Breakfast Links: You Action Figures, Staten Island Girls & Tattoo Typos
I know you’ve always wanted to be your own action figure. Fortunately for you, this is your chance to turn your photo into a full on custom one! (via) That’s right, send in your photo and it gets sculpted by the artist onto a vinyl head that gets attached to an action figure body (or a doll), you pick some clothes and POW. It’s you with kung-fu grip. Sweet! Right? Can you send pictures of anything? That’s my question, I can imaging the possibilities, a beast with the head of Cthulhu and the body and popped collar of a frat boy! It’s endless… only $160.
Next up we have the mayor of the year. Yes, the mayor of a Jersey shore town has smacked down, very publicly, the Staten Island girls who seem to infest his town. You have to love that this public official published this:
The spat ended the way most fights with SI girls do. The SI woman grabbed the Boonton woman by the hair… and began punching her face in….As the Staten Island girl was pummeling the Boonton girl’s face, she used the hand she was still holding her drink glass in. Now, we’re not sure if the glass was stuck to her hand cause of all the hair spray or if this is a technique Staten Island girls learn in Brownies, but we are thankful she left her brass knuckles and straight razor in her other purse.
Come on! I mean, the whole newsletter is awesome, from the first article on the first houses to attract their sheriffs attention on down. Even has a spotlight on njguido.com, where they totally make fun of that crap and offer a $100 reward for information leading to a noise summons to an anonymous poster! That guy should totally blog. I’d read the hell out of it.
And then there was the list of Top 10 Tattoo mispellings. Up front, I’ll say it’s not really the top 10 because several of them aren’t really mispellings, just bad tattoos, I guess they couldn’t find 10 actual mispellings but still needed to linkbait. On the other hand, they’re all pretty funny, so you know. I’m only annoyed on principle. I’m a very principled person, you see. Whatever. Tomarrow never knows.
BONUS LINK: Well, not only is it iPhone week, it’s also Joss Whedon week! You saw Dr. Horrible Act I and Act II already, right? Well, while you’re waiting for III (on tomorrow) you can catch Joss on Best Week Ever tonight at 9 and 11pm.
