I love Facebook. I love Facebook because it brings me the wonders of the universe from like-minded friends.

Here we have a particularly lovely Flickr set with the Mighty Thor putting his skillz on display:

Not your average rabbit videos or What Do Johnny Bunko and Bunnies Have In Common?

At work today we were talking about Johnny Bunko, the new career guide done in Manga (see trailer below).

So, let's just say that I have the pleasure of working with some of the most creative people, which is a nice way of saying that things were bound to go off the deep end. Here's the email thread:

Dude, this is totally awesome!

I think the entire Dummies series should revolutionize themselves with Manga...

Cake Decorating for Dummies a la Manga
IBS for Dummies a la Manga
Window Treatments & Slipcovers for Dummies a la Manga
Rabbits for Dummies a la Manga

Which led to this response:

Rabbits Decorating Cakes with IBS a la Manga (now with Slipcovers!)

Which brings to mind...

Bunny Pop

And...

Hot Cross Bunnies

Does this mean it's time to look for a new job?

I loved this book cover from Tom Horacek's new book, All We Ever Do is Talk About Wood.

Slip on over to Drawn! for some more great images.

33-1... The pause for PABST is the best part of bridge!

"I'll re-double that 33 to 1 bid... The pause for PABST is the best part of bridge!"

You ain't kiddin', sister.

Leif Peng's awesome Today's Inspiration is filled with illustration awesomeness. The image above and copy below comes from a fantastic post about comic strip ads, click through for more 33-1 goodness from the Pabst Brewing company.

Comic Strip Ads - Delight of the Morons, on the mentality of comic strip readers:

"Sterrett is frequently asked where he met Polly and her family, where they lived and so on. Such credulousness is only found among the sub-morons among his readers. But, Sterrett believes that that quality of realism which fools the cretins is what delights the morons as well."

It's Not The Apocalypse, It's The A-Rock-alypse

And God said, "Let there be Rock!"

And there was Rock...

First, we will explain Rock Band. You want to know why you can get 8,000 fans in the door and still only make $30? We have an answer. You wanna know why the fans go nuts for 86% of Gimme Shelter? We will explain. We will knit these strange and disparate things - concepts you thought happened only because this was just a game - and tie them together into a coherent universe. In the end, you will look at the fun, happy rock music on your screen and understand every facet of this game as it is from these poor, benighted souls who must live it.
