You'll be as happy as a hooker at a hot dog stand

Who doesn't love finding some stranger's notes or drawings lying around? I remember when I was 13 finding, on the stairs at a hotel, little scraps of notebook paper that I tucked into my journal. I imagined some cute boy with floppy hair, a nerdy cardigan and a superior intellect who was just looking for the girl of his dreams (me!) had left them behind. I don't know why I imagined this, especially because the notes were not in any way indicative of some superior intellect. If I remember correctly, one of them said "Will you meet me sometime and share with me the correct way to wear a wig in summer?"

Anyway, this curiosity into other people's minds and lives is why Found exists. It's why I love the Detective Stories episode of Radiolab more than any of the other ones (Short recap: A man and a woman are traveling down Route 101. Suddenly, the woman tells the man to pull over, because she just saw a goat standing on top of a cow. It takes come convincing, but finally, he turns the car around to go back to that field, and lo and behold, there is a goat, standing on top of a cow. They get out of the car, to get a closer look, and find hundreds of letters along the road. They forget all about the goat and the cow and start picking up all the letters that they can find. Turns out they were all written by different men to one woman ... ). And it's why, of all the wonderful passive-aggressive notes on passiveaggressivenotes.com, THESE are the best ones. You can really piece together a strange history there.

If you're into found notes like I am, you'll be as a happy as a hooker at a hot dog stand.


Another thing to be incredibly happy about: a pseudo-Seinfeld reunion on Curb Your Enthusiasm. As if it wasn't great enough already that Curb is coming back for another season, we now have a fake Seinfeld reunion to look forward to as well!

And as if HBO wasn't great enough already? There's a new show, Bored to Death, coming in September with Jason Schwartzman (I Heart Huckabees!) and Zach Galifianakis (best-known for the Hangover, but really, Between Two Ferns is better). The trailer for the show promises Kristen Wiig (Brahbrah!) and Parker Posy (the original Party Girl!) as well! Why can't all TV just be HBO and Showtime? Are the other channels (ok, ok, with the exception of Lost and Mad Men and 30 Rock and It's Always Sunny) doing ANYTHING worth watching?

Speaking of Lost, Charlie is coming back!

Looking for a job? Put your resume on your tshirt! You never know when you might be standing in front of someone who would like to hire you!

I feel bad for this guy thinking a mango-flavored candy is as good as a real mango. Even if it is Japanese (they make all the best candies!), he obviously has never eaten a mango plucked off the tree from someone's yard in Miami.

And last but not least, the mustache has been rescued from the clutches of hipsters everywhere and been repurposed as a means of political protest by the Brazilians. (an English explanation can be found here)
