Comic Con vs. WestBorough Baptist Church

….. Westborough Baptist Church looses.

Which is not very surprising, at all.

The usual madness that is the Fred Phelp’s clan descended onto Comic Con, USA, only to be faced by a protest held in response. With people holding signs like “Is this thing on?”, and “Odin is God”. The article doesn’t record the response of the Phelps’, but I hope that one day they will, themselves, see the light, and stop their hate-spewing nonsense. It is admirable that they are protected under the Free Speech rules, and so they should be, no matter how distasteful most people find them to be. However, it is also nice when those same rules are used to make the point that most people think them to be distasteful.

OK Go’s New Video Outdoes themself

Perhaps OK GO are not known for their music, especially as the the thing that people remember from “Here It Goes Again” is the video. Well, here’s another video by them that is frankly awesome. However, I’d be hard pushed to tell you what the song was, as I spent most of my time, open mouthed, looking at the video. So, without further ado, here’s the new video by OK Go, called “This too shall pass”

The Bible, Explained by 4Chan

Sometimes you come across some wonderful views of the Bible. Things like the “Top Shelf” Nature of it, or some-one coming up with an brief, but surprisingly accurate (from a certain point of view) praise of the Bible.

Enjoy here

Also, Jews sank the Titanic.*

Helenaism

Sometimes, when your bouncing around the internet, as I’m want to do, you come across things so deliciously bizzare, that you feel compelled to share them.

Helenaism is the “worship” of Helen Bonham Carter. For those that don’t know who she is (where have you been?), she played Belatrix in the Harry Potter movies, and owned a Pie Shop in the that movie about a barber…..

Figured I’d give it a mention.

Marilyn Reads James Joyce

More a quick post that will interest my Wife. I found this picture while wandering through the internet.



Maralin Reads James Joyce

Entertaining, isn’t it?

Maralin Monroe, often thought of as being nothing but a pretty blond, here seen reading one of the most difficult books, Ulesses by James Joyce. Not one I have personally read, but as Rosslyn is going to be doing her dissertation on James Joyce, I thought it might interest her.
