I think I'm pretty much done with the Simpsons question of the day. (previous and last answer: Bart wrote that goldfish don't bounce.)

Fact of the day: In 1993, Frank Zappa died at the ripe age of 52. It's also Wink Martindale's birthday! And happy birthday Tyra Banks!


I love old prospectors. Via Neatorama, here is a fantastic waste of time for a Tuesday. It's the Homespun Analogy Generator. Some gems from this morning: "She was as embarassed as a yellow-bellied crow with no bones," "She was as hungover as an old jackass in a tornado," "He's as successful as a chocolate gorilla in an igloo."

A Special Feature: How to Fuck with your Friends and Impress Strangers

When friends go out of town and leave their stuff/house/animals in your charge, it's your social responsibility to annoy the hell out of them for inconveniencing you for that time period.

Rules: 1) Don't break anything (especially the animals), 2) It can't be anything permanent, but how long it takes to actually undo can be indefinite, 3) Should be cheap to do, let's not break the bank.

Ideas:

Tin Foil Wrapping found via Neatorama
How to:

1. Visit local dollar store and buy every roll you can find. Visit other locations around the globe if necessary.

2. Start wrapping. Remember that you must also stay in said apartment, so I wouldn't initially wrap anything you may need soon...like that jar of pickels in their fridge.





The Pink Prank Project
How To:

1) Locate a bulk amount of the ugliest color wrapping paper possible. (Visit local dollar store for bucketloads of tape).

2) Wrap anything and everything possible. Recruit other friends and well-wishers as necessary.

3) Skip town as soon as friend comes back into town.



Song of the moment translated into Japanese and then back into English: "It is not possible as for me with that outside being cool the baby who is to be really restricted. I depart with that outside being cool the baby who is, it becomes, but. Is splendid directly this evening so very. I grasp your like the ice hand exactly." (previous song: Landed by Ben Folds)
