summer

Ahhh, it's not truly summer until you have gashes and scrapes on your legs that sting in the shower, from your jagged metal bike pedals.. I ended up biking around more and more yesterday on account of the fine weather and staggered hangouts..

Yesterday I unexpectedly went to the house of this girl from the Main library who I chum with! She lives in "Vieux Secteur" Hull actually, literally a stone's throw from where my ex-boyfriend lived. (Actually, maybe I should throw some stones..) It was so random that I ran into her when I had two hours to kill and just went there! I have never really seen her outside of work, except at a gay SAW event before. She drank wine right after getting home from work, now that's livin', heh heh..

It's pretty good, my friend Christina C is coming from PEI next week, I only see her about once a year or less! It should be a good glutenfrei time..

Oh, I have been forbidden to use the internets or slack off at work, although it's only really an issue in the smaller branches where nothing much ever happens. Make work, make work I guess..

Here are my favorite internet video/animations from the last while.. you may have seen some, but I thought I should put them to paper..


Youtube Videos
He Man Sings This is the best of them all, and the gayest.. Never has a dubbed-over cartoon been so profound :(
Parni s Balalaikoi #1 Pretty amazing comedy duet of these two Russian dudes from an old TV show.. Bayan (kind of russian accordion) and balalaika! If you want to see what instrument I play..
Parni s Balalaikoi #2 Second comedy duet, the song is even in Russian-accented French.. (Nota Bene both of these videos are very horrifying in a sense..)
Meretz Ha-Klezmorim Some Israeli political commercial with this animated klezmer band that gets out of control.. I have no idea who the politicians mocked herein are anyways, but it's a good watch!
our dear and great president Ahmadinejad Video with Rammstein song that alternates between Jewish-conspiracy imagery, Palestinians being abused by Israeli soldiers, and propaganda worship of president Ahmadinejad.. I just included it because it's rare to see such blatant propaganda on the internet in this form.. I actually decided to read up about Rammstein after this, I guess they are not Nazis at all as the person linking to the video claimed. But look at this stupid thing on the wikipedia article, "Rammstein came under heavy criticism from conservative and Christian groups in the United States, who claimed (among other things) that Till Lindemann's rolling Teutonic r's were an imitation of Adolf Hitler's diction." OK, I guess any band that sings with an American accent is purposefully trying to invoke the Unabomber, eh? Anyways, see below for more Rammstein action, they are internet-video gold I guess..

Animutations


"Dew Haast" One of the better animutations IMO, because of the Rammstein song ;) It gets better after about the first minute..


Bagadada Bop Kind of Japanese punk nonsense with Britney Spears


The Steady Descent into Madness of Captain Lou Albano This is a pretty amazing song.. I like how this guy always says "Hey...."


Jesus H. Christ This is the most easygoing/calm one of all, I would always think of the song when I was on my trip and couldn't watch these..


Cold Heart Professor Cold heart, this one is short but the song is pretty great.

Jesus, it took me a full hour to write this post..

youtube, library work
