Various items for your amusement
Not so much “funny” as “well written and fascinating” is this week’s edition of Eric’s Time Capsule at Film.com, focusing on “New Jack City,” which turned 18 this week. Read!
Elsewhere, my friend Ken describes a fun movie-related game called “If you liked….” If you liked “The Joy Luck Club,” you’ll love “Fight Club”!
Perhaps you have wondered what lolcats from the Soviet bloc would look like? Wonder no more!
Somebody had a contest to add horror elements to classic book covers, and these are some of the winners.
Finally, if you are Mormon, or live among Mormons, you might find truth and humor in this: Stuff Mormons Like.

Well, I can’t figure out how to post on Ken’s site, so you guys get it.
If you liked Pollyanna, you’ll love Oleanna!

Eric, I am surprised that you could get through the spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors that are rampant over at “Stuff Mormons Like.” I was starting to get a headache while reading a couple of those posts.

I couldn’t get through the “Stuff Mormons Like” either. Proper punctuation and capitalization aren’t that hard, people. (Or, apparently that’s something Mormons don’t like.)

“If you liked ‘The Joy Luck Club,’ you’ll love ‘Fight Club’!”
HAHAHA! No.

Another thing Mormons like: websites about stuff that Mormons like

Huh… Knowing Russian is a serious liability when trying to enjoy Soviet Lolcats. I keep thinking, “That’s not what it says!” Worse than that, though, is that what it does say is stupid. Like, it’s crappy poems or sickly cute little jokes. If there were any Russian Babushki who had ever seen a computer in their lives, they’d be mass-forwarding these photos to their grand kids.
For example, the one that’s on top right now (cat with cream on face) says:
“If sour cream is always this aggressive,
I’ll not be able to love it”
HA HA HA. Russia. Love the people. Hate their crappy, collective sense of humor.

Bosh, I say! Eric, everybody knows that “Stuff Mormons Like” sucks. They just write about lame, obvious tripe, and they only bother to post when pigs fly to a blue moon or after Paris Hilton exhibits dignity.
The real site you should be recommending is: http://guidetostuffmormonslike.blogspot.com. A good time will be had by all. Or the baby seal gets it.
