L’amour N’est Rien

Posted on by

I could swear I’ve blogged this video before, but perhaps not. By this point in Blogathon, I’m doing a LOT of swearing, as you can imagine. Nearly halfway through and I’m four posts short. Time for some quickie YouTubes, methinks.

This one happens to be one of the most popular things on Twitter; every damn time I post it I get 300 new Followers, for reasons which will become obvious about the time Mylene Farmer here starts undoing the garter belt. Enjoy, and know that you can enjoy with a clear conscience, Farmer being somewhat renowned as a post-postfeminist in good standing (for details of which, click on her name and watch that video, Fuck them All).

Lyrics:

Love is nothing/ Mylene Farmer

Obsessed with the worst
And not very verbose
The least of my sighs
Turn metaphysical
I have in my heaven
Tons of stars
Hanging on my wings
And down falls the angel Gabriel

Obsessed with the worst
A little too physical
The desire to quiver
Is pharaonic
Fed up with asceticism
My life is wrapped in darkness
For me without the tongue
Wihtout sex I get weak

Love is nothing
When it’s politically correct
You like one another
You don’t even know when you hurt them
Love is nothing
When everything is sexually correct
You get bored
You yell for it to stop
Life is nothing
When it’s lukewarm
It consumes itself and shakes your blood
In cigarette ashes
Life is good
It’s made of honey
When it’s acid with dynamite
Those who love me, follow me

Obsessed with the worst
And not very verbose
The least of my sighs
Turn metaphysical
I have in my head
Tons of pirouettes
The leap of the angel
Doesn’t seem strange to me

Obsessed with the worst
And not very verbose
To share my laughs
Rather plutonic
I have in my sphere
A greenhouse effect
My blood’s boiling
I’m seething about everything

Mugshot of the Day

Posted on by

I am unsure whether this is some new emo style thing or whether this woman designs connect-the-dots puzzles for a living and just! cant’! stop! working!

In either case, this is unquestionably the best mugshot of the day. This is the kind of picture that Johnny Depp flips through Match.com to find, you just know it.

Before you click over to DListed and TheSmokingGun to find out what she was arrested for, how about putting your guesses down in the comments section? I say she’s a Latvian mail order bride, arrested for murdering her 18-year-old, mother’s basement-dwelling husband with one of his own collector’s Civil War rifles.

Yea though I walk through the valley of mashups, I shall fear no dissonance, for I have read the raincoaster blog, and I’ve seen EVERYTHING now.

Right?

Presenting, Miss Hedda Lettuce, with the greatest cover (ever so slightly adapted) of Lady Gaga’s Pokerface:

Art Cop!

Posted on by

Everyone’s heard of the fashion police (they were even handing out tickets here in Vancouver a couple of years back, but they must have stopped since nobody’s tried to arrest me recently) but what about art cops? And I’m not talking about the Bureaucratocracy that runs the galleries; I’m talking about actual men and women of action, prowling around, making sure that art is paid the respect which is its due, whether that’s busting the kneecaps of some thug who tries to stash his gum underneath the Louise Nevelson or this:

Quiz: What does your butt say about you?

Posted on by

The results here are quite surprising. I thought for sure my butt said nothing more than, “You need to lose forty pounds, honey.”


Your Butt Says You’re Laid Back


You are an easygoing, trusting person. You don’t get too worked up, because everything usually works out in life.

You are not afraid to flirt and show off what you’ve got. At times, you can be a bit full of yourself.

You are drawn toward close, one-on-one relationships. You crave a partner – romantic or otherwise.

You are friendly and self-assured. You’re not one to brag, but you’re quite happy with yourself overall.

You tend to be a serious, straight laced kind of person. It takes you a while to warm up and let loose.
