…and 3x weekly XKCD is one of ‘em.

I Love xkcd from NoamR on Vimeo.

I’m a little late in the game here (I blogged about it in a timely fashion though) but I DVRed all the eps of Pitchmen on Discovery and I think out of all the recent celebrity deaths, Billy Mays is the saddest. I have the absolute utmost respect for people who work their way up without school (Mays cut his sales teeth on the Atlantic City boardwalk, how hardcore is that?)

It also really makes me sad when someone who’s on the precipice of something even bigger dies. With the success of Pitchmen I think that Billy could have had a super long career, and that one of the best things about Billy was his ability to make fun of himself. I saw these vids on Consumerist, and this one in particular was a real gem.

If you believe in an afterlife, you have to think this dude talked his way past St. Peter…

Last vid, I promise- on Tosh.0, Daniel Tosh attempts like, every internet challenge whilst smoking/having smoked salvia.

It makes me really happy and jealous. And driving drunk is dumb, but so is getting in strangers’ cars, chicas.

And sometimes cab drivers let you smoke.

Jesus Christ, Shepherd of Judea, this is the most amazing hookah pipe I’ve ever laid eyes on. Sleek. Silvery. Grown up. Portable. A conversation piece. Tiny, manageable, and comes standard with two mouthpieces. Like for a date. A sexy date. How lovely… From the site:

But that’s not all, it also comes with an elegant and beautiful carrying bag so you can take it with you to the next dinner party you are invited to and show off your cool. In any case, here’s some tech info you might find relevant and convincing, in case the gorgeous design hasn’t won you over yet:

Body and handle of narghile in solid polished pewter, brilliant nish-Burner made of hi-tech ceramic. Pipe made of aeronautical polyamide treated with Te on.

2 mouthpieces made of culinary standard nacrine (i.e. synthetic mother-of-pearl).

Tongs for tobacco and charcoal - Carrying case.

During my extended hiatus, I got totally addicted to True Blood. Like, fixated and obsessed. And part of what’s so damn compelling about that show is merely Alexander Skarsgard. I would be on that like white on rice.

Via Loving True Blood in Dallas, the most stunning animated GIF of all time.

Jack White is as dreamy as ever, and Meg plays guitar!

I recently spent time with a young man who, when I complimented his shirt, stated proudly, “it’s from Battlestar Galactica!” Now, not all girls are as revved up as geekery as I. Which I kept to myself because, hey, geekiness is hot.

These tees address many fandoms with one basic design, and don’t out you for atomic wedgies at the mall.

Something about nerds being all revved up is kinda hot. This pinup calendar is for the fanboy in your life. (Or fangirl, if she swings that way.) With regular and *geeky* holidays. Can we get one with nerdy boys, please?
