sporadicitylessness

as you may have noticed, i have trouble maintaining a steady pace of posting here. i've heard that some sites pre-plan their posts and let the site automatically publish them at some set time. i'm going to try that too (and admit it up front).

the following series was collected (and occasionally slightly edited) from imao's "wisdom of the day" series, which they in turn collected from twitter. done without explicit permission, but judging from past experience i think that everyone's cool with it - especially because they're linked and attributed.

enjoy!

does anybody remember laughter?

graphic humor ahead:

phones
clocks
movies
and a graph

insta-roundup

cause you probably missed seeing them on that obscure little site :)

the wind dies down
i'm no greenie, but i do applaud *real* efforts to try energy sources that do not burn irreplaceable resources.

filing false reports is a crime
but what else do you expect from a mob of baby-killers?

it will happen
we just don't know when or where.

it's worse
flyers can't have shampoo.

a meme via dustbury:

Go into your archives and post the first sentence from the first post you made each month last year.

I'm going to cheat a wee bit because some of mine are just links to someone else's quote:

jan: "Simply stated, if we are to believe the Islamic scripture’s portrayal of this “prophet,” Muhammad was the most repulsive, and thus the least qualified, divine messenger in human history."

feb: You mean there's someone else out there who has to deal with unfair complaints from co-workers?

mar: why are we supposed to care more about lindsay lohan's and charlies sheen's... misadventures... than about the problems of some guy that lives downtown in an abandoned entryway behind a bus stop?

apr: i have now personally seen chiropractors who believe in their profession at five levels.

may: sony's database was hacked, again.

jun: "Saying that man didn’t land on the moon, that Bush caused 9/11, or that Obama knows what he’s doing aren’t simply other opinions — they’re false and destructive ideas, and the people who cling to them border on mental illness."

jul: john lennon, republican?!?

aug: Q: What's green and looks like an iguana?

sep: now that the freedom tower is nearing completion, maybe we can begin some foundation restoration

oct: "If in 2004 5.7% unemployment was supposed to mark a “jobless recovery,” what exactly is 9.1% called?"

nov: Ann Coulter via Instapundit didn't go far enough...

dec: i never would have known to avoid the burzynski clinic if it weren't for their threats...

the slow down

entropy? inertia? some other fancy word for laziness?

i haven't forgotten this blog, i just don't have much to say at the moment (without excessive whining).

...so just watch this strangely-relevant rerun in the meantime.

old years resolutions

no i'm not making any this year - not even silly ones like i've posted before. so here's a pic of (allegedly) woody guthrie's resolutions for some year long past.

another special time

Wikihistory by Desmond Warzel

scifi poster art

star wars & firefly

"lol-art"

i suggest that title for this site (which dustbury may or may not have been asking for here)


edit: although, that site may be one of the reasons for the commandment against making graven images :/

"chakra, not sutra"

is this the soundtrack to a bollywood spy movie?

map projections

i only know two people who would laugh at this, and i'm one of them. anyone else out there get it?

just in time for valent... er, halloween?

some guys really know how to wooo a lady...

singing in the rain

i don't like musicals, but a few hours ago i really understood this bit

now that's sad

one of the few people who looks far better than their online avatar/banner illustration is having trouble finding and/or sorting eggs...
