how is a bagel like a vagina?

Posted on by

I’m serious here. Some misguided Midwestern bagel shop decided that nothing says “fun atmosphere” like baked goods reminiscent of a mummy’s ladyblossom.

So, how, exactly, would a bagel like a vagina be a good thing? How could a bagel be like a vagina?

Oh, tuna salad is an option…

Betcha didn’t know there was an Antarctic Octopus, eh? But seriously, how could there not be, given the presence of the Underground Lake of Gigantic Albino Penguins and A Few Feral Shoggoths? You so should have seen this coming.

Operation Global Media Domination: Technorati: for all your “faith in civilization” needs

Posted on by

Seriously. I never thought of reaffirming my faith in human nature by checking Technorati (particularly as it refuses to promote me from 18,694th place) but this, actually, is heartening:

Really, it’s most uplifting. Sure, we’ve got a titty model, a mindless entertainment site, a closeted neo-Gospel singer, a computer, a mindless hookup and boast site, the sound you make when swallowing a too-big vitamin pill, and a popular kind of canned beans, but then we also have, in the top ten blog searches in the world at this time, one of the greatest newly-dead philosophers in the world.

Now, if I only knew what Joost was…is it a Tang substitute?

nerdgasm: the making of Thunderbirds!

Posted on by

We all have our touchstones; the photograph of a child, a stone from the beach on which we fell in love, the first dollar we ever earned, a hard-won diploma, high school trophies wrapped in tissue paper and fond memories…

Supermarionation…

Here’s an ancient video Rosetta Stone from the previous century which purports to be the very first time the Thunderbirds were recorded on film. The premise that the ‘birds were merely puppets is, of course, the kind of elaborate conceit for which the French intellectuals of the mid-Twentieth Century were so well known. As we are all aware, the Thunderbirds were every bit as real as the constant threat of Communist invasion.

Who’s with me? Team Thunderbird: Operation GenX initiated! F.A.B.!!!

IndoMie, a good source of dietary carbs 

In the spirit of the great Lily Tomlin and her immortal stage show The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life, we at the ol’ raincoaster blog present the following conundrum:

If soy sauce is made from soybeans and chili sauce is made from chilis,

what is bumbu sauce made from?

BUMBU, you!
