Scott Simpson as "Princess Dad"

Sun, 21 Feb 2010 01:15:48 -0500

"Come here, Princess Dad."
"I'm not 'Princess' Dad, I'm King Dad!"
"No, you're Princess Dad. Now wipe my butt."
"OK."

“I love the unreliable narrator, but the slight twist where the narrator is horrible and doesn’t get what the problem is. I think we’re all like that, ultimately. We’re all hurting people without knowing it. Often what we’re doing seems totally reasonable in our own head. And to someone else with a different perspective, we look like monsters.”

- Jonathan Coulton, Singer-Songwriter, on The Sound of Young America (via hellonewworld)

Without Twitter, this kind of conversation just wouldn’t exist.

Can you imagine what the world would have been like if Einstein and Shakespeare had been able to communicate with each other like this?

Also: never eat a sandwich at Bill’s house.

Ep. 7 - A Visit From @lonelysandwich

The podcast has its first guest, in the form of Adam Lisagor of Twitter (@lonelysandwich) and the popular podcast “You Look Nice Today.” Then Diana and Katai completely screw it up by losing the first hour to audio problems. Yay!

“He’s the hardest working man in beating. If one of his bats missed a swing, he’d fine them a $100. He’s a sex machine … who also beats. He’s the Godfather of Beating. … Do you think that announcer guy came in before he beat his wives and introduced him: ‘Ladies and Gentlemen, the hardest working man in beating, Mr. Please, Please, Please Don’t Beat Me, Beater #1, Don’t Give Me Some More … Let a man Get Up … And Beat His Wife. Papa’s Got A Brand New Beating. It’s a Man’s World … To Beat His Wife In.’ I don’t know if you guys have heard the original recording of James Brown beating his wife at the Apollo, but … if you can get that in vinyl. Gotta get that in mono…”

Scott by Merlin

Few of us will ever have a photo taken that is nearly as cool as this one of Scott Simpson. If it’s not on the dust jacket of his first four books, he makes bad choices in life. (If it’s still on his fifth, geez, time to move on and stop trying to relive your glory days.)

“Bird on a Sandwich” by JasPer

Because Quasi-official YLNT (Brown-belt) Archivist Jason Permenter listened in on our latest episode Angry Captain, he knows of my sweet tooth for Goldie Hawn and took it upon himself to track down this hastily-fabricated Dutch version of the movie on DVD, in which I play the role of Rick Jarmin and his streetwise sidekick, Mel Gibson’s Hair.

Hij is de droom voor elke vrouw. Voor haar is hij een nachtmerrie.

(From the Dutch: He is the dream for every woman. For her it is a nightmare and a falsehood, like the Holocaust. What? Nothing.)
