Vinyl Hell
Jan. 15th, 2010 03:56 pmI have stumbled across a gem of a YouTube Channel Vinyl Hell - he hosts a whole stack of cringeworthy 'novelty' records.
I'll let you peruse them at your leisure but I will link to one absolutely, tear-jerking classic: the LEGENDARY STARDUST COWBOY - 'Who's Knocking On My Door'
Pure genius!

ZOMG!!!
I just found a link to this blog.
A wife makes notes of the things her husband says in his sleep. Sleep Talkin' Man.
Random samples:
"Skipping to work makes everything better."
"I'm all blue with gravy spots. And I'm proud of it."
"Don't leave the duck there. It's totally irresponsible. Put it on the swing, it'll have much more fun."
"Oh, we're going to be late for the pogo ballet, stop it!"

Best Laugh All Week
Nov. 17th, 2009 09:05 pmI've only recently discovered the great and glorious ursulav's journal. But I'm glad I did. Take today's entry in which a handful of algae, a beagle and a doorstopping evangelist are woven into a tale of much glory.

customers_suck. Someone posted a link on there to a blog that might be even funnier Not Always Right
Sample
(Our car insurance policies include an extension that lets customers drive other vehicles with minimum-level cover, but it’s only available to customers over 25.)
Me: “Good morning, how can I help?”
Customer: “Hi, I’ve got a policy with you. Will it let me drive other cars?”
Me: “It might. Could I ask your age, please?”
Customer: “I’m 23.”
Me: “I’m afraid not, you have to be 25 years old or over before we give you that extension.”
Customer: “Oh, ok, how do I get that, then?”
Me: “…you have to turn 25.”
Customer: “Oh! When will that be?”
And another
Me: “Hello, how may I help you?”
Customer: “Hi, I was just wondering what is currently showing at the moment?”
Me: “Well, the current production is Timon of Athens.”
Customer: “Oh? Is that another sequel of The Lion King? Can I book seats for that?”
Me: “It’s a Shakespearean tragedy. It’s not about lions.”
Customer: “Oh, so it’s just about the meerkat?”

I stumbled on this site a while back and just didn't get around to posting about it.
It's TED.
According to the website TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading.
They hold conferences and seminars where really cool, top-rated-in-their-field people come to give short talks to an audience of interested people.
And they put these talks up on the web for anyone to watch.
A few random samples:
An Inventory of the Invisible
The Web as Random Acts of Kindness
Oliver Sacks on Hallucinations
Life Lessons from an Ad man
WARNING - This Site Will Steal Whole Days of Your Life!!

Obama is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
WTF? He's barely started doing anything to get this, let alone have any results. I'm a fan of his, but this is way too much too soon.
Apparently it's because the committee: "...would like to support what he is trying to achieve". Well great! Send money to one of his campaigns. Give him a gold star and a Blue Peter Badge (but not a gold one) but not the Nobel Peace Prize. Come on! Wait until he actually does walk on water before that!
