Gives "Punky Brewster" a whole new meaning, huh?

[gogmagog]

Interesting English factoid of the day: "punk" originally meant "whore" (as seen in Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor).

...the more you know, right?

Also, jantalaimon rocks like a...very rocking thing (I can't think of a comparison). I came home yesterday to find a package of homemade candy and cookies from her...thank you! <3 <3 <3

The chocolates are delicious...and I haven't tried the springerle yet, but they smell deliciously of absinthe anise. :D

Er, it's been a while since I posted and I don't really have much new to say, but I do have a helluva lot of linkspam! :D

Let's Positive Linking!
- Shortpacked! A fun webcomic about a toy store. (From someone on IRC, I forget who.) But how can you not like jokes like this? Or this?
- 10 Ways to Kill Malfoy. A funny little fanthing. (From jokersama.)
- Softcore Twinkies, Hardcore Relations. A funny but entirely disturbing and not worksafe HariPo fanfic from the same site. Ew.
- Stupidest movie title EVAR. I'm just hoping Samuel Jackson says some version of "motherfucker" at some point during the movie. "There are motherfucking snakes on this plane!" or something along those lines.
- Hideo Kojima acts like Uwe Boll has moviemaking cooties. He's not wrong. XD
- Yes, Wikipedia does have entries on any and everything.
- A creepy-ass silent hill music video. Probably not worksafe. (From jokersama.)
- In the latest from the "recut trailers" department, it's Brokeback to the Future. (From jantalaimon.)
- Another recut trailer, this time for Sleepless in Seattle. :D
- Teen crack whore author actually middle-aged woman. Who is probably not a crack whore.
- Apparently the Slam Dunk! mangaka gets hit with plagiarism charges right after pressing them on someone else. (From jokersama.) D:
- Flickeur, a cool thing that takes random pictures off Flickr and creates a film. Mine always end up looking like something out of the Fatal Frame games or Ring movies.
- AICN does a set report for Neil Gaiman's Beowulf, which I now want to see, like, YESTERDAY. :D~~~

A Beowulf movie? I'll have to watch it to find out more about this oracle knight from Final Fantasy Tactics.

You know, I was going to say "wrong Beowulf, there's no HOTT MAN X DRAGON ACTION in this one." But, you know, I honestly don't know if that's true. XD

oh, to be that delightful, moist brownie of kinship!

*dies a thousand, thousand deaths*

no absinthe was used in the making of those cookies (although haha, i should've thought of that XD). a fair bit of anise oil went into them, though. XD

They are indeed tasty! (And pleasantly reminiscent of absinthe...good times, good times.)

...I guess your icon answers the question of whether Harry spits or swallows, huh? XD

Naked Angelina Jolie? Well, at least Beowulf will capture the all important "Horny Loser" demographic.

The girl who made those Harry Potter things is my roommate (and an awesome one at that)! I've had the pleasure of hearing a live reading of that fanfic :D

Really? It never fails to amaze me what a small world the Internet and fandom is. Tell her she rocks. XD

So, which email address should I use?

[yoshitsune.livejournal.com]

My gmail address - yosituna AT gmail DOT com - tends to get checked a LITTLE more often. (Though I'm horrible about checking e-mail in general, period. I hadn't checked either account all week before today. So checking more frequently is probably a habit I need to get into.)
