You know those lists about "You know you're a Redneck when [items]"? I found one for Sri Lankans on Facebook and for my own amusement, I copy/pasted it over here and bolded every one that does apply to me along with a little explanation underneath, but italicized them if they don't apply. It's amusing. I dare you to do the same with a list for your ( Read more... )

This is rather as if you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in - an interesting hole I find myself in - fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the ( Read more... )

The following is basically a snippet from a gchat conversation where I'm trying to explain rugby to Savior.

me: Basically, in rugby, what happens is that it's a bit like soccer and American football together. If you get a touchdown by hitting the ball to the ground, you get points ( Read more... )

Link of the Day: Fox News Finds Out About 4Chan. FEAR THE INTERNET TERRORISTS!

For those of you who don't know the details, that was actually 420chan, not 4Chan, which is apparently quite different but if you Google 4Chan, you'll see exactly how stupid it is. Also, the guy who's talking about his MySpace having been hacked? Was a member, tried to ( Read more... )

Link of the Day: PWNED!Short version of the story is that a guy found out someone had hotlinked to an image on his site, and replaced with a series of photos depicting self-castration. But that's not the cool part. The cool part is that all the positive responses like 'I'd hit that' and 'I just came' remained in place which is fucking hilarious ( Read more... )

Link of the Day: Making Up is Hard to Do.

Fandom/LJ, definitely NC-17. XD

This story went a long way towards restoring my good will for LJ. Fandom is coded as female, LJ as male, and the dialogue in that fic is wonderful. I usually veer away from reccing fics as Links of the Day since LotD is meant to be interesting for anyone that reads my ( Read more... )

Do not clean pierced ears with mint dental floss.I realize that might sound obvious to some of you, but if you're a college student who recently got her ears pierced, thinks one of them is too swollen to use cotton swabs on and really wants to make sure it's clean, you might have the brainwave of using dental floss to try to clean behind the ( Read more... )

mirrored_echo is currently over and the two of us are watching-slash-snarking Troy, which is riddled with historial inaccuracies that are barely compensated for by pretty boys in skirts. Also, I'm spelling Akhilles with the k because I got told ages ago that's how it meant to be spelt, and it kind of stuck with me.

( Would you like some historical accuracy with your whining? )

Britney's bald, blah blah blah. Not the important bit. I was reading Go Fug Yourself, the site that's basically devoted to mocking famous fashion mishaps, and they had this article on Britney's new hairdo.

The part that makes it worth posting about? The first link in their article goes to an entry in ohnotheydidnt.

I am amazed.
