weekly affirmations

yeah, it's kinda like that.

Oh facebook, why have I forsaken you? oh wait, I remember now...

I hadn't realized that having a website that had "book" at the end of it belonged to Mark Zuckerberg. there have already been two websites (Placebook and Teachbook, a travel website and teacher's resource respectively) that were pressured by facebook to change their names to something not involving "book". Because there can be only one, and facebook is THE ONE. On the bright side, Lamebook is trying to get legal protection claiming first amendment rights for being a parody to avoid being pressured by facebook to change their name or else. Lamebook is holding fundraisers to fund their legal battle. Good luck, kids!



Because remeber...THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.

Wisdom teeth

I'm not even going to explain.

Goodbye Facebook!

I have pulled the plug and left the world of facebook. in doing so, I found some old things I had forgotten about, such as this lovely bit of printmaker nerdery. It's a collection of photos of graining sinks from around the world. Wa-Hoo!!!!

Also, deleting facebook was not as easy as it should have been, and I write this so others know. the easy link only "deactivates" your facebook account, leaving all of your information, photos, etc available. When you do this, it asks you far reasons why you are deactivating your account, and everything you click pulls up reasons why you should stay. it's like trying to break up with an abusive boyfriend. It only strengthened my resolve to quite my 5 plus year relationship with the facebooks. To permanently delete your account, you have to search it out, follow the link it gives you, and then stay off facebook for 14 days. you cannot have any interaction with the website at all or your account will be re-activated. Facebook is some serious business. I was feeling a little wishy-washy about maybe rejoining in the future after I've had some space, but I was mildly creeped out and I think I'll stay away.

So Thanks, Facebook, it's been grand.

Rhymes with...Trololo

Lest we forget the awesome terror of the internet, i present the first installment of Rhymes whit (Blank). This time around, it's our lovely Trololo video, which was so popular a while ago(and I must admit a certain affection for. and by affection, I mean fanatic adoration) paired with Presincolinensinaicusol, commonly known as "What English Sounds Like to Non English Speakers".

Behold, brave travelers, the terror of the interwebz:


There is an original version of trololo, which is actually quite good. there's also a jazzy version of trololo, which is a fun experience. Yes, I went down the trololo rabbit hole.



Curiously enough, baby Ketten Karaoke has Presincolinensinaicusol as one of the songs you can sing. I am currently trying to learn it, but since it is all in nonsense written by an Italian man writing a song in gibberish, the words are a little elusive. The video above is actually composed of two separate live television appearances by Adriano Celetano. There's this one as well as this one.
