Overnight Open Thread

Only six more blogging days 'till Christmas!

Coats are Required on Tonight’s ONT:

Pants and underwear? Not so much.

I swear that at one point in the song it sounds like the guys doing the background rhythm part are singing “ninja ninja ninja ninja…”

A buffet of Lame awaits you below the fold. But then, you already knew that.

P-Diddy’s Live Party Jam:

Apparently he livestreams them so you commoners can join in the fun. As with all live broadcasts, sometimes there are glitches. At least she was in quite possibly the best location a person can be when they catch on fire. (H/T Dori Monson)

Signs, Signs, Everywhere a Sign:

A series of somewhat amusing signs in the always-annoying click-through format. But it’s not as if you had any more pressing matters to take care of tonight, did you?

TRON Jeremy:

Thanks to Tmi3rd. I suppose.

My Favorite Editorial Cartoon of All Time:

A classic 1997 piece from McNelly at the Chicago Tribune, it's held a place of honor on my fridge for all these years.

Shipoopi!

For those of us unfortunate enough to live in the Seattle area (and they are legion here in the Sub-Moronocracy) our moments of happiness are few and far between. One of the few things that keep us from driving into bridge abutments at 90 mph are the Vern Fonk Insurance commercials. Such as this one:

Sadly, Vern himself passed on a few years ago but his message must be passed on to a wider audience, which I do here tonight.

Now DANCE!!!

Oh, and check out the "alternative" version of Shipoopi.

Bet you didn't see that intro. coming did you?

The 30 Most Important Cats Of 2010:

Or as the lead-in to the piece states: I know what you're saying. “Cats,” you're saying. “What have they done for me lately?” Well, this is what they've done for you lately, you ungrateful bastard.

Strong words indeed. Thanks to Maet, who's always thinking of you, even on his nights off. Because he has no life. Just like the rest of us.

Tonight’s Semi-Forgotten ‘80’s Hit That One Upon a Time Got Heavy Rotation on MTV Back When the “M” Part Actually Meant Something:

Mr. Kihn was truly a visionary. A pioneer in the ever-growing field of zombie studies and other matters relating to the Undead. And he plays a mean piece of broken pew I might add.
