Today Is FUN ONLY! And Some 90s Music Videos.

Pinky McLadybits







I wish that this book here, on the left? I wish it was mine. Let's get to the links!

Artist takes breakfast cereal. Artist uses it to make interesting and awesome photos of landscapes. CEREALISM! (Ernie Button)

Since we will most definitely get another Star Wars movie, we might still get to buy these rejected tie-ins. (Laughing Squid)

The Bloggess got pulled over by a police officer. She was hilarious while talking to him. You should also treat yo self and read the random bunches of thoughts in the post before this one. (The Bloggess)

TK has written a SUPERB piece about race and gender on "The Walking Dead". (Pajiba)

Speaking of TK, do you like whiskey? Do you like advent calendars? I have something for you! Well, to show you. (Uncrate)

Whatever Happened To Pinup Halloween Photos?

Pinky McLadybits






Oh, Courtney. How I love you and your takes on the sometimes odious and always over the top shenanigans of celebrities. This time Courtney takes on Timberlake and Biel's wedding. (Pajiba)

Moving from dickbags to amazing DIYers, here is a tutorial on how to create some sweet dragon wings for Halloween. If you have the time, I highly recommend looking through Jen's other tutorials. (Epbot)

Australia has so many strange creatures that I'm gobsmacked that they don't have actual winged dragons as well. (WOOOO SEGUE WAY!) Check out this baby echidna puggle. And yes, I thought it was a puppy of some kind before I clicked through...(Tastefully Offensive)

This site is equal parts guilty pleasure and just guilt. It's a live fashion blog in that it shows you photos of people walking down the street in Williamsburg. Then you rate the style of the people walking by. It's guilty pleasure because I love people watching. It's guilt because most of the people probably don't know they're being judged by quite so many people. (Styleblaster)

CBRIV: Book#10: Let's Pretend This Never Happened (A Mostly True Memoir) by Jenny Lawson

Pinky McLadybits




I was first made aware of The Bloggess when she got Beyonce, the giant metal chicken. (Not to be confused with the heinously rich and talented Beyonce, wife of Jay-Z and not a giant metal chicken.) I laughed long and hard at the writing style and was hooked on Jenny Lawson's type of humor, which is also my humor. 

When she wrote a book, I wanted to buy it and get the autographed book plate, but the amount of poor we were was more than the amount of money we had. Dammit. I finally broke down and bought the Kindle edition (and before you sneer, "OH! You have a Kindle now but couldn't buy a damn book a few months ago? I CALL BULLSHIT." I'll have you know that it is the Kindle app on my iPad. Which makes me look like a lying liar again, which I am not because I was given this iPad as a gift. I am a lucky girl. And I sound like an asshole.)

Pinky Made the Mistake of Letting Me Have Free Reign with Today's Hot Links

Tamatha





It's summer, (maybe not technically, but come on, it's summer) which means it's time for all that summer reading you want to do.  Perhaps you are looking for some recommendations?  This collection should keep you busy. (NPR)

OK, while I was looking for that link, I found this fascinating story about Dorothy Parker and how her ashes came to be interned at NAACP's headquarters in Baltimore. (NPR)

One more link for book recommendations (you know your book stack isn't quite high enough, because it hasn't toppled over and trapped you yet).  Last year, I coordinated Cannonball Read III for Pajiba, and the Cannonballers came up with this great list of the best books they read for CBR-III. (Pajiba)

My Husband Won't Let Me Deadpool The Car. Dead Mice Would Never Fly.

Pinky McLadybits





Our own MetricJenn recently realized that Murder She Wrote is available on Canadiastani Netflix. So our pal Jay pointed her to something relevant to her interests. (Fuck Yeah, Murder She Wrote!)

Nerdy enough for you? Well, Jay also led us to these tasty treats. PIZZA IS COMING! (That's Nerdalicious)

Whenever I have to think of a fake name, I just steal Mrs. Chanandaler Bong. It sounds fancy and naughty at the same time. Just like Chandler dancing on things. (Chandler Dancing On Things)

Valentine's Day Is Here. It Is Known!

Pinky McLadybits





You probably already know about this, but Innernet Magpie has been blasting our Facebook feed with SCHNAUZER PUPPEH CAM! And I must share it. EEEEEE! (Sportsman Paradise Online)

Innernet suggests keeping the puppy cam open in your browser at work and sneaking a peak when someone is a douche. She gets to see the puppies a lot, I bet. I need to look at them after reading about the price hike of Whitney's music after her death. (Venture Beat)

Let's keep with the adorable animal theme, shall we? Oh, Otter! There are better beers out there than Bud Light! (Animals Doing People Things)

Have you heard? The Bloggess has added another taxidermied animal to her collection! (The Bloggess)

Less Links Means More Ogling The Hump Day List

I think we've all heard about Starbucks offering alcohol in select locations. I'm sick of hearing about it. I'd much rather this were the bigger Starbucks story. (That's Nerdalicious!)

I've been wanting this shower curtain and bath mat (ThinkGeek), but my husband says noooo. I wonder if he'd let me decorate the house with any of these...(Home Tone)

Speaking of red things, have you seen The Bloggess's Traveling Red Dress Project? It's still going strong. (The Bloggess)

Hoarding is bad, as anyone who has watched even a minute of the show Hoarders can attest. Messy, smelly, and liable to help your house burn to the ground. (Huffington Post)

Even worse than hoarding beer cans is hoarding animals. Keep in mind, all of these were hoarded in an apartment. (Sun Sentinal via Fark)

Zaclor? Swifron? I'm Bad At This.

It's good to know that some actors realize that they are in sucky movies. However, Heigl and Cusack have lost their damn minds if they think those were their worst movies. (mental floss)

What if iPod games had Facebook accounts? If you guessed "Shit would be awesome", you would be correct. (Dorkly)

I have got to get a game system that will allow me to play Resident Evil 6. I still haven't played 5. Sad panda. (Topless Robot)
