    On cats and unholy stench.
    [info]aoi_tsuki1 had a fun discovery to make.


    "Mike recently showed me Dogma for the first time - pretty good stuff - and when I went to go check the mail this afternoon, I came inside and suddenly realized exactly what the Golgothan shit-demon smelled like. Kaien's ass apparently had become some kind of conduit to another dimension, a place where little shitlings frolic in the shit-meadows, plucking shit-blossoms and singing shit-ditties under the mellow benevolence of their ochre shit-sun; these happy shit-critters occasionally will sense someone in trouble, and are capable of shit-skipping across time and space to share the magic and wonder of vile brown glop on my kitchen floor why God why can't the fucking cat keep his stupid fucking ass positioned inside the fucking shit-box where did I go wrong"

    (QWP and all that and now public!)

    [info]urbankotq reads the Akira manga:
    Judging from our current culture, I don't think a modern-day Tetsuo would smash up the moon.

    I think he would make it his Twitter page.

    It would start with standard messages like "HAIL TO THE GREAT TOKYO EMPIRE," but then he would get bored and start writing whatever was on his mind at the moment:

    "Why haven't we colonized this thing yet?!"

    "Don't take drugs, kids. I went off of them a few weeks ago, and look what I can do now!"

    "Lady Miyako can see the future, but can she see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?"

    "Chairface Chippendale is an amateur."

    "Sorry about the tidal wave."

    "Arm mutating into misshapen pile of organs. Anyone else have this problem?"
    "
    Have A Nice Day"

    And, of course,

    "KANEDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
    Context wants to change the layout to something a little more Mars. Flocked, QWP.

    [info]ursulav has a way of redefining terms like "epiphany":

    So I'm playing Viva Pinata, and Kevin is fooling around on his laptop, and I find myself romancing the adorable walrus pinatas, which I love because walruses are wonderful.

    "Look!" I cried. "Hot walrus action!"


    [...]

    "Oh come on! You can't say that your entire life has not been leading up to the point where someone will make walrus sex noises at you!"

    [...]

    Pulling back from the brink a bit, I considered this. What would I really do with a sketchbook of walrus porn? How would you even be able to tell it was porn, half the time? I've seen walrus sex on National Geographic, and it kind of looks like two lumpy mattresses stacked on a beach. The walrus Kama Sutra could be printed on one page and still have the back free to advertise walrus marital aids.

    "Perhaps not porn," I said.

    Kevin snerked into his laptop.

    "But walruses! In fact--" suddenly it was all clear before me "--they're a duo--Walrus and Radish!"


    [...]

    Walrus and Radish! Best buddies! Do they fight crime? Is it true love? Do they have adventures? Did Radish save Walrus's life once, when they were young and foolish? Did they grow up together, or were they thrown together by circumstance? Does Radish have a dark secret? Does Walrus doodle Walrus + Radish 4ever and draw little hearts around it on the ice? I don't know either!

    Mind you, my budget is usually limited, but if any artists at the upcoming MFF would like to contribute to the saga of Walrus and Radish, I will gladly trade you sketchbook drawings, or prints if you prefer. Because...um....WALRUS AND RADISH!


    Context is now writing the script.

    "Trip. Fall. Trip. Fall."
    [info]ellimayhem has an axe to grind with the inventor of Heely shoes

    I'm generally against waterboarding, but in the case of the inventor of heelies, I'll make an exception.


    Post is locked but getting permission was a roll through the park.
    9:25 am
    [info]actionreplay notices that Ayn Rand's books are only attractive if you're not actually poor.

    Why is it that all the libertarians I meet are rich City types? I'd love to meet a tescos employee who subscribed to Rand's ethos. I bet they all imagine themselves as ubermenschen who don't get enough recognition of their greatness from others....


    Context is not rushing to Amazon for a copy of Atlas Shrugged.

    Sweden, WA
    Over at [info]ontd_political, an article was posted regarding a man who was denied a liver transplant because he used perscription medicinal marijuana, and died soon after.

    [info]worldmage responds:
    I fucking hate this country sometimes.


    To which [info]darthweez replies, citing a quote in the article:
    He had been ...rejected for a transplant at Swedish Medical Center for the same reason


    not just us, bb


    [info]worldmage, however, kindly adds:
    Swedish Medical Center's in Seattle.


    Context is still fuming over drug laws, though. QWP.

    Dear Penthouse Forum:
    I was lead to believe that if I ever ended up in bed with two, smart & sexy women that I would be having wild untold of sex and seeing some hot girl on girl action...but I am not. Instead I am the heater in between two cover hog, snoring and bed-hogging women. Furthermore I will be talking to my lawyer about legal actions.

    No love
    Masteradept


    [info]masteradept is feeling shafted. Or not, as the case may be (qwp).

    Because really, who doesn't want one?
    [info]ursulav is feeling a mite gloomy.

    I'm in a gloomy mood today, which I hadn't really noticed until Kevin pointed it out, since normally the suggestion we move to Kenya would send me off into dreams of keeping pet water buffalo,* and instead I'm contemplating the questionable power grid and the inability to get printer ink.

    And in the footnote:

    *I will name him Bob, and he will name me Squeaky-Thing-Stuck-To-My-Hoof-After-Trampling. We will be great friends.

    Context is packing for Con.

    Sweet, Sweet Orange Chicken
    "I for one, embrace our degenerate Mandarin masters and their sweet, sweet Orange Chicken."-[info]fizzyland in this talk politcs entry.

    Context is Chinese and American economic policy.

    I lol'd.

    Walt Disney and Jennifer Garner
    [info]spuffyduds notices weird phrasing:

    The other day at the library I was shelving a recent People Magazine, and there was an article about Jennifer Garner's post-baby weight loss titled, "How She Got Her Body Back."

    And I thought, well holy SHIT whose body did she HAVE?!?

    Was there a poor bodiless head rolling into a police station on a skateboard, screaming, "Jennifer Garner TOOK MY BODY! I WANT IT BAAAAAAACK! Also, GOD, could somebody brush my teeth for me?"

    And where was Jennifer's body in the meantime? In cold storage somewhere, with Walt Disney's frozen head casting lustful looks at it with its frosted-over eyeballs?



    Context is annoyed about body image ideals. (And also QWP.)

    I love English. It's quirky, it's weird, it's mongrel, it's sweet, it's playful; it's a word-lush consequently lush with vocabulary; it treats its grammar the way kittens would treat slinkies wrapped with balls of yarn and its word construction the way a showy chef treats the pizza dough --- Pummel pummel pummel turn pummel pummel pummel turn get rolling pin spread spread spread pick up disk spin-throw in the air wheeeee! ---I love English.

    Sam's cafe discover confurvatives
    Sam's Cafe discover the existence of [info]confurvatives , and wise advice is offered:

    [info]twirlynoodle : There was altogether too much fundie and not enough furry on there – I mean, any furry is too much, really, but at least throw a bone to ... dang, there's no way out of this one, is there.

    [info]hanuueshe : Word to the wise: don't throw bones to furries.

    Context is relishing human diversity, and [info]copperbadge 's original post is pretty funny too.

    an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of underdone potato...

    @ 2009-11-10 14:48:00

    Does anyone know where I can buy a goose in the Manhattan, or Brooklyn area? I'd prefer Manhattan. I called Whole Foods, but they said they weren't carrying it this year. Thanks for any help given!

    First reply by [info]happycakeoven:

    if you fire your poor employee who is trying to support his disabled son on the meager salary you give him, and then go to sleep, you will be visited by 3 ghosts. after they show you the error of your ways, you'll wake up, and it'll be christmas morning. if you lean out your window, there will be a little boy there. he'll hook you up.


    Context would like some plum pudding.

    lokicarbis on the timing of a job interview just as one is leaving town for two weeks.
    (on [info]reynardo's journal),

    Of all the gods, Irony's clock is the most precise.


    (QWP, horribly accurate)

    x-posted to my LJ...
    From [info]woodwitch's LJ:

    So the other day just out of nowhere he asks me, "So do you do, like, spells and stuff? For real?"

    I didn't look up from my work. "Occasionally. But I won't do one for you, so don't ask."

    "Are you psychic?"

    I smiled. "If you were me you'd know that already."

    He blinked. "What about weird stuff like, can you light candles with your brain?"

    Now I did look up. "No. But I can kill you with my spice rack."




    Context is Wiccapalooza at work. QWP

    rivka's daughter knows her history!
    Me: (noticing the decapitated head of Snow White lying on the dining room table): Oh no, what happened to Snow White?
    Alex: I was taking off her cape and her head came off.
    Me: Poor Snow White!
    Alex: It's okay. I'm having lots of fun with her head, pretending that she's Anne Boleyn and stuff.

    This is the entire post, context is raising a Very Smart Child.
    4:47 pm
    [info]shortpacked discusses the new actionless Battle Armor He-Man:

    [info]sonictail:
    Oh well, I guess the only plus side is that he-man fans are used to taking it up the rear for quite some time now.
    [info]weds:
    Between Ram-Man and Fisto, that's gonna happen.
    By the power of Grayskull, context lacks the power!
    4:20 pm
    z_gryphon is uncomfortable with some people's beliefs.
    I find myself gripped with a mixture of incredulity and dismay whenever I'm presented with evidence that people still believe with apparent sincerity in such almost willfully quaint notions as a wholly non-metaphorical invisible war between the supernatural archetypes of good and evil taking place in the Material World's Corridors of Power. That's a live roleplaying game plot, not something to take seriously at the very heart of one's being in the year 2009.

    Context is not reading The Great Controversy no matter how many free copies it gets.

    A turf war... but is there snapping?
    When you're a Vamp,
    you're a Vamp all the way,
    From your first sip of blood
    to your "Van Helsing" day.

    When you're a Vamp,
    If the sun hits your face
    We just stand there and sparkle
    We're the awesomest race!

    You're never alone,
    You're never disconnected!
    You're home with your own:
    When werewolves are expected,
    You're well protected!

    Then you are set
    With a capital V
    Which you'll never forget
    Until eter-ni-ty
    When you're a Vamp
    You stay a Vamp!

    Context feels pretty and witty and gay.
