We all love a good Venn once in awhile.

A long exposure shot of a Roomba cleaning your carpet.  Lights were off and the shot was taken over 30 minutes.  Showing the randomness and the precision.

Your childhood explained.

Sorry I know a lot of YaChube.  But who doesn’t want to see Tom Hanks on the BBC do the rap from my favourite kid movie and your favourite kid movie.  Cough BIG!

Triscuits?  No no.  Euhhh… biscuits.  I would prefer biscuits too Tom.  Or should I say Hank Toms.  Want to come over for some whiskey and you can share some more Hollywood Seeeeeeeeecrets?  <==== p.s. watch that link.

Science populaire plus.

You’ve probably seen this guy, maybe even read his book.  Just like Psych 101 – who isn’t fascinated with the basic but massively complex processes of our mind?

Here  is Jonah Lehrer on your new boyfriend’s show, Q.  Author of “How We Decide”, regular on Colbert, and a quasi-opponent to Malcolm Gladwell’s Blink thoughts.  He prefers “meta-cognition”, thinking about your thinking.  AKA self-awareness, againnnnnnnnn you guys.  DFW comes back into your brain. There’s even a Blink movie in production right now.   It was either that or Dukes of Hazzard 5, both showing equal amounts of desperation in Hollywood filmmaking.  Kudos to Videogum.

Here he is on your new boyfriend’s show, Q.

The last time you let down.

I bet it’s been awhile, you really need to remember this one though and let it sink like mercury in thine iron lungs.  Yes it’s late 90s and paranoid and pissed and cerebral and ethereal and becoming more aware of the world and just so disappointed.  But 10 Schrutebucks says you forgot how bloody beautiful this song was.  The syncopation in the lead parts are literally undoable by most players, Ed O’Brien gets no respect.  And when was the last time you saw Phil Selway actually slam with sticks other than thin jazz juliennes?

It’s always a good idea to see Thom and boys in what is arguably their gold plated diapers era.  It’s also kind of funny to see our man just so pissed at everything.  Cool off those beans, man.  You can be happy if you choose and be consciously ignorant.  We believe you, and that’s why we love it.  I love it because I sing harmony to the whole song and just like harmony does, it puts you on stage, in their ear, and them in yours.  And you hope that when you sing it just right he will turn his head slightly with his mouth still on the mic and grin ever so slightly and close his eyes and then you both go under together.
