Silly pictures greatest hits

Having acquired the archives of the late lamented diedrichstable website, I present a selection of some of my favorites. A few of the pictures make no sense if you don't know the people involved, but I feel that the entire Interweb should be able to enjoy the Queen of Foil, a Shneezwerg, one drunk-ass Tigger, the only Leisuretown cake every produced to my knowledge, and our favorite Christian Yuppie Couple sucking on an alcohol-soaked tampon.

zebulon_y, are you still burpin' up scrapple?

Speak for me, I'm mute.

Faces along the bar
Cling to their average day:
The lights must never go out,
The music must always play,
All the conventions conspire
To make this fort assume
The furniture of home;
Lest we should see where we are,
Lost in a haunted wood,
Children afraid of the night
Who have never been happy or good.


-- W.H. Auden


I can't go on; I'll go on; I can't go on.

-- Samuel Beckett

Character is psychosis.

-- Otto Rank

Love again: wanking at ten past three
(Surely he's taken her home by now?),
The bedroom hot as a bakery,
The drink gone dead, without showing how
To meet tomorrow, and afterwards,
And the usual pain, like dysentery.

Someone else feeling her breasts and cunt,
Someone else drowned in that lash-wide stare,
And me supposed to be ignorant,
Or find it funny, or not to care,
Even ... but why put it into words?
Isolate rather this element

That spreads through other lives like a tree
And sways them on in a sort of sense
And say why it never worked for me.
Something to do with violence
A long way back, and wrong rewards,
And arrogant eternity.

-- Philip Larkin

We have dealt no great blow to the Devil by renaming him "neurosis".

-- Carl Jung

I've been up all night and I hate everyone.

You are an evil, bitter clown.

You lurk in the closets of children waiting to
eat their souls. Empty of life and hungering for the
blood of the living, you wait in sleepless rage to
suck the life from the innocent.

Take the What Evil Clown are You?
quiz from Fringehead Industries!

This would be a great job if it wasn't for the customers and the impending extinction.

Books that should not exist

Live from the 19th street Borders:

1. "the complete idiots guide to tantric sex"

2. "become an energy addict"

3. "intellectual foreplay"

4. "alive and well with Uranus"

5. "modern magick"

I had too much to nap today.

I'm all zingy, zappy, and fizzy. I think I'll be reading late into the night.

Blueberries in nonfat yogurt make me happy.

Question of the day, following a discussion at D's about childhood reading: What book or books in childhood did you particularly love? Which one or ones did you reread multiple times? Which one would you go back and read now, as an adult?
