“And how much is this?” I asked, thumbing through the packet labeled “aura reading”. There were numerous pages explaining the chakras and showing some random soul with his face blacked out, surrounding by blurry orange halo. PDF files. Charts. Graphs. Who knew you could turn spirituality into a piece worthy of PubMed status? “A hundred,” the shop owner replied. View post on imgur.com I actively tried to force my eyes.. Read More
I count nopehundred and nopety nope nopes on this wall…
Usually when I say, “NOPE. NOPENOPENOPENOPE” it’s not one for 100+ spiders sat on my wall. It’s just because I’m reiterating my sentiments regarding a single case of BnE an arachnid’s performing in my home. Just one spider. Thusly, a cascade is set off of childlike screams, full body sweats, and the sudden capacity to impeccably aim the flat side of a phone book throwing star style at a microscopic.. Read More
Wait… did we just find the cure for cancer?
After mowing through all the previous seasons of VICE, I was looking forward to the next one, eagerly. (Well, I guess not too eagerly ’cause I apparently missed the third round’s premiere last week.) So as I sat down the other evening to enjoy a nice cup of soup after a hard day of doing the Sisyphus version of shoveling snow while more just poured down on me, I belatedly.. Read More
I need to watch this TED talk at least twelve more times.
Another fantastic TED talk here… on innovation Actually, I clicked on this talk hoping it’d play out like a Buzzfeed list of 365 ways to unlock my creative ballpoint bearing braininess that didn’t wanna come out and write today. Just to show what a “dur” state I was in (my coffee was still brewing; get off me) before I pressed play, I didn’t even make the obvious connection literally anyone.. Read More
Turning workouts into wine is a MYTH, says scientist himself.
“That’s probably not good for you.” “STFU,” I replied in non-acronym form, as I chugged the remainder of my Merlot. “I mean, not right before you go to the gym.” View post on imgur.com Had he been a fleet of wild horses with Gos’s face, he couldn’t’ve dragged me away from my nightly libations. I mean, my hypocritical boyfriend at the time who’d keep a cigarette in his mouth whenever.. Read More
#FartRape is feminism’s new enemy
Okay, this article on “Can a fart be misogynistic?” is a little old – but still a gem. This Onion style spotlighting of “rape culture” gone wild, mutated, and blown outta proportion was like an intravenous opiate to all the painful parts of my soul. But it led me to wonder – though the piece itself is clearly satire – the feminist chick is very definitely not. So just how.. Read More
Mess with the bullhook in private; get the public’s tusk.
Finally, some good news for the poor imported fat asses of Barnum ‘n Bailey: Elephants will no longer be part of the circus. And, in a way, I think we have Hollywood to thank for it. View post on imgur.com If you’re like me, you may have seen “Water For Elephants” and thought, “Oh, well that was like twelve million years ago when people were depressed and poor and didn’t..
