So you're visiting friends, you wake up in the morning, and their dog has climbed up on the bed to say "Good Morning"...

How to make my favourite Monty Python song even better than it was.

The fellow who gets run down is Professor Brian Cox, OBE - who nitpicked the lyrics and re-wrote the song with Eric Idle (this is the original version). He is also a former pop star. The re-written version was used in a BBC science programme he hosted.

Well, it either scares you out of several years' growth, or it scares you to death and right into your next incarnation. Either way, you end up younger than you are today.

Clear evidence that travel and social visiting is rejuvenating!

There were only 3 ZIP codes in America without any Ashley Madison accounts — here they are

Even if the towns has internet access - they're so tiny that the joke about the town whose population never varied for fifty years - every time someone was born, someone had to leave town

Hangover? More like, they warned us about this when we ate those little purple pills 40 years ago. . .

I always feel like... somebody's waaatchin' meeeee...

That's every day for me because I just might be BAT-SHIT INSANE!

Also, I may have had too much soda today. And too much stress. It's a defense mechanism.

Hee, thanks. I can't say for sure where the original image came from, but the very first time I saw it was as a demotivational poster, like so:

The text for ants says: Take meds. ;)

Later, I found it after it went through the Tumblr. Linked because it's a surprisingly large image, and some questionable language. And it's Know Your Meme.

According to Gurgle, it's related to April Fools' pranks where the contents of a fridge are given googly eyes in order to scare the bejeezus out of the next unaware person who opens the door.

in case you're interested - i created that font myself. Here's a PDF of the Windows sample page, and here's a ZIP file of the font itself - feel free to use it or redistribute. I keep meaning to go back and add the missing glyphs (like periods? Seriously, mike...) But i haven't yet.
