“This isn’t science fiction, really,” Mr. Meirelles insisted. “It’s a metaphor.”

Love love love. I want that Robotnick remix, anybody have it?

It's cute, then it's a little scary, then it's funny, then it's COMPLETELY AMAZING. Also I like to pretend that the kid edited and sequenced the whole thing, like she's part Skynet or something.

Hmm, anything about giant wasps and a handsome devil who travels in a blue police box?

I'm not gonna lie, I enjoy a good Bernanke joke now and again. I sorta miss commuting, I don't get my alone time with Marketplace on NPR anymore.

I've listened to this about 70 times since yesterday afternoon. The hook alone is worth a million bucks (and a soul or five), but in classic Xenomania style they also threw in multiple breaks, an unexpected key change (WUT!), AND a proper ending (at a part in the chorus that goes "starting to fade...starting to fade..." lulz). I also love that they did a 60s nod right at the time everybody said "60s nods are dunzo".
The bassline and drums (not to mention the little guitar bits during the Kimba break) remind me a lot of St. Etienne's Good Humor album, curiously enough. I could talk about this all day. Maybe I will.
This has officially ruined last Friday AND today for me. Bleh. I need to break my habit of PDFing stuff in phpMyAdmin or I'm going to lose my mind.

Dorie, you have let me down. These blondies, while unquestionably the most delicious I have ever made, were a total mess--sunken, crumbly, uneven, and strangely stratified. Now I'll have to eat them all myself, grumble grumble.

1. Watching this at work has turned out to be waaaaaaaaaaaaaay inappropriate. 2. Why do the vampires have pointy incisors instead of cuspids? It's weird. 3. Excellent, something new for Jacob to, uh, sink his teeth into. Shit. Can't believe I wrote that.
