SPLENDOUR CINDERS IS…

EATING: Strawberry Jelly and Barbeque Pringles!

What a badass combination! Hm. Though my stomach hurts a little…but there’s no way I will ever reject jelly if we’ve got it. Major jelly fiend here! I DISCOVERED THE MOST AMAZING THING THE OTHER DAY, MAKE-YOUR-OWN-JELLY. So far, I’ve made Rockstar Jelly, Red Bull jelly, “V” Jelly and Shweppes ‘Agrum’ Jelly. ALL AMAZING. Red bull was a bit weird though.

WATCHING: Interview with a Vampire, Fight Club.

Not at the same time though. My multitasking abilities can only get me so far!

Today’s a bit of a shoddy post. Hope it’s not too obvious…! You got some Class A “Floral Prints” coming right at you for my next blog…

Here’s a kitty making om nom sounds:

Ever since watching this video, due to the subsequent imitations of the sound that followed – I know eat food while making that exact sound subconsciously sometimes. Please help me stop. :O

Also, while trawling through other Kitty Vids, I found this:

I have mixed feelings about this one, it’s cute but also sort of disturbing…! Also, the soong sounds familiar (and creepy!), from the Simpsons maybe? Must be an American thing.

GANGSTA LUV – SNOOP DOGG & THE DREAM. Love this song and video, it makes me feel real badass when I walk down the street! Everytime I see the little bobble-head dog in this video, it has me cracking up. No idea why. It just does.

Thanks for all the emails, I might post some up later…when I get more.

Send me funny pictures, stories, jokes…or maybe something serious. Whatever.

SHOES! SHOES!

NIKE AIR PEGASUS ‘89 BERLIN

THESE ARE SO FUCKING HOT. I’ve been just starin’ and starin’ at them! I feel like a little bit of a loser to be honest. Whatever. This is proof to me that there is a god:

Is it so wrong to love a shoe? I want these. Badly. You can check out more pictures of this beautiful, beautiful footwear [HERE].

splendourcinders, out!

Surprised Kitteh! Nawh!

Ain’t this the cutest thing ever?

Seriously, I’ve watched that video about uh…15 times now. No joke. It’s just so damn cute! I’m probably going to watch it again after I post this. I’ve tried it on my full grown cats but they just give me that “fuck you” look that scares me shitless. (Not really). And because you can never have too much cute in one day, SLOW LORIS YAY!

It’s time like these where I realise just how girly I can be. God forbid!

Also – what’s with people who do smileys with noses? It’s just so weird looking! Anyway who has a nose that skinny? That smiley is just encouraging young teenage girls to have a nose that is unreasonably thin and unhealthy. Wait. What?

Have a great day everyone, don’t forget to email with anything interesting!! I need entertaining! LOVE FOR YOU, IF YOU DO! Gawds, I’m such a rhymer. splendourcinders@gmail.com

splendourcinders, out!

Quick Post!

I’ve just stumbled onto the latest google phenomenon: MYSTERY GOOGLE.

And apparently the whole point of it is to search something including your person info (not too personal guys, rashes just don’t belong there) – something more like “text me a joke 0455567322″ – but fuck it, I have a blog!

Email me funny stories! You’re mong if you don’t!

splendourcinders@gmail.com

DO IT. SERIOUSLY, IT’S NOT LIKE YOU HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO DO!

splendourcinders, out!

I’M BORED.

If you’ve never said those words to yourself then your either a) in denial, to the point where if you don’t get help soon, you’ll implode, b) an android or c) a vegetable. No offence. But I don’t think vegetables get bored. I’m not being un-PC, I’m being honest. But vegetables can’t read so I’m assuming you’re not one and that you’re bored and want to entertained.

Well, because I’m nice and the sort of looking-out-for-you type, here’s a list of SHIT TO DO WHEN YOU ARE BORED ON THE INTERNET! YAY!

Triggered by that desperate – and often fruitless – search that I would embark on during my darkest moments of boredom. You have too, I know, let’s bond and all that. I’m only gonna give you WEBCOMICS today, but be assured there’ll be more weapons of unboredom available soon! From me.

TOP TEN WEBCOMICS (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER~!)

They waste so much time. Fucking godly these are. LINKS FOR YOU!! Click ‘em.

10. [XKCD]

Doesn’t everyone know about xkcd? Well, I guess this is for those who’ve just awoken from a vegetative state. What?! IT HAPPENS!!

9. [CYANIDE & HAPPINESS]

Same as above. Everyone knows it. Vegetative state or no.

8. [SATURDAY MORNING BREAKFAST CEREAL]

7. [LEAST I COULD DO]

One of my personal favourites, this one is. Especially the ‘early years’ comics. READ EVERY SINGLE COMIC ON THIS SITE, I DARE YOU.

6. [QUESTIONABLE CONTENT]

5. [PENNY ARCADE]

4. [DR. MCNINJA]

Don’t fuck with a ninja – ESPECIALLY if they have a PHD.

3. [DINOSAUR COMICS]

2. [THE PERRY BIBLE FELLOWSHIP]

Another one of my favourites.

1. [WHITE NINJA]

Enjoy!

OH! And in other news, I found something shocking! *GASP!* You know how we often personify clothes in such a way where they’re always screaming some statement or rather?

Well, let me introduce you to ‘Bobby Trendy’…

It turns out that clothes CAN literally scream self esteem issues! Who would have thought? Ha!

Nein! Das ist mein Tokio Hotel!

Ladies and Gentlemen (Yes, I do mean both!) let me introduce you to the lead singer of Tokio Hotel – one Mr. Bill Kaulitz.

: Androgyny at it’s finest…

Now, androgyny isn’t a new concept as far as the music industry goes – The Gazette (well…all Visual-Kei, really…), Patrick Wolf and David Bowie come to mind – but never before has it been this sexy or received this much crazed fandom. And I mean crazed. Or maybe that’s just what people are like in Europe, I wouldn’t know…

But as a professed muscle-man-fan, finding Bill attractive was confusing, and it made me wonder what exactly it is about Bill that drives girls crazy.

I concluded that it was the Robert Pattinson ‘Edward Cullen’ syndrome.

Bill is foreign, something new, something interesting. So like a vampire but German. Same thing, maybe? Moving on… He’s charming, and has the romantic intentions of an aristocrat from the 18^th century. He’s loudspoken, confident and in a rock band! A ROCK BAND DAMNIT. Pretty sure that’s like 400 bonus points on the attractiveness scale. Maybe even 500. That’s a lot of points.

But then there’s that element of femininity which makes him seem vulnerable, and as women, don’t we all just want someone to love and care for, to nurture? According to psychologists we do, so I’m just going to go along with that theory. So there you have it – the Tokio-Twilight sensation that swept the nation. Not my nation, but you know. Whatever. It rhymes.

Being a lead singer and all, there’s music to be had and the latest album, HUMANOID, is pretty damn addictive. I find it very Depeche Mode-esque which is pleasing to me.

No seriously, have a listen to ‘Human Connect to Human’ (Menschen Suchen Menschen). It’s eerily reminiscent of ‘Personal Jesus’ – Depeche Mode. DO IT.
