Do you know what today is? It's Brickday.

October 15th, 2010 by

It's October 15.

That means it's Brickday.

It's Brickday.

Look, it's Brickday at West Portal Station in San Francisco.

Brickday? Yes. Or Brick Day if you like.

Here is how to celebrate this glorious holiday:

1.) On October 15, call in sick to work.
2.) Get a brick.
3.) Take the brick to a bar during the day. Ideally the Stork Club in Oakland.
4.) Set the brick gently on the bar or table.
5.) Drink.

Read the full coverage and listen to the podcast over at The M-OceanView Journal.

And make Brickday your own.

Things goin' alright? Alright.

Do y' know what today is?

Yes. That's right. It's a Fuck You Friday.

Fuck you and your blog

This apparently is a journal you can buy, illustrated by Ray Fenwick.

"Have you heard the news? The dead walk!"

August 25th, 2010 by

Repeating the opening lines of NoMeansNo's havoc-tastic song "It's Catching Up" -- indeed; the dead walk.

Uh-oh.

Here's why: writer Robert Kirkman is bringing his excellent, wrenching zombie comic book series The Walking Dead to television with the help of Shawshank Redemption director Frank Darabont.

Most excellent.

The premiere episode is slated to hit on Halloween. Set your recorder.

Better keep on movin'. And with due speed.

Here's the trailer for the series:

And for good measure, here's NoMeansNo's "It's Catching Up."

Against The Cone Of Shame.

August 20th, 2010 by

It's a Fuck You Friday.Hey, how's your day been?

Y'know what today is?

That's right, it's a Fuck You Friday.

On this day, ire must go towards The Cone Of Shame.

The Cone Of Shame.

Fuck; what a miserable creation. There're few things that feel as cuttingly bad as the bewildered look in a be-Coned pet's eyes as The Cone bluntly narrows their livelihood.

Fuck The Cone Of Shame. I hate that thing.

Yes, the Cone is fully necessary and needed -- but that doesn't mean it's likable. Fuckit.

This yawp is dedicated to Gretchen, Peppy, Bowdrie, Maria, Foxie, Daisy and anyone else who's ever worn The Cone.

OK, bye.

Bye.

"I'M GON' RACE LIKE I'M GON' FUCK!" Go-Karting, maniacal laughter, and the joy of the racetrack.

One woman in one grand prix go-kart on one racetrack.

She was Driver #6. This is her story.

The course.

***

Lap one: "Check... it... out!"

***

Interlude: Driver #6 has words for the slow drivers in front of her.

***

Lap two: "I own this bitch!"

***

Lap three: "Burnin' fucking rubber, man!"

***

Lap four: "I'M GON' RACE LIKE I'M GON' FUCK!"

Against anxiety.

July 2nd, 2010 by

It's a Fuck You Friday.Good afternoon.

D'you know what today is?

Yes, it's a Fuck You Friday.

On this Fuck You Friday, it's a fuck you towards anxiety in general.

When angst rears its head, may you be as serene as a sleeping cat.

Ester asleep.

As for you, anxiety? Fuck you. Fuck you right in the face. This is the way to be:

Ester in repose.

Neko Case will seriously pummel your fucking face in [if you fuck with Carl].

New Pornographers show - Someone throws a CD at Carl Newman and Neko Case Regulates. The girl who threw it got bounced and the CD was given to an audience member an hour later. Boston Show - 2010-06-18

I believe her.

Between this incident and the absolutely stupendously incredible Adult Swim pilot of Cheyenne Cinnamon and the Fantabulous Unicorn of Sugar Town Candy Fudge, Neko is maxing out her possible points in the humor column.

For the record: the only time I interacted with her in person, she was thoughtfully needlessly completely polite.

Trust in your dreams on this Fuck You Friday.

It's a Fuck You Friday.Hey, how are you?

Y'know what today is?

It's a Fuck You Friday.

Today for this Fuck You Friday, the fuck you will be levied at those who would look down on others who follow their hearts.

To those who would punish other people who dream their own dream -- fuck you. Fuck off and die.

To those who dare to dream -- best of luck. Keep on keeping on.

The best ever death metal band out of Denton will in time both outpace and outlive you.

"Responses to this shirt vary between 'WTF?!' and 'Hail Satan!'"

Now, in one of my favorite live performances of all time, this is The Mountain Goats playing "The Best Ever Death Metal Band In Denton" at The North Star Bar in Philadelphia on 2007/09/22.

Hold dear to your dreams. Don't listen to naysayers. And never stop dreaming.

Good luck.
