Tiny tiny apartments. In Japan, of course, they’re wicked cool.
RIAA Radar, to tell you what music is made by musicians not represented by the loathsome RIAA>. It’s like a “sweatshop-free” label on your music, sort of. Although I’m sure that packaging was made in a sweatshop anyway.
Possible upcoming literary-themed Simpsons episodes. Me, I’m apeshit over the Family Guy these days.
Ol’ Mickey D is apparently angry that its legendarily crappy jobs are now officially recognized as such. Gee, you make awful, unhealthy products, you provide shit jobs for low pay and little hope of advancement (OK first job for a teenager, I guess, maybe, but even so…) and become a popular culture icon, and then complain when your popular culture iconography isn’t completely glowing? Not much sympathy for you, I’m afraid.
Not with so many people weighing 900 pounds or more. What gets me about this is the number of them who died from weight-loss complications. Sure, their weight was a serious, possibly fatal health problem, but what would make doctor prescribe a 500-calorie diet and not expect severe problems?
And since we’re supposed to discuss language and irony here, a rather odd little interview between a guy named Dong Resin and The PATRIOT Act. Not some band, mind you. The law itself. I think this is supposed to be some kind of a joke, but I’m not sure.

Oh, curse you for posting the 900 pound link before I did! I snooze, I lose. How am I going to top that, except by gaining 900 lbs. myself?
