Shaun knows more about High Fidelity than I could ever hope to in my lifetime. I see what he means about the main characters not being emulation-worthy.

Detailed Lego models of 80’s television sets. They make me want to build dioramas, but I probably won’t.

I’ve been loving the Big Picture since its inception, but this Earth Hour post in particular is outstanding. Click the pictures to watch the lights go out!

Snacks and Shit’s disembodied rap lyrics are making me laugh harder than it’s prudent to do while at work, especially since I can’t explain it to anyone who might ask. (via andre)

Good lord, this handmade tufted headboard is just awesome. I’ve been looking for good headboard ideas lately, and I think this might be the one I want to make.

That’s a movie I remember walking away feeling very irritated by. I thought all the characters were emotionally stunted, narcissistic twits. Admittedly, I’ve only seen it the one time, when it originally came out, but that’s the impression that’s lingered.

I had a mini-rant about this, but decided it might not be appropriate to blather about it here in your comments - or in Shaun’s, since it’s really beside the point of his essay - so it’s in my journal instead.
