CollegeHumor Hardly Working: American Psychos

It helps if you saw the film or read the book, but is funny regardless.

Don't laugh at us

staff:

Yes, it’s totally silly that one year after launching Tumblr, we’re moving the official Tumblr blog off of Wordpress because it was too much work to update.

We want to spotlight all of the neat stuff happening on Tumblr. So today we’re announcing the official Tumblr tumblelog: staff.tumblr.com

There’s a lot we want to do here. In addition to showing off the new features we’re building, we’re dying to brag about everything we see you folks doing. To cover it all, we’re inviting some new members of the Tumblr family to contribute. Introductions to follow.

Thanks, everyone!

 Yay!

Mother's Day vs. Father's Day in Indonesia

  • Me: Do they have Mother's Day in Indonesia?
  • Francisca: Yep, but on a different day than in the U.S.
  • Me: Is Father's Day on a different day too?
  • Francisca: They don't have Father's Day because they don't need it.
  • Me: Uh. Why is that?
  • Francisca: Because every day is Father's Day in Indonesia.

RECOUNT Movie Trailer

This looks like it could be really good.

Looks good. I love the line about honor and dignity being restored to the White House. Classic.

tmblg:

We just launched a Tumblr design service called Tumblize. It’s been a long time coming, but the day has finally arrived. If you’ve got some spare cash and you’d like a great new Tumblr theme, look no further.

These themes are stunning. I also love that someone is making money via Tumblr before Tumblr is actually making money via Tumblr. Very Twitteresque.

A custom theme from Tumblize would be sweet. And, my birthday is on the 27th. Francisca…ahem…

We hope Kindle and its successors may gradually and incrementally move us over years into a world with longer spans of attention, providing a counterbalance to the recent proliferation of info-snacking tools. I realize my tone here tends toward the missionary, and I can assure you it’s heartfelt.

Amazing advances in vending machine technology at the Dallas/Ft. Worth Airport. But, sadly, it is out of service right now.

Regular unleaded is $4.89 a gallon on the Pacific Coast Highway. We were told it’s over $6 per gallon further north. Yikes!
