Glamourpuss

permalink

Julie Jackson, the founder of Subversive Cross Stitch, started putting wigs on her cat as a way to relieve stress and to make the cat do something instead of just laying around all day. Now it's evolved—or devolved, however you want to look at it—into a book, Glamourpuss, being published on Oct 1.

I Can Has Cheezburger: The MusicLOL

permalink

If you ever start to despair and think that modern-day life is a cultural dearth of reality TV and celebrity gossip, you need only think of one thing to remind yourself that all is not lost: I Can Has Cheezburger: The MusicLOL. Yes, that's right: A musical inspired by I Can Has Cheezburger and LOLcats. Catch it at this year's Fringe Festival. Tickets will go faster than a cheeseburger in a room full of noming cats. Or something like that.

One Post Wonder

permalink

I Hate Mike. I Love Tom. About Me. I Love Robert. Tell It Like It Is. Mosaic of Subcultures. What do all of these have in common, you ask? They're all blogs that, despite the best intentions and grandest of dreams, only have one post. And they're all collected at One Post Wonder: Amazing Blogs That Have One Post. You'll probably laugh your ass off, then hurry to update/delete your own blog, lest it ever end up here.

Specific Things

permalink

From "Teams Called the Pirates" to "Young Women Holding Koalas" and "Dogpiles," Specific Things compiles narrow-scope galleries of photos or, as in the case of "Bands looking for singers," notes and classified ads. It's amazing how much funnier a category is when you never even knew it existed.

Quinny by Henrik Vibskov

permalink

Quinny by Henrik Vibskov could be just another excuse for painfully-hip parents to outfit their wee ones in expensive designer clothes. Vibskov would never be that boring, though, and instead he has given parents an excuse to put their kids in penguin suits and laugh and laugh and laugh. Penguin suits for all!

Delusional Downtown Divas

permalink

Oona, Swann and AgNess are three girls trying to make it in the art world—without actually having to make any art. Laugh until you realize you know some people just like them, then become kinda uncomfortable.

If it were a less-annoying actress, it might be sad. As it's Brittany Murphy, we've already watched the trailer four times.

"Oh, I get it, Kangaroo. You're just hanging out, right? I bet if I asked you what you were doing, you would probably say you were "chillaxin'" or something. You probably think you look pretty cool, but I know better, Kangaroo, because YOU ARE AS A HIGH AS A KITE RIGHT NOW."
