• Robotics are freaking scary! It’s only a matter of time before we’re replaced by robots — or at least an army of Albert Einsteins with freakishly real facial expressions.
• A robot could never replace Ari Gold, though.
• Some Napoleon Dynamite fanboy used Google maps and mapped out every location from the movie.
• We need more clever marketers like these in the advertising world.
• A maxi pad is mistaken for a fetus. Looks like somebody failed Bio 101.
• Kung Fu vs. Yoga. ‘Nuff said.
• FYI: big SUV’s not allowed on the Brooklyn Bridge.
• …and the list of top 100 wikipedia searches this month.

That’s all folks! Except for the nasty weather, we had a great weekend. We hope you did too!

1. The first thing I noticed when I saw this picture is that it has a bidet. That’s awesome. Every bathroom should have a plumbing fixture that shoots jets of water up your ass. Just keep small children who may think it’s a water fountain away.
2. Towel Rack. What’s it doing all the way over here? If I’m taking a bath in the tub, where the hell am I supposed to put my towel? There’s no way I’m walking dripping wet to that towel rack a continent away. It’s even too far from the sink. The towel rack by the sink should be immediately accessible (i.e. I should be able to comfortably reach out and touch my towel). This towel rack requires like 2 extra steps.
3. Giant empty tile space. All I can think when I see this unforgiving wasteland is Brrrrr! Just imagine trekking across all that freezing tile in the middle of the night! Put down a damn rug!
4. Ok. Perhaps the perspective of the picture is a little wacky, but that tub looks way too small for an adult. And what’s with the toilet blue water? Is the bath water really that nasty? Also, I’m not sure if that’s steam or jets of water shooting out. Either way, that tub is way too small to act as a Jacuzzi. I must admit, however, that the pillow and the removable shower head are nice touches.
5. Oh right. This is an ad for a TV. Let’s put it all the way to the side of the picture and make it super small. That’ll sell our product!

Thank you for listening. I should be an interior designer.

The LATimes recently interviewed Justin Long which touched a bit on his Mac role. He states that he’s wary about people mostly recognizing him from the commercials rather than his other roles like in the TV show Ed (which i loved) or the movie Dodgeball (which i loved). Like people running into him in the streets and getting pissed at him. I gotta say, lets hope he doesnt go down the same path as the Dell Dude. But I have faith in him. He is semitalented.

As for John Hodgman, the PC guy, he’s in now in my book of cool guys. Funny guy. I’m sure he’s getting good press from it. Kinda like playing the role of the underdog.

And then there are the spoofs flooding in. Because it’s “funny”. Except 90.7% of them aren’t. Though, I’ve gotta admit, some are worth mentioning. Here’s a halo version. and here’s a wii vs ps3 one (semi-nws).

In conclusion…lets hope this internet fad fizzles sooner than later. For everyone’s sake. And before it makes me switch back to PCs.

Eat Drink Man Woman. It looks like Ella Bache Paris had a new take on that Chinese movie about food. Their new Japanese ad campaign is filled with innuendo. The new ads feature naked models resting on top of eating utensils. The caption? Skin good enough to eat. Their skin may not be the only thing good enough to eat on those utensils. The women are all appropriately covered, but I must say, it does give a new meaning to the term sushi.

Cick the thumbnail above for a slideshow of the three full-size ads. Sorry, you food pervs, there is no nudity.
