Here are the things I dug in this weeks (er sort of…I’m a little behind) news.
1. The new Harry Potter Trailer!!!
3. All sorts of ridiculousness at SFAI recently…
4. Scans from “The Brand Gap” posted by Nubby Twiglet.
5. Tokyo Meet Market…a really neat blog that talks about dating in Japan..its pretty interesting and a lot different than America!
In this week of the weird an wonderful we are going on a magical journey through all that was strange in the recent past, including Garfield, and Ocean’s 11…with Muppets.
1. Garfield Minus Garfield, this site takes a look at the sad life of Jon when Garfield is taken out of the comic. Pretty amusing, in a weird, sad sort of way.
2. “Henson’s 11″, to weird and perfect, whoever made this had way to much time on their hands.
3. We already knew that Japan was a strange place, but take a look at this commercial for bananas…
4. Jack in the Box is notorious for its wacky commercials, especially its commercials that mock other fast food competitors commercials, this one is airing a lot lately and its making fun of the BK commercial about their new mini burgers…its pretty weird and funny.
In this week of the weird in wonderful, we will be exploring children’s TV, Jackson Pollock and more!
1. Its recently come to my attention that the show Dinosaurs that I watched as a child has an entire episode where the characters are clearly taking drugs and its pretty blatantly obvious! Now I can’t tell if this is more hilarious or disturbing, but you can see for yourselves…
2. If you ever wondered how Pollock did it…clearly spaghetti is the answer, learn how to paint like Pollock! See kids, anyone can make art! Hurrary!
3. This site is along the lines of LOLcat, except er…with babies, entitled “Why The F Did You Have A Kid“, once again another fine line between funny and just plain disturbed.
4. Why the heck is Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys playing with Rush??? Well I don’t know, quite weird! Though secretly I really like this song.
5. Manbabies..well I think this one probably speaks for itself.
Well okay, so weekly digs and things I love are awfully similar, but weekly digs focuses more on news articles, and well… I don’t care, here is some great stuff in this weeks news.
1.
2. 50 Beautiful Long Exposure Pictures.
3. 1000 year human life span? Pretty crazy.
4. Little known but useful HTML tags.
5. 30 Photoshop video tutorials.

1. Cards that make noise! (My mom and dad are the best! Thanks for sending me such a cute and strange card).

3. Fitti found toilettes sitting out in the Tenderloin…you can read his post he’s pretty funny.
4. A woman purposely had octuplets…the whole thing is more than just a bit screwy if you ask me. And apparently people think she’s obsessed with Angelina Jolie?

7. I almost feel bad for this poor sorority girl, but its just so hilarious, she’s obviously drunk and seems to think that by pulling the smoke alarm she can make it snow…yup.
