Perhaps the most ridiculous animation I’ve ever seen?

Named after the song that plays in the background, Trucker’s Delight (by FLAIRS) is an homage to the little things in life that truckers enjoy… such as tits, ass, and boners. It was created with 8-bit sega-era graphics by newcomer Jérémie Périn, who proves he has a hell of a sense of humor. If 8-bit boobies don’t fly at your office, you have a shitty office, so don’t watch this:

Congratulations to our friend Joe Sabia on being gobbled up by mashable, gizmodo, techcrunch, etc., etc., etc., for his innovative “google wave cinema” videos! Surely on it’s way to viral video status. Check out his other youtube hits at Whirled Citizen.

“I’ve read the articles, watched the instructional videos, and gotten an invite, but nothing—nothing—has done more to explain to me how this mind-melting Internet Thing works than Pulp Fiction, spectacularly adapted for Google Wave. (Warning: Tarantino language ahead)” – John Herrman @gizmodo

A fucking awesome collection of lego dudes. Many more can be seen at MacLane’s Flickr (Batman, Nightcrawler, Wonderwoman, T-1000, etc.)

-John Mayer’s new song gets HATED on in the A.V. Club’s pop culture love letters: “Who says John Mayer can’t make an “introspective” video without any modicum of interesting introspection at all? Who says?”
-5 badass authors more badass than the badass characters they created

Lykke Li – Little Bit

When I found out Lykke Li is scheduled to perform at The Wiltern way back when, I got all types of hot and bothered. Strange. It was at that moment I came to the realization I had a woman crush. Damn. It felt awkward at first, and I looked around hoping none of my coworkers noticed, but then I proceeded to convince myself what I was feeling was completely natural. Firstly, she’s a sexy Swede who makes dancing like your weird Aunt Janis at Bat Mitzvah’s look good. Secondly, she writes lyrics like “I’m workin’, to make butter for my piece of bun”. Butter for your piece of bun? You can’t deny that shit. Thirdly she’s got a bevy of odd ‘instruments’ like bike chains, kazoos, strung bells and plastic clappers that she plays during her songs, she even sings through a bullhorn on occasion.  Do me a favor, vote No on Prop 8. I want to give this chick a deserving home.

Clearly, someone at ThinkGeek got April Fools Day confused with April Awesome Day, which isn’t ’til next week. They conceived of something so awesome, so enlightened, so warm-fuzzy-inducing that it could probably deliver world peace. Anyone who spends his or her childhood nestled in a TAUNTAUN SLEEPING BAG(!!!) simply would not be capable of violence. The overwhelming sense of self-satisfaction would make it impossible.

The only real trouble with all of this is, of course, that the Tauntaun sleeping bag doesn’t exist. It’s a joke. A cruel, malicious joke. Just as owning a tautaun sleeping bag could soothe the collective human soul, being taunted with one we can’t have may just push us over the edge. If anybody gets nuked in the next few weeks, it’s on ThinkGeek’s shoulders.

In an effort to quell their guilt, the suits at ThinkGeek have sworn to get in touch with the suits at Lucasfilm and try to make this thing for real. Good luck, ThinkGeek! If it ever happens, you’d be well-advised to make sure this thing comes in adult sizes so you don’t end up back in the hot seat again.
