Voight-Kampff?

Bladerunner

It’s been a very long time since I received a spam comment worth posting, but this one takes the cake:

“Mary Bale the cat woman reminds me of one of Bladerunner’s replicants – straight after the ‘entre of boiled dog’ query in the Voight-Kampff test; “You find a cat alone in the street. You pet [...]

I Want an Apron

Apple Pancakes Apron

I want an apron. Specifically, this apron, because it’s bright, and it has scribbles all over it, most notably the one on the pockets reading “flour sugar milk”… it’s so cute, and I love the handwritten-quality of the writing.

Full view:

It’s not that I’m messy when I bake, even though [...]

Good Habits

"Where is my supersuit??"

A collection of links for you, for all the things I like to save up and read at once after a couple weeks:

habit: sometimes this even feels too personal to read.

unruly things: for when my random search mojo fails to find me cool new things.

abby try again: love the name. love [...]

Ponyo

Your weekly dose of unbearable cuteness:

…I dare you to try to get that song out of your head now. Just try! Couldn’t do it, could you? Didn’t think so.

Momo

Pansies!

In a conversation about my choice of business name, I randomly Googled “Momo”, and came up with a few Urban Dictionary definitions I like. {aaand a few I definitely don’t…but they weren’t fit for print, so we’re going with the good ones.} In the tradition of Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me on NPR, I wanted [...]

Yesterday Was Dramatic - Today is Ok

Tea @ 611

Title from Múm’s album by the same name, listening to “I’m 9 Today”.

So I’ve commented on comments before. I get a lot of spam-trawler-auto generated ones, which isn’t unusual; I was surprised at the Wow Gold farmers, but hey, you never know who plays Wow these days and maybe they’d have an [...]

Top Chef is Upon Us

Tom Colicchio!

Alright! I confess I crush on Tom Colicchio. Who doesn’t?? Another season of Top Chef is upon is with Top Chef VII, and I’m a little bummed that the guy I had pegged as a pompous bag of air won both $20k and the final round. Not that I don’t love a good [...]

We Like Comments

We <3 Three Panel Soul

I know the spambots don’t actually read the posts, otherwise I wouldn’t get such creatively worded comments, but seriously. I don’t like WoW Gold farmers in WoW, so why would I like them IRL? (“In real life”) Shoo, gold farmers!

This has been the one and only comment about the WoW [...]

Getting Unstuck

Rainy Day Tea

I have a confession; I’ve been stuck. I was on a roll for a while with the designs I’ve been coming up with. I’ve been running from my fear that in the end I might just turn out to be a hobbyist. I heard someone today say that and laugh. Hobbyist. I [...]
