I've been reading House of Leaves and loving it to bits, both the plot and the form. You can read it pretty much straight through if you'd like and I think it would still be excellent, but I'm really enjoying trying to decipher everything and find hidden messages. If you'd rather find out this stuff for yourself, ( skip this cut ).
I also love this: #adamincognito. The basic gist is that Adam Savage from Mythbusters attended ComicCon today in full costume and no one managed to figure out it was him. He's been giving hints as to what he's dressed as, and he'll be doing it again tomorrow to give everyone another chance. I'm betting he's a Rorschach. We'll find out tomorrow, I suppose.
One of the best things about becoming obsessed with Boosh (in my eyes, at least) is that I've gained a lot of confidence when it comes to fashion. I figure, if Noel can wear all those crazy clothes well and with pride, why can't I? Being a girl, I should have it even easier than him! So. Yeah. It's led to me looking at sites like this one a lot (which happens to have a companion cosplay site that includes this dress. Fuck. YES.). The blouses! They call to me! I figure I'll either save so I can buy custom fitted ones that'll last a long time or work on my sewing skills until I can fabricate such goodies with my own hands. Then maybe I could develop the necessary construction chops to make vests and jackets as well. The possibilities are endless, I say! Endless!
Speaking of Booooosh, I am SUCH a happy fangirl. While I'm at it, these two older interviews are also excellent, and whether you're a Boosh fan or not, Sweet is always worth a watch. Earlier today, I was musing on the presence of slashy hints in everything Julian and Noel do together. Jaime tried to present Nathan Barley as a counter-example, but I went into full-on slash goggles mode and cited evidence. He actually said, "Yeah, I guess you're right about that." For the record, there is one exception that has no shipping fodder I can find - AD/BC. (Un)natural Acts is a bit on the sparse side as well, but there are a couple fonts of love that keep it from being barren.
Can you tell how much joy those guys bring me? The funny and the love, it's all delicious. Mmm.
Jaime and I caught up on Bullshit! tonight. The Mayan calendar episode felt like it was spooled right out of our conjoined mind, so needless to say, we greatly enjoyed it. The lie detectors one was excellent as well. I now know a trick to beat a lie detector. Not sure when that'll come in handy, and I'm kind of hoping I never have the chance to test it, but I do know. So I got that goin' for me, which is nice. Aaaaanyway, after the episode ended, I proceeded to grill Jaime polygraph-style on his past "encounters". ( It got weird ).
