summer: one of those words that look ridiculous if you concentrate on them for five seconds

Alt85 got all summery this week.  Lots of pictures.

So OK: Decision 2008!  Your favorite post of the week!  Vote or die!

1. Our quick look at the hidden connections between things (e.g., girlfriends)!
2. Our harrowing run-in with some kind of sex pervert, and the consequences thereof!
3. Our quick and decisive attack on that three-headed monster: faulty parallelism, high fives, and the current decade!
4. Our reminder of the insoluble bonds joining breakfast and pornography!
5. Our delight in two (one and two) local dermatologists' subway ads (brought to you by grammarsluts.com)!
6. Our thoughtful comparison of the (mythical?) "Nobama" voter and your garden-variety extraterrestrial predator!
7. Our recognition of Aldo Shoes for putting the "Freud" back in "fuck-me boots"*!
8. And a big heavy one for old times' sake, about, I don't know, the true meaning of Xmas or something.

* Actually, I don't know—are those fuck-me boots?
