It’s Like Gumby, Except Bacon!

Posted by on

[High Praise! to ThinkGeek]

Mr. Bacon wants to be your friend. He wants to sleep near you and read everything you read and share your breakfast. He wants to try on your clothing and meet your pals and grow old together with you. Just one thing, though: don’t piss off Mr. Bacon. Because tucked into his fat folds, Mr. Bacon has a little knife and he’ll cut you. Just kidding, of course; Mr. Bacon loves you. And you’ll love your Bendy Mr. Bacon right back.

Each Bendy Mr. Bacon has bendy arms and legs, so you can pose him in oh so many ways. He’s great fun to play with – simple, childlike fun where imagination can take the two of you anywhere. Bendy Mr. Bacon is much more hygienic than playing with regular bacon, too. Oh, and . . . wait, Mr. Bacon just left the room (he was reading this over our shoulder). Seriously, don’t piss him off. He’s been holding us hostage for the last two wee . . . Oh, hey Mr. Bacon. No, we were just telling them how nice you are. Bendy Mr. Bacon – get one now. Or else.

Nuke the Moon: The Movie

[High Praise! to NukeTheMoon.net]

It’s a work in progress, but these beautiful lunatics want to make a satirical movie based on Project A119 (aka Nuking the Moon). Here’s a clip:

Link of the Day: A Quick Lesson for the Childish Minds of the ‘Participant Ribbon’ Left

[High Praise! to Cyanide and Happiness]

Participant

NOTE: Typically, Cyanide & Happiness cartoons are neither safe for work nor are they in anything even remotely resembling good taste (making it, of course, one of my favorite guilty pleasures). However the cartoon linked above is a noteworthy exception, and highly recommended.

UPDATE: SNL makes a similar point in this video [High Praise! to Moonbattery]:


[YouTube direct link] (Viewer #79,544)

Word of caution: because it IS an SNL skit, this 4 minute video is literally a laugh a minute.

Amazing… 37 years on TV and they’ve STILL never produced a sketch that moves faster than a 3-legged turtle.

Look! Art That Offends Liberals!

Posted by on

[High Praise! to NCRenegade for the Beck link]

In response to the horrid publicly funded artwork featuring a crucifix dipped in urine, Glenn Beck has put an Obama Jesus bobblehead in a similar situation.

Liberals are outraged, since no public funds were used in its creation.

Video: Parody of ‘Dumb Ways to Die’ (‘Cool Things to Find’) – an Ode to the Mars Curiosity Rover

[YouTube direct link] (Viewer #920,051)

Although it’s definitely *better* if you’ve seen “Dumb Ways to Die” because you’ll get the references to the music and animation style, I think this video actually stands alone quite well on its own quirky humor and upbeat message.

This week’s uncaptioned picture for you to play with:

Kris, for Xeno, although I’m a little disturbed that he’s that familiar with “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”.

PRODUCTION NOTES:
#1: When creating lolbama! pictures, please caption with either black or white text, as colors like red and yellow tend to blur badly when I compress the images.

#2: Standard image size for these posts is 350px wide by whatever high. If you can have your images 350px wide before you caption them, I won’t end up shrinking your captions into illegibility when I re-size the images.

MAKE YOUR OWN: The free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.

STYLE NOTE: Short captions are usually better. Your goal is 10 words or less, with humor value tending to increase exponentially as the number of words approaches 1.

Send your submissions to lolterizt@gmail.com and – if they aren’t obscene (IMAO is a PG-13 site) and don’t suck too terribly bad – I’ll post them for you. Remember to include your name (and blog URL, if applicable) so I know who to thank.
