Just In Time For The Holiday Movie Rush

It's Friday!!

You Decide

Either this is a very realistic depiction of how Christ ascended to heaven or the art director for The Economist Magazine just bought themselves a one way ticket to Hell for making Brazil's famous Jesus statue look like a NASA rocket ship.

Anything For A Buck

The Mouse has invaded your kitchen. Yes that's right, Disney has come down to manufacturing eggs. I guess making billions of dollars in movies, music, toys, books, and hotels wasn't enough. It even looks like the chickens were genetically altered to make eggs with Winnie The Pooh's face on them...Where will it end?

Worst Coat EVER.

Introducing the worst coat...EVER. While perusing Daffy's I came across this coat. While in theory it might be a good idea...the reality just turns out to be...well, crappy. We all like to keep our hands warm during the winter, but not at the sake of looking like a retarded fire hydrant. Thumbs down BOMB BOOGIE clothing company.

Gangsta Dolphins

Marine biologist in California have finally discovered why so many porpoises have been washing ashore dead...Gangsta Dolphins.

This is the first time Dolphin-on-Porpoise violence has been recorded. Mobs of dolphins have been seen ramming and drowning Porpoises. One possible explanation for the violence is sexual angst due to the lack of female Dolphins.

What's The Point?

These ads bug the hell out of me. What does this woman and her spastic dancing have to do with financial aid? Maybe she's really happy she can finally afford to go to Pole Dancing school?

Boner Medicine

Cialis has one of the most pointless ad campaigns I've ever seen. Why would you be sitting in separate tubs after taking medicine to give you a huge raging boner?

Cardinals New Hitting Coach

The St. Louis Cardinals announced today that former Cardinal and Home Run King Mark McGwire would be their new hitting coach next season. Seems to me they could've saved themselves a lot of money by cutting out the middle man.

Scary Stuff

The Halloween Ice Skating Spectacular on NBC just wouldn't be the same without the haunting soundtrack added by a live orchestra. I'm not sure if its the ghoulish make-up or perfectly pressed LL Bean blouse that gives the music that extra bit of scary.

Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder

A Saudi man is suing one of his country's largest oil companies for the wrongful death of his prized camel. The devastated camel owner is asking for $250,000 in compensation for his beloved beast who was set to be a contestant in an upcoming camel beauty pageant.

A CAMEL BEAUTY PAGEANT?!? I guess that's the only time having a giant camel toe can help you win anything.

Settling For Less

Should this place be proud of their ranking among other the Chinese restaurants in the area?

Its Friday!!!

I'm Just Sayin'

If you've ever seen a car commercial or looked at a Consumer Reports magazine, you're familiar with the name JD Power and Associates. They are said to be the authority and final word in rating consumer products from blenders to cars...But who the hell are these guys, and what makes their word so credible?...I'm just sayin'.

MTV? WTF?

These days I hear a lot of people complaining about MTV's programming. Everybody wants to know where the Music went. Well, here's the embodiment of that complaint. On a regular weeknight at 11PM instead of filling an hour or two with music videos(or even one of their own crappy shows) MTV's programming department throws on The Matrix Reloaded. There's not even a vague connection to music in this movie...MTV?...WTF??

Who Is This Guy?

Once again on my random travels on the Google Image Search, I've come across another interesting character. Meet Rick. The odd combo of a gun fighter mustache and psychedelic tshirt might make someone think he was the only hit man at Woodstock...but trust me, you'd be WAY off in making that assumption.

Who Is This Guy?

On one of my usual Google image searches I came across Shaun. I don't know if it was the Koala Bear T-Shirt or his awesome collection of milk cartons that caught my attention first. One thing is for sure though, judging by this picture, Shaun is also collecting dust...on his genitals.

Bad Spelling Or Truth In Advertising?

Either this Halal food kart doesn't come equipped with a spell check or they found a way to save money by using "CHEASE" instead of CHEESE in their steak sandwiches. You be the judge.

THINK LIKE A CHAMPION is a collection of essays from Donald Trump's recommended reading list designed to help inspire success oriented thinking in the reader. I'm not quite sure how Buju Banton would come into the picture, but we all know that before you think like a champion, you have to WALK LIKE A CHAMPION

We all know that the internet is bursting at the seams with interesting characters, well, this guy is definitely a tribute to that sentiment.

Nike: Covering Every Market

While surfing the Nike website the other day, I came across the "Air Insurgent". Is Nike is trying to reach the untapped "Iraqi Freedom Fighter" market with this shoe? I'm sure it provides amazing grip and support for launching rocket propelled grenades.
