Local Music Roooooooools!!!!11!


Anyone who knows me in the slightest is probably aware of my love for Married to the Sea, Toothpaste for Dinner, and Natalie Dee, three webcomics put up by a husband and wife. You can read them at the MttS link I posted to the right under 'humor.'

Jumping the Shark


Sadly, I think the lolcats craze might have jumped the shark in the past couple weeks. It is quite a shame - I loved those things, but I realize that they have just about reached that level of saturation where they just aren't as funny any more because they are so ubiquitous. The sneaking suspicion has been pretty much confirmed by the cultural commentators that are Drew and Natalie Dee of Married to the Sea/Toothpaste for Dinner/Natalie Dee fame. This really is a sad day for me. I'll just have to wait until the next viral sensation comes along the road we call 'internet' and replaces lolcats and dramatic chipmunk.
I also think that the phrase 'jumped the shark' is in the last days/weeks before it, in one of the more ironic moments ever, well, jumps the shark. I will have a good laugh on that day.
