Pajiba Love

Did you know that Ferris Bueller’s Day Off holds all of the secrets to life? Neither did I, but here it is. (Sydney Morning Herald)

They put forth a decent argument, but I still find it difficult to believe that Bambi II compares to the original. (Slate)

Gallery of the Absurd takes on everybody’s favorite orange haired sack of human excrement, who will presently go unnamed. (Gallery of the Absurd)

OK — I’ve had kinda enough of both Burger King and The Simpsons Movie viral timewasters. But I’ll be damned if this thing isn’t pretty darn uncanny. (Simpsonize Me)

Amy Winehouse will eat your eternal soul for breakfast. (IDLYITW)

Hear this lady bloggers? We’re nothing but a bunch of vicious, venomous bitches trying to soil the respectable name of George W. Bush. How dare we. (Feministing)

The Beckhams reality show tanked. In related news, my newfound respect for Posh Spice is hereby revoked. (The Blemish)

Tyra Banks isn’t just crazy. She’s “closeted lesbian predator set on world domination” crazy. (Vermillion’s Brain)

Finally, a hearty shout-out to our own Dan Carlson’s new television column for the Willamette Week Online — show him some love, Pajibans! (wweek)

Compliments of Aqua Teen Hunger Force — an updated version of those old “Let’s all go to the snack bar” trailers, after the jump!

The best thing about that Ferris Bueller article, besides reveling in the gloriousness that was that movie, was the Aussie slant on the film, and the repeated explanations in the comments behind the "Anyone who would nail me wouldn't be here" line. That and deciphering the lingo.

Thank God, you've revoked your notsoPosh love. I was beginning to think I had logged on to podPajiba.

I knew if anything I wrote would get a link, it would be that.

Great FBDO article. Made me wanna kick my dad's Ferrari out of a third story window.

Forget whatever she said in the song, Amy Winehouse NEEDS SOME GODDAMN REHAB. Now.

I'm kinda depressed that I look better as a Simpson character.

Ahhh, cut me some slack, PaddyDog! She publicly said that she would chop off Eddie Murphy's genitalia and spit in his food. That's kinda cool, right? Hello, Norbit?! The man had it coming, is all I'm saying.

Right you are, litelysalted. Although, as far as I'm concerned, he's had it coming ever since the Klumps (name of the actual movie escapes me).

Amy Winehouse.....has issues. But she clearly seems to give a flying fuck, so I'm not even going to go there.

That Ferris Bueller article was AWESOME. I expected it to be sucky, and was plesantly surprised.

Yay Daniel! I live in Portland and was just thinking about the merits of the WW today. I don't get around to reading it as often as I would like, but with your presence I'll start trying to pick it up more often.

The Ferris Bueller article was sheer brillance. I love that the writer took what must have been hours to meticulously go through a favorite movie and relate it's quotable quotes to life, the universe, and everything. But what I love even more is that that movie was Ferris Bueller!

I am so ready to move to Springfield, Simpsonizing is pretty awesome!

Man. That FBDO article was really hilarious!! Awesome linkage.

Posted by: Telis at July 19, 2007 2:26 AM

That Aussie guy who wrote the FBDO story was a total Bill Simmons wannabe. Made me wanna puke.
Plus, FBDO wasn't THAT freakin great. Come on!

Thank you for posting a good quality clip of the ATHF movie intro! I love that thing so much!

...but I thought Carrot Top was our favorite oranged-haired sack of human excrement.
I don't really know anything about Perez, though, as I try to avoid him at all costs, but if he's worse than Carrot Top...
geez.

I always knew FBDO was a masterpiece. I love that movie. Fantastic article.

Eleanor, Perez is worse than CT. However, they are both equally noxious.

Did anyone catch Matt Groening on the Daily Show last night? Pretty funny.

Ha ha, thanks for that ;)

Ferris Buller's Day Off is the best movie of all time. Not that I would ever, ever say that around some of the people I know, but... you know, it just is. That article was sheer brilliance. Perfect. Wonderful.

you people make me smile...

Posted by: bookslut at July 19, 2007 12:02 PM

All this Bueller talk reminds me of the night Fight Club first aired on FX. Husband was glued to the couch, re-watching it in all its modified-from-its-original-version glory.

Me: Honey?

Him: Yeah?

Me: How come we don't own this movie already?

Him: ...I...I don't know.

Now excuse me while I go to Amazon and get me a copy of FBDO--how come I haven't done that already?!

Nice to see you writing for the Willy Week, Dan. Sorry the rest of the paper's such a piece of shit.

Posted by: richbachelor at July 19, 2007 12:21 PM

Litelysalted: That was a great quote, I give you that much, but the woman is just such a piece of slime with boobs, I can't erase the hate with just one good quote.
