Pick N Mix – Week Starting 25 May 2009

  • This long but perfect length interview with Christian Bale made me think he’s a bit of a wanker, a prima donna, and quite scary if you piss him off. I imagine putting yourself in the shoes of the types of characters he’s played, and the way he’s fucked with his body over the years has taken him from a weird 8 year old boy enjoying being scared in the dark of a forest, to a fucked up angry man. But somehow he managed to endear himself to me on page 9 of the interview. He realises who he is.
    Don’t forget to listen to his super rant from the set of Terminator. It’s on the intro page of the interview.
  • Life is so much more enjoyable now that I've decided I just don't give a fuck
  • Such bad taste. But I still laughed. :S
  • What goes around comes around poster campaign.
  • I find it hard to believe that a New Zealand Steiner school could have a ninja as a teacher. But it could explain some things about The boy.
  • In the beginning, man created God. I love this bus ad, it takes one or two seconds to take in what you’ve just read. And it’s powerful when you realise what it’s actually saying.
  • Pink + Black + Tophat.
  • What an amazing thoughtful gift. 52 little packets, one for each week of the year, with a little bit of cash and a note in each, for Abbey to run across the road to the little flower stand and buy herself a bouquet.
  • Some people say they really get into their board games. And I’m assuming they mean that while they’re playing the game they’re competitive and enthusiastic. But to play this game loosely based on the book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas you would really need to commit. What an amazing work of art!
  • You left your lights on and your passenger door unlocked.
  • Eternal September. As Seth says, it’s going to take a long time for the newbies to the internet catch up to everyone else, so until it does we have to assume an eternal September.
  • The liquid lamp makes for great design.
  • Help Oprah out and let her know what you would really love to see on Jenny McCarthy’s new show. Maybe seeing her getting educated by intelligent scientists and doctors each week would be fun.
  • Say it with me now. FUCK. THAT. SHIT.
In Connor's second thesis it is stated 'There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.'  Does the routine destroy our creativity or do we lose creativity and fall into the routine?  Anyway, who's up for a road trip!

    Having a friend who went to a Steiner school, and having been to one of their school balls, I find it entirely plausible that they would have a ninja for a teacher :D

    I suppose. You never really know what’s going to come out of that school. Except they’re meant to be against aggressiveness as a whole, The Boy’s school wouldn’t even let them play soccer.

    I love that letter from ‘Will’ about the car lights & door– that’s awesome, if that’s true!

    Yea, I had doubts about it to. But it’s really sweet if it’s true.
