An automated novelty Twitter account called Every Smiths Song Slaps, that tweets once a day about a Smiths song, in chronological order of their release (no duplicates, covers, or live versions), from

"Hand In Glove" slaps

to

"I Keep Mine Hidden" slaps

Scratch that, "I Keep Mine Hidden" was the last one recorded, but not the last one released. The last post would be

"I Won't Share You" slaps

Glad we got that cleared up.

Okay, so imagine a Mad Magazine parody, yeah? Inbanana Jones and the Temple of Goons, for instance. Where the jokes are basically just swapping out words with other funny-sounding words or sardonic references to the work being parodied. Now imagine the relative incoherence of a Mad Magazine parody of a movie that doesn't even exist. My terrible idea? Making a film adaptation of that theoretical Mad Magazine parody of a nonexistent film. I'll be posting a link to the GoFundMe soon.

Mad Magazine parodies “The Inkal” directed by McOlas Dingding Rofl

Someday I'm gonna have to share the Mad-esque parodies I drew as a kid. I'm still fairly impressed with how Roboslop turned out.

Wait no it’s “The Tincal” based on the really long comic book by Alibaba Jabroni and Duebius

the theme to "Inspector Gadget" as a jazz tune

silby, have you heard of ska

mh, Tuesday, 3 April 2018 20:24 (six years ago) link

just the other day I was eating breakfast to the sound of some inexplicable ska cover of something, can't remember what now

anyway I don't play jazz but if I did it'd definitely be all obnoxious shit like that, or Mario music

can someone post it?

The first half of the underground theme from Super Mario Bros is a ringer for Miles Davis's track "Calypso Frelimo". When the underground theme re-appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3, its rhythm was modified slightly.

Get into the BDSM scene. Become a "dom," with my secret ulterior motive of just having others do my housework for me. Fuck I hate ironing.

a musical about rajneeshpuram using the slightly modified music of the smashing pumpkins. the bhagwan would sing "For Sheela" with the small edit:

If you have to leave rajneeshpuram
If you have to leave don't you cry
If you have to leave I will get by
Someday I'll follow you and see you on the other side

"To Sheila" only requires editing one letter and would be sung by ma shanti b.

Today I decided to register theliteraldemocrats.org and make a parody website making fun of the new centrist party idea, then I thought about how it would take me a week to put together and I have perhaps 45 minutes free for the project and I have never written any comedy let alone a whole website

wrinkle: the filter is called "With You Always" and once you add it you cannot remove it.

I feel like the dom who makes people clean has to be a thing. Everything is a thing for someone right and that seems like it could be popular.

I'd bet subs would do a shitty job of cleaning just to get punished some more though.

pplains, Thursday, 19 April 2018 13:17 (six years ago) link

there are diff arrangements. my friend has gotten her cleaning done this way before and definitely not involving "punishment" etc. some people really just want to be told to do the dishes and to be told they did a good job at it, and to get the fuck out when they're done.

Where are these people? I need these people.

Also, I found out recently that financial domination is a thing. Men hire ppl to spend their money. Wut. Clearly I am in the wrong line of work (and not at all suited to bossing anyone around but that's another story).

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Thursday, 19 April 2018 19:41 (six years ago) link

how did you... just find out about this?

pretty sure this has been a plot on several ridiculous tv shows already

mh, Thursday, 19 April 2018 21:00 (six years ago) link

a television show called Carlsbad Medium about a man who lives among us in this physical world, but he can also make contact with a higher plane of existence through the application of medium salsa to various unexpected lunch foods. it would be on food network.

yeah fwiw my sense, again going off friends, is that both findom and whatever the word is for chore service can be real work. my one friend says it's been ages since she tried to find someone to come clean her house because it's a hassle when you don't already have it established with somebody.... you have to put in some labor into your dialogue/appearance/vibe/improv/tone/whatever. if someone's actually coming to your house and doing chores and you want both parties to leave feeling like this was a good transaction, you need to negotiate that, you need to confirm there's a real overlap in what you want this to look like, weed to filter out ppl who are looking for more than that (or, if you're looking for more than that you need to articulate that and find ppl on your same wavelength).... if you're humiliating ppl for money on the phone/internet that can be a ton of work, cultivating clients, keeping them interested in you specifically by consciously customizing your performative disinterest around their particular fantasies... plus it has a lot of the practical and psychological challenges of phone sex and suchforth.... idk it isn't really as simple and stress free as it might sound at first blush. apparently a fantastic line of work for some people, obv.

the Gumbo Roux Authenticator, a phone app that uses the camera to tell you if your roux is dark enough for authentic, new orleans gumbo. the process would be similar to that used for depositing a check with your phone. you hold the camera above the cooking roux, and the app tells you things like "move closer" and "remove objects from picture" until it eventually, after some struggle, takes an acceptable picture. no matter what, the app will then display a screen that says "YOU BURNED THE ROUX. WHY DID YOU STOP STIRRING?" while playing the first 18 seconds of "mama roux" on loop.

there was an iso houseboy ad that ran on the slc craigslist men seeking men page for years. doing house chores for some dweeb in sandy naked. the headline was "are you a sexyboy looking for xtrafunds?" or something like that. anyway, that's my cool story.
