We have the second results from:
FUCK WITH MY ART!!!

Thanks, C. Dawg.



C. Dawg makes me laugh. His stick figures are awe-inspiring. Dig the background details...

Current Music: "You Only Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk" - Pet Shop Boys
Last Book I Read a Page of: WHITE NOISE - Don Dellilo
Last Movie: Oldboy (Korea, 2003, Drama/Thriller/Suspense, WATCH IT...it pissed on my brain, in a good way)
Next Movie: Six Fingered Strings Demon AKA Deadful Melody (1993, HK, Kung-Fu Fantasy)
Why, yes, thanks for asking, it is yet again:

SHAMELESS PLUG TIME!

For starters, the LJ fabulous-osity of:
[livejournal.com profile] neodymium155 Now he's [livejournal.com profile] funranium

Okay, now, seriously, this is some funny-ass shit (not funny ass-shit...that's...different). He writes about science and science work and about how he used to live in Antarctica and boozing and I am having a hard time describing his wit...dry, yet fun. Vicious, yet full of awesome.

FROM HIS LJ USER DESCRIPTION:     I am Cryo Boy, he who kept Antarctica from thawing out for one entire year. The coastlines of the world owe a great debt to me for the year 2003. Now, I clean up the detritus of 50 years of science gone wild (less girls, more radiation and chemicals) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

SAMPLE TEXT: From the entry entitled "Messing with the Bowling Alley Again" --
    Once again I destroyed the craphop and angry white boy groove. Tonight had a Muppets motif..."Rainbow Connection" and "Moving Right Along". A couple of high school football meathead types began stalking up and down the bowling alley, angrily asking if people had "put that shit on".
    I win.

From the entry entitled "Damn Contractors" --
    0430 is an unholy hour to be waking up. It is a time for the last stragglers of a party to be leaving. It is a time for coming to, blinking a bit and wondering why you are naked in the pantry with traffic cone, before going to bed properly. It is a time to not talk to people because those who are awake are they who don't want to be and are forced to, or are winding down from the previous evening and in no condition to converse, or are one of the crazies who haunt the strange places and times of day.  
    Because of heatstroke concerns, the contractor is now starting work removing the galbestos (all the asbestos, Now With Hexavalent Chromium!) siding from B431 at 0530. This means I have to be here by 0500.
    They will suffer for this. Deep hurting. I will safety them something fierce.

    Please to read his stuff and you will find why he later says of them: "
I Safety'd Them Goooooood: To ignore me is foolish.  Annoy me at your peril.  Wake me up at 4:15am and do both...you will face my wrath."

PLUG the SECOND:

    In addition, you'll get that warm, fuzzy feeling you get from supporting an actual artist instead of buying jewelry at Wal-Mart-Hell-Doom.

On an unrelated note, a snippet of conversation from a few minutes ago:

ME:
You realize that if you were on fire and there wasn't any water, I'd throw up on you to put it out.
HER: Don't tell me that.
ME: Honey, which would you rather be: on fire or covered in my vomit?
HER: *pause* I don't think I wanna answer that.
