Perhaps it’s a bit early for Christmas-related posts, but this can’t wait: it’s Lore Sjoberg’s musical project, Nine Inch Noels, which takes selected Nine Inch Nails lyrics and sets them to a medley of Christmas tunes:
One of the best things about this photo is its filename — Paris Hilton v. Britney Spears:
“Outta the way, fatty!”

In the previous post, I included a YouTube video of the infamous “Where’s my money?” scene from Family Guy in which Stewie beats up Brian for not paying back a debt.
So where was Stewie’s money? Why did Brian owe him money?
The scene is from the episode Patriot Games — the episode in which Peter joins the New England Patriots (and later gets kicked off the team and sent to join the London Silly Nannies).
In the episode’s other story, Stewie becomes a sports bookie. Brian uses his services to place a wager and loses $50 betting that Mike Tyson will beat Carol Channing in Celebrity Boxing. Brian takes his own sweet time paying the bet, and the savage beating ensues.
While doing a search on YouTube for the scene, I found a number of versions in which anime fans took the dialogue and matched it with scenes from their favourite series.
Here are two in which the dialogue is matched with scenes from Naruto:
In this video, the “Where’s my money” scene gets the Dragon Ball Z treatment:
And here’s the Inuyasha version:

Big things are afoot ’round my way, so I’m a bit too busy for any substantial blogging today. In lieu of a meaty entry, how about some amusing photos?
This will not end well.

Webcomic artist Shaenon Garrity came across an old Boston Globe article about macabre comic artist Edward Gorey. The first paragraph read:
Edward Gorey watched television for the first time this summer, or so he claims, and in the process the 52-year-old artist became a “Star Trek” fan. He watched the science-fiction program reruns twice a day, five days a week and once on the sixth day, and despite this faithful viewing he has yet to see the TV show’s most famous episode, “The Trouble with Tribbles”, which is about these furry creatures in outer space, or so he says.
Inspired by that paragraph, she created this interpretation of The Trouble with Tribbles in Gorey’s style:
