Happy Friday, y'all!  Big plans for the weekend?  Maybe thinking about shakin' your groove thang like Robocop over there?  That lovely attitude en pointe pose (total guess there, never took ballet) was drawn by super talented artist Jesse Lonergan on his "Dancer a Day" blog.  I highly recommend taking the time to scroll through his tumblr.  (Dancer a Day h/t Pleated Jeans)

According to a recent poll, 78% of viewers are enjoying Ryan Seacrest's coverage of the Olympics.  Apparently, they're also fans of Bob Costas, too.  Two things: one, where do they find the people who take these polls, and two, don't encourage NBC, for goodness sake, or it'll be all Seacrest, all the time!  (Washington Post) 

I think my next pet shall be a hedgehog.  We can even drink Lactaid together!  (Colossal)

Wendy's in Japan has started selling lobster and caviar sandwiches for $16 a pop.  Interesting, but I think I'll just stick with the Baconator.  (laist)

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)

It's National Hot Young Studs On Motorcycles Day. Totally.

That there's Steven R. McQueen (the iconic actor's grandson).  I have no other words.  Just sounds.  Ahem...links?

Steve McQueen - no not that Steve McQueen (I was disappointed despite knowing that THE Steve McQueen passed away years ago) - claims Michael Fassbender was passed over at Oscar nomination time because Americans are prudes.  (The Guardian)

A Swedish doctor is being charged with two cases of sexual abuse for demonstrating what he called the "Windshield Wiper" technique on two of his patients.  Nowhere in the article is this technique described.  Nice reporting, random Swedish writer.  (The Local)

I haven't been able to enjoy the Second Coming (heh heh, coming..) of Beavis and Butthead, as I don't have cable or satellite right now. LAME. Makeup effects artist Kevin Kirkpatrick clearly likes them too, since he made these real-life bust-mask hybrids of them. Butthead totally looks like a kid I went to school with.(reddit) 

After that, here's something a lot less terrifying. Which company is this: The company argues that it's hard to hire the best people in the world when the state where it's based discriminates against them. (The Atlantic)

Here's another piece that blames the entertainment industry for people choosing to pirate movies. What do you think? (GIGAOM)

Now wrap your head around this: Russia was spied on...by a rock. I shit you not. (Canada.com)
