Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Scary-ass deap-sea beasties, never before photographed: [link]

A new book, "The Deep: The Extraordinary Creatures of the Abyss" by Claire Nouvian, a French journalist and film director, reveals haunting images of some of the most bizarre creatures on the globe, ones that live in the deepest parts of the ocean. In many cases the creatures- some of which were photographed as far down as four miles- have never been recorded on film before, and some are still unidentified.

I have soy sauce all over my shirt. I'm not as vexed by this as I could be, because it looks likely that I'll be going to a concert I thought I'd miss out on, and even though I will possibly be the oldest person there, I think it will be awesome. And if I'm mistaken for anyone's mom, I'll just ostentatiously drink some beer, or something.

Just to show how weird my brain is... when I read the incomplete lyrics to the Ewoks song, my brain fills in the rest thusly:

Yub nub / eee chop yub nub / ah toe meet toe pee-chee keene / g'noop dock fling / can you tell me the way to get / the way to get to Sesame Street?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

For once, I am truly able to use chatspeak without cringing: lol!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have the Golden Girls theme song in my head. Today is really shaping up miserably.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"Dutch, the coolest and trendiest of languages."

I had nothing to do with inserting the Golden Girls theme into ita's head.

Bless you, my iPod, for rescuing me from the dread pirate earworm.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Earworm had grown so rich, he wanted to retire. He took me to his cabin and he told me his secret. 'I am not the Dread Pirate Earworm' he said. 'My name is My Milkshake; I inherited the ship from the previous Dread Pirate Earworm, just as you will inherit it from me. The man I inherited it from is not the real Dread Pirate Roberts either. His name was Mahna Mahna. The real Earworm has been retired 15 years and living like a king in Patagonia.'
