Animal Crossing City Folk : Coelacanth (YouTube via Cartoon Brew)
Somebody who is not us catching a coelacanth and repeatedly mispronouncing it.

Judge Rules for 20th Century Fox in Watchmen case (Superhero Hype)
Shock of judge's decision ran along my arm. Potential for movie delay spattered on chest, like hot faucet. It was WB who said "Movie" then, muffled under legal distribution rights. It was WB who closed his eyes. It was 20th Century Fox who opened them again.
Scawy Bunny Wabbit (Brand New)
A logo design horror story. Hilarious. This site also deservedly skewered the ghastly WGN America logo.
