SAD SONGS, WEIRD VIDEOS, GREAT LYRICS

Some things ... Some things are just plain weird. Like the lyrics of Glenn Tilbrook's song The Genitalia of a Fool. Or like somebody creating a YouTube video to the song, only using footage of Johnny Depp - which, as far as I can gather from the World Weird Web, likes the music of Tilbrook and Squeeze.

Anyway, try not to watch the video, while you listen to this great example of Very Sad Country Music. You may keep your eyes on the lyrics instead. They are below.





The Genitalia of a Fool

Everybody's got a hobby
Everybody's got a schtick
Please consider me eccentric
Don't think of me as sick

Didn't mean to spoil your party
I didn't mean to be uncool
But I'm standing here holding
The genitalia of a fool

'Cause I thought if I exposed myself
You'd fall in love with me
But when I burst in
To my chagrin
You had company

I'm afraid I've shown your family
the wrong kind of family jewels
'Cause I'm standing here holding
the genitalia of a fool

Well I guess the show is over
so I'll just go on home
I'll pack my prize possession
it's the nicest thing I own

Didn't mean to scare the children
or make your grandma drool
but I'm standing here holding
the genitalia of a fool

And I pray that you'll forgive me
and try to understand
But I'm afraid you'll always picture me
with my whole world in my hands

And I'll go through life just wondering
how fate could be so cruel
Left me standing here holding
the genitalia of a fool

Now I wish that you were holding,
the genitalia of this fool

OH GOD, THEY ARE COMING!

In A house at Furuset, the Panda Army waits, sleeping, dreaming of the Holocaust to come, when they awake from their slumber to create PANDAMONIUM!

THE OTHERS

Shot in the middle of the day. Most of the effect created in the camera, a little extra kick added in Photoshop.

THE BONES

Heavily photoshopped, but nothing removed or added. The bones of something ancient. Or something entirely else.

IN HIS HOUSE IN RUSSIA, DEAD CTHULHU WAITS ...

In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming. As everyone knows. And in dark and dreadful places on this earth his followers gather to hail His Dreadfulness. And await their horrible destiny.

But what happens to those places when their destiny (*munch, munch ... burp*) is fulfilled?

They remain. Abandoned. Awaiting discovery.

And now one has been discovered -- deep in the wilderness that is rural Russia. See more pictures of it -- if you dare venture into the realms of insanity from which no man returns untouched.

The Shadydologist

Some web-services are more ... useful than others. There are, for instance, URL shorteners galore. And they are handy enough. But what the world really needed was ShadyURL, the service that changes your innocent URL to something more ... shady looking. You may revisit me at http://5z8.info/orgy.avi_l7s1e_worm.exe.

THE LOST BOY

Once upon a time - in 1987 - The Dodologist saw The Lost Boys. Three times. In a week. I'm not saying it made me the vampirologist that I am, but it is no less true because of that.

So the news of Corey Haim's death yesterday was ... well, not a shock, but a reason to be a bit sentimental:





And of course there is Sam's (Haim's that is) most memorable quote:

Look at your reflection in the mirror. You're a creature of the night Michael, just like out of a comic book! You're a vampire Michael! My own brother, a goddamn, shit-sucking vampire. You wait 'till mom finds out, buddy!

Lost boy, indeed.

THE HERO ACCORDING TO AYN RAND

It seems like it will be a good day for one of The Dodologist's favourite sports: Ayn Rand bashing. First themostvenerable Lord Bassington-Bassington shared this little gem (it has been traced back til the Kung Fu Monkey):

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Then Libraryman - the worlds second coolest librarian (he doesn't say "oook" quite often enough to top the list) - shared this article by the novelist Michael Prescott on Rand's hero, the not at all venerable William Edward Hickman. Read it. But not while you're eating.

IF YOU HAVE NEVER FELT EXISTENTIAL PAIN, TRY THIS

Some Norwegian musician won a price today. It's a fitting time to remind the world of his greatest moment:





If you can watch it all the way through without your brain going to jelly, you probably live in a nice, padded room already ...
