Voice in the Vent

"I Will Always Love You" is blasting in the VITV's room. At first I thought, "Come on, now, could you get any more stereotypical?"

Then I realized American Idol is on tonight.

The answer, of course, is no.

A Juxtaposition I Just Don't Get

Have anyone else noticed how detailed the animation in "South Park" has gotten over the years?

Seriously, look at the shading on the pillow and sheets here. That's very well-executed! Even how the chair off to the side is cardboard style but feels very three-dimensional is almost impressive. At the same time, the characters' faces look nearly the same as they did when "South Park" first aired. What a weird juxtaposition!

I understand that computer animation has led to vast advances in how great we can make everything look, but I guess I just don't understand why Trey Parker and Matt Stone would really care (unlike all of the explosions and stuff, which I can understand a couple of guys like that wanting to make them look really over-the-top and nuts).

We'll probably never know, but it still weirds me out.

What do you guys think?

No Wonder I'm Slightly Crazy

I was just reading the Daily Beast's 50 Most Stressful Colleges. I just started browsing through their slideshow, looking for my college, and I thought, "Well, this is going to take forever. I might as well click 'See All'." Nevermind, my college is 2nd.

The sad thing is that it doesn't surprise me at all.

Happy Easter, Voice in the Vent!

"It's Easter, today, Hallelujah!" sung by yours truly, the Voice in the Vent.

Happy Easter, Readers!

Hot Food Revolution Pockets

I just love the irony of watching "Hot Pocket Side Shot Cheeseburger" commercials in the middle of "Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution." Really tugs at the heartstrings.

Muppets Rock It Again: Bunny Style (?)

Just in time for Easter! An appropriately costumed Muppet Monster sings while munching on delicious singing buddies.

A Place to Love Dogs' Idea of April Fools'

Clearly, this is an otter pup, not a puppy pup, but it's still adorable! Also, Shira, this is for you.
