fart-proof panties

Fartypants, yoAlso excellent for birth control, as anyone who sees that you wear these horrific remedial incontinent-Grandma pants will cut (out) like the wind.

The Under-Ease pants have an in-built multi-layered, replaceable filter made of felt, charcoal and fibreglass wool.

Having recently returned from the Valley of the Shadow of Conservatism, I must take a moment to note for posterity that, no matter what the level of fine or otherwise dining one may be enjoying there, the main course is always accompanied by a hearty serving of boiled, frozen broccoli and cauliflower. Always. I believe this to be a subtle yet effective adaptation to the climate; a clever way of ensuring that Ontarians do not freeze in their sleep, as their beds will be cosily heated for hours from the pre-heated gaseous emissions resulting from the breakdown of said side-dish cruciferousness. Cruciferocity. Whatever; it’s nothing to do with Catholicism. There is obviously no market for these pants in Ontario, regardless of the religious demographics.

I’m wondering if, after a certain point of flatulence and resultant inflatuation while wearing these pants, one achieves the ability to fly, Hindenburg-style? I can just see currently-sexagenarian Richard Branson snarfing down some quick Taco Bell and attempting to set a new record for underwear-powered flight. And, of course, if this method of transportation catches on it could revolutionize the car and aerospace industries as well as meaningfully reduce global warming and cause the entire tax system to be re-evaluated. I forsee a boom in the legume and dried turkish apricot markets very soon.

pic o’the day: Mars polar ice cap layers

nasa polar ice cap shot

Stolen from Space Photos, and taken by NASA.

This false-color subframe of an image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows the north polar layered deposits at top and darker materials at bottom, exposed in a scarp at the head of Chasma Boreale, a large canyon eroded into the layered deposits.

Now that’s a very cool idea; that, just like in sedentary rocks, the geological history of a planet can be recorded in its ice layers. I wonder what Mars has been through.

Pen of the Great Old Ones

great race, yo!

You gotta know, when it comes to Great Old Ones news, that BoingBoing would have it. And you totally gots to know that raincoaster would be all over featuring it, particularly if it meant that she wouldn’t have to do any gruesome “clearing off of the Earth” duties. Here’s the latest on a pen which has recently been discovered to meet all of the qualities in the “Great Race” narrative, but which are, of course, quite independent of it. Indeed, stories about these strange metal pens are common among a certain circle of fiction writers; only the overwrought imagination of the fantasists could have imagined a pen in our own time that recorded its thought and those to which it referred. Totes.
