The History of Mankind by Milo Manara



Sex and violence - two great tastes that taste great together. Viewable in different form here.

Randomly connected: Michael Bay's keyboard.

Also... no, that's all I have.

More Post-it Art: The Last Mayor of Falun


The term "Post-it" and the canary yellow color are trademarks of 3M. Accepted generic terms for competitors include "sticky notes" or "repositionable notes" or "repositional notes."

Moko came to visit the SUPERBLOG!! offices in Falun a while back. I was telling him all about the history of Falun, all the corrupt city officials and stuff, and the town's peculiar mayoral tradition. The position of mayor was finally eliminated in 1997, but up until then they held great power in all of the Dales. Mayors were expected to wear the Key to the City around their necks at all times, even while taking a shower. Their main tasks included collecting local taxes, often personally, and attending important ceremonies, such as public executions (before they were outlawed in 1990, when the Wall fell).

Moko was very impressed with all this, and artistic that he is (not autistic, although he might be that as well), he took one of my Post-it notes and sat down and started to draw the picture above. I was immediately angered by this, because Post-it notes aren't cheap, and it looked like he was just vandalizing them for no good reason.
"What the hell are you doing?!", I shouted. "Stop immediately!"
He put down his pen and handed over the artwork. It was almost finished anyway.
"I drew this for you", he said, hesitantly. "I was so inspired by your great story. Is this anything like what the mayors used to look like?"
"No", I said, trying to let him down gently. "You're a terrible artist".

Elevated Part 1 and also Part 2

This happens to me every time I ride an elevator. It's a short film directed by Vincenzo Natali, not to be confused with Natalie Portman. Natali is the guy who did Cube, which I liked (and some other films which I didn't like as much). Natalie Portman is someone else.

The lesson is as important today as it was back in 1996: BE CAREFUL ON THE ELEVATOR BECAUSE YOU WILL DIE.

I Own the Original of This


Maybe I'll be a millionaire one day. Then I'll spit down, just like I do now.

KoalaCam #45: Prisoners of the Basket!


When children are good, they are rewarded with candy and Pingu DVDs. When children are bad, they are placed in baskets, photographed, and turned into Internet amusements. It's the law of the jungle.

(For added punishment, play them some Britney.)

KoalaCam #44: Five Great Movies!


My local Walmart (or Swedish equivalent) has plenty of DVDs to choose from. There's American Pie 2, and also American Pie: The Wedding. And if you don't like either of those, there's American Pie Presents Band Camp and yes, even American Pie Presents Beta House! Oh, and if, for some reason, you don't like American Pie at all, there's United 93. But who doesn't like American Pie!!

Cheeseburger, cheeseburger, cheeseburger, cheeseburger, cheeseburger.
