Does this even seem safe to you? I guess in the UK, since they’re all worried about the child obesity epidemic, to feed off parents’ fears that their kid will end up going to Fat Fuck High, there are now chains of baby gyms where babies as young as four months old can start doing …

Living Rooms And Room For The Dead?
Ok, hopefully someone can explain this one to me. I’ve seen this in a couple of towns, so I know it’s not just some kind of freak thing. There will be a furniture store, and right next door, a funeral home. Both are owned by the same people! What is that? That is the weirdest …
We Are The Giant Microbes
At last! At long last! Steve can find Matt some quality ebola for his stocking in the form of a plush toy at the low low price of $8.95. And If Matt is feeling equally, well, warm and fuzzy, he can buy Steve some plush Gonorrhea. Or, if you really like Karl Winter’s stuff, you …
Remembrance Day Forgetfulness
I was watching the news last night, and a story came on that doesn’t even need the time of day. But, it’s the local news, where coverage of snow blowing around in open areas is considered important, and it being another scorcher out there gets top priority, so I guess it’s slim pickin’s. Anyway, the …
U R 2 St00pid 2 Post Here.
We’ve pissed and moaned about stupidity on the internet, especially lete-speak. Well, someone agrees with us, and has decided to design a stupidity filter. It will even flash a message back to the apparent moron, telling him his message was more or less unintelligible and to try again. But Gabriel Ortiz and his team have …

Why should it be the responsibility of college and university students to prop up the failing business models of multi-billion dollar corporations? And why should doing the sensible thing and not doing so be punishable by the revocation of all federal financial aid to all …
Google’s In My Head!
I’m trying to write this without sounding like a paranoid nutbar. I will probably fail. Oh well. I’ve probably sounded like many different varieties of nutbar before, so what’s another kind? I want you to think. think of when you first remember hearing about the Google search engine. Can you remember? Can you remember someone …
Rogers Rage Update
Well, I got a response from the support Gerbils at Rogers, and wow, it was only semi-formulaic and completely useful! Amid the standard issue “thank you for using our online customer service” and “We appreciate your feedback” crap, there was a decent response! They are escalating my concerns to the web-team, and they’re going to …
Knowing Where I’m At Isn’t Where It’s At
I’ve seen these commercials advertising this new GPS service offered by certain wireless providers where you and your friends will always know where each other is. All the people on the commercials sound like stoners or zombies. They just keep pushing buttons on their phones going, “I know where you’re at.” “Oh yeah? Well I …
