Looking for the story of the recent NYC beatdown? Go here.
It’s true: Borat, the Andrew Dice Clay of Khazakstan, has gotten the smackdown from the clueless, sharpie-wielding village idiots in NYC. Guess they ran outta pitchforks.
From Thighs Wide Shut, via Gawker. And if you’re thinking “Gee, she musta only had time to go to one website today” you’d be right. There’s a Guide to Muslim Humour on WordPress somewhere, but I’ll hafta find it for you tomorrow. L8r!
It had to happen. Not content with spoiling Fido with doggie spas, treadmills, massages, claw polish (they’re not nails, people, they’re claws) and vegan FFS dog food, pet owners now have a brand-spankin’ new way to pretend Rover is the child they never (thank GOD) had.
Premium beer.
From Gawker, via the Hellmouth, obviously.
In Union Square this morning, Heartland Brewery debuted the latest addition to their collection of oddly flavored beers: Slobber Lager, the beer just for dogs. In honor of the ASPCA‘s October fundraiser, rescued pooches were treated to Heartland’s special, non-alcoholic brew that smelled something like raw beef rotting in flood water (which, come to think of it, is an improvement over O’Doul’s). Exactly what Fido loves. As a bonus, Slobber Lager is less carbonated than regular human beer, so as to avoid any bloated chihuahua explosions.
Damn. One wonders, one does, what they would recommend for the morning after an overindulgence: hair of the human?
It’s hard enough to get a job nowadays, let alone keep it, particularly when you work as the host of a children’s program on PBS and have a past as the public face of Technical Virginity.
From the AP:
The PBS Kids Sprout network has fired the host of “The Good Night Show” after learning she had appeared in videos called “Technical Virgin.”
The host, Melanie Martinez, had alerted network officials about one of the videos late last week and she was immediately taken off the air.
…
PBS Kids Sprout airs children’s programming 24 hours a day and is seen in about 20 million of the nation’s 110 million television homes. “The Good Night Show” has been temporarily replaced by cartoons while a search is conducted for a new host.
But can you really replace this earnest, informative PSA:
or this:
From Best Week Ever, via Defamer. Sexiest Man Alive Matthew McConaughey uses his super yoga powers in an attempt to destroy the Death Star and free the galaxy from the cruel yoke of the Imperial Forces.
This is Benjamin, the last Tasmanian Tiger, also called a Thylacine. It died in captivity in 1936, which is a god-damned shame. Such a beautiful, intriguing animal; do I hafta explain the coolness factor here? It gets the Squid tag.
Like Nessie, Caddie, and Bigfoot, sightings are occasionally reported, but recently they’ve even been reported by confused tourists who had no idea there ever was such an animal, or even such a legend. Veddy interesting…
Alas, the video is skewed somehow, so the URL is here. Here’s a consolation pic:
Let’s try this again:
and here it is again, being annoyed by one of its keepers. ‘Nuther consolation pic. Nice dentistry, eh?
