Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
the k.d. lang x-post cracked me up because I thought it before I read it here. You guys get out of my head!
For those looking for a "lighter side", McSweenys offers Facebook Hamlet
Hamlet wonders if he should continue to exist. Or not.
Hamlet thinks Ophelia might be happier in a convent.
Ophelia removed "moody princes" from her interests.
PETA wants Ben & Jerry's to replace Cows' milk in their ice cream. I never produced enough milk to try to make ice cream out of it.
Coma kitty time!!
PETA does itself in.

I'm trying to think of what the cow milk equivalent of this would be.
PETA is just irritating. (A few people on a vegan board I'm on have idly considered starting Vegans Against PETA. Seriously, they're the most public face of the animal rights movement, and a good deal of the time they just look ridiculous.)
The thing is, even the radical groups have their place. They make the moderates look reasonable and it does allow them to get issues raised and injustices fixed.
Still, wish they could back off with the batshit crazy sometimes.
Yeah, but PETA is so in your face that it often drowns out the moderates and it's easy to be tarred with the same brush of craxy such that even basic dialog doesn't happen. I'm speaking from the perspective of my hippy-dippy campus back when. Annoyed the fuck out of me.
Right after I graduated, I really, really, really wanted to return to an alumni event wearing a sexy black suit and pointy heels, wearing leather and gnawing on a bloody rare steak. Wearing a gun. And driving a hummer. Except for the last two, I've done them all, just not returned to an alumni event doing so. Oh, and preferably working for a "death" industry. Not doing that per se, either. But man, as much as I liked my college, did fire up the reactionary tendencies in this liberal.
Oh and lots of makeup and coiffed hair. Check on that too.
