Rick Astley did the Never Gonna Give You Up/Smells Like Teen Spirit mashup LIVE with the Foo Fighters. I am happy about this.
Ok, correction, they didn’t preform the mash-up
How does one preform a mash-up?
Perform in a way that mimics the mashup?
Read my question again.
Ah. Well that was worth it.
Scones should have the jam on first, with the cream on top. They’re perfectly tasty the other way, but that’s the proper way to have it.
I kinda sorta think Tori Amos looked better as a brunette.
Next week is the last week of my current job.
It’s been a bit difficult saying goodbye to so many fantastic volunteers and co-workers.
I had a job interview today. It didn’t go well. Very theatrically staged.
I was ushered into a room which looked very much like my old lab and I had to write a submission of ideas, timed.
I was then taken into a room with a very tall ceiling and a huge conference table. There were three middle aged bearded men interviewing a middle aged bearded man for a job on a equalities council.
I wouldn’t have been impressed with myself, I got a bit tense and stuttered and my brain froze up a bit but it was an experience. The annoying thing is I turned down a film audition (minor part nothing fancy) to have this job interview.
I logged on to my email and was greeted by two more rejection notices. It take many hours to fill these in. Nobody accepts CVs (resumes for my American pals) so you have to manually enter the data over and over. So to get a cut and paste generic rejection email is very dispiriting.
Something will probably turn up. “Keep Buggering On” is possibly my motto but it would be nice if it was easy for a while.
A stupid commercial made me laugh harder than anything on TV has in years. It opened with a classroom full of young children pledging allegiance to the American flag, and a lady commenting that there is no more precious sound. Somehow this was advertising a funeral home.

Gallows humour is the best humour.
If I’m interpreting it correctly, then that’s dark.
You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

Mom, apple pie, and embalming fluid?
Where were you in '77?
There are currently commercials for-
trucks with a Hives song (Hate To Say I Told You So)
credit cards with a Devo song (Uncontrollable Urge) and
beer with a Cramps song (You Got Good Taste).
I love it, but it’s like I’m in the Twilight Zone…
The ad wasn’t even trying to be funny, I have no idea what it was going for, but man was it good. Better, even, than car dealerships whose owners poorly greenscreen themselves into stock backgrounds and add whatever cheap CG elements they could grab online.

Is this masterpiece on youtube?

Unfortunately, no. I don’t think the people behind any of the cheap, dumb ads that play on the local channels here ever upload their work online.

Saw a huge flash in the sky around 10:50 pacific time this evening. Scared the crap out of me and no idea what it could have been.

Sounds like summer lighting. First time I saw it I thought they had dropped the bomb.
I really hate when people say “To Be Honest…”. It’s such a waste of time and words and, to me, it always makes the speaker sound foolish.
And I won’t get started on the acronym “TBH” and how it’s used incorrectly almost 100% of the times it’s used.
Yellow Magic Orchestra is absolutely amazing and I don’t know how they’ve eluded me until today.

Hehe, I have a can of Duff in my fridge. Not real of course, but it amuses me.

I suppose, as I saw that sort of thing living on the East coast as a kid. Saw even stranger things after a violent storm back then too. It would be a pretty rare phenomenon out here. I checked the weather radar and there was no storm activity anywhere in Southern California last night as far as I can tell.

and i have a bottle of duff on my shelf above my computer. it was real, i drank it. (a friend brought it back from Chile for me, they don’t worry about US trademarks overseas)
Mine is a slightly oversized can. It was originally a package for something else I got as a gift. The whole top comes off. The nutritional information box on the side is hilarious.
Someday I should photograph my buddy Jaxxon pretending to drink it.
