I love fark

I love fark, although that probably goes without saying. I’m sure you’ve noticed I’m easily amused. (I’m still laughing about last week’s Onion headline, Shirtless Biden Washes Trans Am In White House Driveway).

Anyway, I saw this on fark and it made me laugh:

Police arrests at Springsteen concert include 30 for underage drinking. In other news, at least 30 people under age 50 attended last night’s Springsteen concert.

The actual article they’re linking to is here. I don’t think it’s particularly interesting.

HP Lovecraft as a Whitman's Sampler Copywriter

I tweeted this yesterday. It’s still making me laugh. From McSweeney’s, “Selections from HP Lovecraft’s Brief Tenure as a Whitman’s Sampler Copywriter.” I can’t even pick a favorite, although I’m especially partial to this one:

Toffee Nugget

Few men dare ask the question “What is toffee, exactly?” All those who have investigated this substance are now either dead or insane.

Speaking of Lovecraft, we recently watched the silent film, The Call of Cthulu. It’s quite entertaining.

Brawndo: The Thirst Mutilator

I need to buy new kitchen appliances today. I picked them out a long time ago, I just need to do that unpleasant part where you give away your money. So, instead of procuring a working oven I’m watching stupid things on the Internets that make me laugh. Things like this commercial for Brawndo, the energy drink from Mike Judge’s otherwise problematic film Idiocracy:


I am not a responsible adult.

Incidentally, I’m not endorsing actually consuming Brawndo, even if they were serving it at BaconCamp last week. I just think the campaign is funny.
