As our devoted stalkers are aware, some time ago the ol’ raincoaster, through no fault of her own, joined the ranks of the gainfully employed. It was a Teeny disruption, which, like so many an apparently-minor event, began a slide down a slippery slope; she may even end up respectable one day!

In the course of such employment, she not infrequently stumbles across posts of genuine interest, sprinkled between the millions generic “Britney Does Something Scandalous/Angelina Walks On Water, Gives It To Dehydrated Africans” headlines.

This post by the Mr. Henry on the Manolofood blog is just such an one.

Walrus. Fucking. Turducken. Sushi.

Aged walrus fucking turducken sushi.

Pass teh bucket!

the blogger’s desiderata

Posted on by

DesiderataAll I have to say is that I wish I’d written this. Go. Now. Read the whole thing.

Stumble aimlessly amid the trolls and waste, but remember what peace there be in staring at your toes for a couple of weeks. As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all readers. Publish your posts quietly and clearly, and listen to podcasts, even the dull and garbled, for they too have a right to hog bandwidth. Avoid loud and aggressive bloggers. They are pains in the ass.

GO.

your weekend Cthulhu update

  1. that Cthulhu tee is $39!!! so it’s not going to be in my dresser drawers any time soon, alas.
  2. My friend Lorenzo is firmly of the opinion that the blow that did the most damage was the cry “It’s an old lady!”
  3. there was a third thing, but I can’t remember it and have only four minutes and thirty seconds left on this computer. But it was funny. Really
  4. Check the Cthulhu tag or read Archie’s blog to satiate your demented Cthulhu desires.

Sure, it’s a little late, but when it comes to zombie attack preparedness, better late than never. Also, are you prepared for December 5th? It’s Ninja Action Day. Don’t leave it to the last minute: lay in your ninja, zombie or pirate supplies now, according to your loyalties. If any. When zombies attack, it’s every tentacled being from beyond the star spaces for herself!
