Sears shirts. All family members are wearing pink bunny ears- except that is, for Mom. Mom is wearing BLACK bunny ears. Was she a bad bunny? Is that why she is wearing her come-hither face? Well regardless, the one thing which holds firm in logic is the stuffed moose (or perhaps reindeer) she is holding. With that our trust can be reestablished in the normalcy here.









I hope everyone revelled in that.

This is Life Changing

Recently a friend of mine directed me to this website: http://www.femalefreedom.ca/

And my life changed forever.

Basically this product is hilarious (albeit useful). It is called the P-Mate, and simply put it lets girls pee standing up! So guys, you may not quite realize the epic win this really is, because let's face it you have the P-Mate v. 1.0, and have never had to deal with pulling off your entire wardrobe when in a tight spot.












The P-Mate is like a cardboard funnel, which is easily placed under your hooha (why I am resorting to strange euphemisms, I don't know) if you just move your panties, and stick the other end out of your shorts/jeans/skirt, pointing where ever you want.


Amazing, huh? No more wet shoes or clothes, awkward squatting, or finding the most remote place possible to pee! I mean it is great for camping, for people like me who go running outdoors, and best of all for drunk girls leaving clubs!

The product is based in Canada, but I am sure it will make it's way down south, or at least will be ripped off by another manufacturer! The P-Mate is biodegradable, made of recycled material, can be folded up, and doesn't get soggy. Basically it is perfect.

Hey! Maybe now we can experience the joy of writing our names in the snow!!!
