At the bottom of my underwear & sock drawer lies two pairs of boxers of marginal utility, ones whose use/comfort profiles relegate them to status of Boxers Of Last Resort. That is to say, I press them into service if, and only if, all other options have been exhausted. My fellow boxer wearers are likely [...]

Even More Literalist Fun

We’ve done this before. Take a song, take a video, flip it around, make the lyrics fit the video and — bam! — hilarity ensues. Or, at least, hopefully so. Red Hot Chilli Literalists: The new lyrics to “Birdhouse in Your Soul” might actually make more sense than the original ones: Heh.

Hey, It’s The Golden Gi…EAAAUUUGHH!

Easily the best thing since the Basement Jaxx’s Where’s Your Head At? (Via Real Life.)

The Curious Case Of Benjamin Gump. Errr, Forrest Button. Benrest Gumton? Foramin Bump?

Via Hot Air, we have this delightful skewering of the now-odds-on-favorite for Best Picture Oscar: Booo. Funny or Die removed the video — likely due to copyright claim[s]. Shazbot. -ed. Heh. It is to laugh.

  published on Feb 4th, 2013 in Linux, Macintosh, Open Source Software
  I had a mini-discussion with Neil Stevens about the genesis of my Mac use, sparked by the news that GNOME is moving to JavaScript as its primary development language. I used to be a strict Linux-only user and tended to look down on Macs as mere playthings. I’ll let the Tweets tell the rest of [...]
