The Blob

Word of the Day

The new Word of the Day is Pomosexual. I find it quite bizarre that they need a label to announce that they reject labels, but hey.

“Robert Mugabe should just declare war on Iran, the west would rush in with aid and support and Mossad would bump off Morgan Tsvangirai for him.”

Not that I want to come across as a nutter that keeps going on about the Zionist Conspiracy. But I did lol.

William’s Syndrome

A genetic abnormality which makes you look like an elf and be more friendly now makes you less racist as well. How lovely.

Rabbit à la Berlin

It’s about the rabbits who lived between the fences of the Berlin Wall. I have to see this.

These Are My Twisted Words

Radiohead put this song out for free download last year, it’s a wonderful track. When the new album (which, if Thom is pissed off enough about the Copenhagen conference, will be back to the epic and terrifying Kid A style I adore) comes out, I hope this beauty isn’t forgotten.

It’s still there, download it. That is all.

Pink News

Furby — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 19:12:47 +0000

I have come to realise that Pink News has become my Daily Mail. Like people read the Mail because they know it’s going to be full of stories that will piss them off, like immigrants getting money or the existence of paedophiles or something, I read Pink News because it will always be full of homophobia and idiocy, like the General who thought letting gays in the Dutch Army contributed to a massacre, or the school in America which cancelled it’s prom because a girl wanted to bring her girlfriend, and the law was going to make them.

I used to slag off the Mail by calling it “Outrage Porn”- now I have to ask if me reading Pink News is much better?

Learn Something New Every Day

Furby — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 00:18:17 +0000

My friend has started a blog with the novel idea of giving you a new fact every day. It’s just starting up, but she has actually managed to post something on it every day… I humbly link.

SCP Foundation

Furby — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 01:04:01 +0000

One of the gems that emerged from the impersonal, masochist orgy which is 4Chan, the SCP Foundation is like a good version of Torchwood. It’s Wiki based (fitting for it’s origins), but the content is so good you wouldn’t think it. The FOundation is an international secretive organisation which controls paranormal artefacts. Whether you want fantasy, sci-fi or just surrealism it’s all there. It can get very very dark at times, the one sticking in my mind being SCP-231 (it didn’t help that I was reading House of Leaves at the time, a pretty creepy book).

But many of the articles are whimsical, like the coffee machine which will dispense anything.It’s great that many of the entries link to each other, creating an over all narrative.

Don’t go there when you have something to do- you won’t be off for a while.

And drink driving.

It doesn’t get funnier then that.
