This is totally not a bookmark to find out WTF this is later...

I'll have some of whatever she's having.

Green?

Really?

She's so cute!

 
the_pgoat [TotalFark] 2008-11-04 10:17:41 AM  
I'm so glad she had kids. She's so imaginative and curious. I will always adore Bjork.

So, bottom-line, don't let poets lie to you about how technology works, and there will be much rejoicing.

 
caledonian [TotalFark] 2008-11-04 10:22:24 AM  
I did like the bit about the capacitors on the boards being like little cities though :)

Isotope: She's so cute!

I agree. I am signing up for her newsletter. I feel much better about things.

Or maybe I'll stalk her and then keep her as a pet.

I wish I looked that good straight out of bed.

/She's straight out of bed isn't she? Surely no one would want their hair too look like that normally

Just stepped in to post my obligatory Iceland pics I took when I lived there..

You know, with the Krona plummeting like it is, you could pick up some cheap tix and go visit!

Of course this time of year it's not going to be quite so lush and green....

Oh, and if you have a thing for Icelandic girls, check out this video of some hottie quadruplets who just celebrated their 20th birthday.. 3 blondes, a brunette, and some nice juggies!

I expected a whole box of crazy but what I got was an interesting description of what a TV does from a non-technical person.

I'm not sure if it has value, but as someone has already said, she is quite cute.

 
SushiJoe [TotalFark] 2008-11-04 10:41:53 AM  
I blame Bjork

 
Control_this [TotalFark] 2008-11-04 10:55:36 AM  
Holy crap she has some weird music videos. Here's the 2nd one I clicked on. Weird red strings growing out of her nipples. Cocoon. NSFW.

 
Beatle_Matt [TotalFark] 2008-11-04 10:58:18 AM  
Best. Bjork. GIF. Evar.

Not really NSFW. She's wearing a skin-tone full-body leotard thing. With painted on nipples. Sorry to disappoint.

But okay, I have seen people fired for less.

Wow, you must have a REALLY lax dress code where you work!

Saw her at the Hollywood Bowl a few years back with string sextet and Matmos, fireworks. Seats so good, Macy Gray was sitting behind me. Best. Show. Evar.

 
saintwrathchild 2008-11-04 02:00:25 PM  
I used to be afraid of TVs, but thanks to Bjork I have seen the pixels and am not hypnotized nor do I trust poets. All glory to the Bjork.

Man, that is one weird sounding language. Start with Swedish, add an upper-class castillan lisp. Then really screw it up with random growls and flute sounds.

Think "Drunk German speaking old english" and it's a little easier to understand..

 
Tony_Pepperoni 2008-11-04 03:17:30 PM  
I just wanted her to touch the pins on the back of the CRT and get zapped...

 
kinokosama 2008-11-04 04:53:19 PM  
She really is a cutie pie! So adorable!

When I first saw that video back in the Sugarcubes era, that's when I fell in love with Björk.

Would bang. Also, she created one of the best albums of the 90's in Homogenic. So, yeah. Also, to whomever I can't be bothered to scroll back up to see your name with the Iceland pics, wow, those are incredible. The quads are incredible too.

 
wombatG111Y 2008-11-04 10:18:15 PM  
that was adorable.

 
SuperCatBarf [TotalFark] 2008-11-05 12:46:54 AM  
This is old. She is so adorable. I chuckle when she kick ass, just because it's like a panda or something just as wild going ape. People think it's cute, then...teeth & claws. But still so adorable.

 
Zombie Hitler 2008-11-05 01:11:32 AM

Ahhh.

 
Galaxy of Prawns 2008-11-05 06:15:31 AM  
Awesome video. Until a few years ago, female vocalists really didn't appeal to me. Bjork helped change that, along with Joanna Newsom. Women pop musicians seem so much more likely to be geared towards the lowest common denominator that it's refreshing to hear unique voices and inventive arrangements coming from them.

 
yarnothuntin 2008-11-05 06:44:48 AM  
I kind of got nervous when she was touching the back of the CRT. I just kept thinking "watch out for the flyback!"

 
LewDux 2008-11-05 08:51:03 AM  

 
One_Cent_Tenth_Spatula 2008-11-05 11:42:39 AM  
I wish I could have her problems, always getting haddocks when she watches TV. That would certainly be a refreshing time to enjoy.

 
madcan34 2008-11-05 01:37:05 PM  
See that big red wire that attaches to the back of the tube?

That part that looks like a big suction cup?

Grab onto that and whatver you do DON'T LET GO!!!

Let me know what happens.

 
zaftiggy 2008-11-05 02:34:11 PM  
Cute eh? Sure!! If cute means having explosive diarrhea describe secret cities of television technology living in the wires. I'm just not high enuf for this one.

 
MDGeist 2008-11-05 02:35:22 PM  
Maybe I missed something, but why do we have to see those pictures in every Bjork thread markie_farkie?

Well it's every Iceland thread usually.. It's a cool country and I just like to share!

It's a very cool, and very photogenic country. And weird, got to mention the weird.

Also, those quad lasses: Would hit. My word yes.

Bjoerk = The Midas Touch of Weirdness. Is it possible to sleep with someone who everything that they touch turns to weird?

 
Badgers 2008-11-07 12:13:22 AM  
Touching the main capacitor could have possibly reset her brain into a useable state...
