My thanks to the professedly swaggering hetero Frontier Editor for the following, which I heartlessly stole from his blog. There are those for whom innuendo is not enough, and it is for them that some twisted soul made the following Star Trek slash vid. If you have to ask which characters, you know less about both Star Trek and slash than you should to be wandering around on your own out here in the blogosphere. Please go on to your choice of World of Warcraft or Guildwars and hire a guide.
It's all very convoluted, really. I found this on Wil Wheaton's blog. It's an extremely twisted British video by Cox and Combes about George Washington and his 30 penises and 4 testicles. Because you can never have too many, eh?
I think Wil may be training for the Gitmo Marathon soon if Ann Coulter finds out about this.
although why bother? Here is a clip from the infamous series on This Hour has 22 Minutes, by Rick Mercer who is also in our blogroll but really needs to hire me to feed and walk his blog while he’s away.
What’s really funny is that the person who posted it on YouTube doesn’t know any more than the rest of these clueless and corn-fed specimens of Amerawkana.
DID YOU KNOW that the capital of Canada recently relocated from Ottawa to Toronto? Former Vice-President Al Gore did!
In fairness to Gore, he knows better and probably did the quick “I don’t have time to correct this dude” math in his head before coming out with the stock answer.
Thanks to Gawker for the pic of a truly masterful example of front page class. Also, love the Gawker comment alternate bubble suggestion from Steverino:
"Happy Friday, New York! Now you all have to stare uncomfortably at my bloody face sitting nonchalantly by the side of your desk all day while you work. Who has the last laugh now, bitches?! Oh yeah, just try to eat your little Thai takeout at your desk and NOT turn this paper over out of disgust. Yeah, that's what I thought, wuss."
That's right: despite (finally) breaking into the top 140,000 blogs on Technorati (of 43.6 million), raincoaster is heartlessly abandoning the inconsistent, illogical, and inaccurate Technorati rankings for a new favorite toy.
That's right. Something useful on the Huffpo. Whodathunkit, eh? But me wuvs this little tool and will abuse it daily, repeatedly, and with much affection and generous lashings of lube (gin Martinis, "for Mrs. Parker").
From Gawker:
The HuffPo’s virgin media blog Eat the Press has an entertaining new time-waster: the People Ranker, which charts the levels of buzz in the blogosphere. Just enter a string of names, and the fun little gizmo spits out popularity contest-style results. We love it — it’s so much easier to be snotty and judgmental when you have concrete data.
Yes indeedy it is. And why does raincoaster love it so much? Let's take it for a slow and careful, quarter-turn by quarter-turn spin, shall we?
