Those folks on the other side of the pond are just so witty, are they not? As someone who does not own a Wii and does not find it as amazing or entertaining as everyone else, I found this to be particularly funny. My typical response when asked to play Wii? ‘We would NOT like to play!’ Followed by me laughing at my own joke. Get it? Like the commercial? I am hilarious! While goofy, the video (brought to us by Idiots of Ants) does touch on something bizarre about our culture– our need for all those pointless games and silly controllers. I mean, if anything, don’t you just love the accents?
So don’t get too disappointed that the game is fake. I would like to see it exist for one scenario alone: if Mallory were to play, she’d make one hell of a breakfast sandwich.

Perhaps some of you care, perhaps you’re just looking for another reason to party– an alcoholiday, if you will. (I came up with that on Fat Tuesday, appropriately enough. I’m sure someone else has thought of it before. I’d never heard it. I want credit.) As if a snow day wasn’t enough of an excuse, I’m pleased to tell you that it’s Dr. Seuss’ birthday! The king of the AABB rhyme scheme, whose real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel, would be 105 today. I’m sure if he were here with us, the Great Birthday Bird would pay him a visit. Heavens to Betsy! You don’t know about the Great Birthday Bird? Well, I’ll let the good Doctor do some explaining:
