What the 2th Fairy really looks like.

That image has been sitting in my “What To Do With This” file for some time, and I’m really really sorry. For the younger set, there’s a much better story here. [Warning: It’s the longest running discussion about fairies I’ve ever seen, and it’ll take a while to download.]

I hope that whoever designed that made sure that it’s not only slow, but leaves a trail of fluorescent slime.

[Found here. BTW, we just created a new category for all you Snail & Slug Fans so you can peruse our entire collection of gastroposts. Slime away me heartys.]

Do It In The Mud

Couldn’t figure this one out at first. [Found in here.]

The End Of The World Mayan Apocalypse December 2012

Mayan Apocalypse December 2012

Since we don’t know in which time zone the catastrophe begins, this may be my last post on Tacky Raccoons; otherwise, we’ll see you on Friday as usual.

[Concept unashamedly snatched from here. Somewhat appropriate apocalyptic music from Skeeter Davis here.]

Another Great Gift Idea – 28 Switches

This illuminating piece was created by an artist and former colleague of mine, Kiel Mutschelknaus. ‘It is a lamp with 28 switches. In order to turn the lamp ON, you need to switch all 28 toggle switches to the on position. And, logically, to turn the lamp off, ALL the switches need to be turned to the off position.

Very cool. Now wire them up to a rheostat so that the lamp may be dimmed, switch-by-switch. Dare you.  [Found here, via here.]

The .Gif Friday Post No.256 – Dance Hard, Old Man Doodle & Ephemeral Barrio

[First and Third found here and here.]

The middle one was my own experiment with MS Paint. Doodle, click, save, repeat x 86, then plug it into JASC and see what happens. Note that it was all done by right-hand mouse-clicks, even though I’m a southpaw. It doesn’t happen often, but sometimes I’m just entirely too bitchin’ for words.

Go figure.

Some images just scream for animation, and this is one of them.
