My Biggest Regret in Life...
Is not buying one of these kawaii dancing cats for the BuzzFeed office. Not to toot my own horn, but I do a pretty good version of this Cat Dance.
Japanese ROFLcat Toy
This is a cat toy I found on the magical Miyajima Island of Japan, home to sacred shrines and awesome cat toys.
A Thorough Response to a Stupid Facebook Update
If you ever find yourself stranded on a desert island with boxes of cornflakes and 6 chickens, you now know EXACTLY what to do (give or take the last eight paragraphs).
The Japanese Uncle Sam
When we spotted this in Japan at a souvenir shop, my heart swelled up with patriotic pride. It's cool that other countries perceive America to be synonymous with freedom, and fried chicken.
The Saddest Place in Japan
On my recent trip to Japan, I realized that Japan is maybe the happiest place in the world. There's no crime, there's cute little faces on everything, even the fire trucks look like adorable little toys you want to pick up and play with. That is, until we took a trip to the Himeji Zoo, aka Sadness Island.
Cyclops Baby
A photo found from a medical case report of agnathia holoprosencephaly complex.
That Band Is Definitely from Brooklyn
MGMT probably don't get their faces painted by crashing little kids' birthday parties, but we do.
Travel Pussy UNBOXED!!!
We bought a travel pussy from a vending machine in a German gas station to go with that vibrating cockring. I was kind of expecting something a little more high-tech, but this'll do, I guess.
The Dong Bong
Here's a photo from our night in Amsterdam. Oh yeah, that's Alex in case you couldn't tell.
Kurt's Alanis Impression
We were doing our best Alanis and Barenaked Ladies impressions in the hotel in Amsterdam. Kurt really "won me over" with this rendition.
Cute French Boys Watching Me Blow My Nose
Drummer Kurt Feldman captured this key moment when I turned around to blow my nose during the show in Toulouse, France. I'm like the Disaster Girl of indie rock shows.
I Made Up a New Dance
Me and my friend Shirley dancing to DJ Shadow. We waited for 3 hours in Milan for the stage to be set up before we could sound check, so I entertained myself by making up retarded dances. I think maybe I'll call it Hunchback Skanking. Or maybe it should be called the Mint Milano, because we were in Milan, and the park we played at was very green.
One Night in Paris
I finally got eiffel-towered!
Primavera!
Our drummer Kurt took this photo from his drumset right before we were about to play at the Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona. Mostly we've been playing small clubs around Europe, so taking the stage and seeing this crowd of people was pretty surreal. About 15 feet behind this audience is the ocean. This was probably one of the most fun nights of my entire life. It involved dropping lots of acid and Jarvis Cocker! No, just kidding, but seeing Saint Etienne was totally epic, and walking by the water eating nachos at 3am was cool, too.
Summer Reading
I'm literate! Here's what I'm reading in the van when not staring out the window and thinking about nothing.
Kurt's Top 10 Most Addictive iPhone Games
When Kurt isn't drumming, exhibiting childlike enthusiasm for exotic Haribo candies, or flicking Alex's ear, he's usually seen totally engrossed in his iPhone. Here are his picks for most addictive games.
Buckfast Wine
This 15% alcohol fortified wine made by Benedictine monks will get you waaaaaasted (gaysted?)! We know, we had some in Glasgow, Scotland. It also has really good wasted nicknames, like "Commotion Lotion" and "Wreck-the-hoose Juice."
Vibrating Cockrings
They were selling vibrating cockrings in the vending machine at the club we played at in York! We knew it would be one very long month of touring if we didn't get one of these.
Ask ChaCha!
Text ChaCha a random question and post the answer that you get back. We want to believe in the infinite wisdom of ChaCha!
This Is How You Know You've Made It
An indiepop band autographs a set of boobs in Pontiac, Michigan. For the Pains of Being Pure at Heart, this is probably the apex of their short-lived musical career. It all goes downhill from here.
