Lukewarm Links and Tattoo Thursday 11/8
I hate getting old. Arthritis really sucks. I got all my grape wine bottled now so it just has to age and then I'll probably have to do another round of filtering because I've noticed sediment settling in the bottom of the bottles. Tomorrow or this weekend I hope to bottle my hard lemonade. Well enough boring stuff, time for links and tattoos.
1. When I was a kid one of the best toys you could get was the action figure. There were so many out there. It seemed like the best way to merchandise a movie or TV show was to create a line of action figures. Well here are 7 action figures that didn't do so well and actually ruined their characters. I am glad that I didn't have any of those.
2. There's not much you can do with old cassettes...not so fast...here are 11 cool things made from old cassettes.
3. I've been toying with the idea of doing a post about bad cakes. Well I haven't gotten around to it so here is a collection of bad cakes.
4. I enjoy the Muppets and I know a few of you do as well. Here are 11 Muppets who made 11 or fewer appearances on the Muppet Show.
5. Here are 11 pop culture references a lot of younger readers won't understand. I guess I am old because I understood a majority of those.
6. I enjoy TV shows and I love tracing shows based and their spin-offs. It's always amazing to see how many spin-offs All in the Family and Happy Days inspired although I don't know if you can count Happy Days since it is somewhat of a spin-off. Anyway here's 11 spin-offs that almost happened.
7. I mentioned I enjoy find the lists on wikipedia. Here is a list of headgear.
8. Are you hosting a party and looking for a game to play? Well try Cards Against Humanity. It's sort of like that Apples to Apples but for degenerates.
9. Now that the election is over we can get back to our daily lives and prepare for the 2014 midterm election. But before you do that check out this collection of funny campaign signs for fictional campaigns.
10. Are you looking for a Christmas present for that hard to shop for person on your list? What do you get for the person who has it all? VELVET PAINTINGS FOR YOUR INNER-NERD!
11. I'm looking to lose some weight but I'll avoid these 8 disturbing diets. #6 on that list...Wisconsin is a wild place.
12. I'm not much of a fan of the Garfield comic strip but then I found Garfield as Garfield and was an instant fan. President James Garfield replaces Garfield the cat and hilarity ensues.
Tattoo Time!
I guess that's one way to take away from being self-conscious about scars.
Unless the person you love dies
I think if you'd try that you might need a tattoo to cover up a bite scar. I know I should get one to cover up my dog bite scar.
Well I think I'm going to have nightmares now. I'm sure there is a story here but all I can think of is American Horror Story.
Yes, us Wisconsinites not only enjoy Big Macs but we also like our PBR.
Well the all seeing eye didn't see someone take a bite out of it.
I at first thought, "Oh how fitting, putting the Jews next to the Nazis" but that swastika isn't twisted so it's from Hinduism.
I don't think I'll be able to eat pepperoni pizza ever again.
I hope moss doesn't grow on that rolling stone
It's nice to see your mom getting outside and going for a walk.
Well that's just swell
In the not-too-distant future --
Next Sunday A.D. --
There was a guy named Joel,
Not too different from you or me.
He worked at Gizmonic Institute,
Just another face in a red jumpsuit.
He did a good job cleaning up the place,
But his bosses didn't like him
So they shot him into space.
We'll send him cheesy movies,
The worst we can find (la-la-la).
He'll have to sit and watch them all,
And we'll monitor his mind (la-la-la).
Now keep in mind Joel can't control
Where the movies begin or end (la-la-la)
Because he used those special parts
To make his robot friends.
Robot Roll Call: (All right, let's go!)
Cambot! (Pan left!)
Gypsy! (Hi, girl!)
Tom Servo! (What a cool guy!)
Croooow! (He's a wisecracker.)
If you're wondering how he eats and breathes
and other science facts (la la la),
Then repeat to yourself, "It's just a show,
I should really just relax
For Mystery Science Theater 3000!"
I bet someone was celebrating the Colorado and Washington state election results.
I saw this on Tumblr. You gotta have a notary. You just gotta.
Eyeball iced pastry carrot all? Oh well, have a great weekend.

"Love comes back to you." Yep, especially when your partner bends you over and you cum with your back facing him.
Lol. I'm considering the pizza tattoo. I think I'd go Hawaiian.
Eye Doughnut Care At All.....niiiice. There are some truly awful tattoos out there. Sad that these are really on peoples' skin. -_-
You made hard lemonade? I'm generally not a fan, but I kind of want to try this.
Why so many 11s??
A velvet Dwight Schrute? YES, PLEASE!
That dog tattoo is awful. Putting it over a dog-bite scar (I have one on my face, but I'm not willing to tattoo over it) would be a cool idea if it wasn't so poorly executed. I watch enough tattoo shows to feel like I'm an expert on this. Well, at least mildly-well-versed.
The person who has that kid one has something wrong with them. That was awful.
yeah smoke weed and you forget how to spell. >.<
The first tattoo - I mean, I'm sorry that that person's leg was mauled to leave it like that, but I'd probably cover it up all the time.
Somke Weed - and that's why I don't like weed anymore.
The tattoo of the little girl is downright depressing. I didn't need to see something like that today.
I'm enjoying Garfield as Garfield. Too bad Garfield was shot.
Everyone knows Twiggy. ESP ANA GRLLS FO LYFE
That link about the cassettes - clever stuff. I still have several dozen of them in perfect working order. Looking for a way to transfer them to CD.
"I <3 Zac Efron." YOU'RE LAME, KILL YOURSELF.
"Your mom" jokes are almost always funny. I liked that one. Artistically, it's shit, but it's funny as hell.
ah those tattoos! is there no end to the horribilities!?
I can't say I like any of these tattoos and the pizza one just confuses me.
Didn't know you made your own wine. Hope it tastes good when your threw.
I donut carrot all? What? So confused, and I didn't somke weed. Also, I don't think I want any pizza.
@npr32486 - yep that is true as well
@ohellino - I have never been able to enjoy Hawaiian pizza. There's something so off-putting about pineapple on pizza.
@crazy2love - yeah...I knew that
It really is scary all the tattoos out there. I'll be interested to see how the next generation, the children of all these people who have tattoos, react to tattoos and if they'll get them. I think they will avoid them.
@ZepBlueEyedGirl - it looks and smells so good. I haven't tasted it because I think I prematurely bottled it because it looks like it may still be fermenting. I had one cork shoot out of a bottle. I have to filter it again because I notice sediments settling at the bottom of the bottle.
I think I went nuts with 11 because it's November.
When I first found that link he had paintings of each main cast member of Freaks and Geeks. I so wanted a velvet Bill Hawerchuck on my wall.
I tend to avoid tattoo shows. I have seen on my TV Guide that there is a show on Spike about bad tattoos. I think I should check it out.
@BookographyReviews - I really don't know what is wrong with people
@Marica0701 - I guess I don't mind marijuana but I hate all the faux-culture surrounding it like kids writing 420 on their books or saying they want to name their kids Mary Jane.
@Rob_of_the_Sky - Garfield should've been shot a long time ago to be put out of his misery and it should've been done on a Monday. Coincidentally, President Garfield did die on a Monday.
@ShimmerBodyCream - oh yeah, I forgot she was an inspiration
@Unstoppable_Inner_Strength - I have seen a device that you can hook up to a computer through a USB port that will let you transfer cassettes into mp3 files. I don't know any more but I know they sell them on Amazon.
Yeah, "your mom" jokes are always funny unless they are about your mom. I'd love to see whose mom that tattoo was intended to insult.
@Zissu25 - I think they can get much worse
@LadyofWaters - I had a funny experience yesterday. I just got home and was tired and I hear this big pop. I go out into my kitchen and here one of the bottles of the lemonade had pushed out the cork. I think I bottled it too quickly and that it's still fermenting and the gas pushed out the cork.
@leaflesstree - I definitely can't eat a plain pepperoni pizza again. I was thinking about plain cheese but who in their right mind eats plain cheese pizza?
@godfatherofgreenbay - maybe it was a sign you need to celebrate life more
