Tomorrow I'm getting a haircut. Well, technically I'll be getting one later today since its past midnight right now. The plan is the go short, but let's see if I don't chicken out first.

Anyway, in lieu of any actual content, here are some links!

× The most amazing Persona 4 comic ever. God I laughed so hard at this.

× Photographs from a Katamari Damacy themed wedding.

× Its Katamari in real life!

× Did you know that if you pre-order Scribblenauts at certain locations you can get this awesome rooster hat? I normally don't like to get my games from GameStop but I so want this ridiculous hat! I'll don it while my brother wears the Mario cap I earned from being a Club Nintendo Platinum member.

× An amazing photograph from a hot air balloon festival. (found via [personal profile] mklutz)

× Funny Metroid comic by Norm Scott.

× This video from The Weather Channel is so heartwarming. A man rescued a blue jay and now the bird visits him every day.

× According to Pink Tentacle these amazing images of flowers by CG illustrator Macoto Murayama take "a unique look at the organic beauty of flowers by highlighting their geometric and mechanical structure". Um yeah, whatever that means. All you really need to know is that the pictures are beautiful.

× From L.A. Weekly: Interview with Venture Bros. creators Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick from Comic-Con 2009. I ♥ these two so much.

EDIT. Wow, do I know any other adjective other than "amazing"? -_-

Links.

× From [livejournal.com profile] lifemetercomics: True Love Brawls, an awesome Super Smash Bros. comic involving Link and Kirby fighting over Zelda. Seriously, if you only check out one thing from this post, this comic should be it. Go check it out!

× Cross-stitch patterns:
× Independent Lens is a weekly series of documentaries and dramas airing on PBS that I've recently started watching regularly. I used to only catch it every once in a while since I'm kind of terrible about remembering when stuff airs on PBS, but I really enjoyed Lakshmi and Me, a documentary that takes a look at the Indian caste system by showing the relationship between a maid and her employer, so I'm trying to keep my Tuesday night viewing schedule open for this series. Upcoming episode I want to see: Stranded: The Andes Plane Crash Survivors (May 19)

× Once again, Japan gets an awesome limited edition DS(i) design: Gyakuten Kenji DSi. Its the Blue Badger!

× Game Over, a flickr set of sewn, vinyl game cartridges based on old Activision games.

× The Periodic Table of Controllers

× These Gameboy plushies are so cute! I'd love to have a bunch of these sitting on my bed. The price isn't so cute though, I'd probably try to make my own before coughing up $35 per plush.

× Venture Bros. related:

re: The Venture Bros. (episode 36), The Lepidopterists

Last night's episode was awesome: the henchmen subplot (it was a hilarious bit of meta), the references to how creepy it is when Lara Croft drowns in Tomb Raider (which it it--especially how she contorts and twists [shudders]), and, most of all, the following line:

It's like being sucked off by an angel.
(The Pirate Captain said this after getting his tranquilizer dart fix. XD)


I let out such a bark of laughter that the cat in my lap leaped away in a terrified manner. Never stop with the great lines, Venture Bros! I have a feeling my crush on Doc Hammer will return soon. Its that two-toned hair, I tell ya! Ahhhhhhhh...

Now for less depressing things:

Predictions for the season finale of The Venture Bros. )

You know you're probably been reading a certain magazine way too long when one of their regular columnists disappears for a short while and you find yourself wondering what happened to them. It's like you've been reading their column for so long, and you've become so familiar with them, that their absence is similar to a friend who has moved away. (Yes, I'm lame like that.)

So when OPM posted an email in their "Dear OPM" section asking about one of my favorite contributors, Zoe Flower (who has been absent from the magazine for some time now), it was like they were reading my mind. Thank you, OPM, for saving me the embarrassment of sending you an email myself with that very question. In case you'd care to know, Zoe Flower has been designing games for a Vancouver-based developer and is expecting her first child. Congrats, Zoe!

Other magazine ramblings, mainly of reader mail (including one that pissed me off majorly) from the October issue of EGM. )

Time for cat pictures! ...Plus a few random others. )

Re: The Venture Bros. episode "Guess Who's Coming to State Dinner?"
My thoughts on this episode can be summed up in two words: GHOST LINCOLN. Abraham Lincoln, and his crazy (ghostly) attempts at preventing the president from being assassinated, positively stole the show here.

...Otherwise, this episode was fairly average.

Perfect Girl Evolution has an anime now. ♥ I look forward to seeing Sunako in all her animated glory. I thought Ranmaru would be given blondish hair like Yuki and Kyohei, so I was surprised to see they gave him red hair. And the boys are so girly looking!
