it’s my dick in a box

Another case of unfortunate logo design, but what exactly do you think is in the Storage Deluxe box?

4 chords of awesome

I am the least musically inclined person you’ve ever met, but even I can understand this insanity. Mostly unknown in the US, Australian music comedy act Axis of Awesome is about to be very, very big because of this. Watch 4 Chord Song right now. I am utterly blown away. [via laughingsquid.]

majorca and the volcano

For any of you that are my Facebook friends, you’ll know that I left for Majorca on Tuesday night. My plan is to stay here with friends for about a month. Mostly I’ll be still working remotely, but I’ll be taking some official leave to go to the Feria Festival in Seville from April 20 [...]

tiger’s comeback

Look, I’m not condoning Tiger’s extra-marital activities, but the guy is a fucking brilliant golfer. He’s not a role model, but he is manufactured to be one. Advertising money fuels his reputation so don’t lose sight of the reality. He is superhuman on the golf course, and very, very human off of it. With that [...]

What 2 feet of snow looks like in NYC

Sorry I don’t have attribution for this photo, but I received it this morning in an email. This is what a foot and a half of snow looks like on my terrace, as taken by Jose’s Blackberry: And this is what 2 feet of snow on the sidewalk looks like: [thanks to cj and jose.]

Ok Go, again

Ok Go is a band that just keeps hitting video homeruns. Everything they do is stunningly original, patiently created, and wildly internet-viral-friendly. They are simply the definition of the future of music. That, by the way, has nothing to do with whether or not you like their music. Frankly, I can take or leave a [...]

KE$HA + Star Wars = nerd delight

Here’s a delicious nerdy delight for this afternoon. A few filmmaking nerds made a brilliant mashup video for KE$HA’s Tik Toc using Star Wars costumes, a great sense of humor, and no shame. The result is sure to make Eddie King and Tyler Marshall internets-famous. [via capree.]

The Sandpit

The Sandpit is an amazing short film of NYC created using time-lapsed, tilt-shifted photos, by filmmaker Sam O’Hare. The effect is a brilliant miniature perspective of my favorite city. It is magical to watch. [via hind and others.]
