Month: September 2007

Don’t you hate discovering an interesting party just after you’ve confirmed your plans for the weekend?

This Saturday, the MurrFurr Furries will take on the USS Republic Klingons in their second annual bowling competition at Midtown Bowl in Atlanta, Georgia. Attendees are encouraged to come in their suits, whether furry or Klingon.

If only this were available on pay-per-view…

Update: Some quick notes…

• I didn’t compile or make these images; I found ’em, thought they were neat and posted them for everyone to see.
• You can find more images like this at Actualidad Simpson.

Blah blah blah Simpsons blah blah blah Citizen Kane:

Following up on the earlier Simpsons/2001 post, here’s the homage to the “Jupiter” scene with Homer on the “Spinemelter 2000” easy chair:

Update: I posted the story on MetaFilter, and it has since shown up on Boing Boing. By the end of the day, this guy’s going to be the best-known computer thief in the nerdsphere.

Tris Hussey reports:

It seems that this gentleman stole a friend’s laptop…well then decided to take pictures of himself, but then uploaded them to the laptop owner’s Flickr account. With all the caveats about allegedly, and innocence preceding guilt, if you know this person, etc … please e-mail Bill MacEwan at info AT workspace DOT com.

Click the photo to see it on its Flickr page.

Technically it wasn’t Bill’s laptop, but rather one of the iMacs at Workspace, a shared office space in Gastown, Vancouver. This particular iMac (the one used to post the photo) was setup at the coffee bar with Flickrbooth installed and Workspace’s account as the default account, so that anybody who came in for a coffee could, while waiting for their favourite caffeinated beverage, also take a photo of themselves. Whoever that is didn’t know to change the Flickr account or, more likely, not to click the upload button after having taken the photo.

A couple of episodes of The Simpsons make references to How The Grinch Stole Christmas:

Here are some stills from the Simpsons episode Stark Raving Dad, which pays homage to One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (and one still that references The Silence of the Lambs, which is alluded to in a number of episodes):
