Here are some photos of celebrities without makeup, and some scary Photoshopped ones. Speaking of scary Photoshopped celebrities, check out this Michael Jackson soundboard, and the prank phone calls people use these soundboards to create. Also, visual artists create imaginary album covers for favorite musical artists. If that made sense. And Something Awful posters try to 'intellectualize' rap lyrics. These last links are all via Hip Hop Commentary.

Also, via Mefi, Negativland's Mashin' of the Christ, and 2000 election results correlated to average IQ.

Update: Here is another Mashin' link, to bittorrent downloads

And some Slate stuff: a review of digital versions of the newsprint versions (yeesh) of the NYT, Washington Post and LA Times. And two 'Friends' articles, one about how something so un-ironic became palatable and one about how sitcoms became soapcoms. In the interest of full disclosure, I should say that Slate is owned by Microsoft, and I really only started visiting it when Salon went premium. Also, I don't think Friends is particularly good. But, y'know, people love it. I can't wait to see what kind of sales the quickie DVD release of the finale racks up.
