Link dump

New feature! Weekly random links. On a Saturday night. Because I’m that confident my in hipness. Also, I’m watching Cops. Somebody send the Wahhmbulance.

Hulk’s Diary That is on the Internet

There was not enough snow for Hulk to shovel and make extra pocket money so he can buy presents for his friends like the man at the donut place that makes sure Hulk has an extra big coffee and Captain America who is a very nice person except when he is all bossy and that makes Hulk sad.

If Hulk could feel strong and brave about doing it, Hulk would make a computer frowny face like this 😦 but Hulk can not.

I’m sure most of you have read this and have made a decision about it, and at first, it does seem like a one note joke. But it honestly makes me laugh everytime I read it. This guy is so clever. The writer. Who probably isn’t actually the Hulk. Probably.

Jigsaw Comic Shop, in NYC

Jigsaw is seriously the best comic shop ever, possibly because the guy who runs it isn’t a total dick and he obviously loves not only comics, but people who read comics. Or, at any rate, tolerates them when they’re not social idiots and/or total dicks. I’m mentioning it because these next few months will be your last to check it out, as he’s moving the store down to North Carolina. Unless you live in North Carolina.  In which case in a few months you will be able to check it out.

Right now, there’s an exhibit on of Molly Crabapple‘s work, which is something you should see for yourself. I haven’t decided if I like it or not, but it makes you think, which I much prefer to work that is merely likeable.

lib.rario.us

It’s like del.icio.us, only made for all of us afflicted with the brand of ocd that makes us want to catalogue every piece of media we own. No, for serious. It’s already taken off, and you can see fanboys have already started frantically cataloguing their collections by the huge BATMAN tag that shows up on the main page. The only reason why I haven’t started is because my long boxes with the ‘a’s of my collection is hidden behind about 50 pounds of laundry that I have yet to fold and put away.

And now I’m actually going to attempt to do something productive. Or at least change out of my pajamas.

Also, a No-Prize for someone who can come up with a better name for a weekly feature than “link dump” which seems so very uncouth. And I am a lady and a delicate flower.
