the blog quebecois

This is pretty funny. Link courtesy of Spoons.

(Sort of work-safe: You need to hear it, and you'll want to crank up the volume and pogo-dance around the room with the thrilling "Song of Trogdor" or whatever it's called.)

"Cute"? This blog doesn't do "cute". In fact this blog denounces "cute," such as this,
which this blog meant to denounce last week, but forgot, because this blog was busy stomping on little bunny rabbits or something.

Warning: "Cute" music.

gnotalex cannot come to the blog right now. At the beep, please leave your name and number and gnotalex will get back to you soon.

Or you could check out the amazing dancing badgers instead. More fun than a, er, barrel of badgers.

I don't know what it's about, and it soon enough collapses into standard kaleidoscopic psychedelia, but the opening scenes of this are quite beautiful, and I wish the animator had explored them more fully.

Worksafe, with a couple of caveats -- there's music and other sounds, so you might want to turn down your speaker. And I didn't watch the entire thing (it does go on for a long time), so I can't guarantee that naked midget wrestlers won't appear at some point.

If by some chance, naked midget wrestlers do appear in this, please let me know so that I can add it to my collection . . . alert the police.

Yes, so I can alert the police. That's the ticket.

Everybody and his dog has already linked to this, which is my cue for bringing it to your attention. It's a weird little flash piece showing a bikini-clad woman falling through an endless array of spheres. She's very acrobatic, possibly as a result of having no bum. If she gets stuck, you can click and drag on her to send her on her way.

It'd be neat to convert it to a screensaver, but I don't know if that's possible.

Because a day without a pointless Flash thingy is like a day without, um, a pointless Flash thingy.

Click on the small picture, then one of the floating upside-down helmets (?) to start.

It's somewhat interactive; move your cursor over the galloping horses, for example.

This sounds like a lot of work for a pointless Flash thingy; but trust me -- at the end of it you'll say, "Now that was a pointless Flash thingy."

Warning: Music.

You might find this of fleeting interest. It's in Japanese, but it recognizes the international language of point and click. Warning: Music and sfx.

Kate had this up on her site a few days ago, a so-called "screen cleaner.". Now it doesn't appear anywhere on the front page, though if you go to the original address, it still turns up. What is it that Kate is afraid to show you? It is this.
