I guess IKEA is branching out… O_o

Spotted at the Costa Mesa store a couple of weeks ago.

A Goo Place to Shop

In case you need more goo for your home…

(I wonder if they have another store for Office Goo.)

It’s beginning to look a lot like…medieval weaponry?

I’ve seen dangerous-looking Christmas decorations at the mall before, but at least those looked like…well, Christmas decorations. This spiked ball looks like something you’d find at the end of a mace, or maybe on the end of a chain for some knight to swing around.

Maybe the order called for a “morning star” and someone got confused?

Out of Orders

Someone went through and scraped off all the Bs from the windows at the local ex-Borders.

Insert obligatory Army of Darkness reference here. I wonder if their “always fresh” guarantee applies to boom sticks… (Found in Torrance, California.)

On a vaguely related note, Incredible Cafe is no more. It’s now Four Brothers Burger Grill. I wonder where they came up with that naming scheme.

It’s Super!

Found this photo I took back when Super 8 was in theaters. It’s funny how, when you get used to emoticons, they just kind of insist on being read.

This one’s right up there with Windows XP.

Recent Links: Netflix/Qwikster Edition

By now, you’ve heard that Netflix is splitting their business in two: one for streaming movies over the internet, which will keep the name, and one for renting DVDs by mail, which will be called Qwikster. Here are links to several funny (and a couple of serious) takes on the situation.

Quickster? That sounds oddly familiar…
Webcomic The Oatmeal explains it in terms of the food service industry.
Woot’s CEO parodies the “apology” letter by announcing Crapster.
Interesting theory at ZDNet: Splitting off the DVD business sets up Netflix to be bought by Amazon without subjecting Amazon to sales tax requirements in all the new states where they (used to) have shipping centers.
Netflix and studios compared to grocery stores and dairy farms (Me at Google+)
I was tempted to leave this funny Netflix comment up, but it was also spam. Good thing I’ve got @lol_spam for that: Netflix Drunk-Dialing

It’s not too late!
