sholio: Peggy Carter smiling (Avengers-Peggy smile)
If you need a laugh or a distraction, you may wish to experience the fake book covers at Paperback Paradise.

I stumbled across it today and it ended up sucking down a big chunk of the afternoon. I haven't giggled that much in ages.

(They also absolutely nail the typography.)

Definitely NSFW and jokes about everything from bodily functions to incest, so ymmv.

sholio: Neal from White Collar smiling (WhiteCollar-Neal grin)
*gigglefit* I don't know how many of you have seen this, but it's certainly new to me - White Collar parody, in which the FBI teams up with Santa to solve crimes:

ETA: Link on Vimeo for those who can't view it on Youtube - http://vimeo.com/54707607


And this is just sweet - an adoption PSA with the White Collar cast. (The kid at the end is Willie Garson's real-life son, who is adopted.)

I've seen some really WTF book covers (1970s sci-fi is especially prone to it), and quite a few that seemed to have only the most passing relationship to the book's contents, but I am pretty sure this VERY NOT WORK-SAFE cover of The Princess Bride is the most bizarre, hilarious mismatch of book contents to book cover that I have ever seen.

If I need brain-bleach, so do you!

Not worksafe! Quite porny, in fact! Did I mention this is an actual cover? Of the actual book? Someone was clearly dropping a lot of acid at Ballantine Books in the 1970s. Either that, or my edition of The Princess Bride somehow left out the tentacle rape, skulls, snakes and inappropriate religious imagery. Also I never really imagined Buttercup looking that much like Cher.
sholio: Highlander quote: "What were you thinking?" "I wasn't thinking, I was IMPROVISING." (Highlander-wasn't thinking)
So apparently William Shatner has a new album and a music video out.

I know what you're thinking: "I must run and watch this immediately!"

Yes. Yes you should.

A bunch of singing constellations and William Shatner's disembodied face perform Bohemian Rhapsody )

As far as I'm concerned, this video completely blows away what was up until this point the trippiest, most utterly WTF professional music video I'd ever seen, which was David Hasselhoff's rendition of "Hooked on a Feeling". Since I hadn't seen that one in awhile, I had to go looking for it on Youtube -- it's always good for a laugh -- and because I'm a generous person, I decided to share. :D

You're welcome.

I had to link to today's Get Fuzzy because it made me laugh so hard -- this is so totally our dog and cat! Lucky and the cat often wrestle, except the cat is so tiny compared to Lucky that the most he can do is wrap his front legs around Lucky's head, and I often get the impression that he is way, way more serious about it than the dog, except he's never caught on that his claws don't penetrate the dog's fur. I'll look over at them wrestle-fighting, and Lucky is all "durrrr, this is so fun, I LUV YOU LITTLE PLAYFRIEND *tailwag*" and the cat's all, "DIE DIE DAMN YOU WHY WON'T YOU DIE AAARGH". *g*
