Oh, if only!
Hang on to your Elder Signs: it’s The Casting Call of Cthulhu, the eldritchiest ten-minute comedy short you’ve ever seen. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll fear for your very sanity! But if you read this blog regularly, I’m sure you’re used to that.
I bought some of the most interesting tea from Ten Ren the other day: lychee ball jasmine tea. I didn’t even know lychees had balls, let alone such big ones! And it’s beautifully Cthulhoid once it’s been steeped. The damn tentacles even writhe as if in pain! It’s like watching Jacques Cousteau’s Adventures in R’lyeh right there in your teapot.
Beverly Hills Cthulhu
Actually, contrary to what it says over on io9, Cthulhu does not need a perky blonde sidekick. He already has me!
Jenna MacNipperson (Cameron Diaz) is a spoiled daddy’s girl on vacation in Cancun. When her island-hopping party boat runs aground on the ancient city of R’lyeh, she accidentally awakens the slumbering Cthulhu (voiced by Terry Hatcher), The Thing which cannot be described. One look at MacNipperson’s Manolo Blahniks and Cthulhu knows they will be BFF – literally, for all eternity. From Cyclopean masonry and non-Euclidean architecture to Rodeo Drive and Hollywood afterparties, the world is their oyster as these two outrageous debutantes embark on the Final Shopping Spree.
Not to be bitchy about it, but Cameron Diaz is waaaaaay too old to play a debutante! Whereas me? I’m ageless, of course, just like Cthulhu himself!

It’s true! It’s a fact. You can see for yourself! Continue reading
