I Fell in Love in the Library, Once Upon a Time

I could spend all day looking at the gorgeous libraries in this first link.  That image to the left is from Priceline.com founder Jay Walker's personal home library - and that shiny object hanging from the ceiling?  Sputnik.  Seriously.  (Beautiful-Libraries)

One book I'm sure you wouldn't find in Erica Jong's personal library would be "Fifty Shades of Grey."  Here, she and other notable erotica experts discuss the book's sexual merits (as opposed to its literary merits - or lack thereof).  (Velvet Roper)

M is for Magneto, But W is for Weekend!

This amazing Magneto print is the work of artist René Mambembé.  It's just one of a series called "helvetica, my hero" that combines typography with superheroes and villains.  (Behance)

Would you approve of a tax on beer and cigarettes if it meant it would help treat 34 million people worldwide who have HIV?  What if I mentioned that the tax could be as little as 1.5 cents a bottle or 10 cents a carton?  (NPR)

I'm not one for doing funky manicures, as I'm pretty clumsy when it comes to painting small details, but this marbled manicure seems like it might be klutz-proof!  And all it takes is some plastic wrap!  (Birchbox)

News of an affair between Kristen Stewart and director Rupert Sanders broke this week and fans of Stewart and Robert Pattinson lost their damn minds.  Now, Liberty Ross, Rupert's wife, has responded with her own take on Stewart.  If I weren't already on her side for being the scorned wife, I think this would've won me over.  (The Gloss)

ANIMAL! ANIMAL! LIKE WOMAN!

While watching the previews before The Dark Knight Rises with Metric Jenn on Saturday, we both cackled like fiends at the trailer for The Campaign. I'm guessing that the three minutes in a hotel room with Ferrell and Galifianakis were just as hilarity-inducing. (Dallas News)

I think it might be cool to like Starbucks again, what with their philanthropy and awesome stance on same-sex marriages. Let us see which state has the most Starbucks, shall we? (I Love Coffee)

Hat tip to Mswas for this adorable photo and story. I'm not sure where it originated, but she linked to imgur with it. (imgur)

Have you ever been to IKEA and thought, "If only they had beer here to go with my futon and reasonably priced meatballs."? GOOD NEWS, CHUM! (Geekosystem)

HULK LINK! HULK SMASH!

I found this Cracked list to be more than funny. I found it to be adorable while also making me feel like I haven't really made my obsessions work for me. I'm still not married to John Krasinski, if you'll notice! (Cracked)

Of course there is a site dedicated to old school gaming trivia! If you think you're a hardcore gamer of the days of yore, think again. (Did You Know Gaming via Neatorama)

By now you have probably seen the touching farewell given to Kristen Wiig by Saturday Night Live. It was really sweet! Here are the Top 5 SNL Departures. (BuzzFeed)

I never really stop to think about the types of things that are fossilized. I always thought only bones and the occasional mosquito trapped in amber were the only things found while digging for fossils. So an ink sac? With soft ink still instead? That blows my little mind with awesome. (National Geographic)

Vacation, All I Ever Wanted: But Now I'm Back

I'm back! We're all back! Did you miss us? I hope so because I missed yoooooou!!!!

Oh, man. You know how women that use birth control to keep from getting pregnant or to regulate their hormones or to hlp them ovulate properly so they can get pregnant are sluts?? Now you can add your name and support to sluts every where!! (Sluts Across America)

After that, you may still have some anger. Perhaps it can be sated by these photos of objects at the point on explodey impact. BOOM! (Twisted Sifter)

Rage no more, my dolls. Immerse yourself in the beauty of these superhero magazine covers and movie stills. I like the Wonder Woman "We Can Do It!"-style poster the best. (Comics Alliance)

I'm Not Gonna Lie, You May Be Grossed Out Today

Above a urinal. She's got my vote!

Let's start off with a couple of links concerning lady parts, shall we? Even if you don't want to, too bad! I HAVE THE POWER. Ahem.

I've seen sites with penises in costume so it is only right that there is now a site that shows breasts in costumes. NSFW. (via The Mary Sue)

Breasts are amazingly versatile and generally win the costume contests that they enter. Unfortunately, ovaries and uteruses and all of the things that cause us to ride the cotton pony monthly are less fun. But maybe all of the pain, fatigue, and cravings are trying to tell us something? (The Great Fitness Experiment)

Maybe next time the Crimson Tide comes a knockin' you can whip up a batch of these broccoli bites instead of eating a bag of chocolate-covered potato chips. They have cheese in them! (Food Renegade)
