Friday Ephemera
Two Irishmen and a couch. // As endorsed by Doris Day. // This is one of these. // Tongue caught in a mousetrap. // Multi-tool of note. // Moscow from above. // Whale-shaped shipwreck sculptures of note. // Niche appetite advertised. He wants to be breathless and sweaty. // Chocolate-coated licorice. It’s not for everyone. // Fractal jigsaw puzzle. Endless fun. // Surfing in Tahiti. // Trump Donald. // Cooking with gas at 90 million degrees. // In cinemas again. // It’s all gone a bit Hieronymus Bosch. // Impress your guests with an ice ball cocktail. // He plays with his better than you do. // At last, a zero-gravity pop video. // Accelerated thunderstorm. // River caves, Laos. // Kites. // And finally, educationally, if you’re unfamiliar with the word Vajankle, all is explained here.
Impress your guests with an ice ball cocktail.
Not too fussed about cocktails, but verily yon gentleman offendeth not mine eye.
If we were to rank all the human technological achievements for, oh say, the last 5000 years, where would we place the Vajankle?

. . . . Weeellll . . there was the time I and other associates were having a discussion by mailing list . . . and one afternoon one of us announced to everyone else that if she had to deal with just one more coworker coming up to her with the most surreally idiotic questions, again, she was going to rampage through the office with farming implements.
Always willing to be helpful, I posted recommendations.
. . . after a bit the reply came back that she wasn’t entirely certain that the hallways would fit such farming implements . . .

I don’t think “explained” is the right word.

I’m pressing UNSEE but nothing is happening.

Hey, I’m bringing you the wonders of the world.

Can the Vajarmpit be far behind?
At last, a zero-gravity pop video.
That’s actually brilliant.
That’s actually brilliant.
It is rather wonderful. I love the flight attendants.
There’s an official FAQ here.
At last, a zero-gravity pop video.
That’s put me in such a good mood. 🙂

Stop that at once. Don’t make me fetch the hose.
There was a zero-gravity porn movie made a few years ago.

And as I type this someone will be Googling “zero-gravity porn.” God bless the 21st century.
As you can imagine, it was quite an effort to make, as I understand the planes can only manage about 40 seconds dive and then have to level and fly all the way back up again, which takes minutes at least. So the editor will have a damn tricky job pasting that together for continuity, and the performers, presumably, must have sublime levels of self-control…

At first I thought they were for amputees. I was very confused.
I was very confused.
It’s easily done.
“Two Irishmen and a couch.”
Drunken Irishmen? The Federal Bureau of Insensitive Stereotypes and Felonious Triggering will be paying you a visit. 🙂
Drunken Irishmen?
As the say in Dublin, “Tuesday.”
Drunken Irishmen…
Channeling Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men: “Is there any other kind?”

And even more things I didn’t even realise existed, nevermind there being a market for it
Behold the Balloon knot…

“Two Irishmen and a couch”
to say nothing of the poteen.
Two Irishmen and a couch…
…walked into a bar. And stayed there for a long time.
I love how the balloon knot is marketed as a ‘modesty cover’. It’s a bit late for modesty by this stage.
Bye bye Indie.

Vajankle.
Thanks.
It can’t be mere coincidence that our host’s initials are DT.

From “John Galt” in the comments:
The possibility that a similar fate awaits The Grauniad gives me a schadenboner.
Ha! =^D
Mr Sherman,
“If we were to rank all the human technological achievements for, oh say, the last 5000 years, where would we place the Vajankle?”
Mr Sherman, you fail to understand. All human technological achievements for the last 5000 years was FOR Vajankle.
For “the” Vajankle.
Would you kindly fix David once you’ve finished with your Vajankle?
Ta.
I have no intention of fixing David. He’s fine just as he is.
Bye bye Indie.
What?
According to the IMF supporting the guardian is just about the per capita income of your average peasant in Malawi (MEAN average).
Shouldn’t the Guardian have a campaign to have that money donated there?
Fair trade of course.

It turns out that the Guardian’s Nell Frizzell is still terribly unhappy about Top Gear.
All human technological achievements for the last 5000 years was FOR Vajankle.
The frightening thought is that you may be right.
Oh my. This is SURE to end well. Oh yes.
Barry simply has no clue.
What?
Epistolary narcissism, that’s what!

Or does it? 😉

Well, “Vajankle” has ruined this song for me forever:

I hope you’re proud, David, I hope you’re proud.
