The first class mail you used to get on Saturdays may be arriving later now; however, soon the courier carrying it will be arriving fashionably late… Literally. That’s right. The USPS is about to get a style makeover by 2014 – a functional fashion line, complete with accessories and “smart apparel”. And what better way to reflect their motto about the elements never “keeping them from their appointed rounds” than.. Read More
New study: Dogs domesticated humans – not vice versa?
Fetch. It sounds like the most trivial game you can play with your dog. It’s one of the first things you teach him how to do (right after “sit”, “stay”, and “don’t crap on the floor”), and seemingly the simplest activity that can keep him entertained for ages. But where does it come from? How is it that your dog innately knows to go get a ball that you throw,.. Read More
Harlem Hounds
For all the effort people are putting into the Harlem Shake videos, I’d expected the original to be pretty awesome once I finally found it. I was sorely mistaken. I suppose internet memes, unlike movies, are an area where the sequels and remakes stand a good chance of outdoing the OG versions, and where the “less is more” rule can simultaneously apply. My case today will be made by dancing.. Read More
Bieber booed for being late.
When you’re a regular 19 year old who is late to work, you’ll either get a lecture or let go. When you’re a 19 year old pop star who does it, however, nobody is going to let anything go. Case in point: Justin Bieber is seemingly receiving some serious crowd-hate after showing up on stage for his show… two hours late. Crowds of kids with curfews booed him en masse.. Read More
Photo Op: Dog craps on Vick
The post in which I found this was titled something like “Vick is taking dog training classes”. But from the looks of this photo, it looks like Mr. Vick’s newfound friend is assuming “the position”: Ready to take a shit on his fresh kicks, and far from ready to forgive his past transgressions: What dog could miss a photo opportunity like this? xoxo
Let’s Apocalypse! ( A Juxt-expose-ition)
WHO HERE LIKES VICE? For those of you who are unfamiliar with who they are, they are these guys who’ve managed to educate young folk on world events by portraying their journalistic endeavors in a more attractive way: from teaching us about drugs like the “get-anyone-to-do-what-you-say” drug, “Scopolamine”, to “sneaking” inside North Korea. Think “Hipster Christiane Amanpour”. Anyway, they used to make these awesome documentaries for free on Youtube; but.. Read More
I’ll have what you’re having…
Me: Put out food bowl for Minnie. Her: Looks at it, then me, then turns up nose, and lays down. Me: Put away bowl and make myself cup of soup 5 minutes later. Her: Looks frantically for food bowl like she’s Oliver Twist and I’m a horrible and neglectful owner. My Soup: Gets cold as I reheat up her dog food. Furry daughters always come first – even when they’re.. Read More
Rescue Dog Saves Owner
And now, for an entry on an entry: “Dog Saves Woman From Violent Sexual Assault”, reads the headline. To my delight, it’s about a rescue dog who (as one commenter points out), “Rescues her (his owner) right back” after she nearly get’s Bundy’d by some dude hiding in the bushes. Firstly: Good call on the Pretty Woman reference, but (secondly) as cute as this story is, don’t they say, the.. Read More
“Just Kidding” = Joke Suicide
It’s so rare that I come across a blogger, youtuber, or anyone on the net in general who can make me laugh. It takes a certain kind of scathing humor. So when I came across Mr. Adam Buckley, I couldn’t help but laugh, sift through our common hatred of current “music”, and eventually learn that I’m not the only one who gets livid when others can’t “take a joke”: Much..

Batman teaching math memes….
Long after high school is over, I still enjoy these mathematical mind teasers I see on the net. Sometimes I get it wrong, get sheepish about it, and have to look up the answer. In case you’re like me and have “Durrrr” moments over ridiculously easy ones like these: So… for funsies… here’s the rundown. I mean, who knows, maybe you’re one of my friends continuing their education later on.. Read More
