Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis: noun. a factitious word alleged to mean ‘a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust, causing inflammation in the lungs.’ A 45-letter word so pretend, it even had a cameo on The Simpsons.
Bone Up On Anatomy
Posted: Thursday, June 24th, 2010
Many of you have written in to suggest making some sort of graphic showing where all the guts and glands live in the body, and I’ve finally gotten around to creating one. It’s even got rollovers so you can learn more about, say, your pineal gland, should you have time to squander. For the purposes of simplicity, we’ve made the body a hermaphrodite — she’s got a uterus to go with her prostate and testes! We’ll call her/him Hermie.

Gorgeous veggie body poster by the International Vegetarian Union. Love them cauliflower lungs! Reminds us of illustrator Kyle Bean’s work, in the same vein of bodily vegetables, or Italian painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo. Created by JWT Kuwait. {via Boing Boing. Thanks, Russ!}

Test For Humans

Considering the fact that I look at internal organs all day long for a living, my score on the name all the internal organs in four minutes quiz is shamefully bad. I only got 15 out of 24 total organs, isn’t that pathetic? Granted, it was mainly because I didn’t really read the directions and forgot to pluralize things like parathyroids and ovaries (and jeez, who knew the esophagus would be included, but skin wouldn’t? And they rejected spelling gallbladder as one word. I say, look it up in the dictionary, bitches). Anyway, learn from my mistakes, pluralize, and take the quiz. The clock does start ticking right away, so be ready to go when you click on the link and don’t dawdle like I did.
Shiny Sparkly Guts!
Posted: Wednesday, January 21st, 2009
We’ve got a couple of sparkly new tees coming in today, both with fabulous metallic inks, we hope you’ll like ‘em. The first, barely in time for Valentine’s Day, is a Heart of Gold tee, for ladies only. Quite possibly even more exciting is our new guts and glands shirt, which includes all the guts and glands characters — even testicles! For those of you really wanting to wear your prostate on your sleeve, this is the shirt for you. They are sorta arrayed where they are supposed to go, offering a mini-anatomy refresher when you need it.
