Best. Week. Ever.

You have to love their Mac ad spoofs: http://www.bestweekever.tv/2006/07/07/bwe-mac-ads/.

When you're having fun . . .

... sometimes you don't notice that you haven't eaten. In a long time. Today I had been doing the Geek Thing with some new programming tools after lunch and somehow it rolled around to dinner time. I got up to go get some food down at the local Safeway and by the time I returned it had been two hours later, close to 9:00p. I had heard about some people going to see a movie, A Scanner Deeply, which started around 10-ish. And finally by the time I had gotten home it was about 12:30a. About 11 hours after I had last eaten something! When I was saying goodbye to the people I dropped off I couldn't even think straight. It was pretty bad. And as I walked up the hill to my apartment door I finally finished my mental calculation that it was, yes, about 11 hours...!

Speaking of food, though, there is this hilarious new vodcast cooking show called Ctrl+Alt+Chicken. What makes it funny is that the two main hosts, Alex and Heather, really can't cook all that well. They substitute the wrong ingredients, don't use all the right cooking methods, and then stand around debating what might have gone wrong. All in all, it's good fun. Go watch! I'm going to go eat something...

"Awesomely long"

From Scoop on Poop:
How does poop stay together, like in links?
(Question submitted by Blink182 Girl)

In humans, soft poop is really one long, mostly continuous sausage before it comes out. It gets its "link" look because we tend to pinch off lengths of it with the anal sphincter as the poop emerges. If a person pinches hard enough, the poop separates into several turd units. If the person doesn't pinch that hard, the turds may stay connected.

If you can remain sufficiently relaxed, you can produce an awesomely long poop that will coil up inside the toilet.

I love the Internet. It's not just for porn.

When automatic digital censorship s**ks

Apparently iTunes now has word filtering enabled. And of course it's not contextual, so you get funny things like:


It took me a minute to realize that they had censored the harmless word "suck". Hehe...
