• Lukewarm Links 2/17

  Wellity wellity wellity...here we are again...clean up on aisle 5.  Damn, The Office was great tonight.  I hate to say it but if I were on that staff I would consider ending the series after this season so that it could go out on a high note but what do I know, I watched the Cavemen series and submitted my ideas.  Too bad they canceled that show; I could have saved it...two words: flashback sequences.  Oh I keep going on and you don't care, you want links.  well here they are.

  1.  Kim Jong Il has the greatest job in the world.  He just goes around looking at things.  Don't believe me?  Then take a look at Kim Jong Il Looking at Things.  I so want to be a dictator.  Maybe I can be the next dictator of Wisconsin. 

  2.  There was an episode of Family Guy where Peter fed Magnum P.I. who was on the screen of his TV and then when the shot cut to Higgins he scolded Higgins because he was already fed.  Well that got me thinking, "Is Family Guy funny or hilarious?"  And then I wondered, "Do people actually feed inanimate objects?"  Well they do and here's Feeding Objects.

  3.  When I see politicians I automatically thing "Mean Girls".  Well someone else did and they made a successful tumblr called Mean Girls in the White House.  Yeah I can't describe it correctly, you just have to see it.

  4.  I remember a person in a minority cultures class in college saying that he understood the plight of African Americans because he was a waiter at a Denny's.  That was one of the only times in college that my laughter disrupted the class.  I don't know where I'm going with this but here's I Studied Abroad.  Read the description to get the proper feel of the site.

  5.  Terry Richardson is a photographer and this is his photo diary.  Xanga sure could use some popular photographer to have a photo diary but then they would need their photo uploader to work properly.

  6.  One thing I have always disliked in movies is when they cut to a flashback and they show the main character as a child and the child looks nothing like the actor.  Here's a collection of those casting moments but they aren't all bad, some are pretty good.  Oh and for those close to me, you'll understand why I love February 6th even if he dyed his hair.

  7.  I know some of you don't believe when I say that I am Christian but I guess that is a bad indictment on my part.  I just don't want to go shoving my beliefs down your throat and I would like your respect in not doing that to me.  Anyway, enough of that, one thing I have disliked in church is how pastors and priests have horrible vestments(their uniforms).  I know I posted this link to Bad Vestments before but a friend who is a pastor showed me this stole...I tawt I taw a sitty stole.

  8. If you are a small guy and have a difficult time keeping a condom on, there is now a trash bag condom.  Put it on and tighten it just like a trash bag.  I immediately think of Willie Nelson in Half Baked, "You know how much condoms cost back in the day?" "How much?"  "Hell if I know, we never used them."

  9.  A while back I was exploring webcams situated around the globe and I found one for the Abbey Road crossing where The Beatles were photographed for their Abbey Road album.  Well I sat around watching for about 10 or 15 minutes and I counted at 5 different groups going out in the middle of the road to get their photograph taken while crossing the street.  It's amazing how patient motorists are.

  10.  I was watching TV earlier this evening and saw a commercial for McDonald's and there was something in the commercial that set me off and made me remember the McDonald's commercials of old.  Those things were terrifying.  I'm surprised kids actually want to go to McDonald's after seeing some of those commercials.  Here are 8 of the worst. 

  11.  I've always been fascinated with what people eat for their last meal before they die.  I guess I am odd like that but I just find it so fascinating to know that sort of stuff.  It's made me think of what I'd like for my last meal.  Anyway, enough morbid thoughts here, go look at the Last Supper Club.  I think I could make a few posts about that site.

  12.  And why aren't the tea baggers jumping on the protesting against Scott Walker?  I think it's because Obama stood up for the protesting and the tea baggers policy is that whatever position Obama takes, they take the opposite.  So he said we should wait and see about what happens in Egypt and they say we aren't doing enough.  He says we should support the protesting in Wisconsin, tea baggers say we shouldn't.  Well when I look at it, I'm shocked that all the people who were cheering for the Egyptians aren't doing that for us Wisconsinites.  When it comes down to it, we are protesting for the same thing as the Egyptians...sky-rocketing food prices, lowered wages, no say in politics...Scott Walker has become the Mubarak of the Midwest...he is Mini Mubarak.
  
  Oh Madison...you're so clever, you gave us The Onion and the recall.  And if you don't get this, check out Scumbag Steve.
  
  
  Things got pretty wild over in Egypt.  IF only we had Carl Spackler putting out the fires in Wisconsin.
  
  And a Diet Coke, please.
  
  I WANT!
  
  Well, that's unfortunate.  Oh wait, that's good.  Too bad he can't restore worker's rights.
  
  Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
  
  You mad?  OK, I had to get that out of my system.
