Hey! According to JKR’s website, today (the 22nd) is Percy’s birthday! Hah, I can’t wait until the PINE-ers launch their “Let’s figure out this date’s astrological and historical significance!” initiative when the news spreads across the web in the morning. I may have to join them. :D Bwahaha, gotta love rabid Percy fans!
Kell linked to this Latin translation of “Baby Got Back.” I am unable to breathe.
Happy Birthday to the devastatingly attractive James Marsters! 42 today!
Jerome Moo has given the world the best Umbridge ever. I am traumatized for life. *goes off in search of more of his stuff*
Hee, these are cute. PSAs for Voting Registration, directed by Kevin Smith! Hurrah! And for those of you not registered to vote yet, get your booties in gear and register while you’re there! And for any of my friends who are American citizens over the age of 18 and not registered to vote? We are not brothers.
From an interview with Joss Whedon:
“The reason I feel strongly about doing a sequel is [when] you make a movie, there are so many things, especially because it was based on a series that was supposed to run for so long—there are so many things that you want to do that you’re unable to do or discover in the process that you want to explore, the most important of which is that Adam Baldwin really wants to wear a kilt.”
…I just went to a very happy mental place right now. I’d never considered it before and I don’t want to see it written into the script for the fangirls’ sake, but gravy, he would look really, really good in a kilt.
Ah, Joss. Shirtless Simon, nekkid Spike… You have no shame, and we love you for it.
Mmm, shirtless Simon.
Woo! A snippet from the next Discworld book, Going Postal! September 28th, kids!
Dude, how did I not know this community existed? Harry Potter fanart in the style of and/or mocking famous works throughout art history? Someone is a genius. Maybe when I finish the CG on the Olympia!Bellatrix collab with Mon I’ll have to post it there. XD
Holy cow! While running errands, I stopped by my local comics store to see if they had a manga Mon recommended to me. They didn’t have it, but they did have a bunch of Gaiman stuff I hadn’t seen before, much to my delight. I spent some time poring over the graphic novels, trying to decide which ones were most worthy, and I chatted briefly with the clerk. When he went to ring up my purchases, he gave me the store’s card so that I would have their website address, then he grinned and gave me his card, because “It has my phone number on it, and I want you to call me because I think you’re really cute.”
!!!!!
I was just hit on by a random stranger! In a non-lecherous way! Bwahaha! Man, it’s fun to be a girl in a comics store.
*snerks*
