From College Humor, this Cthuloid cravat advice.

5 New Ways to Tie a Tie (Thanks, Gaberussell, via Submitterator!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I just streamed South Parks latest last night so this makes me think of Cartman as a cute little kitten:

‘ne, Cthulhu? meow meow meow, scratch scratch scratch!~’

Also, alas. . .I don’t have enough ties to make this work. . .

Green neckties under $4, ftw!

I lol’d . . .

but am I the only one that thought that Southpark’s Cthulu trilogy was terrible?

Amazing! I must venture out to buy a bunch of green ties immediately!
