<p>So, <strong>YES</strong>: we <em>will</em> sell, lend, or lease you a built-to-purpose condition along with its appropriate consolation. </p>

<p>But, <strong>NO</strong>: we&#8217;re absolutely <em>not</em> Santa Claus. So, get real, you big fakers.</p>

<p>Dear Mr. Polman, </p>
|
|
178
|
+
|
|
179
|
+
<p>I hope you can help me. </p>
|
|

|

<p>You are in charge of a massive, multinational food and detergent company. So I understand that you are a very busy man. My problem, while small compared to all of the things you must worry about every day, is of dire importance to me. </p>
|
|
182
|
+
|
|
183
|
+
<p>I have been a fan of your Ragu line of pasta sauces for many years. </p>
|
|
184
|
+
|
|
185
|
+
<p>Specifically, I <em>love</em> your Ragu Robusto™ Six Cheese Pasta Sauce. </p>
|
|
186
|
+
|
|
187
|
+
<p>More specifically, I love to have sex with your Ragu Robusto™ Six Cheese Pasta Sauce. </p>
|

<p>Yes, I am a salsaphile—someone who is stimulated by tomato-based sauces or purées. Yes, it is very real. The <em>DSM-IV-TR</em> (psychiatry&#8217;s literal Bible) almost refers to it several times. </p>
|
|
192
|
+
|
|
193
|
+
<p>For years, I have loved Ragu Six Cheese. A fine purée and creamy balance of cheeses, lovingly microwaved for 45 seconds, has been my companion for so many otherwise lonely nights. In fact, two years ago I broke off my relationships with all other sauces and decided to see Ragu Six exclusively. After a final, lingering kiss with Newman&#8217;s Own Cabernet Marinara, I and Ragu Six were free to begin the next stage of our life together. </p>
|
|
194
|
+
|
|
195
|
+
<p>Then, <em>disaster</em>. </p>
|
|
196
|
+
|
|
197
|
+
<p>Some bean counter in your accounting department must have decided to cut costs. Suddenly, one Saturday evening, Ragu Six changed. The viscosity was off. The skin-feel was different. I looked down into my specially designed bowl and didn&#8217;t recognize the sauce staring back up at me. </p>
|
|
198
|
+
|
|
199
|
+
<p>You might think that I am an isolated case, some lone &#8220;weirdo&#8221; with a grudge. Not true! The forum at NoShameTomato.org is on fire with dozens of complaints from folks who also preferred the amorous texture of the previous formula. Those are complaints from many different people who are definitely not me. </p>
|

|

|
+
<p>Mr. Polman, I understand that you are probably not sexually aroused by a liquified Burpee Super Italian. But, please, I beg that you go back to the old recipe. Give me back the sauce I once loved so much. </p>

<p>Ah, yes. Very nice. I see you eyeing our all new 2013 Toyota Scimitar with optional Sports Package and Premium Ground Effects.

<p><strong>Thieving Threesome Nabbed</strong></p>
|
|
292
|
+
|
|
293
|
+
<p>(California) Three men were detained and arrested at a local Target today, charged with the attempted theft of over $400 in merchandise. The men refused to identify themselves, giving only their local club affiliation: Gellies Local 416.</p>
|
|
294
|
+
|
|
295
|
+
<p>&#8220;This wasn&#8217;t your normal grab-and-go,&#8221; said Target assistant manager Charles Monjohnson. &#8220;Like what they were wearing: fezzes, vests, and some kind of extremely roomy jumpsuit.&#8221; </p>
|
|
296
|
+
|
|
297
|
+
<p>Also strange, he said, were the items they attempted to steal. A partial list:

<p>One witness, who asked not to be identified, had an up-close view of the incident: &#8220;I don&#8217;t know how they thought they&#8217;d get out of there with all that stuff,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Sure, they tried to cram some of it into their jumpsuits, but it was just spilling out of their clothes. They walked past the security guard just as nonchalant as can be, making eye contact, smiling and nodding as if they had nothing to hide. And if the store alarm hadn&#8217;t gone off, they might have gotten away with it, too.&#8221;</p>
|
|
312
|
+
|
|
313
|
+
<p>The three say they were obtaining supplies for their group&#8217;s annual &#8220;Doin&#8217; It for the Kids&#8221; celebration, in which pediatric burn victims compete in a series of events for the coveted &#8220;Gelly&#8221; award. </p>
|
|
314
|
+
|
|
315
|
+
<p>Sources inside the group revealed that the Gellies Local 416 chapter has been struggling financially for years. </p>

<p>Welcome to <strong>Druthers, CA</strong>! Here are some tips for making the most of your visit with us:</p>
|
|
340
|
+
|
|
341
|
+
<p>• Yes. Keep checking your mailbox. No, <em>again</em>. Faster. Now, pay it forward.<br />
|
|
342
|
+
• DO not touch the princess anywhere that her swimsuit would cover.<br />
|
|
343
|
+
• No sighing in the doughnut line.<br />
|
|
344
|
+
• Just stop tapping your goddamned foot fer chrissakes.<br />
|
|
345
|
+
• <em>Uncle Blackman&#8217;s Enthusiastic Antebellum Sprinting Adventure</em> is closed for renovation until further notice.<br />
|
|
346
|
+
• Keep a sharp eye out for &#8220;Hidden Deppies&#8221;<br />
|
|
347
|
+
• Climbing on the Leon Uris shelf is strictly prohibited.<br />
|
|
348
|
+
• No insie-outsies on &#8220;Lock-In Night.&#8221;<br />
|
|
349
|
+
• Only children under 42 inches in height are permitted to romp in <em>Erma&#8217;s Cherry Bowl</em>—and each child MUST be accompanied by a non tripping-balls parent.<br />
|
|
350
|
+
• SORRY! After June 7, 1998, Arlo&#8217;s &#8220;Shuck Bux&#8221; will no longer be honored.<br />
|
|
351
|
+
• Thank you in advance for not discussing disused aspect ratios.<br />
|
|
352
|
+
• Cut line early on rides you like. Lines are for babies.<br />
|
|
353
|
+
• The Sacristy is <strong>not</strong> there for making-out. Sacristy only likes you <em>as a friend</em>—and not actually all that much to be honest.<br />
|
|
354
|
+
• PLEASE don&#8217;t slam your locker door.<br />
|
|
355
|
+
• Q*bert ALWAYS hits on &#8220;16.&#8221; You may double-down on aces and Robotron.<br />
|
|
356

<p>We don&#8217;t know anyone who loves sushi more than we do. That&#8217;s because when we meet someone who loves sushi, we stop talking to them forever. Because we want to be the biggest sushi lovers we know.<br></p>
|
|
413
|
+
|
|
414
|
+
<p>To honor that love, we worked with a team of chefs to create signature sushi rolls for each of us. First, we went to Japan and found some masters of the form. Then we taught them English and made them listen to all of our shows, over and over, until they had distilled the essence of each of us into a roll. <!--break--><br></p>

<h2 id="bonafides">Bona Fides</h2>
|
|
448
|
+
<p>TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF <strong><em>…AND POTATO, INC.</em></strong>, A DELAWARE CORPORATION (D/B/A, &#8220;<strong><em>YOU LOOK NICE TODAY</em></strong>&#8221;):</p>
|
|
449
|
+
<p>Sui generis, and in keeping with the reductio ad lexis terms viz. the charter, bylaws, and codicils of our de jure public incorporation papers (initially filed, pro bono, on April 3rd 2008 in Los Altos, CA), The Board of <strong>YOU LOOK NICE TODAY</strong> (hereafter: <code>YLNT</code>) are legally-obligated, ex libris, to submit this admittedly awkward Letter to Shareholders. So, here goes.</p>
|
|
450
|
+
<p><!--break--></p>
|
|
451
|
+
<h2 id="onecorkonarockysea">One Cork on a Rocky Sea</h2>
|
|
452
|
+
<p>Greetings from our nominal headquarters here in <em>beautiful</em> Dover (hereafter: <code>Burlingame, CA</code>).</p>
|
|
453
|
+
<p>As we all know by now, these last sixteen months have represented a challenging but <em>invigorating</em> time for YLNT.</p>
|
|
454
|
+
<p>Like so many of the major players, we have watched with dismay as the fortunes of the market and its impotent stakeholders have spun around the mildewed bowl of our global economy&#8217;s shitter&#8211;not unlike a disappointing turdlette dispatched from the business end of one&#8217;s least-favorite child.</p>
|
|
455
|
+
<p>We won&#8217;t lie to you: hitching a ride on that particular dookie has made for a bumpy fucking ride in a stinky little skiff.</p>
|
|
456
|
+
<h2 id="lessonslearned">Lessons Learned</h2>
|
|
457
|
+
<p>But, <strong>NO</strong>, The Board of YLNT can&#8217;t and <em>won&#8217;t</em> blame &#8220;the big bad world&#8221; for all of our problems. Not entirely, anyway. </p>
|
|
458
|
+
<p>In retrospect, it&#8217;s clear that you, The Shareholders, have suffered grievously by our own shortcomings and missteps along the way. And&#8211;at least according to our surprisingly costly team of lawyers&#8211;we may be exposing ourselves to numerous litigious quagmires if we were to claim otherwise. </p>
|
|
459
|
+
<p>And, so, for a variety of tediously complex legal and personal reasons, <em>YLNT regrets the error</em>.</p>
|
|
460
|
+
<p><a href="http://www.kungfugrippe.com/post/18923395305/numbers" title="The trend line has NOT been promising."><img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3423/ylnt/ylnt-subs.jpeg" alt="YLNT Trend Line" style="max-width: 500px;" width="98%" height="*" /></a></p>
|
|
461
|
+
<p>In truth, it is now blindingly obvious that many of The Board&#8217;s reactions to YLNT&#8217;s less-than-satisfactory output were inadvisable, incurious, and, on occasion, <em>bizarre</em>, to say the least.</p>
|
|
462
|
+
<p>For example. The one well-publicized miscalculation that many have chosen to beat into the ground? </p>
|
|
463
|
+
<p><em>The bone marrow restaurant concept</em>.</p>
|
|
464
|
+
<h3 id="okay.wegetit">Okay. We &#8220;Get It&#8221;</h3>
|
|
465
|
+
<p>Sure. We all knew that opening a chain of 1,500 <strong><em>Adam&#8217;s Bone&reg;</em></strong> takeout restaurants on the same hot August weekend was a potentially &#8220;risky venture.&#8221;</p>
|
|
466
|
+
<p>And, yeah, fine, cynics will always claim that, from beginning to end, the entire project was &#8220;a poorly-conceived and sloppily-implemented boondoggle of epic and osteopathic proportion.&#8221;<a href="#fn:1" id="fnref:1" title="see footnote" class="footnote">[1]</a></p>
|
|
467
|
+
<p>For one, as we all learned by Labor Day, beef marrow sales historically suffer a precipitous plunge in the late summer of <em>every year</em>. Not something we could control. </p>
|
|
468
|
+
<p>But&#8211;<em>yes, fine</em>, we <em>know</em>&#8211;even inasmuch as our initial numbers demonstrated that most Americans will &#8220;happily hork on any shit with Adam&#8217;s face plastered on it,&#8221;<a href="#fn:2" id="fnref:2" title="see footnote" class="footnote">[2]</a> we probably should have teased out the subtle but very real response of &#8220;universal consumer disgust&#8221;<a href="#fn:3" id="fnref:3" title="see footnote" class="footnote">[3]</a> to the very notion of &#8220;choking down a beige-tan slurry of room-temperature bone meat porridge extruded into a cheap foam bowl.&#8221;<a href="#fn:4" id="fnref:4" title="see footnote" class="footnote">[4]</a> </p>
|
|
469
|
+
<p>Clearly, these data would have been far more useful to The Board had they emerged during that Spring&#8217;s costly 6-week pilot program. (Thanks for nothing there, &#8220;<em>Mall of America Meat Marketing Group</em>.&#8221;). </p>
|
|
470
|
+
<p>But, let&#8217;s not, as the philosopher said, cry over extruded slurry. </p>
|
|
471
|
+
<p>Point is: the project was less than successful, every store was shuttered by Halloween, and, yes, <em>blah blah blah</em>, out the metaphorical drive-thru window went some $80 Million in Shareholder value. </p>
|
|
472
|
+
<p>So, consequently, on the advice of counsel, we wish to publicly own up to this and many of our numerous other mis…<em>somethings</em>.</p>
|
|
473
|
+
<p>Mistakes were made. Happy now? </p>
|
|
474
|
+
<h2 id="rockbottom">Rock Bottom</h2>
|
|
475
|
+
<p>Let&#8217;s just say this, get it out of the way, and move on to bluer pastures: for well over a year now, we&#8217;ve essentially been eating our own boogers and pretending it&#8217;s Pinkberry. Stipulated. We fucked up.</p>
|
|
476
|
+
<p><em>Mea culpa</em>. Just…very, very, very <em>culpa</em>.</p>
|
|
477
|
+
<p>Problem is, we&#8217;re now <em>literally</em> out of ideas. </p>
|
|
478
|
+
<p>Well. In any case, we&#8217;re out of <em>good ideas</em>.</p>
|
|
479
|
+
<p>Obviously, the public record and your meager quarterly earnings statements both demonstrate amply that The Board&#8217;s wellspring of <em>bad ideas</em> is, for all practical purposes, unlimited.</p>
|
|
480
|
+
<h2 id="anewhope">A New Hope</h2>
|
|
481
|
+
<p>So, in desperation, <em>and</em> in doubt, <em>and</em> in literally pants-shitting fear of the imminent Shareholder lawsuit that&#8217;s been threatened by 19,236 of the more &#8220;fringe-element&#8221; jackals amongst you, we&#8217;ve decided to piss on a spark plug. </p>
|
|
482
|
+
<p>We&#8217;re going to try this one more time. Vis-à-vis:</p>
|
|
483
|
+
<p style="font-size:150%;"><strong>We&#8217;re finally returning to regularly-scheduled new episodes of <em>You Look Nice Today</em>.</strong> </p>
|
|
484
|
+
<p>Thus, starting on next Monday&#8211;and, going forward, <em>on the 2nd of every month</em>&#8211;we will release a new episode of our <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/">You Look Nice Today audio program</a> (<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/YouLookNiceToday">RSS</a> | <a href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=277928864">iTunes</a>) to The Shareholders, <strong>and</strong> to the broader public at-large, without charge, contract, or obligation. </p>
|
|
485
|
+
<p>&#8220;<strong>Dropping it on the Deuce</strong>,&#8221; our boys in Marketing are calling it. And, who are we to argue with our boys? <em>Precisely.</em></p>
|
|
486
|
+
<h2 id="michelangelosdaniel">Michelangelo&#8217;s <em>Daniel</em></h2>
|
|
487
|
+
<p>Now, please understand that, per U.S. and Delaware law, these plans and assurances are not to be regarded as &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; or &#8220;promises&#8221; or &#8220;something you can depend on&#8221; or anything of that nature. Let&#8217;s be honest, we&#8217;d just be running the risk of pinching a fresher turdlette. </p>
|
|
488
|
+
<p>But, it is <em>the</em> plan&#8211;it is <em>our</em> plan&#8211;and <strong>ALL</strong> of the three (3) Founding Board Members of YLNT are enthusiastically behind it one-hundred percent. Possibly more, pending a Supreme Court decision slated for October of this year.</p>
|
|
489
|
+
<p>Point is: while this important adjustment in YLNT&#8217;s circuitous course does naught to ameliorate those sixteen painful months of acrimony, disappointment, threats of harm, unsubscribing, unfollowing, <em>unliking</em>&#8211;plus a string of stomach-churning FedEx packages sent from one particularly persistent Shareholder whom the F.B.I. is simply calling, &#8220;Jason P.&#8221;&#8211;we do sincerely hope this helps. </p>
|
|
490
|
+
<p>Because, we&#8217;ve missed you.</p>
|
|
491
|
+
<p>And, although, we can never really make it up to you? </p>
|
|
492
|
+
<p><em>It&#8217;s a start.</em></p>

<p>We went, with some friends, into the woods. A few days later we left the woods. Our memory of the time we spent in the woods is a bit fuzzy; fortunately, someone thought to make an audio recording of it.</p>
|
|

|

|

<p>This episode is about friendship. (And some other stuff. Well, mostly other stuff.)<!--break--></p>

<p>We never would have had the chance to make this if it weren&#8217;t for our friend Jesse Thorn—the brains, gumption, and do-juice behind <a href="http://www.maxfuncon.com/">MaxFunCon</a>. So Jesse, this episode is for you. Throughout the month of May, whenever we make number three, we&#8217;ll be thinking only of you.<br></p>

<p>One last note: print this out &amp; show us your Winston face for 15% off your first Maraschino Isopropyl at Mommy Needs a Minute. Look for a franchise opening soon, in your kitchen, as soon as I find that corkscrew…<br></p>

|

<p>At the dawn of each academic year, <a href="http://bit.ly/14E6tr"><strong>East Arcadia State University</strong></a> prepares our instructors and staff by curating some facts and observations about the generational differences that are peculiar to our incoming freshman class. By understanding how the world looks to them, we hope to provide the best possible educational experience. In other words:</p>
|
|
817
|
+
|
|
818
|
+
<blockquote>
|
|
819
|
+
<p><em>How have things &#8220;always been&#8221; for East Arcadia&#8217;s incoming class of &#8216;13?</em></p>
|
|
820
|
+
</blockquote>
|
|
821
|
+
|
|
822
|
+
<p>First, let&#8217;s kick off the ought-niner MindSetter with the hard and painful facts.</p>
|
|
823
|
+
|
|
824
|
+
<p>Folks, there&#8217;s no nice way to put this: many of these kids are young and uneducated.</p>
|
|
825
|
+
|
|
826
|
+
<p>Recent data conducted by the prestigous Van Hœt Group suggests that many of the 17- to 20-year-old students who comprise the fattest part of our freshman curve are not yet 21 years old; many are barely older than 16. But, it gets worse.</p><!--break-->
|
|
827
|
+
|
|
828
|
+
<p>Van Hœt has aggregated, analyzed, and cross-referenced historical data suggesting that as late as September of 1960, at least 40% of the students entering college for the first time did not have a Bachelor&#8217;s <em>or</em> Master&#8217;s Degree &#8212; let alone the extensive post-doctorate experience we all now understand to be critical for the long-term success of dodging costly loan repayments. Today that number is over 90%. You heard right. That&#8217;s &#8220;ninety.&#8221; With a &#8220;b.&#8221;</p>
|
|
829
|
+
|
|
830
|
+
<p>So in sum, these kids are mostly under 20, completely hopeless, probably armed, frequently drunk or high on I-don&#8217;t-even-want-to-<em>know</em>-what, plus they <strong><em>already</em></strong> can&#8217;t afford the education that they haven&#8217;t received with the money they haven&#8217;t figured out how to not pay back. It&#8217;s literally that bad. Today. Here.</p>
|
|
831
|
+
|
|
832
|
+
<p>But we keep our chins up at East Arcadia. It&#8217;s one reason everyone loves scarves and complains of chronic neck pain.</p>

<p>Students entering college for the first time this fall were generally born in 1990. Some were born earlier or later than 1990. Our youngest student is a Fulbright Scholar and surprisingly robust preemie who, because he was born last week (36 weeks pre-term), will be our sole tenant in the spanking new Petri Hall. We think the nurturing culture there will suit &#8220;Li&#8217;l Jacob&#8221; well.</p>
|
|
837
|
+
|
|
838
|
+
<p>That said, for all of these students, Thomas Aquinas, Rutherford B. Hayes, and Petrarch have always been dead. Bob Hope and Guy Lombardo have always been assumed to be dead (N.B.: both are, indeed, now dead).</p>
|
|
839
|
+
|
|
840
|
+
<p>Many other people have also been dead, but space and costly mimeograph expenses preclude our typically exhaustive accounting. Thanks in advance for understanding (especially if you&#8217;re the obese tenured &#8220;atin-lay ofessor-pray&#8221; whose entirely avoidable 4th cardiac event singlehandedly sent the entire college&#8217;s insurance premiums through the roof. Keep inhaling those pork rinds, <em>Professor</em>. Sic Semper Pork something).</p>
|
|
841
|
+
|
|
842
|
+
<p>Anyway.</p>
|
|
843
|
+
|
|
844
|
+
<p>So, our big, annual question: <strong><em>How&#8217;s life always been for this year&#8217;s incoming class at East Arcadia?</em></strong></p>
|
|
845
|
+
|
|
846
|
+
<ol>
|
|
847
|
+
<li><p>Copper has always expanded when heated. Although, it&#8217;s also always been less satisfying as a snack than, say, a Hot Pocket or a slice of cold lamb with a little sea salt and a dash of fresh ground pepper</p></li>
|
|
848
|
+
<li><p>March has never been called &#8220;Burkina Faso&#8221; which is one possible reason so few of our students choose to attend Spring Break on whatever continent that place is</p></li>
|
|
849
|
+
<li><p>Phones have always had some sort of technical facility for sending <em>and</em> receiving the sound of the human voice while one is nude, dining, or just quietly masturbating to a well-loved 1978 facebook</p></li>
|
|
850
|
+
<li><p>Elephants have always been the one thing most people associate with Hannibal&#8217;s famous attack, although almost no one knows why, but they still sing that song &#8220;Baby Elephant Walk&#8221; and make really obvious <em>Silence of the Lambs</em> jokes until security arrives</p></li>
|
|
851
|
+
<li><p>Golf has always been a costly diversion for tedious white people who dislike their children, but enjoy drinking near sprinklers and pesticides</p></li>
|
|
852
|
+
<li><p>Anilingus has always been something many people of all ages are nervous to ask for (even if it&#8217;s for an anniversary or your birthday or because you literally caught your so-called &#8220;spouse&#8221; doing it to a civil servant like she was eating corn on the cob and Jesus Christ right there in your own goddamned house where your fucking kids sleep at night. Or what have you)</p></li>
|
|
853
|
+
<li><p>Laser bird shoes and the dangerous nesting boxes that are used to store their colorful waste have both always never been invented yet (for now)</p></li>
|
|
854
|
+
<li><p>Tattoos have always been more permanent and cost-effective than an equivalently regrettable t-shirt &#8212; especially given the rising popularity of the japanese symbol that someone in rubber gloves whom you just met after Tiffany&#8217;s &#8220;Sex in the City&#8221; themed engagement party while you were admittedly pretty drunk has told you means &#8220;Um&#8230;.&#8217;one&#8230;ness&#8230;of&#8230;brave&#8230;spirit&#8230;woman&#8230;hearts&#8230;and peace.&#8217; Yeah. It&#8217;s Kanji.&#8221;</p></li>
|
|
855
|
+
<li><p>Oceans have always been a sloshy, watery, unnavigable presence, teeming with dragons, non-white immigrants, and rich deposits of Lorenzo&#8217;s Oil, all floating in completely unknown locations somewhere between the better documented but much smaller big, landy parts of the continent things</p></li>
|
|
856
|
+
<li><p>Jetpacks and moving sidewalks have always been a lazy way to frame false dichotomies about society, technology, and the complex ways that resource scarcity do or do not hew to century-old pulp fiction and coloring books. Related:</p></li>
|
|
857
|
+
<li><p>Steampunk has always been a diverting way to make something pedestrian a little less useful by adding a makebelieve brass thing and some polished wood. (Don&#8217;t miss our collection of Jules Verne&#8217;s infamous &#8220;Felching Jars&#8221; and &#8220;Walnut Poppers&#8221; in the rear of the Lisagor Library, [Wing B]. Ask for &#8220;Betty&#8221;)</p></li>
|
|
858
|
+
<li><p>Three-card monte has always been a socially acceptable urban application for soiled cards and shoddy, collapsible tables. (FACT: This is why East Arcadia&#8217;s marching band still plays Joplin&#8217;s popular &#8220;Pump the Suckers then Boogie with the Booty Rag&#8221; before every football game)</p></li>
|
|
859
|
+
<li><p>For this class, mentioning the music of Mozart has always been a subtle means to evoke sophistication in a way that many people are too polite to call out as proof that the mentioner is so full of shit because did you know that <em>Amadeus</em> actually has enough plot holes and factual errors that it might as well be called <strong><em>Ooooo, Look at Me! I&#8217;m Fucking Peter Schaffer, and Apparently I Couldn&#8217;t Distinguish Mozart and Salieri from Fucking Simon and Garfunkel Unless I Had a Goddamned Flashlight, Five Viennese Rent Boys, and a Giant Bouquet of Edelweiss Up My Ass. Wheeeeeeeee, Mozart Something Something!</em></strong></p></li>
|
|
860
|
+
<li><p>Lists have always been a great way to turn a bunch of bullshit into some fast web traffic. So listen to an okay funny podcast called <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/">You Look Nice Today</a> (<a href="http://bit.ly/ylnt-itunes">iTunes</a>). As the school year begins, you can start out by learning more about East Arcadia in an episode entitled, &#8220;<a href="http://bit.ly/east-arcadia-vachina">Vachina</a>.&#8221;</p></li>

<p>No wait, that&#8217;s not it. Almost there, just after this last chorus. Seriously, I think you&#8217;re going to love the song once you&#8217;ve heard this part. What&#8217;s that, little guy? No, Daddy&#8217;s playing his new favorite song for Mommy, so if you could go over there and wait for us. Quietly. Thanks! </p>

<p>No, it&#8217;s OK, whatever. I&#8217;m not going to rewind. Really, it&#8217;s NO BIG DEAL. It&#8217;s not a big, no&#8230;it&#8217;s really not a problem. It&#8217;s cool. I&#8217;ll play it for you later.</p>

<p><strong>Seattle LIVE!: April 23, 2009</strong></p>
|
|
914
|

|
|
915
|
+
<p>We teamed up with our pals <a href="http://www.maximumfun.org/shows/jordan-jesse-go">Jordan, Jesse, Go!</a> and took the Monsters of Podcasting on the road. Our <strong>Pacific Northwest Megatour</strong> kicked off in Seattle on Thursday and finally ended in Portland, on Sunday. In between: laughs, tears, exhaustion, roadies, groupies, monkeys&#8230;typical superstar stuff. </p>

|

|

|
|
917
|

<p>In this episode, we give a little bit back to our listeners. These are tough times. Money is tight. Luckily, we&#8217;re here to help. With Adam and Merlin&#8217;s antique appraisal expertise, you&#8217;ll be digging treasures out of your crawlspace in no time.

<p><strong>ONE MORE THING</strong>: In the episode Adam briefly mentions Birdhouse, his new iPhone app. Although YLNT officially endorses BirdBath Pro Lite™ as our Twitter app of choice, we must admit that we greatly prefer Birdhouse. Learn more, watch the video, and buy the thing already:</p>

<p>If you love him you will buy it. Do you hate him? Is that why you&#8217;re still reading this? Wow, I&#8217;ll let him know. I&#8217;ll let him know you made your point, loud and clear, pal. But don&#8217;t be surprised if, late tonight, you get a call from Detective Cabintire, wondering where his whiskey money is. Don&#8217;t say we didn&#8217;t warn you.</p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/YouLookNiceToday/~4/RUGsg1xt2zo" height="1" width="1"/></description>

<p>The You Look Nice Today Writer&#8217;s Retreat is located in the bristly pine hillocks just west of Coalinga, CA, accessible via Interstate 5 or the Pook County Community Airfield. Men and women whose applications have been approved (and checks cleared) are welcome to use the retreat and its 200-acre arboretum for reflection, meditation, and vigorous masturbation. </p>

<p><a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/files/images/hernes-banner.jpg">Hernes</a>, the historic mansion where we serve supper and hold readings, towers over the cottages that dot the rest of the property. It was originally built to house a hot spring spa whose radium-based treatments drew convalescents from as far away as Kettleman City. The spa proved too costly—and too carcinogenic—to maintain, and the owners abandoned the property in 1911. We took over the place in 2005, and have kept the fire lit ever since. Come any evening between May and September and you&#8217;re sure to find a pot of Adam&#8217;s famous beluga lentil stew a-boil on the range.</p>

We learned that <em>The Smoking Gun</em> was about to publish this, so we decided to get it out there first. Someone, at some venue where we&#8217;ve performed in the past, got a hold of our performance contract&#8217;s &#8220;rider&#8221;: the addendum that spells out how we&#8217;d like the dressing room to be set up, etc.</p>

<p>Background: together with our podcast pals <a href="http://www.maximumfun.org/blog/labels/jjgo.html">Jordan, Jesse Go!</a>, we occasionally perform live as the <a href="http://monstersofpodcasting.com/">Monsters of Podcasting</a>. In fact we&#8217;ve got two shows coming up: one in <a href="http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/62750">Seattle on April 23</a> and one in <a href="http://www.bridgetowncomedyfestival.com/">Portland, OR on April 26</a>.</p>
|
|
1069
|

|
|

|

<p>We love Jordan and Jesse. We think their show is fabulous. Without them there certainly would be no Monsters of Podcasting. Are they demanding? Sure. Unreasonably so? OK, maybe sometimes—see the rider. But we love them anyway. </p>
|
|
1071
|
+
|
|
1072
|
+
<p>They&#8217;ll be criticized, maybe even vilified, for the contents of this document. But you know what? We&#8217;ll stand by them. Well, near them. Kind of close-ish. The same room. Probably. <!--break--></p>

Most people assume that silent films were silent for technological reasons—that there wasn&#8217;t a way to capture and reproduce sound along with the moving image in those classic early films. </p>
|
|
1216
|
+
|
|
1217
|
+
<p>That&#8217;s a lie: the technology was never a big deal. Directors at the time simply chose, for <i>aesthetic</i> reasons, to embrace the purity of silence.</p>
|
|
1218
|
+
|
|
1219
|
+
<p>When the Silent Film Institute<a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/story/noises-rest">*</a> asked us to create something inspired by the era of silent films, we knew we had to honor the early foley artists, those brave sound effects engineers who chose silence over noise.</p>
|
|
1220
|
+
|
|
1221
|
+
<p>Three of our best pals are foley artists, and by a fantastic coincidence, they&#8217;re working right now on a project we simply had to document. </p>
|
|
1222
|
+
|
|
1223
|
+
<p>We&#8217;ll let Evan, Lanolin, and Tiborg tell you the rest of the story.</p>

|
+
<p>Many have asked, so here is the full story:</p>
|
|
1252
|
+
|
|
1253
|
+
<p>Our opening theme music is a track called “Pony Gallop (Morning Surprise),” by the Five Senses. They were a mostly-ukulele jam band out of Montréal, famous for their 4 hour sitar/uke trance sessions and subsequent pancake breakfasts. Sadly, their CD’s were deemed “obscene” by US Customs (a clerical error, one must assume), and all copies were destroyed at the border. Worse, the band had forgotten to hold on to the original recordings. </p>
|
|
1254
|
+
|
|
1255
|
+
<p>The Five Senses finally disbanded when their entire tenor uke section disappeared while berrying in Greenland. Our possession of one tiny fragment of one song is pure luck: Merlin was working at the incinerator where the ill-fated CD’s were sent to be destroyed. He rescued one half-melted disc from the flames, and spent the next year piecing together the 1’s and 0’s—the digital scraps of the once-proud ukelele band’s magnum opus.<!--break--></p>
|
|
1256
|
+
|
|
1257
|
+
<p>That year of labor yielded the song fragment you know as our opening theme. Gallop on, proud ukulelists. Gallop on.</p>
|
|
1258
|
+
|
|
1259
|
+
<p>YLNT listener <a href="http://twitter.com/scott_h">Scott</a> heard this story of courage and dedication, and came forward with his own Five Senses artifact. He owns what might be the only physical evidence that the band ever existed: a jewel case from their legendary performance at the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal. Sadly, the music itself is lost.</p>

1930&#8217;s wandering troubadour Trinket Pills (? - 1939) scored a brief hit on the Wichita charts with his plaintive <i>Ballad of Joey Nickelpuss</i>:</p>

<blockquote><i>

But ole&#8217; Young Joe made his way.<br>

If &#8220;penultimate&#8221; meant &#8220;last,&#8221; this would be the penultimate episode of our <strong>VSOP</strong> series. Thanks again to <a href="http://www.areasofmyexpertise.com/">John Hodgman</a>, <a href="http://www.jonathancoulton.com/">Jonathan Coulton</a>, and the sturdy padlocks on the studio doors that prevented their escape.</p>

<p>This episode will be <strong>more interesting than average</strong> for: farmers, Québécoises, basket weavers, camp counselors, small business owners, and a capella aficionados.</p>

<p>This episode will be <strong>less interesting than average</strong> for: dancers, hair stylists, carnies, Renaissance buffs, vegans, and criminals.

<p>We&#8217;re not very good with money. Our accountants gnash their teeth as each promising opportunity disintegrates into a costly failure. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;re really excited about the booth we&#8217;ve been offered at the 2009 Minnesota State Fair. Anyone who&#8217;s ever been to a fair knows that you can sell anything to a chunky yokel holding his toddler on a leash. Beer mirror? Check. Giant stuffed Speedy Gonazalez? Check. No seriously, check our basement. It&#8217;s full of that crap.</p>

|

|

<p>In Parts I and II of our <strong>VSOP</strong> series with John Hodgman and Jonathan Coulton, we asked them to help us come up with a guaranteed moneymaker, something that none of the other booths at the fair would think of. They had some really great ideas. In fact, they had <em>too many</em> great ideas. We&#8217;re in love with all of them, so we need you to help us choose. <!--break-->Listen to <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/selfish-express">Selfish Express</a> and <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/faux-tog">Faux Tog</a> to learn more about the proposals, then vote below. <br></p>

<p>We&#8217;re flattered when listeners tell us how &#8220;natural&#8221; or &#8220;off-the-cuff&#8221; we sound. Dozens of men and women on our crew toil for weeks to achieve the ralaxed, conversational tone that characterizes our show. If they&#8217;ve done their jobs well, even the close listener should be fooled into thinking we don&#8217;t do any preparation at all.</p>

<p>But with so many moving parts, things don&#8217;t always go smoothly. Here&#8217;s a peek at the production journal for our most recent episode, &#8220;<a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/selfish-express">Selfish Express</a>&#8221;: </p>
|
|
1432
|
+
|
|
1433
|
+
<p><b>Oct 7</b>: With just a month before we&#8217;re set to record, Adam spills Jamba Juice on the only copy of the script, rendering it illegible. Back to square one.</p>

|
|
1437
|
+
<b>Oct 9</b>: Our team of 14 writers quits, citing &#8220;creative differences&#8221; and &#8220;promises to be paid&#8221; not being &#8220;kept.&#8221; </p>
|
|
1438
|
+
|
|
1439
|
+
<p><b>Oct 12</b>: Speech experts, whom we hire to remove any trace of regionalism or accent, infuriated Merlin by asking him not to sound so &#8220;San Francisco.&#8221; As revenge, he&#8217;s been speaking nothing but fake Spanish. In an Irish brogue. For two weeks.</p>
|
|
1440
|
+
|
|
1441
|
+
<p><b>Oct 17</b>: Acoustic modelers survey the recording studio. They recommend the building&#8217;s foundation be repoured to correct for the room&#8217;s weak sonic profile. Two days lost.</p>
|
|
1442
|
+
|
|
1443
|
+
<p><b>Oct 20</b>: Coulton and Hodgman are busy on other projects and cannot attend every rehearsal. The child actors we&#8217;ve hired as their stand-ins are pretty darned funny. Conundrum: go with the kids instead?
|
|

|
|
1445
|
+
<b>Oct 27</b>: Scott loses his voice at a NASCAR rally. Our insurance company refuses to cover the medical bills, claiming erotic massage is not a valid course of treatment.</p>
|
|
1446
|
+
|
|
1447
|
+
<p><b>Oct 29</b>: The Bolivian tin mine, whose output finances our show in lieu of sponsorships, is nationalized. Cash reserves: low. </p>
|
|
1448
|
+
|
|
1449
|
+
<p><b>Nov 3</b>: Coulton is refusing to learn Aramaic. Now we have to <i>totally</i> rewrite Act III.</p>
|
|
1450
|
+
|
|
1451
|
+
<p><b>Nov 8</b>: Dress rehearsal. We&#8217;re forced to abandon the costumes after our designer forgets to FedEx the novelty-sized pince-nez.</p>
|
|
1452
|
+
|
|
1453
|
+
<p><b>Nov. 9</b>: Finally! Recording day! Yes, we flub a few lines, forget some facts, and stumble a bit. But it&#8217;s no big deal—our impersonators can fix that in post.

It&#8217;s <b>YLNT VSOP</b>, Part I! We convened a special session in San Francisco, featuring guests <a href="http://www.areasofmyexpertise.com/">John Hodgman</a> and <a href="http://www.jonathancoulton.com/">Jonathan Coulton</a>. Aided by Hodgman&#8217;s expertise and Coulton&#8217;s hatred of poetry, we finally got to the bottom of our most lingering questions:</p>
|
|
1472
|
+
|
|
1473
|
+
<ol>
|
|
1474
|
+
<li>Why is Kevin Bacon famously <i>uncomfortable around FAX machines</i>?</li>
|
|
1475
|
+
<li>How does Adam save the world <i>by not wearing shoes</i>?</li>
|
|
1476
|
+
<li>What are the slam poet&#8217;s <i>secret romantic techniques</i>?</li>
|
|
1477
|
+
<li>Why are short films <i>so long? And also: vice versa</i>?</li>
|
|
1478
|
+
<li>Why do alfalfa farmers know so much about the <i>Renaissance</i>?</li>
|
|
1479
|
+
<li>What food is best eaten <i>deep-fried</i>?</li>
|
|
1480
|
+
</ol>
|
|
1481
|
+
|
|
1482
|
+
<p>&#8230;and many more.

Hodgman&#8217;s new book is <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/More-Information-Than-You-Require/dp/0525950346/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1224531247&amp;sr=8-1">More Information Than You Require</a></i>. The YLNT Writers&#8217; Retreat recently purchased 22 copies, one for each bathroom on the estate. The inmates—sorry, the &#8220;writers in residence&#8221;—seem to be enjoying it very much.</p>

In <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/who-voted">Who Voted?</a>, we discussed the problem of Excessive Realism in Sexual Fantasies: the growing compulsion for our Fantasy Lives to have to conform to the boring strictures of our Regular Lives. A few listeners sympathized, but one brave soul took us on an immersive tour of one of his go-to fantasy scenarios: Satisfaction Island. Sadly, due to a crippling case of ERSF, the island has lost its magic:</p>

<p><hr>

|
1506
|

<blockquote>For years I&#8217;ve had a nighttime fantasy where I&#8217;m stranded on an island with an attractive woman. We fill our days with the only activity not requiring a whole lot of equipment and learning. The sex, that is.</p>
|
|
1507
|
+
|
|
1508
|
+
<p>I revisited recently, after a long time away from Satisfaction Island. Everything went well, except I felt I had to introduce the situation by first explaining how we ended up on the island, where the others were, and how we got past the initial shock. I had to establish reliable sources of food and water, and explain why the weather is always excellent.</p>
|
|
1509
|
+
|
|
1510
|
+
<p>Then I thought about this woman. She would obviously need to give full consent—nay, approach me first—and while I can believe that she would reach out for me the very first night, looking for some comfort, I knew that this would probably make for a rocky long-term relationship.</p>
|
|
1511
|
+
|
|
1512
|
+
<p>So I had her wait a few weeks and get to know and like me first.<!--break--></p>
|
|
1513
|
+
|
|
1514
|
+
<p>Then there was the matter of my being married. I couldn&#8217;t just jump into this with my wife out there, worrying about me. But I figured we were reasonable people, and eventually she&#8217;d move on and I&#8217;d realize I would spend the rest of my life on the island. Seeing how this was a fantasy, I allowed about six months for these wounds to heal.</p>
|
|
1515
|
+
|
|
1516
|
+
<p>Then there&#8217;s the matter of birth control. It was getting late in the fantasy so I just made my island-partner infertile. That made me sad for her, though, so I tweaked it a bit; she had also come from a large family and she had always wanted to go the adoption route. Good, good.</p>
|
|
1517
|
+
|
|
1518
|
+
<p>At this point I was starting to feel a little embarrassed about the casual way in which I assumed that our food and shelter were accounted for, so I spent some time justifying how we found ourselves in a worry-free situation. The show <i>Lost</i> was very helpful here.</p>
|
|
1519
|
+
|
|
1520
|
+
<p>Between the fruit-gathering and the water-getting, I don&#8217;t think I fantasized about any actual sex. Maybe once or twice we tried, but there was sand everywhere, and it just kept getting in the way.</p>

<p>Thousands* of you wrote to us asking for Election Day guidance. Sadly, we don&#8217;t have time to evaluate every candidate in every race. Instead, we commissioned the handy <strong>YLNT Voter&#8217;s Guide</strong> you&#8217;ll find below. We recommend you print it onto waterproof paper, fold it into a tiny square, and hide it in your mouth as you enter the voting booth.</p>
|
|
1539
|
+
|
|
1540
|
+
<p>Of course, this simple checklist can&#8217;t cover every scenario. But we did try to make our guidelines as broadly applicable as possible:</p>
|
|
1541
|
+
|
|
1542
|
+
<p><strong>VOTE FOR</strong>:</p>
|
|
1543
|
+
|
|
1544
|
+
<ol><li>Yourself. If you are on the ballot, give yourself the vote. Don&#8217;t overthink this one.</li>
|
|
1545
|
+
<li>Any witch/warlock.</li>
|
|
1546
|
+
<li>A candidate who gained/lost more than 30 lbs. for a role in a movie or play. (Shows dedication.)</li></ol>
|
|
1547
|
+
|
|
1548
|
+
<p><strong>VOTE AGAINST</strong>:</p>
|
|
1549
|
+
|
|
1550
|
+
<ol><li>Anyone who has given you a venereal disease.</li>
|
|
1551
|
+
<li>John Denver. He is dead. And a folk singer.</li>
|
|
1552
|
+
<li>A &#8220;human beatbox.&#8221; Filibuster nightmare.</li></ol>
|
|
1553
|
+
|
|
1554
|
+
<p>Listen to the episode for many more helpful voting tips, including some Election Day-specific pickup lines.</p>

You&#8217;ve just hopped on the #17 Express and must quickly decide where to sit. In the back of the bus, four teenagers have staked their claim to a dozen seats. An old woman sits next to an open, delicately balanced bag of cat food. Up front, fumes rise from a guy who&#8217;s picking his teeth with what <i>might</i> be a knife. </p>

The parenting of negligence, things you didn&#8217;t know about gas stations, ancient aphorisms, tethered to a key, you go in and stay there until you have wisdom, They&#8217;ve Got It!, blue sky pie in the sky, Adam tries a little culture jam, Sunday morning habits, hot spring best practices, paddle balls, Erotic Rosary II, your first time at Uggo&#8217;s.</p>

In our most recent episode, <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/tux-age">The Tux Age</a>, Merlin sings a few bars of &#8220;Since You&#8217;ve Been Goin&#8217; Goin&#8217; Gone (to Indiana),&#8221; a 1921 Perlstein/Barreford gem. Today the average cretinous 15 year-old would recognize <em>that same tune</em> as Kelly Clarkson&#8217;s most famous hit single.</p>
|
|
1695
|
+
|
|
1696
|
+
<p>Fact: because there are only 12 tones in Western music, there are only 47 possible songs. Every pop song written today, from the melody to the rhythm to the lyrics, is merely a note-for-note cover version of one of those 47 original tunes written between 1919 and 1922. </p>
|
|
1697
|
+
|
|
1698
|
+
<p>What&#8217;s more, the original recordings of all of those songs are kept in the 3rd sub-basement of the Brill Building in New York City. </p>
|
|
1699
|
+
|
|
1700
|
+
<p>And Adam knows the night watchman.</p>
|
|
1701
|
+
|
|
1702
|
+
<p>So, in the comments to this post, suggest a well-known pop song whose original version you would love to hear. We&#8217;ll pick one of your suggestions and try to dig up that recording for you. <!--break--></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/YouLookNiceToday/~4/1rJcFYlXit8" height="1" width="1"/></description>

<description><p>After we returned from Italy, or wherever Ibiza is, none of us felt like recording another podcast episode. We were always only in it for the money, and that money still hasn&#8217;t come. Worse, our choice of an oil-powered web server has led to massive bandwidth bills. </p>
|
|
1734
|

|
|
1735
|

<p>So for the rest of the month, we put the show on hold and tried a bunch of other moneymaking ideas.</p>

A funny thing happened on the way to the waterbed. On August 1, minutes before we were set to record a fresh episode, Merlin purchased a scratch-off lottery ticket and hit the jackpot! Because of a pinkie promise we made long ago (and thankfully videotaped), Merlin was compelled to bequeath 100% of the winnings to the YLNT Trust.</p>
|
|
1767
|
+
|
|
1768
|
+
<p>We went nuts: luxury suite in Ibiza, hookers and blow for miles, Lindsay Lohan reading about <i>us</i> in whatever magazine regular celebrities read to catch up on the personal lives of mega-celebrities. Swan-shaped paddle boats.</p>
|
|
1769
|
+
|
|
1770
|
+
<p>On August 3 (there was a minor misunderstanding about how far the $1,500 jackpot would stretch) we returned home.</p>
|
|
1771
|
+
|
|
1772
|
+
<p>Then our fortunes took a turn for the worse.</p>
|

<title>Rumor of a Leak</title>

<description><p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: See the <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/story/leak-rumor">full post</a> for details.</p>

<p>There&#8217;s an unsubstantiated rumor we started that the YLNT crew is experimenting with a not-quite-daily, very-short-form, not-edited-at-all podcast-style product. Just as a short-term experiment. It is rumored.</p>
|
|
1807
|
+
|
|
1808
|
+
<p>The substantiated part of the unsubstantiated rumor is that this sub-program would not be a replacement for &#8220;You Look Nice Today Classic&#8221; &#8212; it would be an additional occasional thing. Like when Bing Crosby did those charming commercials for Minute Maid. Or something. It&#8217;s not really clear.</p>

<p>There is also an unsubstantiated rumor that you can download the first experimental episode, which is rumored to be called, &#8220;<a href="http://media.libsyn.com/media/themerlinshow/Capt._Jerry__the_Deviated_Septum_Crewe_Zoo.mp3"><strong>Capt. Jerry &amp; the Deviated Septum Crewe Zoo</strong></a>.&#8221;</p>
|
|
1813
|
+
|
|
1814
|
+
<p>I think this is what the industry refers to as &#8220;a leak.&#8221; We&#8217;re looking into where it came from. Heads will roll, and what have you.</p>

<p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: Folks, the situation is going from bad to worse. Somehow, insurance industry megacorp AIG got a hold of an unaired YLNT session and posted it on their blog. They&#8217;ve pulled the post, but now that it&#8217;s leaked we might as well share. We named this mini-ep <a href="http://media.libsyn.com/media/themerlinshow/ylntm_20080730.mp3"><strong>Actuary Starship</strong></a>.</p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/YouLookNiceToday/~4/Dc4ynUOw5ig" height="1" width="1"/></description>

<title>A Ringtone Tragedy</title>

<description><p><img src="http://youlooknicetoday.com/files/images/boop.jpg" alt="Cassingle" />
|
|

|

Last week <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/aunt-nancy">we discussed</a> some possibilities for a YLNT-branded video game. During that conversation, Merlin accidentally revealed a bit of the forthcoming game&#8217;s soundtrack. It was a pretty big mistake: the game&#8217;s soundtrack has been a closely guarded secret for months.</p>
|
|
1851
|
+
|
|
1852
|
+
<p>This morning, our carrier pigeon returned from Asia with some very sad news.</p>
|
|
1853
|
+
|
|
1854
|
+
<p>An entrepreneur in Kowloon heard the episode and turned that tiny whiff of melody into a million-plus selling cassingle. You think we&#8217;ll receive royalty payments on those sales? Ha! We&#8217;ll never see a single 仙. It&#8217;s piracy folks, plain and simple.</p>
|
|
1855
|
+
|
|
1856
|
+
<p>Worse, YLNT &#8220;fan&#8221; Neven Mrgan <a href="http://mrgan.tumblr.com/post/43037808/you-know-and-love-ylnt-right-youve-heard-their">made a ringtone</a> out of it. Worser, he put it on the internet for anyone to download. Worsest of all, it&#8217;s fantastic. </p>
|
|
1857
|
+
|
|
1858
|
+
<p>A single call to the legal team we share with NBC Universal could bury this &#8220;Neven&#8221; under a pile of C&amp;D&#8217;s. But what can we do? The music is already out there. The cat&#8217;s out of the bag. The train&#8217;s left the station. The seed&#8217;s been spilled. </p>
|
|
1859
|
+
|
|
1860
|
+
<p>So instead of suing Neven, we&#8217;ll give him a taste of his own medicine. Please take Neven&#8217;s ringtone and use it to make your own version. As an example, Scott has already made a party version of the track. </p>
|
|
1861
|
+
|
|
1862
|
+
<p>Post a link to the mp3 or flash version of your ringtone in the comments (or on Twitter) so we can all check it out.</p>
|
|
1863
|

|
|
1864
|
+
<p><b>Neven&#8217;s Original Version</b>:

<p>Here&#8217;s an <a href="http://media.libsyn.com/media/themerlinshow/boop.aif.zip">AIFF file</a> of the original snippet. The tempo is ~123.5 BPM. Use it to make ringtone history.

<p>Of course, we&#8217;re just jokin&#8217; about the Neven stuff above. He&#8217;s the greatest, and for his honorable service to YLNT has been made the very first 4-Star Salami Captain.

<p>As heard in <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/truck-spank">Truck Spank</a>, we believe that coffee shop customers have not been thinking deeply enough about their latte names. Free yourself from the shackles of what your &#8220;mother&#8221; and &#8220;father&#8221; thought your &#8220;name&#8221; should &#8220;be.&#8221; Your venti mocha cap deserves a light dusting of nutmeg, yet you haven&#8217;t thought for a second about the name the barista will scribble on its side? For shame. </p>
|
|
1973
|
+
|
|
1974
|
+
<p>So here&#8217;s the deal. The next time you&#8217;re at the coffee shop, give them a taste of your true self: &#8220;Truck Spank,&#8221; &#8220;Lex,&#8221; &#8220;Armoire,&#8221; &#8220;Rejoinder,&#8221; &#8220;Ponyboy.&#8221; Take a picture of the name scribbled on the side of the cup, and upload it to the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/ylnt/">YLNT Flickr group</a> with the tag &#8220;lattename.&#8221; </p>
|
|
1975
|
+
|
|
1976
|
+
<p>(If you&#8217;re too shy to reveal your spirit name to a stranger, you may use <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/sts/2549350074/in/pool-ylnt">this image</a> as a digital whiteboard.)

<p><strong>Sad news. See update at the end of this post.</strong></p>
|
|
2036
|
+
|
|
2037
|
+
<p>The YLNT support interns were about to discard our spare <a href="http://www.chilton-computing.org.uk/ccd/jpgs/fig5p1_86.jpg">Cray 1S</a> when <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/jobbo">Episode 6</a> gave them an idea.</p>
|
|
2038
|
+
|
|
2039
|
+
<p>They worked all night. And as the dawn spread her rosy fingers across the eastern sky, the YLNT JOBBOTRON was born. </p>
|
|
2040
|
+
|
|
2041
|
+
<p>Now, after a decade of careful testing, we are inviting the public to use the JOBBOTRON for the first time. </p>
|
|
2042
|
+
|
|
2043
|
+
<p>Answer the 5 simple questions below. Be as brief as possible. Submit the answers to <strong>[update: uh oh, see below]</strong>. JOBBOTRON will reply with the only possible career you should even consider pursuing.</p>
|
|
2044
|
+
|
|
2045
|
+
<p>If you include your Twitter username, <a href="http://twitter.com/ylnt">@ylnt</a> may announce your ideal career for everyone to see. Include a shipping address and you will receive*, FREE OF CHARGE, your actual JOBBOTRON output receipt (pictured above, decorative chain not included, colors may vary). </p>

<ol>
|
|
2050
|
+
<li>What jungle animal would make your ideal bridge partner? (Do not explain.)</li>
|
|
2051
|
+
<li>If time travel were possible (it is not), what year would you travel to?</li>
|
|
2052
|
+
<li>Abraham Lincoln, Desi Arnaz, and Bill Gates enter an IHOP men&#8217;s room at the same time. In what order do they come out? (Keep it classy, this is the International House of Pancakes we&#8217;re talking about.)</li>
|
|
2053
|

<li>Matte or glossy?</li>
|
|
2054
|
+
<li>(a) How many jelly beans are you imagining holding in your hand right now? (b) How about now?</li>
|
|
2055
|

</ol>
|
|
2056
|
+
|
|
2057
|

<p>Once you receive your career assessment (or if you have received a computerized job assessment in the past), photograph it and post it to the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/ylnt/">You Look Nice Today pool</a> with the tag “ylntjobbochallenge”. </p>

<p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: As you may have read on Twitter, JOBBOTRON ran into trouble while divining the job prospects of &#8220;Brad,&#8221; a 23-year old American Studies graduate from a Tier 3 liberal arts college, who listed interests including &#8220;baking cupcakes&#8221; and &#8220;just checkin&#8217; out the stars, like, constalations [sic].&#8221; JOBBOTRON overheated, critical parts fused, and it stopped functioning. If you submitted your request before May 21, you should have received (or will soon receive) your JOBBOTRON designation.</p>
|
|
2062
|
+
|
|
2063
|
+
<p>JOBBOTRON&#8217;s last words, which flashed briefly on its tiny red LED screen, were, &#8220;SELL ALL BEACHES. ROTTERDAM.&#8221; If that makes any sense to you, please let us know.</p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/YouLookNiceToday/~4/tOw4ZY205BA" height="1" width="1"/></description>

<p>Have you design skills and an interest in men&#8217;s uniforms? Does the idea of a very tight crotch area and optional merit badges pique your curiosity? Well, we could use your help.</p>

<li><strong>Listen</strong> to <a href="http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/ep-4-peak-hair"><strong>Ep 4: Peak Hair</strong></a>.</li>
|
|
2112
|
+
<li><strong>Make careful notes</strong> of The Talent&#8217;s requirements and preferences in a handsome Uniform </li>
|
|
2113
|
+
<li><strong>Design</strong> a flattering Uniform for The Talent</li>
|
|
2114
|
+
<li><strong>Share</strong> your visual design document with the YLNT community, via the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/ylnt/">You Look Nice Today Flickr Group</a>, tagging your design with the tag &#8220;<strong><code>ylntuniforms</code></strong>&#8221;. Feel free to point out special features of your Uniform design in the description field.</li>
|
|
2115
|
+
<li><strong>Gather and enjoy</strong> the respect of the community &#8212; including the very real possibility that your design will be made into an Official Talent Garment</li>
|

2116
|

</ol>
|

|

<p>Thank you in advance. And please keep that crotch very snug. Perhaps more snug than seems advisable.</p>
