It’s still repulsive

Apparently there’s a resurgence of 80’s “style” going on. Some broken mind somewhere decided it’d be fun to make the 80s happen again. I was out earning boyfriend-points with Emily on sunday while she was clothes shopping, and some of the stuff that was on the racks there was pretty dreadful. Below is an example (clicky for larger):

Yes… Jeans with day-glow tips. Who decided that’d be a good idea? Also on the plate were: pants with stirrups, oversized trashbag sweaters, and black stonewashed jeans (I guess these never really completely disappeared, but they were at stores other than hot topic). I don’t think anyone wants to remember how they dressed in the 80s. Perhaps it’s novel to some people that were born in the 90s… but dammit learn from the mistakes of those before you!

The stairway of the condo I live in has been in need of a little decoration for a while. In a moment of genius, my roommate Matt commissioned a mural of Red Robot. It took the artist a while to get it done, but it’s pretty awesome. Matt and his new staircase:

Most people relatively familiar with the internets will recognize it right away. The rest… well… probably don’t read my blog. And I have it on good authority that they’ll be among the first to perish when Red Robot starts dominating.

From story:
“In each pant leg, according to a release issued by the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service, the man was concealing a live pigeon tucked into his tights. He was also wearing a money belt which contained plant seeds, and carrying an eggplant in his baggage”full story

I can’t even begin to wonder what went on in this guy’s head that led to “hey, that sounds like a good idea”
