first and foremost.

appropriate dancing

innapropriate dancing.

my middle name is danger.

that's actually a problem?

self-explanatory.

and they bring it home with some quasimodo breakdancing.

Extreme Sushi

Do you like sushi? I do

I really like my sushi served on a miniature wooden boat

Some people can't deal with eating raw fish and go for the cucumber roll. I think that's pussy. I just giggled at myself for typing that out loud. If you think you like sushi and you only eat cucumber and imitation crab meat then whatever. I can't wait any longer-this is the most frightening thing I've seen all day.



What you're looking at here is a full on dead squid that zombies out when you pour apparently evil soy sauce on it. #THATSHITAINTRIGHT

Soy sauce hasn't been so lethal since it made ROW get nine stitches in his toe. I suggest we all move underground and start a safer society there Hunger Games style before theses creepy squid bastards get too out of hand.

Sourcemap: Fascinating and Slightly Unsettling

Sourcemap is all about helping people find out where products come from, and what exactly they contain.

You can browse existing sourcemaps or create your own. Maps also display a given product’s carbon footprint… which is a cool feature, but personally I have NO idea what 0.14 kg CO2e for a bottle of Fiji water means. Relatively good? Bad?

But the site is definitely worth checking out. It’s pretty interesting to see exactly what you’re consuming when snacking on an AriZona Arnold Palmer Iced Tea and some Oreos. It slightly horrified me to find out that my favorite 99¢ beverage is sweetened using Splenda, and that Oreo cookies are manufactured in Indonesia using palm oil from Malaysia.

Sourcemap also breaks down an iPhone 3GS and Domino’s Pizza.

No New Mad Men till 2012. FUCK.

I'm so pissed! Mad Men season 5 won't air until "early 2012" because of negotiations between AMC, Lionsgate, & show runner Matt Weiner. It was originally scheduled to return this summer.

It's all about money. Such a pity. I finally caught up on Mad Men last fall, just as season 4 was coming to a close. I still haven't watched an episode live... and now we have to wait another year. Boo. But props to JMN & Twitter for bringing this to my attention seconds after the news was released.

They Gave Wonder Woman Pants. Lame.

NBC is premiering a Wonder Woman t.v. show reboot this fall, and this is the first picture of the new superhero, in costume. I expected a wardrobe update, but this is silly. Her crotch looks awkward, and if FRICKEN WONDER WOMAN doesn't look good in blue pleather leggings, the rest of us have no hope. Burn them. Now. Bring back the bare legs. -id

p.s. the actress is from Friday Night Lights, which I don't watch, but the Vaughts say its awesome.

Charlie Sheen speaks some wisdom

Everyone has probably heard at least something about Charlie Sheen's latest explorations into prostitutes and drugs. Here's an interview of him on ABC of him going on some crazy rants about his new sober life and his old awesome rager lifestyle. He says all sorts of brilliant things. My favorite is when he talks about how he isn't bi-polar he's bi-winning, and how "Can't is the cancer of happen".

God's Gift to Women: a George Clooney Mural.

Not to be the celebrity news correspondant, but for real, this is too bizarre not to share.

Apparently George Clooney is filming some movie (deatils, AWM?) in Cinncinatti. In an attempt to get his attention and bring people to their art gallery, some muralist painted a version of the Sistene Chapel Adam and God finger touch, featuring George's face. It's weird. Particularly that it cuts off right at his business, in a way that just draws attention to it instead of down-playing it.

In this video the art gallery owner and the muralist explain the work and ask people to come down and get their picture taken underneath it.

Red Line Update: SNAKE FOUND

I'm allowed to judge these people, right?

Remember when I posted about the 3 ft snake named Penelope that some crazy lady lost on the Red Line train in Boston last month? They found it. IN THE T. IT WAS HIDING FOR WEEKS. seriously.


Thankfully the person who found it was a snake owner themselves [eek] and they weren't afraid of picking the snake up and returning it to it's rightful owners.


There's also this hilarious Channel 7 News video of the happy reunion between pet and owners. The lady immediately puts the snake up to her mouth. I am judging her PRETTY hard right now.

A giant drunken puppet

I've been meaning to write about Vulture, New York Magazine's daily entertainment section online, which has great stories and commentary on TV shows and pop culture, plus sweet scoops, see their Spiderman section. The specialize in funny slide shows with commentary at the side with all sorts of themes like 10 greatest rapper face tattoos and 8 greatest wrong lost theories or Blake Lively's Breast Looks (long, but entertaining).

Well now I have a worthy reason to tell you about Vulture, because today it brought me this. This video left me totally confused and bemused. I tried to do some research on it, but no one had anything to say other than the puppet's name is Arthur and he's in Ireland. I don't know how it is maneuvered. I don't know who made it. But here's the video, as provided by Vulture, and here's the article they had on it.






Anyone with info should forward them to Plus1Press,

LOL means kanye is joking

Kanye tweeted this, plus an "LOL" which erryone deleted before they wrote an article about it making it one of the most forgotten and important LOLs in 2011, after his new song with Jay-Z got bumped from the top of the itunes best seller list by Britney's new song.I appreciated when Kanye interrupted Taylor Swift on MTV, Beyonce's video is one of the best of all time, also it was the best part of the awards show and its great that he is joking about it now. Kanye is the only rock star left.

Also whys it gotta hurt so bad when a limb falls asleep then wakes back up?

Also did erryone hear about the fox that shot the hunter? thumbs are totes overrated.

Did your Sign Just Change?! (WTF)

I don't know if I'm ready to accept this, but I just read that some astronomists recalcuated the original Babylonian Zodiac taking into account slight shifts in earth's axis over the last millenia. Or something.

The dates are different and they reintroduced a 13th sign! So I guess I'm now a Taurus?:

Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16.
Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11.

Pisces: March 11-April 18.

Aries: April 18-May 13.

Taurus: May 13-June 21.

Gemini: June 21-July 20.

Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10.

Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16.

Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30.

Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23.

Scorpio: Nov. 23-29.

Ophiuchus:* Nov. 29-Dec. 17.

Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20.


* Discarded by the Babylonians because they wanted 12 signs per year.

Our parent's tax dollars.

UPDATED: Here's a link to the Eagle's article about the new bylaw.
According to this article, the new bylaw tacks on an addition $300 fine to the state ordered $100 for less than an ounce of pot on town property, including roads.

My brother happened to be at a Westford town meeting tonight and he told me about some breaking local news:

Westford has re-criminalized pot on public property in town, which includes, but is not limited to:
"any street, sidewalk, public way, footway, passageway, stairs, bridge, park, playground, beach, recreation area, boat landing, public building, school, school grounds, cemetery, or parking lot; or in or upon any bus or other passenger conveyance operated by a common carrier; or in or upon any place accessible to the public, including any person in a motor vehicle while it is in, or upon any public way or any way to which the public has a right of access within the Town."

Also, it's not a possession law, but a consumption law. The proposed law started with "No person shall burn, smoke, ingest, or otherwise use or consume marijuana."

Apparently the bylaw was proposed by Westford police and it passed. The link in this article is just about the proposal and there isn't an article about it passing yet, because its only been 3 hours, so I'll update this post as more info becomes available.

 Don't they have bigger things to worry about, like the rash of shootings in town last winter or the teen suicides sweeping the country? Get a life westford.
