This are serious internets

Both links full of graphical content, but no video.

First link via nancylebov: This are serious thread. If the words "lolrus" and "Orly" mean anything to you, you need to see this.

And via polonius: Parody Magic Cards, which will probably be of most interest to folks who have some actual clue about normal Magic cards.

Dear Whatchamacallit

Dear Social Security Administration:
You sent a letter yesterday informing me that you just discovered that money is owed to my local department of social services and that my last backpayment of old benefits will be held back until you receive information from the department about how much money is actually owed. Since my last backpayment was not due to be paid to me until next year anyway, I'm not too concerned. However, in January of this year, you were informed that social services should be paid out of the backpayments; and in early February, you received a cool printout from social services detailing precisely how much money was involved, carefully initialed by one of the people who initial such things.

I have two questions for you here. First: If I have to hang on to every apparently inconsequential little scrap of paper I get from you guys, why can't you be bothered to hang on to the stuff everybody agrees is important? Second: You said you'd be holding that last backpayment until you receive the info. As I said above, the last backpayment isn't due to be paid until 2008. Do you really expect my county's department of social services to take that long to get back to you? (Okay, there's a third question: You're not going to take this excuse to delay my second backpayment, are you? 'Cos that wouldn't be very funny at all.)

Dear body:
Stop acting like a drunk when we both know you're not, mmkay? I'm tired of these bruises I get from running into walls.

Dear Masterfoods USA:
You're now selling 3 Musketeers bars in mint with dark chocolate? You really do know my weaknesses, don't you?

Dear weather:
It's almost July and the expected high temperature is below 80 degrees Fahrenheit? I wholeheartedly approve. Please keep this up! (I'd ask for highs in the 60s, but I know better than to push my luck.)
