I’ve run one of these Bust product showcase ads before but this time I got a magazine through the post so I could actually check it out myself! Here it is, my wooden fox necklace!

Lots of things this fine Friday. I was going to tell you about my cat’s new litter tray, it’s fucking amazing, but I think it deserves a post all on it’s own… So yeah, what a random aside. I’m sure you don’t really want to hear my inner dialogue, right? Or maybe you do… hum. ON WITH THE GOOD STUFF! YEAH! … YEAH!

• Disgustingly amazing antique-book-mac-book-book?-cover

• Geek clock, via unplggd
• Dinosaur cake sprinkles, zomg, they also do  dino print bun cases in the same store!

• Advertising on buses, sweet.
• Hitler’s favourite painter, via boingboing. I really like the one of Pan.

• Before and after WIN, via failblog.
• Logo design from start to finish.

• You dropped it on the floor, do you eat it? Shamefully under representing the xxSeconds rule. You know, if you’ve been drinking, you can increase the seconds rule by several alcohol related integers. Fact.

• Lovely illustrations from Juan Molinet (you can find his behance here). Via thunderchunky (one of my favourite blogs).
• Design*sponge article about ‘living in Fantastic Mr.Fox’ which is all pretty and lovely and nice. Check it out.

That’s all for this week! I would like to say that yesterday I signed up to do the race for life in July. For those of you who don’t know, it’s a 5km local run that happens country-wide in the UK. It’s run solely by women and is to raise money for cancer research UK. Anyway, you should all totally go and sponsor my ass over here. Funnily enough, we went to the gym last night for the first time in an ever… and I pretty much killed myself running 1km. Yeah. O.O

Hi kittens, I’m SLOWLY getting back on track with things after retruning from HK, unfortunately the blog has suffered a little due to this. Hopefully this weekend I’ll have some things lined up for the next week. Anyway, here’s a small weekly good stuff post for you :)

• First of all, if you only glance at my good stuff posts, you really should deifnitely watch this video. It’s fucking amazing, honestly, it’s your cute for the week!

• And if you’re in the mood for cutes, check out these fennec foxes, zomg SQUEE!

• Amazing advertising as posted as CR-blog.

• Super pretty camera, this would sit nicely next to my eidelweiss diana+ (which, I have to say, didn’t stand up very well to my rucksack in HK, the paint started chipping… not good!).
• Adam and I read the whole of this blog last night, Tiny Art Director. Some illustrator guy asks his 4 year old daughter what he should draw, then she critiques his work. Head over there for hilarious commentary and ridiculous briefs!

• My adorable talented friend lindsay has made this amazing dress-up set!!! Get it on etsy!

• OK that’s all, here’s a photo of me and Beardy McBeardFace on the MTR to disney HK. We can never take nice photos.

This has to be one of my favourite viral ads in a long while. It’s pretty neat!

What loonacy!

If you saw the advert, the Heinz deli advert, you’ll know what I’m on about. Basically, it’s a family situation on a morning but the mother has been replaced by a new york deli counter guy. He uses the mothers dialogue whilst making sandwiches, patting the kids on their head as they go off to school and giving them their lunches. Then the father comes down, grabs his lunch and heads for the door. At this point the deli guy’s all like ‘Aren’t you forgetting something?’ and the father returns and pecks the deli guy on the lips in a ‘see you tonight!’ kind of way.

Here’s the video from youtube:

200 Homophobic cretins have complained to the ad watchdog about this example of dudes kissing, and the ad has now been taken down and Heinz have had to apologise… APOLOGISE FOR WHAT?!
Seriously? Watched the news lately? kids getting blown to pieces half way across the world? bloated bodies floating in rivers in Burma? Get some freakin’ perspective.
