You know what I just typed? I’m such a failure. For I have, for you, another boingboing link. But it’s a cool one, so you’ll forgive me. Won’t you? Please? I present to you the anti-gravity room. I’m shutting the computer down now. I am.

Wooo, I like it. People have set their background images to photographs of the area behind their monitors. I’m going to have to have a go now!

Well, at least he’s honest.

It’s not often that I find forwarded emails funny, let alone laugh out loud. This managed it, though. It claims to come from a ‘Washington Post’ challenge in which they “asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition”. Believe that or not, it’s pretty good :-)
Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.

Osteopornosis: A degenerate’s disease. (This one got extra credit.)

Karmageddon: It’s like, when everybody is sending off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like,! the Earth explodes and it’s like, a serious bummer.

Decafalon (n.): The grueling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you.

Glibido: All talk and no action.

Dopeler effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.

Arachnoleptic fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you’ve accidentally walked through a spider web.

When Nod and I were in Las Vegas we went on the rides at the top of the Stratosphere hotel. This wasn’t there at the time, though. Woohoo, I’m just going to have to go back :-)

Such Is Live TV

Damn, I actually watched the program but managed to miss this…I did, however, notice this after a verbal exchange between the head judge and Patrick Kielty on Fame Academy (it was a wanking gesture). I think I was on the judge’s side, actually.

Right, must start working. Only 2.5 months left!

Jonathan Ross on Gaming

Just thought you might enjoy this clip from Jonathan Ross’ show yesterday morning. The woman he’s speaking to phoned in for the weekly quiz and the fade in the middle connects two different sections. Given his reactions to her muppetry, I think he’s One Of Us :-) If you’re from the BBC, I apologise profusely and will take down this clip immediately if asked!

If you’re looking for more evidence that I’m an amoral criminal, see this thread :-) Perfect timing or what…
