A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. An amusing music video from Mindless Self Indulgence, directed by Jhonen Vasquez. (Via) A recent Wii update closed up a loophole that allowed hackers to run homebrew software through Twilight Princess, but apparently hackers have already broken the new code and opened up the loophole again.

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. The Smithsonian Magazine has an interesting article about a museum of bogus artwork in Italy. (Via Jill) A pic of Goku from the Dragonball Z movie. It's been recorded rather poorly, but this Dark Knight TV spot is still pretty cool. Check out Nerd World's hilarious burger-centric deleted scenes from Iron Man, then take a look at this screenshot from the......

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. Actress Isabella Rossellini's latest project is a series of two-minute films called Green Porno commissioned by the Sundance Channel. In them, she impersonates various small creatures to show how they reproduce. We kid you not. (Via Jill) Virtual-Vancouver has partnered with the New Music West festival to create the first massively multi-user online music festival. To attend, all......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. In response to all the buzz over the botched box art for the Wii version of Okami, Capcom is offering to replace the art with one of three different designs. Go here to get yours. Apparently, the Lost Boys sequel is going directly to DVD (boo!), and you can see the cover art for said DVD here. Speaking of DVDs, apparently the deluxe......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Terrell Owens just may have shown up in the background of a photo from a hardcore porn shoot (which is, disappointingly, pretty safe for work). (Via Sarah) Penny Arcade points out that there are some things you really just don't need to put on Twitter. Don't mess with the Goddamn Batman. He knows lawyers. Heh heh.

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. Vintage porn posters! None of them feature any actual nudity, but you still might want to think twice about clicking at work. (Via Sarah, via Jezebel) An inmate in South Carolina has filed a request for a restraining order against Rockstar Games, GTA publisher Take-Two Interactive, and Grand Theft Auto itself, claiming that the group is responsible for his current prison sentence. He......

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (Mon, 10PM-10:30PM, Food Network) One of our favorite Food Network shows visits Philly again, this time in order to sample scrapple at a diner.

The closure of I-95 has taken a toll on some, but the road did indeed reopen this morning around 6:30AM, and it's expected to remain open during the more permanent repair of the cracked column that will soon follow, and which should take about a month. After that comes the really major work: "Replacing the whole elevated stretch of I-95 between Spring Garden Street and Cottman Avenue." A split three-member panel of the Philadelphia......

Lots of people are talking about Obama's speech in Philly yesterday, including the Daily News and the Inquirer (and us, of course). Hillary Clinton's response was sort of an "isn't that nice for him" kind of thing. Somehow the story of the twin gay porn star burglars keeps getting better. Now it's come out through court testimony that their mother served as a lookout during their rooftop break-ins. The Inquirer tells the story of......

Teamsters plan to rally outside the Four Seasons Hotel at 18th Street and the Ben Franklin Parkway at 1:30PM today because AmerisourceBergen Corp.'s annual shareholder meeting is being held there at that time, and the teamsters are accusing the company of unfair labor practices. Remember how Rick's Steaks was fighting to stay in the Reading Terminal Market? Well, the fight continues. A recent court ruling dismissed most of Olivieri's claims against Reading Terminal, but Olivieri's......

Phillyist's favorite news item this morning is this one: twin 25-year-old internet hardcore gay porn stars Keyontyli and Taleon Goffney (apparently known as Keyon and Teyon in the biz), of New Jersey, have been arrested for a series of robberies in Philadelphia and New Jersey wherein they gained entry to businesses by cutting holes in the roofs using a handsaw and ax. In Nether Providence, they broke into Wawas, and Chief Richard Slifer of......

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. Some cool stuff is coming out of the NY Toy Fair, including pics of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull LEGO figures; some news and behind-the-scenes footage about upcoming movies like Iron Man, Incredible Hulk, G.I. Joe, and Star Wars: The Clone Wars; and Mattel Speed Racer toys. Apparently there's going to be a total......

Dear La Petite Mort, Why is it so enjoyable to motorboat an exquisite pair of boobies? I dont know the answer, but perhaps you do. Either way, i shall continue to motorboat. — Johnny Brumsky [sic] Dear John, Not quite sure why it's such excellent times. Perhaps you are flashing back to your infancy, when you were a wee lad and your mother's breasts loomed over you like giant hot air balloons. You wanted to......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. The big news today is, of course, the fact that Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema have mended fences and Jackson is going to direct not just one, but two movies based on The Hobbit. We don't remember the book being all that long, but hey, we'll give them our money twice. In slightly less exciting Peter Jackson-related news, Jackson and......

The cold weather - and holiday festivities - descended upon Gothamist. The Rockefeller Christmas tree was lit, Broadway stagehand finally ended their strike, and NASCAR decided to run their victory lap through Times Square. There were disturbing photographs revealing the working conditions in which many city manholes are produced and ninjas were also a hot topic, either robbing homes or entering into alibis. But the city was really rocked by how Rudy Giuliani's visits......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. MapQuest now has a function for mapping the best gas prices. And perhaps unsurprisingly, all the best prices in the Philadelphia area are in... New Jersey. (Via Allen) Supposedly the new Friday the 13th movie won't be a remake - instead, it'll be a story set between parts two and four (uh... wouldn't that be three?) that features "a leaner, meaner, faster Jason......

The Inquirer has an article about the Philadelphia Community Cats Council, a group of folks trying to manage and reduce the city's huge feral cat population, estimated to be at least 250,000. They do this by trapping feral cats, neutering them, and then returning them where they were found. Both the Daily News and the Inquirer have articles about Sharon Hill native John Patrick Foley and his elevation this weekend to the status of Cardinal......

SFist witnessed a new apartment building tszuj the skyline with spectacular, gaudy turquoise aplomb, the (informal) renaming of the Mission/SOMA neighborhood border, the return of the Maltese Falcon, the Mayor Gavin Newsom mea culpa-ing over his Hawaiian getaway during the oil spill, and double-decker buses hitting the streets of San Francisco. Oh, and some baseball player named Barry Bonds is a liar whose pants, it seems, are totally on fire. LAist continues to cover the......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. In honor of Veteran's Day, Cinematical offers us their Seven Favorite War Veteran Characters. Turns out the Movie Blog isn't going away after all! Wow, Winona Ryder is going to play Spock's mom in the new Star Trek movie.

Londonist got the big scoop of the week with what may be the first images of notorious street artist Banksy in action. They also got on a runaway train without an operator provoking a response from the transport authorities. Elsewhere, London's answer to Central Station is about to open for business, and Londonist got a sneak preview. Meanwhile, spooky goings-on beneath London Bridge, where a cache of skeletons provided an apt story for Hallowe'en.......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. The Wall Street Journal has a video and an article about horse riders in Strawberry Mansion. We're not sure we like the tone, but at least they are putting a spotlight on a positive thing happening in an inner-city Philadelphia neighborhood. You've probably heard about the skeletons of Hobbit-like, near-human creatures found in Indonesia. If not, Scott Adams will fill you in on......

Performances: Debbie Does Dallas: The Musical (To The Wall Productions) (Future Showtimes) I got a late start on the PLAF, and I do feel sad and sorry about it. I was out of town, and arrived in the middle of last week to a job tornado, the start of new classes, and some large plumbing problems at home. But all that is marginally under control, and I'm ready to see some shows involving sex, nudity,......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. Beloved sci-fi/children's author Madeleine L'Engle died in a nursing home on Thursday of natural causes (via). She was 88. For everyone lost, however, someone is gained: Warren Ellis lets us know on his blog that a son was born last night to great comic creator Matt Fraction and partner Kelly Sue DeConnick. Rest in peace, Madeleine, and congratulations Matt and Kelly......

Chicagoist is gearing up for this weekend's annual Air & Water Show along the lakefront. In what's becoming an annual tradition around there, staff member Todd McClamroch even got to fly with one of the participants. Chicagoist's decidedly opinionated readership was also appalled that one of their staffers found a popular local brewpub to be a great place to bring a kid. They also think that an unlikely activist for immigration rights should just take......

The best of the internet, chopped into tiny bits and grilled for your enjoyment. NaughtyCodes.com actually has nothing to do with porn; it's a site that lists all those coupon and promotional codes that are only supposed to be sent to select customers. But now they're available to you, for naughty deals! (Via Jill, via her Mom) Um... this is just creepy. (Via Jill) What's the hottest new solo indie release? Songs for Ice Cream......

A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you. To our delight, someone has indeed illustrated that little super hero comic about Ikea by Matthew Baldwin of defective yeti that we posted a link to a while back. Yay! (Via) Stan Lee has signed a multi-year exclusive deal with Disney, meaning "Lee and his company will develop and produce all forms of entertainment" for Disney, and for Disney alone. Huh. Well, we'll......

LAist is experimenting with blogging dates from J-Date, but finds the best men are found offline. Some date vicariously online and that is one reason why porn is big -- really freaking big -- so they ask if they should cover XXX since the heart of it lays in the city's San Fernando Valley. A writer grapples with her food porn photography obsession, another gets censored on Flickr, one gets scooped by the LA......
