You know when grown-ups tell you everything's going to be fine, and you think they're probably lying to make you feel better?
Yes.
Everything's going to be fine.

The Unbearable Ersatzness of Ritzing

Iowahawk really nails it this time. Read read!

Paging Theseus

Would Theseus come to the white courtesy phone please?

"It is ingrained in the Korean psyche that China is the big brother," said Samuel Koo, president of Arirang TV, South Korea's English-language broadcaster. "But Chinese-Korean relations were far from being an unmitigated love affair. We used to ship to them tens of thousands of virgins every year."

Just remember to raise the white sails this time.

(From that font of all wisdom, the New York Times.)

I Have A Chair

It tilts. It swivels. It has tension adjustment for the tilt thingy. It has gas-operated lift, just like a rocket-hamster fed on beans. It's upholstered with elegant black leather. It has armrests where I can rest my arms. It has little wheels, too, five of them!

And I put it together myself!

The Spongmonkeys Get An A

Those of you familiar with Joel Veitch's rathergood.com (home to the Viking Kittens and Spode Blode and the Giant Bee) would immediately have recognised the critters in the Quizno's Subs ad as these guys.

They're called spongmonkeys.

I don't know why.

But Ad Report Card on Slate gives them an A.

(My favourite is still the kittens singing Independent Women. "If Destiny's Child were kittens from Northern England, this is what they would sound like.")

(Thanks to Crossbow on the JREF Forums.)

(Oh, and the Wrong Bananas song is good too.)

(Update: Blode and the Giant Bee. Well, it only took me six months to fix that.)
