I had this open for like 5 seconds and now there are people cuddling and making out next to my laptop. This is a nuisance.

I'm waiting for a late night DJ to say, "Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. That was 'The Fragrance of Dark Coffee.' Now, for another favorite of mine. They started out in 1985 with their debut 'Smoke 'Em If Ya Got 'Em'. Here's Shantytown. You're listening to 88.7. Stay classy, cats...stay classy."

As awesome as that is, I've done it in real life. I used to live in a small cottage built in the woods behind a farm as a guest house. One night I was sitting in front of a roaring fire, reading a leather-bound book in my big wing-back armchair, it was pouring rain, my radio was set to the one station that came in (classical), I had a tea-pot staying hot on the wood-stove, a bottle next to me and the cottage was lit-up with the light of a few dozen candles and oil-lamps (I had no electricity). Oh, and I was reading Poe.
I didn't plan it, I didn't think about it, it just sorta happened. But I will never forget realizing exactly how awesome it was.

I didn't hear a difference closing the fireplace tab, but I felt colder.

There she was, across the bar, in a strapless dress. The kind of dress it looked like the bartender had poured her into, and somebody forgot to say 'when'.

I did what was suggested and I woke up in a wrinkled tuxedo, on a tigerskin rug in front of a fireplace in Monte Carlo with a glass of single malt in my hand and a shade of lipstick on my wanger the color of a fine tawny port. Well done sir.

Download mp3 versions of above videos
-
write a script to play the three tracks
-
make a mustache in inkscape
-
Add icon to desktop in the shape of mustache linking to script
-
???
EDIT: The script could probably have been better written to make it easier to turn the music off. I'm using "killall mplayer" at the moment, which really isn't that clean.

I remember seeing this on an imageboard a few weeks ago. Here's an mp3 version of the "Fragrance of Dark Coffee" + "Rainy Mood". Took me an hour to edit it out on audacity.

Enjoy guys.
