The plague strikes again

A few years back there was a kind of awesome BAFTA award-winning animation of Gawain and the Green Knight by a couple of Irish animation studios. It's quite gorgeously animated, in a stained-glass style, and shockingly quite true to the original. It has yet to be released on DVD, but fortunately someone has put it up on YouTube (part 1, part 2, and part 3). I'm sure it's way prettier in non-YouTube format, but it still looks pretty awesome...watch it if you're interested!

I'm feeling under the weather - sore throat, stuffy nose, cough, etc. - and have all day, so I'm not gonna do much but take some NyQuil and then zonk out. So in lieu of content, links!

Let's Positive Linking!
- This week's edition of Target: Women, yogurt commercials! (From jokersama.) Because all women love yogurt, especially middle-class white women who wear gray hoodies and are on diets!
- EPB: Emergency Party Button (from jokersama)...this is pretty awesome, complete with cheesy 90's dancepop, but I don't think I'd want it in my house. XD
- Is Levitol right for you? (From, you guessed it, jokersama.) Best (pseudo-)pharmaceutical commercial ever, and an example of how good Mad TV can be on the rare occasions when it's good.
- Bill O'Reilly is a frothing nutbag, but we all knew that already. (From ahebert.) Still, this is hilarious and worth a watch if you haven't seen it already.
- WOLL SMOTH AND FRONDS. I don't know why these never fail to make me laugh, but I always find them HILARIOUS. I just think it's too bad they haven't included the one Doctor Who one I've seen (ROS TOYLOR). XD

Edit: Thanks to jokersama, have some ROS TOYLOR. XD

It does show that, if nothing else, he's a good actor...the way he was able to just put on the smiley face for the filming bit despite the MASSIVE RAGE before and after. XD

It's totally not real...it's part of general yogurt bacteria, it's just that companies like Dannon have come up with specific substrains and patented them with fancy-sounding names. But ultimately it's just regular bacteria that are in ALL yogurt (which ARE healthy for your stomach, but you don't need expensive yuppie yogurt to get it).
