I’m not sure why I’m so fascinated by this series of animated GIFs. I mean, I know this was how it was done but I still find it immensely enthralling. Am I alone here? Via Welcome to Wonderland♠.

Negative Nancy vs Positive Polly
Gawd, having two toddlers is tough. And trying to be a good mom is the hardest thing I’ve ever done (and I imagine it will continue to be so for the remainder of my life). These past couple of weeks have been especially trying with J’s parents and my own mother all on vacation (the […]
Fantastically Realistic Illustrations of Disney Princesses, Part Deux
I first blogged about Finnish artist Jirka Väätäinen‘s Real Life Disney Girls series back in 2011, and it remains a popular post!

NFL Quarterbacks on Facebook: Super Bowl XLVII Edition
You guys, the Baltimore Ravens won the Super Bowl. My team was crowned the 2012-2013 NFL Champions.

Incredible Amazon Page Resumé
I have featured some special resumés here in the past, and I have to say that this one takes the cake. Philippe Dubost, a web product manager in Paris, created a fake Amazon product page to showcase his skillset and talents. At first glance, you can hardly tell that you’re not looking at an Amazon page! You gotta […]
