Amusements and Distractions
Amusements and distractions
Killings brings you our weekly selection of posts that have amused, enlightened and generally distracted us.
If you haven’t already dived in, google are giving The Little Mermaid a run for its money with their new under the sea mapping. So cool!
Oh, and during the mapping process, divers found a pygmy seahorse. Sebastian the Crab has nothing on this guy!
Back on dry land, The Atlantic take a look at writers’ favourite punctuation marks. Who isn’t partial to a dashing em dash?
Speaking of dashing: ‘A Day Spent Packing with Bill Murray in a Hotel Room’? Yes, please.
In silly/funny/fun – Bad Lip Reading tackle The Hunger Games and hilarity ensues.
Check out the undeniable chemistry in this clip titled: ‘Breakbad Mountain’. Get it, chemistry? Yep.
We think ‘The Graphic Cannon’ – where 200 literary classics will be reinterpreted into graphic form – is an awesome project. Flavorwire have a look at it.
Photos and visuals from a 1960s album cover demonstrate how records are made.
Pop Matters have a ‘Fall Playlist’ of new tunes that is also perfect listening for our Spring.
And from new to classic, here’s an amazing feat: ’2 Hours of Wisdom: A Brief History of Fleetwood Mac’ for your aural pleasure.
Enjoy!

Hello there! Quick question that’s entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when viewing from my iphone4. I’m trying to find a template or
plugin that might be able to resolve this
problem. If you have any recommendations, please share.
Thanks!
