About Fluffy McGiggles

Greetings, reader! I am Fluffy McGiggles. In my world, I was an actress of the strongest sort, the melodramatic sort. Recently, I find myself confined to this... website, as its anthrompomorphization and personality. The Webmaster and I have a bit of a dispute as to how this should be run. The Webmaster can change anything I do, but I can also change anything the Webmaster does. However, the Webmaster can also delete me at will. So that means I'm temporarily behaving myself. This is my own choice, however, contrary to anything The Webmaster may say. So, don't blame me for the over-the-topness of the website. You have been warned.

I doubt you will “really like” this semi-update

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

I am more than a bit surprised. Somehow, the “I really like you” song has managed to get even fluffier. It now has a music video. A very pointless music video.

You see, unlike most music videos, the song “I really like you” does not even try to make it seem plausible that the main person in the video is the one singing the song. Instead, the video features Tom Hanks as the “singer” for much of it.

Of course, all of my other points still apply.

I hope you have a good week.

Cats can see things.

Greetings, readers!

Scientists have discovered an explanation for some weird cat fixations. Apparently, they have a different range of vision than humans do. Although this has been long suspected (from what I can tell), it has apparently only recently been supported scientifically.

I thought it was interesting.

Have a great weekend.

New Relatively Pointless Song is likely to go Viral

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

It appears that the Webmaster originally scheduled something about Twitter for today. It can wait.

You see, there is a new song out. It has the potential of going viral at any point in time. It is already receiving publicity from multiple relatively unrelated groups.

The song in question is by Carly Rae Jepson, the creator of “Call Me, Maybe”. Her new song is called “I Really Like You.”

I have a few comments about it, of course.

The first deals with timing. I find it interesting that Carly Rae Jepson released this one in… March. February, after all, is the month of “love.” February 14 would have made a bit more sense for “I really like you” to be released, from a thematic perspective. However, since this song is still being picked up, and is likely only going to gain in popularity, it should not be much of an issue.

This does lead me to my second point, however.

I found it very interesting that the singer acknowledges that she does not “love” the person she is singing about, but instead “really (really … really) like you [the object of the singer’s affection.]”

As per usual with popular songs that go viral, it has a catchy tune. It also does not have much in the way of depth to its content.

Needless to say, “I Really Like You” by Carly Rae Jepson is not my favorite song, but it qualifies as a fluff of the day.

I hope you have a great week.

Yesterday’s Virality

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

In case you were unaware, a new trend went somewhat viral yesterday. It dealt with what color(s) a particular dress was.

Well, readers, I am pleased to inform you that Wired has an explanation for why the controversy was so controversial.

**Update** Thanks to a reader, I am now aware of the XKCD comic that perfectly illustrates the controversy. The comic is worth viewing. I double-checked, using some of my resources, and yes, in fact, the colors of the “two dresses” are identical.

The “mouseover” text is also worthwhile.

I hope you have a good weekend!

A Thought About Winter

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

From what I have gathered, many of you are facing a severe winter. For that, I offer you my sympathies.

Similarly, many of you seem to hope for an early Spring. That made me start to think, however– how do we know that Spring has not already arrived? What I am saying is, how do we know that Spring did not arrive before Winter did? Maybe it was simply traveling faster than usual, and happened to outrace Winter.

In other words, be careful what you wish for. Maybe an exceptionally early spring is not the most beneficial of all things that could happen, after all.

Happy Sunday.

Guide to Watching Star Wars — “Machete” Order

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

It was recently brought to my attention that there are multiple ways in which one can watch the Star Wars movies. One that struck me as very interesting is the proposed “machete order“, which completely eliminates “Phantom Menace” from the play list. The author points out, (correctly, in my opinion) that Episode 1 does not actually contribute anything to the overall story arc of the Star Wars saga, and thus it can (and should) be removed from Star Wars Marathon order.

The entire analysis is interesting, so I encourage you to read it.

Have a good Thursday.

An Overcompensation for the Sweetness of Last Week

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

In part in “honor” of the majority of last week’s posts, and in large part to compensate for the overdose of sweetness on the blog recently, here is a video I found amusing. (I would suggest listening until the song’s end.)

I hope you have a good week.

Valentine’s Roses… of Bacon.

Greetings, readers!

I have good news for you. I am inserting my own post into the Webmaster’s Valentine’s Themed posts, and therefore you will not be subjected to another love-song video today.

Instead, I found an interesting project that, if I were able to, I would want to try at some point. It is instructions on how to make a bouquet of bacon roses.

Enjoy.

There are instructions for making ice.

Greetings, readers!

Your world… I honestly do not know what other world would create tutorials for making ice cubes.

But such things do exist, due to your world.

So, I hope you have a cool rest of your week.

Happy Tuesday. Wednesday. Thursday. Thanks, Webmaster…
