For your education and/or horror, may I introduce the [livejournal.com profile] googleseppuku community.

This is where all those playing Google Seppuku are hanging out.

And what is Google Seppuku? Quote:

"The rules are simple:
Type random japanese characters into google's image search
Count the pages until you come across a picture that makes you wish you'd never been born or played"


Have fun. Be scared.

With my current frame of mind, this was an interesting read today.

"It is good

It is good that you are where you are. Because where you are is a place from which you can surely move forward.

It is good that you have made it through the events that brought you to this place and time. Because the journey has provided you with valuable knowledge, experience, wisdom and strength.

It is good that there are challenges for you to tackle. For on the other side of those challenges, once you work through them, is the treasure of achievement.

It is good that you're not completely certain about what tomorrow will bring. Because that gives you the opportunity to make tomorrow into whatever you choose.

It is good that the world is constantly changing. For that gives you the ability to fill it with your highest vision.

It is good that things are just the way they are. For that gives you the perfect opportunity to make life into the best that it can be.

Man costumed as feces has case in court to settle

"Mr. Floatie - a brown, smiling lump of feces - will have to take a break from his environmental concerns Tuesday as he heads to British Columbia Supreme Court.

The costumed crusader for sewage treatment is being challenged by the city of Victoria because of his nomination as a candidate for the position of mayor in the upcoming municipal election.

Mr. Floatie is a high-profile and tireless reminder of Victoria's practice of pumping raw sewage into the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

The man inside the costume, James Skwarok, says the city appears to be taking issue with his candidacy because only real persons can run.

It's an objection he finds moot.

"Of course I'm not a real person, I'm a big piece of poop."

The move by the city to keep Mr. Floatie off the throne of power has left him "beyond bummed out. I was fuming."

Scientists Study Gorilla Who Uses Tools

"An infant gorilla in a Congo sanctuary is smashing palm nuts between two rocks to extract oil, surprising and intriguing scientists who say they have much to learn about what gorillas can do - and about what that says about evolution.

It had been thought that the premeditated use of stones and sticks to accomplish a task like cracking nuts was restricted to humans and the smaller, more agile chimpanzees. Then in late September, keepers at a Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International sanctuary in this eastern Congo city saw 2 1/2-year-old female gorilla Itebero smashing palm nuts between rocks in the "hammer and anvil" technique, considered among the most complex tool use behaviors."
