Fun/funny/interesting things
I have a paper to write by friday, which I'm totally ignoring. In the meantime:
*Cat Town
*An lj community apparently devoted to making the Lost cast out of various Barbies.
Sayid, Hurley, Charlie and Sawyer made me cry with laughter
And now for some webcomics:
* The Perry Bible Fellowship- Not a cohesive story line, but rather one strip jokes. They're weird, twisted and a little sick. My favorites are: "Billy the Bunny", " Astronaut Fall", and "Ballerina Slippers", and "Sun Love".
*I'm sure by now everyone is reading iharthdarth but it needs to be mentioned anyway. So cute! I love Tough Love, Talking to the Pope, Thank You Master Windex, and Good on the Inside.
*Lastly, there's Cat and Girl which can sometimes be a little hit and miss, but I still like it. God Bless America, this one, Happy Birthday, Cat and Girl Present: National Anthems, and The Blue Comic are all really amusing.
And they're also selling the "Capitalists do it Ruthlessly" t-shirt from Cat sells out and I'm debating whether or not I need it.
One of my latest obsessions is reading blogs from the middle east. I've been routinely following The Big Pharoah, an Egyptian liberal. He can seem a bit simplistic/idealistic at times, but his english is good and his posts are well thought out. My cousin even wrote an essay that he posted here.
The other blog is A Glimpse of Iraq written by an Iraqi who owns a sharecropped farm (I'm sure there's a real term for this I just can't think of it at the moment). It hasn't been updated in a while, but what's there is of the lovely and thoughtful "slice of life" variety.
