Steampunk + taxidermy = FIXED.

That’s pretty fucked up right there.

I reckon the only safe way to drive down the A666 would be backwards, thus reversing any inherent Satanic energies you may be channelling.

That’s a point actually… people used to go on about secret messages hidden backwards in heavy metal. Well there’s quite a lot of pretty fucking overt Satany going on forwards in some of the deeper darker stuff. What happens if you play that backwards? Does the world implode?

Or does it become a message of peace from the heart of the cosmos?

Mind you… it could potentially be something much much worse… Cliff Richard, the Anti-rock.

DON’T DO IT.

…I have been extremely good this year.

How’s about a hamper?

Thanks,

Great article by Charlie Stross about thirty years of… um… progress?

“Would you like summer #1 or summer #2?”

But seriously. What the fuck?

I know you. You’re a smart, funny, intelligent, confident young woman making your way in the world-wide-web today, just like me. Therefore you are aware of the excellent webcomic XKCD. It is by turns hilarious, randomist, über-geeky, heart-achingly warm, but always brilliant.

See then comic #240. Read it again, inwardly digest, then come back.

Yes, that string of digits does indeed represent an exact geographical location and an exact time. The twist is this: at the time of writing, that exact time is in the future. It’s 2.38pm on 23rd September, 2007. And the geographical location is a point on a street in North Cambridge, Boston, USA.

My question is – do any of you who read this (women or not) live anywhere in or near Boston? And are you going to be there on 23rd September this year? (It’s a Sunday, by the way.) If so… can I ask you a favour? Could you go to this address at exactly 2.38pm and see what happens?

I’d be much obliged, Kthx.

[Oh, and a thousand bonus points if you could identify the film from which the title of this post comes, and the actor who said it, without Googling.]

“A doctor in Oregon flushed out the aching lughole of a nine-year-old boy to find two spiders had set up home inside his ear canal.”

AAAAAARGH. Make them stop, please. At least this was in the U.S. of States, and not here in good old blighty.

*shudder*

GREAT. No, really. That’s just great. THANKS VERY MUCH.

So I’ll mostly be just hiding in my house for the rest of my life, should you need me.

Aaaargh!
