Mila is dreaming.

While her daughter Mila has her naps, Adele Enersen imagines and makes up what her baby could be dreaming of. A beautiful baby, a good idea and adorably crafted by a very imaginative mother.

The Crazy Cat Lady action figure.

If the Crazy Cat Lady action figure was around when I was a kid, she would have defeated the G.I Joes and killed off the heroic Autobots. While that particular cat-astrophe may have been averted, the world still remains in danger unless the Sky Diving Sigmund Freud action figure comes to our rescue and questions her about her mother. Or maybe the Shakespeare action figure will bom-Bard her with his quill and destroy her. If all that fails, then the Lunch Lady action figure will come to save all of mankind by shoving her food scoop very, very far up the Cat Lady’s mastermind pussy, thus ending the reign of evil brought on by cats.

And they all lived happily ever after but wished poor, tasteless and juvenile fan fiction didn’t exist.

The Bureau des affaires typographiques is a French type foundry with quirky (and occasionally lewd) sense of humour. Other than the Le Kerning video, there are two more – La Bonne idée and Le back office.

Advice for aspiring writers…

If you really want to hurt your parents, and you don’t have the nerve to be a homosexual, the least you can do is go into the arts. But do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites, standing for absolutely nothing. All they do is show you’ve been to college.
