The Scary Stuff at Nintendo World

Bughie J., H1 said I should take this picture for you -



what's that blue one doing?

I think H1 was traumatized and bad memories came rushing back to me as well when I remembered giant spotted bug beasties chomping and rolling.

Secretly...the rolling on always kinda cracked me up.

Currently listening to: "Hurt Feelings" by Flight of the Conchords. I feel like a prize asshole.

Stuff of Nightmares

H1 and I have always wondered how in the history of the world, people just looked at something and decided, "hey, that looks like something I should eat".

Wiki provided some nightmares on Friday with the picture of the day:



The article on this here Hydnellum peckii or bleeding tooth fungus says that it's inedible. Really? Did someone actually try this? And if we knew to stay away from this (because honestly, I don't know WHO would WANT to eat that...stomach churning looking monstrosity), how come Asians decided Durian was okay to eat? Or do they eat this fungus as well?

Wiki's not all bad though.

They did have one of the most awesome articles on Friday as article of the day that was all about Komodo Dragons.

Awww, look at how precious he is...



Currently listening to: My own coughing. Bleck.

No 1 + a Flat Meatball After 8 PM

I had the weirdest dreams this morning. Perhaps they were not SO weird but I dreamt I got my copy of Guitar Hero III and a PS3 controller guitar hooked into it but obviously didn't work as well.
Then I dreamt it doubled as a CD, so I put it in a cd player (See how this dream is messed up? A Cd player...har har har har. What is that?) and it was filled with pop music and No Doubt, save the one MUSE track "Supermassive Blackhole" followed by "Shut Me Up" by MSI. I think I may have been fighting my nightmare at that point but lost the war when the next part of my dream found me sitting in the car with H1 and Lou and we were playing song guessing games of 80's songs on the Sirius.

I guessed "Foolish Rain" to some song I can't even hear right now (no, not "Fool in the Rain" unfortunately) but rather some damned Nelson song I think.

Needless to say I now have "Love and Affection" chiming away in my head as we speak. This could potentially be a bad day...

Ah well, at least I got good MUSE news when I awoke. Good news or am I still having a bit of a weird dream...?

Muse planning 'electronic' album

Muse have explained that their next album is likely to have a more electronic feel than their previous work.

Speaking to The Daily Star, drummer Dom Howard explained that him and his bandmates plan to start work on the album in the new year.

"We're going to start writing it properly next year," he said. "We've been getting loads of ideas down. We think it might have quite an electronic feel.

"Normally we need total time out from touring to sit down and reflect but this time round it feels different. We're buzzing at the moment.

Ah, I've no worries. They like to keed, this MUSE. Last time they said they'd make a very "The Strokes" sounding album and we got things like "Take A Bow". Oh. Wait. Hmmm, I think I do indeed need to be slightly alarmed...
