Procrastinate on This! Japanese Women Put a Lego Ring On It
The only thing I’m doing this weekend is moving, but I’m assuming that the rest of you have sexier plans. Hopefully the below bits of procrastination (20 minutes guaranteed) will get you through the workday a little faster.
Ooh, I want a Lego Ring! Click on the pic for more info.
1. Apparently, having fame, wealth, and beauty isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. In fact, it can lead to general dissatisfaction. Basically, it’s better to shoot for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. [EurekAlert]
2. This Japanese “marriage countdown” bra is not only ridiculous, but probably also a huge turn-off for any guy that might actually want to marry the bra’s wearer. [Jezebel]
3. Just in time for skin cancer season summer, you’ve been using sunblock all wrong. Apparently, t’s not about the SPF #, but how much and how often you put it on. [NYT]
4. What do we think about this faceless Diesel watch? Super-clever or super-inconvenient? [LikeCool]
5. Like the trailer, but I’m still not sure if I want to see Rob Marshall’s Nine next Oscar season. On one hand I love film musicals, but on the other I kind of hate Fellini (who provided this film’s source material). I think he’s a guy’s director and I tend to find his stuff tedious and masturbatory. I’m still a little traumatized by being forced to watch a ton of Fellini in grad school. But maybe this musical take could change my mind? Either way, let me know what you think of the upcoming film in the comments.

Ouch! So does this mean your NOT going to watch it?

Umm, one of the richest & most under-appreciated little gems of the theatre making it's transition to the big screen with a top-notch cast as well as the visual stylings of a true artist in his own right. Hell's bells I'm gonna see it. What Marshall did for CHICAGO will be even more apt for NINE. Say what you will about the subject matter, but I love Fellini's theatricality and his sense of the bizarre & the extravagant. I am eagerly looking forward to seeing this if for nothing else than to indulge the inner musical theatre geek & cinephile.
