Attention all UHF Fans

I just wanted you all to know that I have crossed an item off my life's to-do list: I have just consumed my first Twinkie Wiener Sandwich (and, actually, my second as well), replete with hot dog, Twinkie, and spray cheese.

Review: OK. Not great, but not terrible. The tastes don't really mesh, so they're just kind of rolling around in your mouth together. And the Twinkie taste kind of dominates... I used more spray cheese in the second one to try to counteract this, but the Twinkie was still by far the most powerful taste. Really interesting texture though. Overall, I have no regrets, although I'll probably be eating the rest of the ingredients separately, since I think in this case I'd prefer each of the parts to the combination of all three.

Just thought you all should know... and for Dani... you know, it's just too much to explain. Chalk it up to one of those wacky pop culture references the others of us all know for no particularly good reason, and my propensity to abuse my digestive system.

PS, I tried to get an image of a Twinkie Wiener Sandwich to accompany this post, but Google Image Search failed me... sigh.

mmm...alan rickman...

yes, he was probably a fair bit hotter a decade or two ago, but even as a potentially evil, stringy-haired potions professor he's awfully attractive.

plus this is just funny:

who's happy to be done with grad school?

ooh

ooh

pick me

but seriously, have we seen this?


I'm highly amused, and also a little sad for those of us who are/may be pursuing a phd...but these comics are funny because they're *exaggerations* of reality, no?

edit: apologies for the wonkiness of the picture in the first version of this post -- I did some photoshopping and hopefully the text is actually readable now. if not...might I suggest sucking it?

I wandered lonely as a cloud, y0.

Hey Erica, how come your New Haven promotional video didn't look like this?

Also, a good story about copyright, fair use, and Green Eggs and Ham, from Salon. (Sadly, no reference to fruvous, though.)

Finally, who wants to see Buster Bluth in a Switchfoot video? Well, not me, really, but it turned out surprisingly well.

more OK Go-related awesomeness

I heard a passing reference to this online

but was underwhelmed, so when this



came up as a "related" video, I thought I'd check it out.

my faith in today's youth has been (mostly) restored. but how on earth did they get the gym teacher to let them rearrange the treadmills?

this is fairly amusing, too

it doesn't beat a hilarious almost-war, but it's still worth checking out...

only in europe

I am highly amused.

swiss accidentally almost start itty-bitty war

...what?

"the mathematics of love" was stuck in my head and it made me happy, so I thought I'd share the happy, but I couldn't find it on youtube and had to settle for this instead. meh. it's almost as good.





update: OMG. I LOVED THIS SONG. I STILL DO.
