Muppets with People Eyes
thanks to lady tarkington for this one. the name pretty much says it all. as for the pictures themselves, i believe they more or less say "creepy" but i'll let you be the judge.

A Mixmas Bonus Track!!!
we had a white elephant exchange at our office christmas party last night and one of the amazing gifts i included in my contribution was rupaul's best-selling christmas album for 10 years in a row* "ho ho ho." now i know what you're thinking "omg, anthony!! didn't you have to spend like, at least $80,000 for something as amazing as that?!" and yes, even tho $80,000 would have been well over the $20 price limit for the gift exchange, i thought what the hell and bought it anyways not caring how much it would cost.** SO, in celebration of such an amazing find, i'm supplying you with one more song to add to your mixmas list for this year: Rupaul the Red-Nosed Drag Queen.
*citation needed
**it cost $2.50

miXmas Tumblr: 2010???
keeping with the holiday theme, here's a link to a music tumblr that some dude has been posting to once a year. each year he makes a pretty nifty wintery mix and i'm hoping he gets a 2010 version up in the near future. check out his old mixes tho and download yourself some free music if you already don't own these little gems.
Bunny Friday!!
well my christmas tree is officially up and lit and just needs to be decorated so it's officially the start of the holiday season for me. that said, what better way to celebrate than with a little ball of fluff santa bun!!!

Nowhere Near Here
dude, this video by pahnl whatnow is SO GOOD. the song rocks and the animation is adorable and painfully labor intensive. be sure to read artist's statement below as well.
Nowhere Near Here from Pahnl Whatnow on Vimeo.
'Nowhere Near Here' is a stop motion animation that uses a combination of light with stencils and long exposure photography to tell the story of a dog running around the city at night, doing whatever a dog does. The animation was first exhibited at the The Herbert, in Coventry, on the 7th October 2010.
With well over 300 hours in the making, more than 200 stencils involved and too many cold nights spent outside on my knees getting the shots, I am very happy (and relieved) to finally share this with you. Through the course of shooting 'Nowhere Near Here', I have dealt with curious drunks, a dog almost peeing on the camera (the irony is not lost on me, haha), the endlessly suspicious police and even someone nearly running off with a tripod.
This is street art, this is life and thank you for watching.
...for those of you that may be interested in prints, a selection of film stills from 'Nowhere Near Here' are currently available at pahnl.co.uk/store.php

30 Celebrities (if they were fat)
a few years ago there was a site called "planet hiltron" and it took photos of celebs and made them fat. the site has since died but the novelty still lives on. manofest highlighted some of those old photos along with some fresh blood.
also, now we know making justin bieber fat officially turns him into rosie o'donnell.

SNEAKER UPDATE!!
the longer i work for adidas the more i find myself becoming a sneaker head on top of already being your average run of the mill shoe whore. that said, today is momentous as it marks the day i've become the proud owner of not one, but two pairs of adi roundhouse mids. just scored the indigo/orange ones today and they're going to become besties with the grey/aqua ones i already own. the only shitty part about these shoes is that hip-hop moves are not included in the box...
Bunny Friday!!
oh man, it's been a busy week which explains my lack of consistent posting. sorry kiddies but i promise i'll make it up to you this weekend. appropriately enough, this bun pretty much sums up what i'm going to be doing to de-stress from this week.

OK, One More Muppet Post...
this is actually shopped and not a muppets original. although the use of red and mokey fraggle as ann-margret and sophia loren is brilliant.

Sarah Palin's Alaska
oh my lovelies out there in the blog-o-nets... for those of you who haven't had the pleasure of experiencing this little gem of what's to come, allow me to help. sarah palin and the down to earth wholesome folks over at TLC have decided to treat us to what could be the most spectacular show in the history of forever and the universe (which goes back, what, about 5000 years, right??). get ready to marvel at the beauty of alaska and fall in love with your country all over again as alaska's sexiest milf fires off a barrage of simple minded altruisms. if you feel like sacrificing a few unneeded brain cells (you've got billions, you can do it) head on over and experience the 30 second tv spot that is so brilliant it jettisons itself out of the world of commercial advertisement and into the stratosphere of fine art because of it's blatant and forthright self awareness. for those who don't wish to experience the spot in all its glory, or for those who simply want to cherish every last word so they can hang onto it reflect upon it forever and ever, i bring you, verbatim, the' unedited final script:
Narrator: Sarah, you ready?!
Sarah: Oh Gawsh!!
(inspiring montage)
Sarah: We are somewhere that, ughhhhh, people dream about!
(inspiring montage)
Sarah: Family comes first. It's just gotta be that way.
(inspiring montage)
Sarah: This is flippin' fun!!
(inspiring montage)
Sarah: How come we can't ever just be satisfied with tranquility?!
(inspiring montage)
Sarah: I'd rather be doin this than sittin' in some stuffy old political office!
(inspiring montage)
Sarah: I'd rather be out here bein' free
End scene. Allow tear of pride to escape and gently slide down cheek.
golly gee, sarah... why CAN'T we ever just be satisfied with tranquility?!?!

Awesome Engrish Shirt Double Fake Out!!
i normally wouldn't post anything engrish but this one came off of a japanese t-shirt site that i'm convinced is an intentional stab at engrish. every other shirt was totally normal (for japanese standards anyways) and then BAMM!!! this wild card is just thrown into the mix. kudos japan. you truly are smarter than everyone else.
Animated Albums
unfortunately i'm not super tech savvy enough to figure out how to link to these gifs but trust me when i say this is a cool site and you should visit it. it's called animated albums and it's a rad tumblr that does exactly what the name implies. check it out!!
