From Tuffy, on the recent Michaelle Jean sealsickle incident:
“That seal heart ain’t eatin’ itself.”
And a close runner-up, from Jenny Quelque Chose at Gawker:
“Eat your heart out, Palin.”

Hockey Night in…Marseilles?
Here’s another whackadoodle video by my favorite Frenchman since Rousseau, Remi Gaillard. While he is, obviously, French and does not enjoy the cultural bounty of a natural-born Canuckistani, it’s quite clear that he understands what fans the world over love best about hockey, and he understands it in a deep, visceral way.
I soooooo want to do this! Who’s in?
Banksy vs the Streets
Longtime readers of the ol’ raincoaster blog are familiar (perhaps too familiar) with my adoration of Banksy, the Birmingham Bristol street artist who is #1 on my list of “men whom I have no idea what they look like but, whatever, they could have me anyway. in daylight. on Sunday.”
And they are equally familiar with my fondness for mashups and radical YouTubeification, so the fact that I’m posting the following video, which combines all of the above, should come as no surprise to anyone but nOObs, and they should just hang out and read and watch what I tell them, dammit!

pic o’ the day: Performance Art on the Downtown Eastside
Homeboy represent!
It’s Hendrik Beune of Fearless City (among many other affiliations) taking his new chair for a spin. He’s a director of AHA Media, so naturally the universe conspired to provide him with a proper director’s chair. And naturally, being Hendrik, and living as he does on the Downtown Eastside, he decided to turn it the occasion into a spontaneous mobile performance art piece.
Cuz that’s how he rolls, yo.
SO not seeing the problem here
I mean, really. I just don’t get it.
