In groups of five. I kind of love this idea for a blog. Dan Pink‘s blog was Just One Thing, just one thing per day, quite often just one sentence. This is Just FIVE Things, five demented things. And we may not be so much about the numbers around here, but we are VERY MUCH about the demented. Passed along by the normally quite steady Timethief.
A sample of the fivefold delights of the 5ives blog:
Five things, besides “your ride,” that you might wish to “pimp”
April 5th, 2007
- your sideboard
- your clergyman
- your thoughts on transubstantiation
- your hypothalamus
- your ranch dressing mix

This one takes the cake:
Five groups, apart from “women and children,” who should get to leave a sinking ship first
October 11th, 2006
1. people who always use turn signals
2. persons who have never purchased a greeting card
3. Broken Social Scene
4. everyone who can and does continue to publicly breakdance
5. un-ironic wearers of suspenders
I’m with all of those except Broken Social Scene. Having endured a Feist concert, I’m off them for awhile.
That was my favorite, I’m over you a little bit…
*googles Feist*
hahaha. ;)
I will take transubstantiation for one hundred.
Jon Henley in the Guardian had a great link to a site where you got stuff to glue onto a hermit crab shell. Pimp My Crabs he called it.
Should be easy then. Raincoaster’s neighbourhood abounds with both.
Indeed. But from the instructions it seems his are much larger…did he get them from Paris Hilton, I wonder?
“Passed along by the normally quite steady Timethief.”
Really. I assumed that by now you had recognized – it’s all an act.
I’m as zany as they come.
Well, your cover is safe with me then.
