Still capped! Woe. Always the internet explodes when this happens.1

Some highlights:

1. T.S. Eliot's The Wasteland in lolcat and limerick (thanks copperbadge & amber2)

COMPARE

In April one seldom feels cheerful;
Dry stones, sun and dust make me fearful;
Clairvoyantes distress me,
Commuters depress me--
Met Stetson and gave him an earful.

VS.

april hates u, makes lilacs, u no can has. (1)
april in ur memoriez, making ur desire.
spring rain in ur dull rootzes.

earth in ur winter, covered in snow
can has potato. PO-TA-TO.
INVISIBLE SUMMER! RAININGZES!
im in ur hofgarden, drinking ur coffeez.

2. Seek.com posted an advertisement for a private detective. No, seriously:

To facilitate growth, CAISS is seeking contract surveillance operatives for an immediate start. A varied workload is on offer including surveillance surveys, personal injury investigations, witness/subject location & enquiries, general insurance & corporate matters and process serving activities.

You must have proven physical surveillance experience and an exposure to the general insurance industry is preferable. You must be a trustworthy operator, have determination to obtain positive outcomes and possess quality communication skills.

Alliterative names a plus...?

3. I have been a busy little twit!

3a. Warren Ellis: Swine flu reaches Australia: Australians unsure how to deal with something they can't fuck, drink, deport or barbecue.
Me: ...can we run over it?
Me: I would also settle for hitting it with a cricket bat. Do you know where I can get a microscopic cricket bat?

3.a.i Also this.

3b. Some random writer added me. He's pretty cool although he does tend to spam links to stories on his website, one of which I finally got round to reading today - it's pretty awesome!

3c."RT @ thesneeze Hey, I'm glad to see @ MEBIGFOOT is back. He says he took a nap and accidentally hibernated." <-this happens to me all the time!

3d. In other Warren Ellis related news me and a random from Whitechapel had a twittersation3 about illegally parked Death Stars... I think.

4. Speaking of Death Stars, 6 Most Depressing Happy Endings In Movie History.

5. There is nothing about this that is not awesome. Via tryx

1 Also my yid-factor apparently skyrockets.
2 i.e. bentley oh dear why doesn't livejournal have site-specific username code? I have had this feature for like a week and it is already essential and I want to magically insert it into lj-code!!
3 Oh god the twitterlexicalization meme got me! Argh! Must... refrain... from... adding... syllable... "tweet"... to... EVERYTHIIIIING!!!
