As many of you out in cube land must know, you’ve got your work computer (always clean out those cookies) and probably one at home (why hello illegally downloaded music and strangely suspect websites in history folder probably due to a BF). I just happened to notice today that my one of my Firefoxes has way too many bookmarks but HEY, some of them are kind of neat. And mostly involve shopping. Because I am a girl. I must adhere to the gender roles assigned to me.
Anyhow – what’s in this horribly unorganized bookmarks folder?

Super 8 Movie Spool Clock by IMOTIME
I was probably among the last kids in a particular generation of film school students to actually use a Super-8 camera to learn how to edit and shoot my very first short films. Clearly I want this out of pure nostalgia. Kids today! They don’t know shit! With their Canon DV this and thats and their YourToobs and such. Pfft.

“No One Wants to Play Sega with Harrison Ford” by Brandon Bird
I have no idea where I may have stumbled upon Brandon Bird’s art but you must visit his site to see more of his work. His paintings have this strange affect on you: first you are comforted by a recognizable pop culture reference, and then you are disoriented when it’s turned on its head, usually in a joyous and surreal twist. You might see Christopher Walken working on a robot or Noam Chomsky walking in a parking lot towards his sweet, sweet ride. Buy something too, contribute to the arts, you person that is probably super excited watching American Gladiators. (Insta-Disclaimer: I have been watching American Gladiators.)

Bertman’s Ball Park Mustard
Recommended to me by my boss after I had described to him how I wanted to steal the mustard from Phillipe’s by simply pouring it into my pockets.

Guys With Guns – a Flickr photoset by peter-noster
Yeah, I was probably looking for pictures of Simon Pegg in Hot Fuzz to set as my desktop background and I came across all kinds of actors brandishing firearms in this excellent little collection. Click further. You’ve got to see Sean Connery in Zardoz.

Polish Movie Poster for Mulholland Drive by Swava Harasymowicz
This is just plain old sweet.

I Got Wood – Ed’s t-shirt from Shaun of the Dead
Well, come on. Every slacker male on the planet should have this to go along with his unique odor of video game sweat, oily foods, and the musky touch of bong smoke.
