Buffy vs Edward Cullen vs tedium

Since it's Friday, this blog has been written with a view to your afternoon-slacking needs.

Maybe it was watching RPatz kark it last night in Harry Potter, but I found something oddly comforting about the following clip.

I've discussed before the creepier elements of Edward Cullen's stalking behaviour and the wet, drippiness of Bella Swann, so how about matching up the teenage blood-lust of Twilight's Edward with a girl who stands for no vampirical shenanigans?

Here's a nicely edited depiction of how a real girl would deal with the dreadful pick-up lines of Eddie the vego vampire.

For something completely different...

Here's the resonantly voiced Peter Serafinowicz (as seen in Black Books sending Fran into a tizzy - "Frraaaannn! I'll come over! I'll come!" - and as the grumpy flatmate Pete  in Shaun of the Dead) doing 50 impersonations of non-celebrities in 2mins.

Most notable for anyone who's hung out in Christchurch's Cathedral Square is spotting that the character dubbed Sir Nigel Nigelford in the clip is in fact Ian Brackenbury Channel, best known as The Wizard. Peter gives an impression of Gandalf to go with his image of Christchurch's resident mage, which may not be far off the mark...

I wonder if anyone's told The Wizard about this? Somebody really should. (In the small world stakes, his fiancee was my tutor in Art History at varsity one year. Lovely woman.)

But I digress from the other divertissements of the day.

For something that'll have you snorting your lukewarm coffee through your nostrils from the schadenfreudean hilarity of it all, check out the best (or should that be worst) fails of 09.

No, don't thank me.

I've gotta say, that's one of the best examples of transformative storytelling serving as a pro-feminist visual critique that I've seen today.
