Dear Internet

So I am doing a continuation of my previous love letter to the internet. Today I am thanking it for some of the beautiful things that it has brought to my attention. Now I recently discovered, after watching How I Met Your Mother, that Marshall Eriksen and I have something in common. I give my stamp of approval too easily. This has inspired me to be more selective in my editing process of amazing things that I find on the internet.
Here goes...

Epic Rap Battles of History
These are amazing. I could just post some but instead I will let you explore them for yourself. I will however recommend the battle between Hitler and Darth Vader.


The shower thing. 
So wrong yet so very very funny. 




Okay so this of course is just Natalie Portman but these pictures from the set of Thor in London last week really make it look like Kate Middleton and Thor are new BFF's. Just imagine the future queen of England chilling with hammer-wielding god of thunder. They'd probably talk about hair products (they both have good hair), the importance of a good belt (seriously she always wears a belt, maybe she gets half her strength from it too) and how to deal with their rogue brothers (in-law in Kate's case). Oh what a beautiful friendship that would be.



This little depiction came courtesy of the aptly named HelloGiggles series Illustrated Tweet of the Day. When I liked it on Facebook, my sister comment underneath "You started at 12... which means for your 30th you'll probably look like Dumbledore". Case and point. 

Making me feel like I'm 13 again and polyphonic ringtones are all the rage. Ah, memories. 

Cheers for reading,

Jane

Too Cool For School: Game of Thrones edition

Brace yourselves lads.

Shit's about to get seriously cool.


Oh yeah. 

How. Amazing. Is. That??

I ordered this beauty on RedBubble.com which is where I will be sourcing all of my Christmas presents this year so dear family members if you're reading this, prepare yourself for some serious awesomeness. 

Also I bought stickers (because I literally am that cool), they however are coming in a separate shipping apparently so alas I have more waiting to do. Happy waiting though. Like waiting for Santa Claus.

God I need to get out more. 

Cheers for reading,

Jane

Dear Internet

Thank you for bringing the following to my attention...

The new Rebecca Black. Because apparently the original wasn't enough. Weekdays? Pfff. Holidays are the real money makers. That's why Patrice Wilson - a co-writer on the infamous "what day comes after Thursday and before Saturday" track - has penned a new tune, the ambiguously named (not) It's Thanksgiving sung by the young Nicole Westbrook.

Warning: your brain will never forgive you if you play this.

Talk about a cool cat. 

And finally, these two online stores that have recently come to my attention. The first is the amazing Redbubble which I made a little order with and have since been sitting by the door awaiting the postman (not really but I am super duper excited). I will be doing a very cool post all about the website and my order as soon as it arrives. 
The next store is the devastatingly cool McPhee which I came across while seeking out an inflatable unicorn horn for a cat (I kid you not). However McPhee doesn't deliver outside the States. Wait, do you hear that? That's the sound of my heart breaking because I cannot purchase zombie finger puppets,  bacon toothpaste, the crazy cat lady board game or the dashboard hula girl. Oh woe is me! I had done pretty much all of my christmas shopping and got to the checkout only to be told that no matter how much post and packaging I was willing to pay, I would never get my very own collection of 3 inch tall horrified B-movie victims or rubber chicken in a Santa suit. The injustice!

Well that is all for now.

Cheers for reading,

Jane
