Breaking fast: Necronomicon Found!

Damn. I knew I left it someplace!Cthulhu sees you!

Fortunately, the British police have no idea what they've found. "Anthropodermic bibliopegy" indeed; they're just trying to normalize this to prevent a global panic. The fools! Mwahahahahaha.

When you happen to find an old book that you can't read, bound in human skin and lying by the side of the road in small-town nowheresville, your first reaction shouldn't be: gee, I can't read this, so it must be an old ledger. And it's just lying here, so it must have been dropped during a robbery of…that barn there. Or the sheep pen. Or maybe the badger hole. I'm sure it must be fairly common. People are always dropping old ledgers bound in human skin by the side of the road after committing robberies that have gone completely unreported and unnoticed. Happens all the time.

Honestly, is a Hound attack so implausible in that light?

This news surfaced the day after I'd made cheap jokes at the expense of Leeds, and just as I was putting together a blog entry on Ernest Angley. Not that there's any relationship between these completely independent incidents.

The End Times Are Upon Us! It's Easter, just the right time of the year for an Apocalypse. And it will be blogged, people.

Cthulhu ftagn, Cthulhu RSS!

Operation Global Media Domination: Egg Day

TIADon’t ask me why. Blog works in mysterious ways. But today, if you’ll just scroll down and see, is Egg Day. If you’re feeling generous, you can even include the post from yesterday about the trichinosis worms (I mean, it’s the eggs that getcha, right? and there were millions of the wee buggers, so that’s gotta count for at least one, right?).

But it’s a sure bet that Egg Day is not gonna rock the same hits as Gay Pirate Day.

Yesterday we welcomed many, many intellectuals to our blog; for one thing, they loved to hate on the Margaret Atwood. For another, their searches included Nobel Prize winners, Geoffrey Chaucer, the New Testament, and a poignant question about whether or not The Scorpions still count as celebrities.

No.

On the other hand, today they’re back looking for that elusive Narnia Porn. Other searched-for items included free porn movies of nutty sex yelling sex porn SOMALI SEX MOVIE somali porn movies aslan porn. And Mitsou, but that’s hardly an improvement. So here, for all you pervy, unsatisfied, yet counted-on-an-equal-basis-with-Ernest-Hemingway-scholar fetishists, we present your Narnia fix:

Recipe of the Day

Deep-Fried Cadbury’s Easter Cream EggsCream Eggs

Someone call Nigella and Britney too: these have got to be hallucinogenically, mind-alteringly good. It’s true, they’re nothing more than cheap, filling-ringing chocolate surrounding a mass of sticky white cavity juice with an unidentifiable but still carbiferous and dentist-horrifying yellow center. Battered. And. Deep. Fried. Geniuosity! As they say, is there a better way to celebrate the death and resurrection of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, than with these sinfully tempting morsels?

Linkie o’ the Day: Al Jazeera

I've been looking for an excuse to link to these guys for ages. Who'dathunk the first link would be for a story on intelligent design and Pastafarianism?

What Would Flying Spagetti Monster Do?

Williams's stance echoes that of the Roman Catholic church

The spiritual leader of the world's Anglicans does not believe that creationism, the biblical account of the world's origins, should be taught in schools. Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, said: "I don't think it should, actually. No, no."

Apparently, the world may have been called into being by the Flying Spaghetti Monster – whose devotees would also like their beliefs taught as scientific theory in American schools.

"I think we can all look forward to the time when these three theories are given equal time in our science classrooms across the country, and eventually the world: one-third time for intelligent design, one-third time for Flying Spaghetti Monsterism, and one-third time for logical conjecture based on overwhelming observable evidence."
