Laughing Squid A Trendsetter Of The LOLz

Posted by admin on

Scott Beale of chuckling cephalopod fame and avowed breadpig ally, wrote a lovely piece on LOLmagnetz -- with pictures! In fact, Scott was the first person ever in the history of the world to document magnetic LOL poetry in the wild. Thus, he has a special place in the breadpig's heart. He's evidently what online marketers would call a "tastemaker." As the next 24 hours revealed some lovely linklove and even a Tweet-out. Is that a word? (Think shoutout, but on Twitter). But by far the most thorough LOLmagnetz reviewer was Heartless Doll's Bonnie Ruberg (I don't think you or...

Magnetic LOL Photographed In The Wild

Posted by admin on

Nothing is safe from LOLspeak, not even doors. Flickr user maubrowncow demonstrates this with his recent upload. And somehow we missed the http://digg.com/comedy/I_can_has_magnetz_LOLCats">LOLmagnetz appearance on digg from a month ago. I've heard that's a popular site. The best comment?

I'm not sure what Plurk is (some kind of horizontal Twitter?), but SecondArne plurked them. This kit is now even accredited apartment therapy. It was reblogged on BuzzTownCenter (I'm not sure who lives in BuzzTown, but they appear to have a gigantic robot resident) and a few dozen folks Kaboodled it, too.

It Was Breadpig's Best Week Ever

Posted by admin on

Oh yes, it was indeed a great week for breadpig. After the big launch of LOLmagnetz.com and their debut on ThinkGeek, the band went up to New York for some weekend shenanigans. I'll have some more details in the coming week, but you'll want to turn on your television-boxes to catch our upcoming reunion show. Yes, television-boxes. And to top it all off, along with all the positive press LOLmagnetz have gotten, there was more love to be shared from GeekSugar and a certain Short, Sweet, and Sassy blog
