So I was walking through B&N the other day, putting on my serious face and pretending I know how to read. Felt upscale. It took approximately 1/10th of a second for this book cover to wreck my concentration and Amtrak me to a complete stop mid-aisle.

Blue Planet RUN

With the power of goatse combined…

I’m not sure a single thing made it into my head before thinking goatse. Seriously. Having become instantly amused I went and checked out what the book really was. Turns out I (possiby you, as well) missed last year’s record setting relay run that was to raise awareness for…go read it yourself right cha: http://blueplanetrun.org/

It’s a good cause, but I am convinced they would do better by making an alternate goatse version. Myself and those like me would impulse buy that. Good coffee table book, illustrates teamwork and grabs your attention. If you’re feeling particularly flush the proceeds from the above book go to helping provide drinking water to those in need. (see what I did there?) If you have more time than money spread some awareness, maybe a goatse photochop. If you can morph that circle of water somehow into a tubgirl reference I’ll be more impressed.  I envision a group of people working together, paradoxically keeping the world together as they stretch the void. Heartwrenching.

If nothing else this book nearly prevented me from mentioning what I saw on the way into B&N: a guy vacantly staring into the starry night rapping a staccato with his knuckles on the hood of a car. Wait, that was kind of sad.
