Title This Tuesday: This is NOT What I Meant When I Said I Wanted a Pony for My Birthday

This photo is so bizarre it could easily pass for a WTF Wednesday or a Title This Tuesday. Today I’m busy working on a fun soon-to-be-revealed project in the studio, so no time to write a list. Instead be amused/horrified/baffled by this gem that comes to us via Fork Party and let us know what you think is going on below:

Mystery Monday: Lamenting Nature’s Obvious and Irrational Hatred of Japan

How could you want to drown/irradiate/bury under rubble a culture so amazing that it created this?

By the way, I’m pretty sure I’d stop eating my lunch if one of my soybeans started up a conversation with me, too.

Furthermore, if that island chain gets any more irradiated, I’m betting that by next harvest, edamame really WILL have eyes and the capacity for speech.

WTF Wednesday:There’s No Sex Like Elf Sex

Filed under: WTF Wednesday — Tags: , , , , , , , , — ex-boyfriend @ 10:25 am

Um, wtf? Seriously, I don’t think the WTF Wednesday “moniker” has ever been more apropos than in regard to this little wondrous snippet of interwebz magic. I find it kind of conflicting, too. While I think this girl’s actually published “book” (they must not have a word for zine in Iceland) is CRAMAZING, especially given the painstaking anatomical detail in the illustrations, it seems a bit tragic that such a relatively cute girl is so clearly insane and rabid with elf-lust.

Take heed, kiddies; this is what comes from a life lived in barren wastes listening to Bjork.

Your Daily Dose of WTF?!

Filed under: Daily Dose of... — Tags: , — ex-boyfriend @ 5:56 pm

I made a discovery today that was too bizarre not to share. Apparently the US Social Security Administration has a chorus. They sing acapella covers of TV theme shows. I found this out because they were singing at some street festival near my house today and I saw them performing while walking down the street.

That’s not all,  the Social Security Administration has an entire activity association for their employees complete with a band. How high school. I wonder if the SSA employees think their extracurricular activites will look good on their college applications or something, oh wait, nevermind, they’re probably already through with that. OK, I don’t get it. What ever happened to having friends and family and activities that don’t involve the people you see all day at work?

Weird Baby Having Practices in Asia

Filed under: Daily Dose of... — Tags: , , , , — ex-boyfriend @ 8:06 pm
I thought I’d heard about the weirdest baby-related thing in Asia when I read about the rice babies. You can send friends and family a giant bag of rice with baby’s photo and order the rice bag so that it is the same weight as your newborn. It will be just like holding baby for far away friends and relatives, right?

Now mothers-to-be in Taiwan can give birth in a Hello Kitty themed hospital. The Hello Kitty theme aims to reduce the stress of childbirth. “Patients are welcomed to the 30-bed hospital by a statue of Hello Kitty dressed in a doctor’s uniform. Then they will be greeted by the site of a pink elevator, complete with posters of the cartoon character on the wall.”
