My sister has found several of my worldcrossing posts since that's the only place remaining where I've posted with my full name.

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

Inappropriate Golden Books: Or, how to awesomely warp your children

Pixar Story Artist Josh Cooley has been taking iconic scenes from notably not child-safe movies like The Terminator, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Silence of the Lambs and rendering them as old-school Golden Book pages.

Cooley has collected this little nuggets of perfect in a book called Movies R Fun that he'll have for sale at this July's Comic Con International in San Diego.

I need that book. And a child to warp.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I need that book.

I can pick it up for you at Comic-Con if you remind me.

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

I'll have to talk to my Pixar connection to get one of those. That Silence of the Lambs bit is genius.

Ahhh, the Pornies. I had forgotten. So much Buffista lore gone by the wayside.

I remember when I was running deathmatches during my lunch hour and we'd all get into a fever waiting for somebody to get back from lunch to cast a deciding vote.

Too bad he used the wrong "its."

Whoops. And usually I notice those, as that's a peeve of mine.

It could be part of the lesson: "See, children, if you don't use good grammar, you'll become a serial killer."

Always Anti-fascist!

From a while ago, Aims, I like "Word Wars", I especially find it amusing that, in addition to the "mama's basement" type dudes you might expect, one was vaguely cornerboy, from West Baltimore. It also amused me that several aggrieved mothers complained about his language and talking about chronic, but thanks to my other fannish interests, I barely noticed. I think I might be what's wrong with America or something. Hec, I like Cheech and Chong. No shame in that game. You could always be stuck with the friggin' Disability Experience in America, which from here, is beginning to feel like that procedural cliche of "hours of boredom, enlivened by moments of terror"
