Miscellaneous humour

Firstly, from Tim Bray:

Which is to say, Anthony Lane’s triumphant trashing of Revenge of the Sith is a masterpiece, and we are all in George Lucas’ debt for giving Lane such a monumental and soft target. Lane is purely and unapologetically mean-spirited, punching gleefully well below the belt and connecting with every blow.

Secondly, a bumper sticker I saw today:

My wife gives me sound advice. 99% sound, 1% advice.

This joined its sticky friend, Lost cat? Try looking under my tyres. Tasteless.

I'm all about the Metric at the moment (which inexplicably appears not to have been released in the UK yet…). What a cracking album.

Update: sorry, I just had to add this quote from the review.

The young Obi-Wan Kenobi is not, I hasten to add, the most nauseating figure onscreen; nor is R2-D2 or even C-3PO, although I still fail to understand why I should have been expected to waste twenty-five years of my life following the progress of a beeping trash can and a gay, gold-plated Jeeves.
