BEST COMMERCIAL EVER!

Giants are ravishing a city, only to be foiled by “DIARRHEA!” as an upbeat chorus cheerfully informs you while they perform a synchronized interpretive dance.

You’d think Pepto Max would make it available on their site, missed opportunity on their part – this commercial is HILARIOUS!!! >:D

Die Die My Darling – Chamber of Chills

Chamber of ChillsMisfits, Die Die my darling

Some of my all-time favorite imagery, once again derived from comic books, the most unappreciated often misappropriated lowbrow artform.

The infamous Misfits “Die Die My Darling” artwork is from an issue of an old Marvel comic, Chamber of Chills, sans cigarette. The artist in me hopes that the original artist was somehow compensated for usage, the realist in me doubts it.

I would love to get my hands on these comics, for the artwork alone. It looks like Marvel’s attempt to mimic EC Comics, originator of Tales from the Crypt, Haunt of Fear and Vault of Terror. If the stories are comparable, then I absolutely require these! *covets*

FREE Sirius Satellite Radio Online & Howard Stern

Go here to partake.

Free for today and tomorrow only!

Points that sold me:

I no longer listen to regular radio. We have 3 receivers and I listen online daily, so I believe in this and wholly support it. The only thing they’re really lacking is a good Industrial/Gothic station. Another source of contention is that they play Christian metal mixed in with the regular – not keen on that, as it is normally uninspired and formulaic.

Angry Beavers

WHY isn’t this show available on DVD?

I ♥ Dag

There’s always hope – they are re-airing them on NickToons, so that’s a good sign.

I’m gonna go see what’s doin’ at the Angry Beavers’ page on the Nick website.

Art Nouveau Devil Chicky

Replete w/goat eyes, here is a new entry in one of my most frequently recurring themes, devil chickies.

This is done in an Art Nouveau styling, with my twist, featuring organic lines and coiling tendrils.

Go here and click on “Curiosities” to peep this up-close and then some.
