New Year's Eve

Ey@el12/31/2015Song Lyrics No comments

The blasted grin-fucking rituals and their assorted packs of wino resolutions that don't make it past the usual bafflegab hangover of the morning after! In an effort to minimise the potential damage and step into Year #9 (2+0+1+6=9) with a somewhat raised vibration, here's...

Spectre

Ey@el12/26/2015Artwork, Movies, Song Lyrics No comments

Last year we were asked to write a theme tune for the Bond movie Spectre. Yes we were. It didn't work out, but became something of our own, which we love very much. As the year closes we thought you might like to hear it. Merry Christmas. May the force be with you. Radiohead,...

Merry Christmas Exclamation Point

Ey@el12/25/2015Humour, Song Lyrics No comments

A bit like fellow countryman Jim Carrey, Canadian comedian/actor/singer Jon Lajoie, presented to you earlier this year, is not shy about exaggerating and overdoing his satires. This is the way he gained his fame in North America (but also in Germany) mostly from his parodical...

Hot Santa (Cool Bunnies)

You make me dizzyYou're my personal carouselIt's always party timeWhen you hold me in your arms"Mon manège à moi", Edith Piaf (1958) According to tradition, Christmas gifts should not be unwrapped until 25th December, but no specific mention is made regarding Santa,...

Kids Were Asked if a Woman Could Be Santa Claus, the Response Is Alarming

Ey@el12/23/2015Traditions No comments

A last-minute article that simply couldn't be published at any other time (so be it and never mind the overdose). Certainly it's mainly about the USA, but we all agree that it's no better over here. Since we're just in the midst of this “Christmas magic” frenzy (don't start...

Letter to Father Christmas (3)

Ey@el12/22/2015Traditions No comments

Hey! I may not be a celebrity (suits me fine), however I still have the right to write and publish my own letter to Santa. So here comes as promised. Dear Father Christmas, Quite frankly, I just can't remember when was the last time I wrote you — for all that I have some doubts...

Letter to Father Christmas (2)

Ey@el12/20/2015Traditions No comments

No surprise, this is the second part of Friday's post. As you know, other celebrities than Thom Yorke also sent a letter to Santa this year, but none caught my attention as much as Russell Brand's who sort of literally took the words right out of my mouth. Well, almost, that...

Letter to Father Christmas (1)

Ey@el12/18/2015Traditions No comments

Clearly, Thom Thumb is much in the news of late. Not only did he sneak his way into the Yule Ball in Hogwarts last Tuesday and came over to bust the asses of our world leaders in Paris last fortnight (obviously all in good faith and pure ignorance), now our climate cooling...

Children Get Angry After Publication of Cartoons Deemed Offensive to Santa

Ey@el12/16/2015Humour No comments

OSLO - The news prompted quick reactions. The publication by an Iranian newspaper of cartoons mocking Santa Claus instantly angered many children in European countries, including Norway and Finland who found these caricatures offensive as they ridicule Santa mostly regarded...

Good morning Mr. Magpie,How are we today?And now you stole it, all my magic,Took my memories."Morning Mr. Magpie", Radiohead (2011) Upset that he wasn't invited as a guest star for the Yule Ball unlike his bandmates Jonny and Phil1, Thom Thumb ultimately went to great lengths...

Wish You Could Smile

Ey@el12/13/2015Song Lyrics No comments

With the holiday season drawing near, melancholia tends to set in. As if time looped in on itself and nothing really changed whatever you say, whatever you do, however hard you wish or try to picture it. So we try to fake it, flapping all over the place, expecting laughter...

Chris Might Soon

Ey@el12/11/2015Poems No comments

Chris might soonLose his wingsOn the way down from heavenTo the man-made realmOf fallen angels Struck in their flight,Where gravity as usualTakes its toll,Weighing you down,Pulling you down,Lower and lower Below ground,Beyond reason,Into oblivion. Chris misses muchLife, but...

The Climate Change Scam, What It's REALLY All About

Ey@el12/09/2015Environment No comments

A new videocast by David Icke (excerpt available online since 4th December) I was almost looking forward to as I knew it could only deal with the current ultra-sensitive issue even highly intelligent and well-meant people easily fall into. No surprise in there, but it rather...

The Belgian Feline Felon Network

Anti-terrorist encirclement operation. Belgians know how to defend themselves. SCOOP ALERT to all media! Exclusive pictures of the operations for sale... As you know, on 21st November, Brussels was locked down on red terrorist alert. So people have been twitting... Kudos...

Paris Attacks: We Terrify You and Then We Do What We Want

Ey@el12/03/2015Social Engineering No comments

I know we keep hearing about the Paris attacks ever since that ill-fated day while no black cat will ever dare showing its whiskers up anymore for fear of getting lynched by the hypnotised mob turned vengeful by the mind-screwing box and the fake love vibes straight out of...

How to Blink Eyes

Ey@el12/03/2015Animation No comments

As promised in my previous tutorial, I shall try to teach you how to graphically blink an eye from a single still image. For that, you'll need some graphic software (I've used Paint Shop Pro X) and Animation Shop or any other program with which you can create animated GIFs...

Ey@el12/02/2015Humour No comments

Paris, Place de la République - Personal drama played out for young CRS (riot police officer) yesterday as he got seriously injured by a flower petal while opposing overtly peaceful demonstrators. At this point it is too early to know exactly what happened, but police headquarters...

Deadly Fascination

Ey@el11/29/2015Artwork, Beliefs No comments

This animated tag was designed years ago and adapted from Titoune's "Goth Love" tutorial (only available in French, Italian and Spanish). Let's say it's a good spoiler for tomorrow's Eklabugs themed article that unfortunately will only be available in English. You may forget...

“Horrible & Numbing”: Chilling Testimony From U.S. Air Force Drone Operator on His First Kill

Ey@el11/27/2015Social Engineering No comments

I do know how depressing this all can get and I, by no means, intend to ride the wave and thus feed the egregore. However, I'm not folding to see the actual hand revealed nor playing my fool card in hope that the suit might change on the next trick (ever heard of the poker-tarot...

The World According to Gates: Dialog Blocks

Ey@el11/25/2015Humour No comments

When Windows talks to us, binary language may sometime translate into nerve fraying and usually end up with either machine or human freaking out. It is probably the reason why transhumanists are planning to microchip us and thus improve our breed to ensure equality and so that...
