I know, I know: two quizzes in a row! But this is so me and so flattering to me that I’ve got to post it THIS INSTANT. Because a double Bombay Sapphire Martini, 6:1 with Noilly Prat and a twist of lime, waits for no blog.
You Are A Martini
You are the kind of drinker who appreciates a nice hard drink.
And for you, only quality alcohol. You don’t waste your time on the cheap stuff.
Obviously, you’re usually found with a martini in your hand. But sometimes you mix it up with a gin and tonic.
And you’d never, ever consider one of those flavored martinis. They’re hardly a drink!
You gotta know, when it comes to Great Old Ones news, that BoingBoing would have it. And you totally gots to know that raincoaster would be all over featuring it, particularly if it meant that she wouldn’t have to do any gruesome “clearing off of the Earth” duties. Here’s the latest on a pen which has recently been discovered to meet all of the qualities in the “Great Race” narrative, but which are, of course, quite independent of it. Indeed, stories about these strange metal pens are common among a certain circle of fiction writers; only the overwrought imagination of the fantasists could have imagined a pen in our own time that recorded its thought and those to which it referred. Totes.
This is a blast from the past for Canucks, who probably grew up watching those ridiculous Hinterland’s Who’s Who interludes from the NFB. We may not be good at asserting ourselves, but buy god we know our black footed marmot from our white footed one! Stole this from the House of Hunt.
UPDATE: bitch has gone and disabled embedding. Bloody princess; 300,000 hits in ONE DAY and now he decides he doesn’t want to be famous.
UPDATED UPDATE: he says:
Your wish is my command, raincoaster.
Spiders for all!!!
and has re-enabled embedding, yay! Now he’s less than a thousand hits away from 700,000, at two and a quarter million views, which is undoubtably the highest-ranking Canadian nature video ever to hit the internets.
It’s the “100 centimeters” that slays me. TOO Canadian!

What I had was a coat, a hat and a gun.” Raymond Chandler
Stolen from BoingBoing. This guy makes P-Unit look like G-Unit. How to destroy leftover fruitcake? Humiliate it in a rap battle, of course! But this site lists several ways to kill off the least-loved holiday gift, including exorcism, committee, slingshot, and pinata.
