flash mobs are fun

I really want to do something like this!

The Dark Knight

Ok so this is so much like the movie. Great imitations!

Picture is unrelated

This website is hilarious: link
It posts a bunch of really funny pictures that make no sense (like the one above)

The Last Frakking Episode

Battlestar Galactica is over!!! I've been watching this show for 4 years, and now it's over! It's so sad! :( :( :(

I liked the ending, but I'm always sad when a story ends, especially an epic one like BSG.

Break out the tissues:

Darth Batman

Clearly he is a little confused.

Fun with captions

"Screw winning a block of cheese, there's only two ambulances here and there's sixteen drunks hurtling down the hill. Somebody gets to meet Jesus today!"

"Several Formula One race teams have been forced to drastically scale back operations due to the financial climate."

Someday I'll try to be original.

The must-see movie of the year

"The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn is a 2011 motion capture 3-D film based on The Adventures of Tintin, a series of comic books created by Belgian artist Georges "Hergé" Remi. It is directed by Steven Spielberg, and the script is based on two of the stories; The Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham's Treasure. Jamie Bell is playing Tintin, Andy Serkis is playing Captain Haddock, and Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are playing Thomson and Thompson. The cast also includes Daniel Craig, Toby Jones, Mackenzie Crook and Gad Elmaleh.

Tintin (Jamie Bell) finds a clue to an ancient treasure that turns out to be from Captain Haddock's (Andy Serkis) ancestor Sir Francis Haddock. They set out to find it with protection from an jail escapee who tried to get the treasure as well as Detective Thompson and Thomson (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost) and scientific advise from Professor Calculus."

Heck yes!

Obama the plagiarist

Some presidential slogans: (see if you can spot the similarity)

“It’s Time for a Change” - 1952 presidential campaign of Dwight D. Eisenhower

"It's Time to Change America" — a theme of the 1992 U.S. presidential campaign of Bill Clinton

"Change we can believe in" - 2008 presidential campaign of Barrack Obama

Sound familiar?

Not only is he unoriginal, but he is grammatically incorrect. One should never end a sentence in a preposition.

I still think he's awesome, though.

!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the game I was talking about!!!:

Don't Do Drugs

"I'm her mom!" "No she's not!"

Terms of Service

I must say I, guiltily, fall into the category of "those who just check the 'i agree' box on the terms of service without actually reading it". However I decided to scan this time and I officially love ZZ Tours, Inc. This is an excerpt from their terms of service:
ZZ Tours, Inc. is not responsible for delays or service
interruption due to mechanical failure, accidents, traffic
congestion, acts of God, or other circumstances beyond ZZ
Tours, Inc.'s control.

HOW SICK IS THAT?!!! Acts of God!! hahah I love that! Very happy I was driven by 'acts of God' to read the terms of service. I love my sad existence that is entertained by this :)

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Go chase some snakes!

So, every year, my mom makes corned beef and cabbage (not particularly appetizing, though my mother is a fabulous cook) and sometimes she makes green cake. We're Irish, if ya couldn't tell. [I love the Irish, but they need to come up with some tastier signature dishes. Potatoes are pretty awesome, though.] We cranked up the Irish music this year as we ate, and my mom's corned beef was the best yet.


Anyway, here's a bit about our beloved St. Patty:

Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland (and therefore is awesome). He was captured and taken from Wales to Ireland as a slave. He chilled there for 6 years and then escaped (awesomely) and returned to his fam. He returned to Ireland later as a missionary. He drove out some snakes, stuck a stick in the ground, and taught the Irish all about the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Ghost) using a shamrock as a visual aid.
I'm not sure where pinching and leprechauns come into all of this....



Some more official-sounding stuff from Wikipedia:

"Pious legend credits Patrick with banishing snakes from the island, though all evidence suggests that post-glacial Ireland never had snakes;^[39] one suggestion is that snakes referred to the serpent symbolism of the Druids of that time and place, as shown for instance on coins minted in Gaul (see Carnutes), or that it could have referred to beliefs such as Pelagianism, symbolized as “serpents”.^{[citation needed][when?]} Legend also credits Patrick with teaching the Irish about the concept of the Trinity by showing people the shamrock, a 3-leaved clover, using it to highlight the Christian belief of 'three divine persons in the one God' (as opposed to the Arian belief that was popular in Patrick's time)."

So there ya go. Be like good ol' Saint Pat and chase some snakes! Maybe you too can one day become a saint!

Bubble Trouble

Most addicting game ever. I have a problem:

parasite children

in biology today, we talked about symbiosis - two animals gaining things from each other (or not). There are three distinct types of symbiosis:

1. mutualism: both people benefit

2. commensalism: one benefits, the other is unaffected

3. parasitism: one benefits, the other is harmed

she said that scientifically speaking every human was once a parasite. when people were little emryos in there mother's stomach they were making their mother sick and making her hurt and tired while gaining nutrients. they also made the mother's very very fat. this is exactly what parasitism is!!! so tell your parents that they all had a parasite in them however many years ago, and see what they say.

P.S. some would argue that children are still parasites. using up the families money and food, etc.

This guy is absolutely hilarious! You have to read some of his columns

I've read some of his essays for English class, and have enjoyed them immensely. Here's a snippet from "Lost in the Kitchen":

"In defense of men, let me say this: Women do not make it easy
to learn. Let's say a woman is in the kitchen, working away after
having been at her job all day, and the man, feeling guilty, finally
shuffles in and offers to help. So the woman says something like:
"Well, you can cut up the turnips." Now to the WOMAN, who had all
this sexist Home Economics training back in the pre-feminism
era, this is a very simple instruction. It is the absolute simplest
thing she can think of.
I asked my wife to read this and tell me what she thought. This is what she said: She said before Women's Liberation, men took
care of the cars and women took care of the kitchen, whereas now
that we have Women's Liberation, men no longer feel obligated to
take care of the cars. This seemed pretty accurate to me, so I
thought I'd just tack it on to the end here, while she makes
waffles."
