This post should be self-explanatory. The second image is obviously the beta prototype, but the top throne has some interesting features. Note the convenient shower curtain. That’s so if for some reason you don’t make it to the top tier in time you can hose it down without splashing water into the bedroom.

As odd as these majestic sanitary seats are they’re still better than the squat holes previously featured here and here on The Overnight Open Thread.

Logorama is a 16-minute French animated film written and directed by H5/ François Alaux, Hervé de Crécy and Ludovic Houplain, and produced by Autour de Minuit. The film depicts events in a stylized Los Angeles, and is told entirely through the use of more than 2,500 contemporary and historical logos and mascots.

A tip ‘o the tarboosh to Internet Septic Tank Engineer for spotting this amazing animation from 2009. Ignore the not-so-subtle anti-American message and just enjoy it for what it is.

Grab a beverage and some popcorn because it’s Saturday Night At The Movies on

There is a legitimate reason for that warning, and it has nothing to do with noise, but a lot to do with harmonics. Dissonance rarely causes trouble, but harmonics can bring down massive structures. Today we saw a mix of both on the internest, and I don’t think that’s a bad thing.

The obvious lesson here is “Never Applaud With Your Feet.” Reinterpret that as much as you want to on The Overnight Open Thread.

While rummaging through the files of yore, I found these. Unfortunately I don’t have links to the original sources (although some may be found here).

Tonight’s OOT is dedicated to those who have been actively blocked after speaking their opinions on Twitter and elsewhere, and especially to Aaron. You peeps who’ve been following the blatant attacks on the 1st Amendment know exactly what I’m talking about on The Overnight Open Thread.
