There Is A WiFi Hair Brush Because The World Is Kind Of Garbage
It’s not the stupidest unnecessarily smart gadget I’ve ever seen (I think that honour goes to these socks), but the Hair Coach is way up there. Yes, it is a hair brush. A hair brush with sensors in it. A hair brush that has it’s own app. A hair brush that communicates through Bluetooth. And …

Hopefully The Crazy Talk Is Just Talk
In a move that surprised me if no one else, the International Olympic Committee stood up and actually made a reasonably good but difficult sporting decision yesterday, banning Russia from participating in the 2018 Winter Olympics. The ruling came after an investigation into allegations of a sophisticated doping scheme backed by the country’s government and …
There’s A Body Scanner? What A Bummer

And You May Ask Yourself, Why Did I Waste My Vote
It’s Trump vs. Talking Heads,but not in the usual way where you wake up and turn on the TV to see what in the hell he’s done now. This is actually fun.
Do You Have My Steak Today?
You know what’s sad? News has gotten so weird that this story of a customer pulling a gun on a McDonald’s employee because they wouldn’t serve him a steak bagel at 3 in the morning probably wouldn’t have caught my eye. As scary as I’m sure it was for the girl working that night, nothing …
