If you’re an experiencer of ASMR, then you could do worse than have a good listen to Your Love by the Aston Shuffle.

Y’ha-nthlei is Deeper than they know…
The festive season is definitely upon us – I can’t get It’s Beginning to look a lot like Fishmen out of my head.
Still, I suppose it’s better than getting earwormed by the original version…
Thoughts for the Day
1: People who can’t tell the difference between ‘balmy’ and ‘barmy’ should be shot.
2: Kim Deal’s vocals on Here Comes Your Man remind me of the high school sweetheart I never had.
3: The government’s new National Broadband Network ads look like the containment grid’s broken down again.
That is all
Kullervo it Ain’t
Been dividing my time between feeling horribly run down and depressed, and building my knight titan (it’s actually starting to look pretty good). Neither are leaving much time for blogging.
But hey, worse things happen in Finland…
(It’s probably sad that I immediately identified this… thing… as being Finnish from the shots of the Sibelius Monument).
God Bless You Akismet
Over the last few months, the Wyrmlog has been getting more and more comment spam. I’ve been deleting it as it comes in, but when I got up yesterday to find 83 c0mments, all linking off to cialis and (for some reason) designer shoe sites, I decided enough was enough, and signed up to Akismet.
From the moment I activated it, not one spam has come through. God bless you Akismet!
(I’m assuming of course that legitimate comments are still getting through – haven’t had one yet to see…)
On another subject, Blondie released possibly the greatest song in rock-pop history back in 1999 and I’ve only just been informed? Inconceivable!
I Bleed
Having the kind of anxiety and depression riddled day where simply being conscious hurts.
There’s only one solution. The Pixies.
There. That’s a bit better.
Meanwhile, In Essex
It’s a bright, clear, late-spring/early-summer type day in Perth. So even though I’m stuck in the office, I thought some bright, clear, late-spring/early-summer type music was in order. So, enjoy!
Election Day, Say Hooray
Do all your shopping at Walmart!
Well, today’s the US Election, when we’ll see if the leadership of the free world (TM) is seized by the evil usurper Romney, or retained by the evil incumbent Obama.
(Personally I’m hoping for the evil incumbent)
For those needing a refresher on their Presidents, here’s Jonathon Coulton’s wonderful song on the matter…
(Note that this is the original 2005 version that doesn’t include Obama or the correct year of Garfield’s assassination)
Let freedom ring people!
Yeehaw!
I can’t decide if this is genius, or insanity…
…in any case, the world is a more… let’s say “interesting” place for its existence.
Down at the Blobby Landing
It’s Meeeeee!! Floppyyyyyyyyy!!!!
I can’t believe that for years I’ve been confusing Mr Blobby and Mr Floppy.
No wonder I could never find his cover of Reckless.
(Although for the record his Wuthering Heights is far superior…)
