sabotabby: raccoon anarchy symbol (TARDIS by mimisoliel)

Well, it's just been an exciting day all around!

Today was, apparently, the day to get cool shit in the mail. First, when I left the house on my way to physio, there was a Doctor Who ice tray in my mailbox. It's not especially convenient for ice cubes, but my intent is to make chocolates with it because I'm awesome that way.

Nevertheless, in the meantime it also does make ice cubes, albeit really large ones, so here is Marinetti exterminating an ice Dalek:

My badass Adventure Kitty, you guys.

Here's what the TARDIS one looks like:

As if that wasn't already enough to make my day, I got yet another package in the mail in the afternoon, this one from the lovely and talented [livejournal.com profile] nihilistic_kid. He'd blogged awhile ago about the most hilarious ever Jews for Jesus pamphlet, a rare specimen of the sort I collect for the lulz, and actually sent it my way (along with a book that looks awesome).

Feast your eyes:

It's about how Jesus is more awesome than Justin Bieber. Which is really setting a low bar if you ask me, but I am probably not the target audience. Anyway! In an effort to share some of the joy, I've scanned the whole thing so that you can read it, print it, and evangelize. You're welcome!

Well since you're Jewish, you are the target audience.

They just have a really bad marketing department.

they say if you pour boiling water in those and then put them in the freezer immediately, the ice comes out clear. i have yet to try it.

So They say.

Those are silicone, right? Boiling water wouldn't damage them.

Oh…I thought he was talking about something else…never mind.

I'll be trying this as well.

What's awesome is that the set of people who are into Justin Bieber and know what "Leave It To Beaver" is is probably empty.

THE KID'S NAME WAS BEAVER. THAT'S LIKE HAVING A SITCOM CHARACTER NAMED BONER.

Well, he wasn't really named Beaver—but "Leave it to Theodore" would have had a funny ring to it.

(Yeah, I had to look it up.)

Well, it is now—but in the 50s nobody made that connection.

[identity profile] springheel-jack.livejournal.com 2013-08-27 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not completely sure of that

[identity profile] frandroid.livejournal.com 2013-08-27 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Only if "beaver" didn't mean what it currently does...

[identity profile] franklanguage.livejournal.com 2013-08-28 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you got me there

Haha, no way. That was slang since at least the 40s, maybe 30s (not sure without looking it up).

Completely different approach than the standard Chick tract, but just as irritating.

You use this kind of large ice for cocktails.

You could put blue food colouring in the police box one...

I feel that there are possibilities in the combination of Dalek ice and skull pitcher.

Literally cool.
