Pomplamoose - A Few Of My Favorite Things

One of my favorite things is seeing a Metafilter post about a cover of a terrible song and discovering something really wonderful. Discovering this band and Au Revoir Simone are a couple of bright spots in an otherwise crummy month.



Pomplamoose means grapefruit in French, but in my mind I see an arrogant ungulate. Yes, I know I'm weird.

BEST BEETLES SONG EVAR



Sorry, pretty much had to.

Dude, did Billy Quiz Boy just get raped by Sargent Hatred? WTF?

Comic-Con Cosplay

I love this time of year. Comic-Con is happening and pics of cosplayers abound on the interwebs. Emma Frost seems to be the go-to costume for chicks wanting to show some skin this year. There's also silly, classic, clever and kickass.

My absolute favorite.

Of course this unabashed expression of nerdity always makes me think of this song by MC Frontalot:


woooo more pics now with snarky commentary

R. Crumb Genesis

R. Crumb has illustrated Genesis. He did it straight, too, which is extremely awesome. The book comes out October 19th, but you can get a sneak peek here.

The Pinnacle of Human Achievement

What, I hadn't posted in over a month. I had to post something.

Goddamn I love this freaking song. If I played in the major leagues this would be my at bat music. And I'd dawdle at the plate every time just so I could hear all the woos.

Holy Crap This Is AWESOME

Seriously, it's like the Manos: The Hands of Fate of garage band videos.



I'm not being ironic here either, I had a big ol' smile on my face the whole damn time I was watching this thing. Sure, they suck, but they are sucking with honor. Beats the shit out of a Guitar Hero video, that's for sure.
