Today's Mighty Oak


And I’m restarted and updated and back!

Let’s start it off with this amazing pic:

I never really thought to add smoking and reading, but, someone else did.

Last year, the Westboro Baptist Church picketed outside of Twitter. because God hates messages that are 140 character or less…or something.  But they got rick-rolled!

Check out some other awesome signs here.  I love when nerds counter-protest!

This is amazing!  Apparently, doctors in the U.K. have been able to bring about brain activity on a man in a coma who was declared brain dead, and now they can ask him simple questions.  Amazing!

Gamespy has a list of the 25 worst stock video game photos, check them out here, and below is a favorite:

Making a website or some other pursuit and need a dummy image?  Here’s a dummy image generator, pretty handy when you need it.

Have I told you lately how much I want this?  Really, this would be awesome right next to a Lost Orchid Station sign.  Dorkiest garden ever!

It’s from last year, I believe from when Facebook once again screwed up their privacy settings, but check out this history of media scares.

Okay, that’s it for now, I think.  Catch everybody soon!



Hello everybody!  Shorter update today I think, but let’s see what I can find for you.

For anyone who has seen The Onion movie, this next sentence will make sense.  Cockpuncher is being sued for keeping sex slaves!  In related news, Steven Segal is being sued for having sex slaves.

I’ve always wondered how many people have lived on Earth, in total, since you know, we started.  Someone finally figured it out!  Over 106 Billion.  That’s a lot!

A fun clip from the Daily Show, my favorite part, “It turns out the people in the White house are not secret Muslims, they’re nerds!”

My dad sent me this link to an awesome article about a dog who is a Verger!  Check it out.

A typographer take aim at the iPad here.

Inspired by a case in Florida in 2007 (I think), Obama extended the right to same-sex couples to be at the side of their partner in hospitals.  This also extends the benefit to friends, such as in cases where there is no family left.  Very classy, but a shame it took this long for it to happen.

And one more Daily Show clip, this one is pretty good, I love the yelling:

I posted the Spiderman version a little bit ago, now, what if Wes Anderson directed the Lord of the Rings?  Spiderman seemed more like The Royal Tennenbaums, this one seems more like The Darjeeling Limited:

This is probably the best thought out computer virus I’ve ever heard of.  It steals your temporary files and web browsing history (presumably also including passwords to things like banking sites and e-mail) and publishes them online, charging you about $20 to remove them.  Awesome.  Now I’m just waiting for karma to strike me.

Listen, this next video is strange, and probably crosses the line.  Why am I posting it?  Because it’s an interesting take on TV ads, as well as a neat execution.  It’s from a campaign in The Netherlands to promote South Park.  That really should tell you all you need to know.  The first scene is the worst, but the fact that they get in killing Kenny should be commended.  Anyway, you’ve been warned, you probably shouldn’t watch it:

And that’s it for now, have a great one everybody!
