Friday Night Link Dump.

Edit: When you click on links, open them in a new window or tab.

This is one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. A Dutch photographer stood on street corners in NYC for two weeks at a time and took pictures of the passers-by and then made composite images in Photoshop. It's mindblowing.

This one kinda pisses me off. I get horrible migraines, as do my brother, mom, and boyfriend. And my boyfriend has fibro pain almost daily. So, yes, pain happens. The fact that anyone would think I would lie about something like that just upsets me so much.

Over at Pandagon, there's a fantastic piece about the tradition of engagement rings. As I'm sure I've mentioned here, I'm a sucker for the sparkly, but at the same time, it seems slightly out of date for my future fiance to spend more money than we have on an engagement ring. I don't like the idea of being marked as someone's property if I don't get to mark him back. That's partly why we've talked about getting similar (maybe matching) tattoos. We're going to probably get some sort of something so that when we say "hey, we're engaged," we have something to show. As much as I wish it wasn't the case, people assume things if the guy didn't get you a ring. Whatever we do, it'll be something special and unique for us.

Finally, Friday video time. This pisses me off so, so much. zomg teh gaysss! (Also, the older gent teaches drama at my high school. DRAMA.) But here's the funny--the Funny or Die parody, A Gaythering Storm.
