paging Christopher Walken…could Christopher Walken please report to the Walls of Jericho?

Well, now it’s official. Welcome to the End Times.

With musical accompaniment.

Well, it would have musical accompaniment, if the Archangel Gabriel (or Gabe, as we like to call him) hadn’t, in a move startlingly reminiscent of (if not actually plagiarized from) Terry Pratchett‘s scene of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse getting one of their horses stolen and so becoming the Three Horsemen and one Pedestrian of the Apocalypse, actually misplaced his trumpet in Salt Lake City, triggering a terrorist alert.

The bloody Mormons, eh? And here everybody thought it was gonna be the godless atheists that brought this down.

Indiana Jones versus Brian Jones

An immortal hero versus a dead rock god? No contest, baby. Indy takes it going away. Highly educational infographic from Tanya, who quite sensibly calls the contest the same way I do. If only all schools had access to charticles like these, eh?

Srebrenica, the music video

I’ve been meaning to steal this from Samaha for months now. It’s a gorgeous song, a lament for the victims of Srebrenica and Potocari, and is performed by Alma Ferovic.

Simon Cowell vs Edna the Mother-in-Law

This goes a long way to explaining why the man’s never married. If all their mother-in-laws are like this, it’s a wonder British men ever get hitched.

Edna totally pwns him, too. Enjoy watching the fearsome Simon Cowell conquered, eating crow and smiling through his pain, for the first and possibly only time in his entire life. Who doesn’t like to start the day with a little Schaedenfreude?

Saturday Squid!

Saturdrag

Really, when it comes to the ol’ Calamari, can you ever get enough?

Here at the ol’ raincoaster blog, we’re partial to our Calamari Grande, and our Octopodia Grande, as perhaps you may have noticed. And our accomplices from around the globe have been feeding our obsession lately, as perhaps you’ve also noticed, you smart cookie, you.

But wait, there’s MORE.

And MORE.

And songs!
