PSAs for todays youth on responsible use of technology?  Brilliant.


What I believe is the latest video from OK Go! (the band that brought you the amazing treadmill dance on their video for Here It Goes Again.  Two thoughts on this:

1) How cool is the way that technology enables us (and by “us” I clearly mean “people in general, and not any group containing me specifically”) to make amazing art?  Very cool.

2) These guys really do know how to put a video together.  Or at least give an art director just enough rope to weave together a super sweet rope basket which they then fill with awesome.

It’s weird that this is an actual animal.  Like god made a few shark variants, and then was like “Screw this, this is boring.  What happens if I pound this part down real thin, and then pull on it?  Yeah, that’s just strange enough to keep those bald monkeys on their toes.”
Also - fun fact: Sharks, like a number of other marine creatures (often creepy ones, like the lamprey, or ‘we were clearly just kidding at the time’ ones like the platypus) are biological multimeters, capable of sensing electrical impulses (such as the current induced by the rapid pulse of its preys heart).  So what you’re seeing in this picture is a horrifying sea monster with a sixth sense for hearing the physical manifestation of your terror, and smell/taste receptors which are attuned to the scent of your blood in the water.
MAN I miss scuba diving.

This here’s a photo of my wife, that I like to keep on our refrigerator.  It’s from well before we were married.  Well before, in fact, we were even making out on a regular basis.  You can’t really see it in the picture, but she’s wearing light blue eye shadow.  In general, and in this picture specifically, she is a total fox.
UPDATE: The item I keep on the refrigerator is the picture, not the wife.  Just wanted to make that clear.

I really enjoy eating monochomatically.

That’s so weird, because I recently switched to eating purely monatomically, and I’ve been hating it - I’m so hungry.  Sure it’s fashionable and all, but it’s incredibly difficult to subsist on argon, krypton, xenon, and helium.  Though I will admit the yucks I get after a lunch of helium is almost worth the hunger pangs.

So my wife totally gets me, is really tolerant of my shenanigans, and has a super cute mischevious pixie thing going when she smiles sometimes.  There’s a whole bunch of great stuff in my life, but if all of it went away I’d still be meeting my quota of things to be thankful for, as long as she were still around.

Happy Thanksgiving.
