iDouche

  • John: [about Sahand's iPod Touch] Is that a phone, too?
  • Sahand: No, I decided not to go for the phone option.
  • John: Why not?
  • Sahand: Because I didn't want to pay the monthly fee for the phone. This way, it's pay once, douche forever.

Cloud Cult - When Water Comes to Life

And when the angels come
They’ll cut you down the middle
To see if you’re still there
To see if you’re still there

And underneath your ribs
They’ll find a heart-shaped locket
An old photograph
Of you in Daddy’s arms

And then they’ll sew you closed
And give you back to the water
From where we’re all born
From where we’re all born

Not kiwis

  • Jen: Hey, Lily, are these your kiwis?
  • Lily: I...don't think so. I don't think I've bought any kiwis for a long time.
  • Jen: I don't remember buying kiwis, either. [opens bag and peers in at three brown, slightly furry-looking round objects]
  • Lily: How long have those been in there?!
  • Jen: Wait, I think they're limes.

This is a stop-motion film made using city walls and chalk or paint and it is insane. Watch it, seriously.

You’ve gotta be kidding me. That’s amazing.

Google Answers: Ants in a microwave oven »

heather-rivers:

I observed this today and looked it up. Kind of neat.

Now that I think about it, swarms of ants have had a really positive influence on my life:

  • I keep a spotless kitchen, because there’s no other choice
  • They’ve forced me to research the workings of microwaves
  • Roaches, once so repulsive to me, are now almost laughable next to the sinister plague of ants
