If It's A Severed Head, I'm Going To Be Very Upset.

Blog* I think it depends entirely on WHOSE head it is. Title is from Wayne's World.Freakangels Friday* And lo, the light shines upon us mere mortals, because there is a new week of FREAKANGELS, and Warren Ellis must never leave us without reading material, which he totally would, the sick bastard. I love his brain. And the world of FREAKANGELS, although I'd definitely be dead, so maybe not. Spoilers for this week's issue under my signature at the bottom. WILL KARL LIVE? Doctor Who* Remember when I showed that picture of all the Doctors, and said that the only thing that could make it better was Ianto serving coffee? I was wrong:Oh. My. God. I'll be in my animated bunk. Ianto Jones with a goddamn GUN? And the Ninth Doctor? Thank you, KaishaBackwards, for this glorious image. Mine eyes are blessed, and my brain is aflutter with filth.Comics* Who is going to Dragon*Con? WHO? Because I NEED TO GO. I DO. I have decided this, and the universe wants me to go, and who are you to argue with destiny? I will trade you Nine Inch Nail tickets, probably, because I can't go. Most likely. Or you could just give me tickets, because I need them in my life, for CRAP'S SAKE. I MISSED the SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON. I am a BAD fangirl.* I went to the comic store yesterday. This never ends well, because I lack any sort of self-control, at all. I bought:*
- Joe Hill & Gabriel Rodriguez* Ignition City #1 - Warren Ellis & Gianluca Pagliarani*
- Brian K. Vaughan, Pia Guerra, & Jose Marizan, Jr.* Fables: Volume 1: Legends In Exlie - Bill Willmingham, Lan Medina, Steve Leialoha, & Craig HamiltonBecause I'm writing comics (well, trying, so this is technically a work expense, right? And I can get that taken out of my taxes, yeah? And buy more comics? Also they did not have the new Warren Ellis Frankenstein comic, but I couldn't remember the name so I didn't check when it came out. Mr. Ellis is disappointed, and I will be force-fed mind-altering drugs until I learn my lesson, whatever that may be.People I Love* Bruce Campbell, high god of all, and he from whom all good and justice flows, talks about Evil Dead 4, and my organs dance with ecstasy.

GATW/ENVY TV Comic-Con Exclusive: Bruce Campbell talks EVIL DEAD 4 from Gordon and the Whale on Vimeo.

Now that Burn Notice has ended for the season, where will I get my weekly dose of badassery, win, and chin?This was sent to me by BossMew, who understands the complex innerworkings of Bruce Campbell in a way few ever will. But she won't tell me, because I'm not ready for such knowledge.Daily Hot Guy[Rainn Wilson, AKA Dwight from the American Office. Which is really great, and I am the last person on Earth to realize this. Incidentally, my friend Esse told me last night that I have a thing for men with big foreheads. Gareth David-Lloyd, Jackie Earle Haley, Hunter S. Thompson, Hugh Laurie.... I like a man with a big cranium. What that says about me, I'd rather not go into. Also, Esse actually referred to their heads as something far more obscene, but I am a lady and will not repeat such FILTH]Stuff To Live* These are utterly moronic, and yet I want them, just to say I have them. What am I babbling about? Leather band-aids:[Found at Geekologie]These have no reason to exist. None at all. Leather band-aids in no way improve upon regular plastic band-aids, and they are $18 for a three-pack, which is INSANE. And yet I want them, because how sexy and bad-ass would my mosquito bite scabs suddenly become if they were covered with leather? Answer: VERY. Plus they'd offend my father the vegan, which is inevitably amusing.Movie!Fail* I do not care the Boondock Saints II All Saints' Day is the greatest movie in the history of our time, and causes 10,000 orgasms upon watching, and brings about world peace (which obviously it can't, without Jackie Earle Haley), and is genius.It doesn't have Willem Dafoe.Ergo, I want no part in it. Movie FAIL.Zombies* AMC IS MAKING A SERIES BASED ON THE WALKING DEAD COMIC. PREPARE YOURSELVES FOR PURE, UNADULTERATED AWESOME. And Frank Darabont, of The Shawshank Redemption, is going to have a huge hand in it, and that is GLORIOUS. There is no bad here. None at all. I love AMC now. AMC FTW. I like typing that.TeeVee* Morgan Spurlock, who can live, I guess, and doesn't annoy me entirely, but annoys me enough that I try not to include him in my life, is directing the Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special. As always when something I like joins with something I dislike, I feel conflicted. Does he have any animation experience? Not animating it himself, but using it as a medium. I would have no idea what to do if told to direct a cartoon. I'd probably demand they draw the cast of Gargoyles, then giggle idiotically. I doubt HE'LL do that, but who knows? Then again, it's The Simpsons, and like pizza, even when it's bad, it's still pretty good.Journalismsee more Funny GraphsGeek Want* I loved The Hangover. So much. Great movie. So this shirt makes me laugh, and I'd like one, please:[Found at NerdApproved]It's what my life is missing. Although this may be a funnier shirt for a guy to wear. On a girl, it might just make people uncomfortable. In a bad way. New idea: Bradley Cooper IN this shirt. Much better plan. See to it.Politics* Basically no one in the GOP will say that Obama is an American citizen, because if it turned out to be false, THAT would be super-embarrassing. Unlike everything else going on in politics right now. But they won't say he ISN'T either. Stop flip-flopping like a waffle house, dammit. Pick a side. Be honest. I'll respect that. Not much, but still. You'll feel better.* The only thing I love more than Pat Buchanan (or Uncle Pat, as I would not dare to call him) is when Rachel Maddow drives him to screaming hysteria, and there is much yelling, but then someone gets him cocoa and a hot water bottle, and he tells Rachel about walking to school in the snow with no shoes on, and the world is good again.* I didn't make this, someone else did, and it's funny. And Alaska is lovely, and I hope to go there one day. Just not the part with Mrs. Palin shooting wolves:see more Political Pictures* This is funny, because it's wrong. The headline was all about ANOTHER Republican sending racist Emails, and aren't they all awful, blah blah blah. My opinion, of course, is that they are more dumb than anything, because anyone who doesn't realize that the internet keeps no secrets has never been on Facebook.Anyway, the article from NY Magazine was all, 'Haha, those racist sons of bitches, the GOP is awful! We made a slide-show because they are so awful!' which is boring and doesn't warrant any attention, and is also counter-productive to a political dialogue (says the girl who just posted something snarky about Sarah Palin, HYPOCRISY STATION).Then it turns out the guy is a Democrat, and I laugh and laugh, because everyone is awful, regardless of political party, and while that's not Change We Can Believe In, it's consistent, and consistency is important in these turbulent times. So everyone sucks, learn to use the internet, the end.Awesome* This is all Danceswithelvis' fault:Can no one stop her reign of terror? Wonderful, fishy terror?WTF, INTERNET?* I have no problem admitting I don't get Star Wars. It's fine, I have enough fandoms, and people love it, and I'm sorry that the prequels have been so vile, and that the animated movie made me want to stab out my eyes with toothpicks. I mean you no harm.As I was saying before memories of Clone Wars made me cry, I am not an expert on Star Wars. But, and correct me if I'm wrong, I don't BELIEVE that Darth Vader was a snuggly sort of dude:[Found at LikeCool]Just.... It looks like Darth Vader shrunk, and is trying to choke you to death for his height. Which would be incredibly funny to witness, but not what your backpack should say about you. The ad says it's stylish. I... No. No it is not. NOT AT ALL. Style will never involve tiny people choking you from behind.PLUS it's three feet tall. I'm only five foot. If this thing came to life in the dead of night, like Child's Play, there'd be no clear-cut winner. I don't NEED THAT.TwiHate* It's true, and that's what makes it funny.Movie!Win* 9 looks like a great movie, and I will overcome my slight fear of dolls to see it. What? Child's Play is NOT a movie you let a six-year old see. PARENTING FAIL.This movie features the voice talent of Crispin Glover, who terrifies me in a sexy, disturbing way that I'd rather not discuss in depth, because I have yet to fully understand it. And it's got Tim Burton somewhere in there, and I have yet to grow tired of his weird.Done now. Much to do. You are intrigued yes? FASCINATED? Sorry, coffee attack. I have much writing to do today. MUCH. And T-Shirts macros to finish. Comments on this weeks' FREAKANGELS below my signature.- LVSPOILERS FOR THIS WEEKS' FREAKANGELS* Ooh, is Mark around? Kait is a crazy fucking bitch. Violence WIN. Karl lived, by simple benefit of not being in the comic. Make Warren Ellis write longer comics. For me?
