Manga, 70% straight – or something like that…

On the Blogwiese (German) there are already a great many manga avatar images, I really had to join in:

FaceYourManga

Created with FaceYourManga.


And while we’re already playing around, we’ll also take the “Gay-O-Meter” test of Channel 4, who apparently consider a 5 pixel high text sufficiently readable:
Mini-Text
…and find out that, like Nadine and Nerdcore where I found that, I’m also 30% gay:
30% gay

Aha.

I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am

Phil Collins, "In The Air Tonight"

Happy Pi Day!

Today is Pi Day – thanks to the American notation of 3/14 for today’s date. :) Also it’s Albert Einstein‘s birthday, he would be 129 years old today.

Link tips:

He does love his numbers
And they run, they run, they run him
In a great big circle

Blot art

Pollock Kunst

Via Julia, I found the Pollock generator with which you can play and blot artistically – playfully create blot art – blotting create play art… well, something like that. :)

Just move the cursor above the (Flash) page – click to change the color, press the space bar to clean the canvas. And if you want to know what Jackson Pollock himself has painted, see the image search.

I then created two pieces of art my self (click to enlarge) – anyone wants to buy them? :mrgreen:

Pollock Gen 1
“The carnival gene #1″

Pollock Gen 2
“The carnival gene #2″

Into a spot
Where no ink or an ink-blot
Was on a scroll
I just wrote me a new 'mot'

De La Soul, "Potholes In My Lawn"

Rubbing ideas for me

Ideas rub you properly
Properly and sportive
Well, ideas
Ideas for me
You rub not the misery
But the snake rubs you
You ideas, you sportive ones
Ideas for me, ideas mighty and beautiful

:lol2:

Huh?

Since I couldn’t come up with something better, I just used the German poem generator Poetron (homepage), which I had just discovered, entered the German equivalents to “me”, “idea” and “uninspired” (which wasn’t used), and the very first (honestly!), erm, poem it gave me was what I then translated pretty much verbatim above…

:hammer:

The dreamer and the wine
Poet without a rhyme

Nightwish, "The Poet And The Pendulum"

The latest headlines

lustige Zeitung

Created with the newspaper generator from Onlinewahn.de (German) – main headlines and picture as well as newspaper name editable, the rest is theirs, added randomly (they also offer ID cards and coins).

Translation:

Run out of ideas?
Expert tip: DON’T KEEP YOUR HEAD BURIED IN THE SAND!

Newspaper name: Yawn
The other headlines: Nyu spallin rivorm — No power to drugs! Extraordinary tax on Smarties planned — World record in amok running! — New Pisa study: tree nursery leading — DJ Toilet Seat wins election — Pope condemns puffed rice

Half the people read the papers
Read them good and well
Pretty people, nervous people
People have got to sell
News you have to sell
