Because books.

That's right - Batman as a squirtgun. Batman is bent over (to be more gun shaped) and the water apparantly squirts out of his mouth. The water plug is in his butt.

Oh, that is so wrong, in all the right ways.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

In Israel (and I think in a few other Mediterranean countries) they eat watermelon with cheese. (A crumbly cheese sort of like feta.)
Manouri? That is delicious. I eat it with fruit whenever I find it.

And chilis in chocolate. Nummy. Plei and I "invented" a drink with pepper vodka and Godiva liquor that was delicious. It was new to us but I doubt it hadn't been done before somewhere. At least on a bet.

Oh dear, that batgun is just more amusing than a children's toy should be. And looks too angular to be a more adult toy.

So funny.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Squirtgun Batman. That's right - Batman as a squirtgun. Batman is bent over (to be more gun shaped) and the water apparantly squirts out of his mouth. The water plug is in his butt.

Holy homoeroticism, Batman!

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

I put salt on pretty much all my melons. Intrigued by sugar on canteloupe.

I set up a wireless router today, in anticipation of my new TiVo. I'm trying to decide if I should give the TiVo a name. Maybe something fandomy.

Maybe the Happy Happy Joy Joy song is selling Don't Pee On The Electric Fence.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

You know, the Batman gun just adds credence to my theory that every company should have an Intern for Inappropriate Humor. Anything that's going out to the public should be run by this guy (College student getting credit, so you don't have to pay him). If he laughs, you need to re-design.

Chiming in on the wrongness of the Batman squirt gun.

I was going to try something funny, but... I got nuthin.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I agree that the President saying he read "three Shakespeares" souunds weird, but if I say I'm going to watch a Kurosawa, I don't care what genre it is. I'm telling you who directed the movie I'm about to sit down to.

I'm with you. I can't figure out what the distinction is, but I'm not convinced it's genre.

Also, while "we heard four Beethovens" sounds weird, saying "I listened to a lot of Beethoven yesterday" does not seem weird at all.

Hm, with both Shakespeare ad Beethoven, there could be confusion as to what from you're talking about - poems or plays, sonatas or symphonies - but with Kurosawa you at least know it's a movie.
