While out on the lawn...

It has recently come to our attention that since beginning our new gig at theDailyDot we have been lax in our usual seasonally-orientated postificationing of slightly altered Christmas Carol videos, Cthulhu references, and mashups. To make up for the deficit, here is the platonic ideal of a raincoaster Christmas blog post: a frosty, yet haunted tableau of the vast and twisted array of demented, cannibalistic snowmen created by that diminutive genius, Calvin of Calvin and Hobbes.

Quiz: What Comic Book Sound Are You?

Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

Predictable. Eminently predictable.


You Are “BOOOOOOOOOM”


You’re the type of person who would be a very moody superhero. In fact, you’d walk the line between superhero and supervillain.Blowing up a whole town or planet wouldn’t be out of the question for you if you felt angry enough.You are naturally a justice enforcer. Sometimes there is so much wrong with the world that it really gets you down.You can’t help but want to punish everyone who’s evil. There’s nothing that makes you matter than criminals who are allowed to walk.

I note that this is an improvement over my previous attempt at this quiz, when I was a mere “Zap“. Now, somebody warn all those people dumping haterade on Occupy Vancouver.

Now I think we’ve heard from all of the great savants of our time: Fran Lebowitz, George Carlin, Oscar Wilde and the famous and prolific Anonymous, and Calvin.
