This week on the altar we worship (naturally with candles and statuary and the like)
The Power of the 54 Minute Restorative Schluf (that’s Mittagspause for you non-Yiddish speakers and Afternoon Nap for the rest of you)

Worship/salute/light a candle/take a nap. How you interact with The Altar Ego is up to you. Next week: William Safire.

And anyway there are apparently already a couple of yurt-related schplogs in the queue. God, is that how you spell q? I can’t mind my ps and qs.

Mind yer pa. Not yer Ps and Qs.

I must tell you about the all-time best tagline for a yurt business: “If you are not in a Yurt, you must be Square.”

(I’m not making this up — www.yurts-r-us.com)

Boy, are they clever. We should hire them to schplog for us. Or at the very least to come up with a better tagline for the schplog. How about, “If you are not a flirt, you must not be Baudelaire.”

Whaddya think?

We peruse kitlers, submitted our Kossack Cat (rejected) to “I can has cheezburger?” and generally are happy to just be alive for this grand epoch of Interwebbery. Did we mention that there are kitler macros now too?

But our new favorite line is “Mah _______, Ah bleev you have it”, based on this delightful little guy.

Be warned. We cannot stop making this joke.

Thus far we have schplogged (mostly successfully):
emperors (with and without clothes)
foods of various types
tom swifty haikus

Not to mention various other little pun-oriented bitlets.
Ah, the wordishness of it all!

Just as we did with schplog #100, we are determined not to say anything even remotely funny in this historical post. Every hundred or so we give you a break.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Of course neither did he. Wait, of course we knew that. Never mind.

But anyway, guess what I just found over on kottke.org deep in the archives? A brilliant take on Alanis Morissette’s “Ironic”!

Read and admire it RIGHT HERE and then come back and add some of your own. Here is my contibution … come on, schploggers!

It’s like 10,000 screams when all you need is a yawn.
What’s the point of a tantrum if it’s soon to be gone?
And isn’t it hystrionic … don’t you think?

It’s like 10,000 smart-ass remarks when all you need is a smirk.
Like thinking you’re funny, but then realizing you’re a jerk.
Isn’t it sardonic … don’t you think?

It’s like 10,000 chefs when all you need is some dude.
Like thinking it’s about culture when it’s really just food.
And isn’t it gastronomic … don’t you think?

Here were all the words on the board.
