2. Penelope Trunk:

The farmer broke up with me five times the first five months we were together, last year. So I learned that he had huge commitment issues.

I tried to do the advisable thing to do when you’re with someone who has commitment issues. I tried to fall in love with someone else. But I didn’t. I only missed the farmer more.

So I told myself that it’s okay to be with someone who has commitment issues, as long as I am having fun.

But my kids grew to love the farm, and the farmer, almost as quickly as I did. This makes sense. My oldest son was with me on my first visit to the farm, and if you have ever been on a working farm you know that to kids, it’s like Disney World.

3. Supposedly, U2's latest four months of touring has earned $300 million, which is just enough to cover the cost of the tour. Via.

New SpongeBob toys from Burger King

Coming next week (I think), new SpongeBob toys at Burger King. I'm actually not a fan of SpongeBob or his show (every episode I've seen seems to feature him as a moron torturing people), but these figures are about as good as the last several sets of vinyl toys released by Kidrobot.

*Previously: Lego Plankton.

*Buy SpongeBob toys at eBay.

Minimalist video game designs (link roundup)

Samus and Kirby - - two of the minimalist video game designs posted here. Two of the designs are also on sale on t-shirts here. Via.

And a few more links:

1. Funny Fark headline:

Coming soon to a Borders near you, free Wi-Fi. Well, great, that's what we need more of in our bookstores: cheap hippies with laptops drinking coffee and discussing the importance of Keroauc. Goddammit so much.

2. The first generation Taco Bell vinyl toys were so ghastly, I don't know why anyone even bothered mentioning them. The second generation is looking a little better, and the ad campaign directly targets Kidrobot.

3. The FBI made an arrest in the Erin Andrews video case. You can read the complaint here.
