Miiiiiiight as well face it, you’re addicted to meth
Yes, I’m about to promote Tumblr blogs on my own non-Tumblr blog. Because honestly I’m still trying to mentally recover from last semester and I’m busy with calc + work + trying not to implode, so DEAL WITH IT.
If you dig minimalist posters of pretty much everything cool, you’ll dig this guy’s Tumblr.
This is the guy who did those cauliflower interpretations of major news events I posted quite awhile back.
For the 0% of you who follow me for my (now rare) R posts.
Basically the internet condensed into a single Tumblr.
This is the greatest thing on the internet.
Jesus Markoving Christ is a generator by Josh Millard that takes words/phrases from the Bible and creates new phrases based on a Markov chain process.
(Yes, this is the same guy who did the Garkov generator I posted a few days back, but this is so much more entertaining).
Some of these are just…wow.
Someone should make a quiz: “Actual Bible Quote or Jesus Markoving Christ?”

The best part about being sleep-deprived and then spending the wee hours of the morning on Tumblr is waking up after finally getting some sleep and seeing some of the weird-ass crap you’ve reblogged/saved on your compy that you don’t remember.
Examples:
Noise from the ‘Net
I’m getting all my YouTubin’ out now because once classes start I won’t have time to do much else but study/work/revel in joy.*
Oh man. I’ve seen this before like AGES ago, but holy freaking crap.
Pizzzzza.
Large Macs.
BONBONBONBONS. The way he says it. I’m on the floor, oh my god.
Dude. This song and video.
It’s Rage Quit, so excessive cursing warning and all that. And it’s Nyan Cat, so excessive seizure-inducing flashing warning and all that as well.
I’m just gonna put this here. It’s actually a really catchy song; I listened to it on repeat for like two hours the other day.
END!
*Who am I kidding, nothing can keep me off of the Tubes. Damn you, Al Gore. Damn you.
Oh my goodness, internet.
These. Are. Fantastic.
For any poor soul not familiar with the term “YouTube Poop”, a rough definition from KnowYourMeme describes it as, “[a] video that has been made with appropriated footage and collage editing techniques for the purpose of either annoying or entertaining viewers in the increasingly indifferent world of Youtube.”
These are two of the greatest Poops I’ve ever seen.
“Never ever?”
I was literally on the floor laughing at the Six Flags and the raving. And “BAAAABAAAAAR!”
Haha, sorry. I thought these were fantastic. This is why I want to study the internet.
How did I live without YouTube?
It might just be the sleep deprivation, but both of these are just hilarious. Again, if excessive (yet hilarious) angry cursing offends you, do not watch.
Woah, flashbacks
I totally forgot I’d started this blog on MySpace until the little neural pathways that had formed over the course of four and a half years caused me to automatically scroll to the “MySpace” bookmark rather than the “Wordpress” bookmark and I was automatically logged into my old account.
Everything’s still there! I look horrible with long hair.
Crazy life.
Oh Internet, You Are a Vast and Wonderful Place
The awesome site FlowingData brought this to my attention. It’s a map of the internet! Created by Ruslan Enikeev, it’s a searchable graphic displaying data for over 350,000 websites. Says Enikeev:
“The Internet map is a bi-dimensional presentation of links between websites on the Internet. Every site is a circle on the map, and its size is determined by website traffic, the larger the amount of traffic, the bigger the circle. Users’ switching between websites forms links, and the stronger the link, the closer the websites tend to arrange themselves to each other.”
The colors represent websites from different countries (the light blue is the US, yellow is China, red is Russia, things like that).
My thoughts and observations:
Pretty, isn’t it?
Google.ca just BARELY eclipses StumbleUpon. That’s hilarious.
Flickr’s bigger than Tumblr? Blasphemy!
God, look at all of Google’s little satellite circles. Watch out, little websites. Google’ll eat you.
I can’t even zoom in close enough to see the name of that little Russian website. That blue part of the screen? That’s Google.
Explore! Al Gore would be proud. Donate to the creator, too. This must have taken a lot of work.
Edit: Okay, I calculated it all out. If we took the biggest circle on there, Google, and set its diameter equal to the diameter of Jupiter, the following sites would have diameters (roughly) proportional to the other planets:
Mercury: Newgrounds
Venus: IBM
Earth: Walmart
Mars: 4chan
Saturn: YouTube
Uranus: Amazon
Neptune: LinkedIn
And for old times’ sake, Pluto: Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal
Exciting times!
Why is it ZZ Top? Isn’t Z at the BOTTOM of the alphabet?
The best part of Sundays = reading all the Metalocalypse fandom reactions before watching the new episode. It makes me happy.
In other totally unrelated news, I randomly stumbled upon the website of the Australian Chicken Meat Federation. One of the pages has this picture at the top of it.
Um…
