Gorey: The things you learn...

For instance, Edward Gorey took a break from illustrating gothic horror to illustrate an ettiquette book. Courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] found_objectsI present to you: The Recently Deflowered Girl , which is bound to be useful to the prospective reader in all kinds of situations.

Interestingly, i also found out that Mr. Gorey illustrated H.G. Well's The War of the Worlds. Nicely prolific of the man.

Thoughts on watching the third season of "Invader Zim"

One of the amusing things about the series for me is the knowledge that with the technology the Irkans posesess, conquering the Earth should be a trivial feat...if it wasn't for the fact that Zim is so STUPID. He's simply unable comprehend how to put the technology he has to good use.

So would this be a case of "Sufficiently Advanced Technology, Insufficiently Advanced User"?
