I should have written this post yesterday. It seems a little late now. Oh well. I’ve been seeing stupid commercials similar to this one where Pepsi was telling everyone to “learn” this new cheer “written” by a Canadian. The cheer is, as everyone in Canada well knows and wants to forget, “Eh! O! Canada go!” …

You’re Not Going to Egypt! You’re Not Going to Egypt!
Hmmm. If you knew about the Nigerian man with the explosives in his crotch who tried to blow a plane out of the sky on Christmas, and you knew how that freaked everyone out, do you think, in your wildest dreams, that it would be a good idea to joke about having explosives in your …

Take Charge, Take Care, Give Me A Break
I totally understand safe injection sites and needle-exchanges. It’s sad, but at least there’s a chance the people who have a drug addiction won’t end up with HIV and Hepatitis C on top of it. But a how-to pamphlet on heroin injection? That’s a little insane. It actually would make it easier for someone thinking …
I’m Ready For My Close-up
Ewan Brandneeds to decide if he’d rather be a model or a flasher, because trying to be both at once seems to have landed him in quite a pickle. Fiscal depute Janine Bates said: “One of the girls was hoping to do a photography course. “As part of the entrance requirements she had to complete …
Thank Goodness For Chef Boyardee
What a strange sermon to give, but apparently Anglican Reverend Tim Jones gave it. Essentially he said that all the poor people should not burglarize homes or mug people or turn to prostitution to fill their bellies this Christmas. No, there is a better way. shoplift cans of Ravioli from big chain stores. Are there …
If He Continues On His Crime Spree, He Won’t Have A Leg To Stand On In Court
Way to go Michael Anthony Randall Jr. Way to create a lasting reminder of the day you were a dipshit. I guess Randall decided to rob a store. He had a gun in his coveralls, but when he pulled it out, he shot himself in the ankle by accident! Then he hobbled over to a …

First Down…The Hatch
Since I didn’t watch the Liberty Bowl on TV, perhaps I’ll ask Leonard Paulk or Jonathan Williams how it was. they were both playing in it after all, so I figure they should know. Wait, what’s that you say? They weren’t playing? They’ve both been suspended indefinitely? Why would that be? Goodness, they got into …

If there’s anything that’ll make me break the I’m not going to post for a little while so I can rest my brain promise I made to myself earlier this week, it’s the annual Darwin Awards. I got the release this morning, so here they are for your enjoyment. // 2009 Darwin Award WINNERS Announced …
Just What All Kids Need: A Robotic Hamster
Here’s another example of a story I saw before I left, but didn’t have the brains to deal with it in the way I wanted to. The story is about Target firing employees for buying Zhu Zhu Pets. Yeah, target can be dickheads. But what the story made me do was wonder why the Zhu …

The Councilors Are Full Of Air, Just Like Balloons
Here we go again with the UK. I was going to say that it didn’t take me long to find some UK silliness this year, but this is a story from November. I’m just seeing it now. A business somewhere in the UK, wherever Solihull is, decided to tie balloons outside their store to draw …
