I’ve been busy this month and had been filing things away with read it now but had to wipe my hard drive. This is a combination of some things I recently came across and things that I remembered from before. The greatest loss was my archive of link images.
Watching people crash and burn when it comes to dating can be painful, it can also be hilarious. Not that I’m a psychotic guy but this scenario is why I’m afraid to leave voicemails regardless of the subject at hand.
I’ve been spending some time at Pirate Cat Radio here in San Francisco and it’s a great outfit. The station has a pretty eclectic set of shows, the djs I’ve met have all been really cool and interesting folk, and the cafe carries treats so good that I’ve probably shaved a few years off my life expectancy already. Seriously, bacon fat in a latte? Check for in-stores and interviews (blog favorite Nobunny will be there Sept 1st at 6 PM.) It’s all volunteer operated and the cafe supports the station so go in and show some love.
I don’t have an iphone but I’m glad it exists because the parody ads are becoming their own art form. This new one from Adam Sacks blows the rest of his ads away. You should take a look at his Avatar commentary too.
People of Walmart is everything a Tumblr should be.
Stevil Kinevil of How To Avoid The Bummer Life has a new blog called All Hail the Black Market. If you ride a bike or like having fun you’re probably going to enjoy it. BSNYC approved.
I’ve been playing the new twitter game City of Blood which is similar to spymaster but there’s a kind of story line to it and different tasks to “do.” It’s still just clicked “do job” but for some reason I’m intrigued. I haven’t even explored the gang rivalry side of it yet. The fact that you can buy credits or get them from doing surveys for things that are probably rife with spyware is pretty lame though.
