I was cruising Usenet this morning and saw a guy posting about a band called Amarna Reign and he calls it melodic progressive deathcore. Really? Does that even make any kind of sense at all? I then Googled the band and the first two hits are their MySpace and Facebook pages. Apparently they don’t even have their own web site. A search on Wikipedia shows that they must have taken their name from ancient Egyptian history so that’s one good point in their favor.
This picture really doesn’t look deathcore, does it?
I ran across this e-mail signature and it is definitely the longest one I’ve ever seen. Let’s step through it, shall we? (Apologies for the ugly pixelation but I had to blur out personal info and I didn’t want to spend a lot of time on it.)
We’ve first got her name and title (all well and good) but then a full list of everyone for whom she is the assistant. Street address of the company is next, is that really necessary for electronic mail? Next is her e-mail address (couldn’t you just get it from the e-mail itself?) followed by phone and fax numbers.
Next up is a pithy quotation (source not identified of course) and then the company name, slogan and web site. Whew!
I just looked at the top search terms that brought people to this site and had a good laugh.

How can anyone live without the The Poking Man Pen Stand? I swear this must have been invented by the same guy that came up with the humping dog USB drive. Please, whatever you do don’t click on the video at work.
This one is for my friend Shack who will someday have his own monkey.
Should we be thanking him for keeping outbreak over there on such a heavy-duty chain, or should we call someone to come and do something? I feel the latter is more appropriate.
I saw that on an episode of It’s Always Sunny in Philidelphia (about my favorite comedy show right now) and laughed my ass off, it’s the DICK TOWEL. That’s right, they actually created a web site for a gag from the show, including a Yahoo shop so that you can apparently actually buy them.
Wow, the people that Wal-Mart brings out of the woodwork is just amazing. If you deign to shop at Wal-Mart then be sure to take along your camera next time you go.
Someone sent me a the link below to a cool interactive time-lapse photograph of the Hong Kong skyline. If you hover your cursor over the top of the image it shows the time at 6:10 (presumably PM). As you move your cursor down the image the time advances as does the picture until it’s 90 minutes later and now dark at 7:10PM with the cursor at the bottom.
I think that this is a great use of Flash, very creative.
I saw this on The Soup the other night and it has got to be the worst pet invention ever. I can’t even imagine what kind of person would subject their dog to wearing a full-body harness that holds a poop bag up to their butt. How lazy/squeamish do you have to be to buy this product? I would be embarassed to have my dog walking around wearing this contraption.
SEXY PEOPLE. Yes, this site is absolute comedy gold. A friend of mine (thanks Darana!) got sent a link to this site via Twitter-spam and I browsed around a bit and fell off my damn chair. Check out the Acid Wash and Stache?? pages first. The sub-title of the site is “a celebration of the perfect portrait” so I think he just trolls the Internet for portrait images to use on his site.
