Ah Pity the Milk dat gets mah Crispy Sweet Corn and Oats Cereal all Soggy n’ Stuff
You know exactly what this is. When you were a kid you were full of it. I pity you. I really do. While I was heavily invested in the Cap’n Crunch experience, I’d already graduated to Grape Nuts and beer by the time this wonderment came along. Here it is in all its glory:
The linked website doesn’t just have a picture of the stuff in the box and the box itself, but all the really cool stuff that came with it, including the “FREE ADVENTURE BOOK INSIDE.” We all have Quaker Oats to thank for Mr. T. Who’d have thought that a mere cereal could create an internet superstar like the Mohawk Man o’ Peace?
[Images source from here, an I be dare y’all to leave a commentabulation on that website, Foo.
Don’t forget this and this. You can also view it in action at the bottom of the post here.]
Saturday Matinee: NYC Air Vent Zoo
This is cool. So cool that I wish you’d thought of it, and I take back all the nasty things I thought about WordPress while they were revamping their vamps. Video embedding works again, and we’re back to almost normal.
Speaking of dogs, here’s one with a really happy face.
[First two found on RGF. Twice. Second found on the Utoobage by arbitrarily entering “Dog Face” in the search engine.]
Other news: The LA Times has a story on the guy that designed this sign:
Here’s a logical analysis of the design from a young George Lopez. (Caveat: the interview with the “CalTrans director” is staged.)
[Link to story found at GrowaBrain; Utoobage video was emailed to me long ago.]
And since the theme of this post seems to morphing again and that I usually post some vapid music video, here’s C&C with a sweet betime song. (Daughters Bunkessa and Bunkarina both know all the words to this. I dunno why and neither do you.)
[6PM UPDATE BONUS! Been busier than a dog with a bladder problem in a fire hydrant factory the past few weeks. As a result, I didn’t catch this video from Aussie Phil until yesterday. I’d axed him to gimme a taste of Aussie slang, and he posted THIS. It’s all “Crododile Dundid” to me, but there are alot of recobanizable puns in the video. Tip O’ the Tarboosh to Phil… he’s in Room 534.
Here’s the video, but for this yank it really needs captioning. No offense to the only supporters in the world of the Vegemite industry. [Y’all rock, mates.]
Global Warming Declared Racist: Rewards Only White Beachcombers with Doritos, Ignores Minorities’ Desire for Snack Food
Seattle, WA (Strutts News Services) – Global Warming was blamed for the ocean currents that transported several thousand air-tight packages of Doritos to the coast of Washington, leaving thousands of minorities without the addictive snack food. A total of three white people recobanized the profits to be had after a cargo bin spilled off of a cargo bin carrier ship during a nasty storm during which the cargo ship dropped its cargo. The word spread up and down the coast:
“DORITOS! DON’T TELL THE BLACKS AND THE ASIANS!”
A cargo ship that finds itself in seas that causes it to drop its cargo is not funny at all. Ask someone who has been there and done that. But only white people comb the beaches for Doritos.

Emo Girl Sinks into Deep Depression. Again.
This is one of those images that just screams “POST ME!” but won’t give you a hint as to what it’s all about. I’m not even sure where the image came from. This is a TLS (Temporary Lack of Sleep) babble post; fortunately for you I deleted 3/4 of it. I’ll be better tomorrow, relatively speaking.
[Found it. Image from here. You Rock, Hopper.]
P.S. These WordPress changes suck.
[UPDATE 11 April 2008: The glitches with the WordPress changes have been resolved and it’s cool again.]
Finicky Penguins Rediscover Flight: Global Warming Blamed
[Sorry folks, this just isn’t taking. The penguin video featuring Michael Palin was great, but then the BBC continues with some disgusting stuff that doesn’t belong here unless Bunk thinks it belongs here.]
Here’s the link just in case you still wanna see it. It’s a good ‘un.
Just look at how much fun these little guys are having. Do we really want to take it away from them?[Tip o’ the Tarboosh to SH for this heads up.]
Still experimenting with the new WordPress. The video starts with an annoying commercial, then continues with the Penguins. But then it continues with other BBC stories.
Insert Capital F-word here.
Your Pal, Bunk
[UPDATE: Wait a minute. That’s not Michael Palin. That’s the dead guy, whatsisname, Mr. Creosote, right?]
[UPDATE 2 May 2008: Here’s a new link!]
Saturday Matinee: This is a Test
The nice folks at WordPress decided to challenge us by revamping the way we normally create posts. Looks like it has some new bells and whistles that are kinda cool, like being able to post archived videos without having to upload them to the Utoobage, but it won’t let me do it for some reason. Ditto music. So I decided to link to a video on the Utoobage, like I have in the past, and this is all I get:
It’s a link to the Utoobage alright, but you can’t see it on the post itself. This is not good and I hope the nice folks at WordPress resolve this annoyance. I guess I shouldn’t complain… after all, their website hosting is free [LIKE BLOGGER.com].
Please bear with me for the next few days. As y’all know, this site updates daily, but with my current workload I may have to skip a day now and then. Don’t worry, Tacky Raccoons isn’t going away, but it might move.
Your Pal, Bunk
The Devil’s Hands are Idle Tools
And the Idle Tools think this is a good thing… The guy with the pink makeup and devil horns has huge hands and is squeezing paper. Pure vapid genious, and Bunk shouts, “Suck that gut in, Bro! Show some class!”
I really like that photo. Stupid and absurd. And he’s serious.
[Image from a protest party via an excellent anonymous anti-moonbat website almost as good as this one.]
Fish Tanks Wash Mediterranean of Insurgents
Malta (Strutts News Services) – According to reliable sources, Allied operations in the Mediterranean Sea have been suspended indefinitely due in large part to the success of the “surge” of armed forces swamping the region. Reports from the depths of the fighting confirm that although insurgent forces resurfaced a few months ago, a flood of countermeasures have restored the area to pre-war conditions.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, M1A1 Armor Crewman Lannie Foosers commented that the surge has been a success. “Basically we broke the supply lines from Latakia to Marseille and flushed out the insurgents’ movements.”
Although asked/baited several times by other media sourCes preseNt, to his iNtegrity, Foosers declined to make a lame pun about donating mobile artillery vehicles in trade for personal recollections in reference to a Bob Hope recording.
I Don’t Know What It Means Either.
