A New Brand of Meme

Creative graffiti of your pal's daemon. Here's how it works: go over to the Golden Compass website and get yourself a daemon. Slap a link or paste in their java flashy thing to your page and get people to start fucking with the sliders until you end up with a platypus.

This game meme has the added benefit of promoting a movie that the Religious Right is frothing mad about, despite the fact that the producers have already caved to those fucking lunatics. I wonder if the Religious Right got so worked up about Star Trek 5?

One final note: I don't know if you can actually get a platypus for a daemon, but if someone does, they win.

I think TBS should switch from playing A Christmas Story for 48 hours to showing The Passion of the Christ for 48 hours to appease the ravening hordes.

"Passion" as the true zealots refer to it, is more of an Easter Story.

There was a line about The Golden Compass over at The Onion AV Club that cracked me up. It said that the thumpers had the chastity belts in a knot because the film promotes atheism. AV Club said they were morons: the film promotes deicide. How can you kill something if you don't believe it exists in the first place?

The AV Club is constantly oppressing me with how much better they are at this sort of crap than I.

I tried hard to get a platypus, but I ended up with Eurasta, the lion daemon. Stupid lions.
