Ok, has anyone tried selecting the text on that blog? The effect made me feel as though I was drunk. Why does it do that?

Because for some reason they have applied a text-shadow effect with a colour of #fff (white). So normally it is invisible against the also white background, but once you select you put the selection colour behind it causing the shadow to show up.
