OK, so I clicked on the link and came to this site. Oh how I regretted it!
Stop it, Ross. Stop it!! STOP!!!!!!!!
If you have a phobia about men with lots of facial hair kissing you, I suggest you don’t click on the link. And no, it’s not David Schwimmer, a.k.a Ross from Friends. But it’s fast become a viral marketing campaign by Converse.

Everyone who’s been on Twitter these days must be sick of the all too regular downtimes. They’re probably even more sick of seeing the fail whale - the infamous cartoon whale that adorns the “I’m sorry but Twitter is dead again today” page.
People who have never Twittered, eg. your grandma, would probably not understand why a whale would fail at eating your balls.

With all the buzz surrounding Wall-E, Radar Online decided to come up with a rating of how gay some of film’s robots are.
The Homometer ranks them from 0 for asexual to 10 for flaming.
This was what was written about C3P0 and R2D2:
PLACE OF ORIGIN: Star Wars
SEXUALITY: For closeted robots lacking upstanding role models in the media, C-3PO was a shining (and shiny) pioneer, and, as this magazine previously noted in its exploration of gayface: “The fussy drone’s permanently agog eyes suggest a certain feyness.”
As for R2? The dependable handy-droid might come off as genderless, but we detect in the high-pitched beeps a certain fondness for his gold-plated friend.
HOMOMETER RATING: 9
Wall-E only gets a rating of 4.

It’s been a while since I’ve had the pleasure of fondling a hot, well-oiled weapon at the shooting range. I remember going to the range was so much fun - you spend half the day eating and smoking and the other half shooting off a few rounds. Easy life, and if I was lucky, I’d get some money too.
Sure the residual carbon in the barrel, firing pin and what not is a bitch to clean, and picking up empty shells scattered all over the range under the blazing afternoon sun was sucky, but it sure beats spending the whole day in some dusty barrack.
Some of the guys didn’t enjoy range as much though. There was one guy who was actually scared shitless of firing his weapon. It was so bad for him that his hands were actually shaking whenever he took aim. As a result, almost always he’d end up failing his classification shoot. Whatever phobia he’s going through, it’s quite understandable. Guns aren’t for everyone.
Especially the people in this video. OMG! The number of misfired and mishandled weapons! I’m just surprised no one got killed by a self-inflicted gunshot wound, especially the woman who fired the Dessert Eagle. That’s a .50 calibre weapon, madam! Not a toy! Still pretty funny how the gun nearly konks her on the head as a result of the recoil and poor handling of the gun.

What a brilliant idea! Convert old cassette tapes, arrange them in a visually appealing pattern, stick a light bulb in there somewhere and you have a great looking lamp.
Muxtapes cannot be used, unfortunately.

Unlike most artists who are constantly bitching about how people are ’stealing’ their music by illegally downloading them, Joss Stone thinks piracy is brilliant and that music should be shared.
Yeah, I love it. I think it’s brilliant and I’ll tell you why,” Stone continued. “Music should be shared. [...] The only part about music that I dislike is the business that is attached to it. Now, if music is free, then there is no business, there is just music. So, I like it, I think that we should share.”
“It’s ok, if one person buys it, it’s totally cool, burn it up, share it with your friends, I don’t care. I don’t care how you hear it as long as you hear it. As long as you come to my show, and have a great time listening to the live show it’s totally cool. I don’t mind. I’m happy that they hear it.”
Wow! She must be really contented with her music career to be so cool about stuff like sharing of music. A DRM fan she certainly isn’t.

Telemarketers must have a horribly difficult job if they’re faced with people like the guy in this video. I understand that telemarketers need to earn a decent living, but some of them are just plainly irritating. So what do you do when a telemarketer calls you up but you’re not interested in whatever they’re selling? Just answer “yes”. To every question.
Muahahaha!!

How cool are these? Very! I think they’re definitely better looking than some old, boring black ones that available in the market.

It’s red. It has a prancing stallion on its hood, sprinkled with auto-lust and has a sound as sweet as an angel (if you can call the roar of a V8 engine angelic). Ferrari’s make me drool. No doubt about it. There’s no other brand of automobiles that captures my imagination and have often been the subject of my fantasies like a Ferrari. From the Testarossa to the 599, and now the Ferrari California.
Sweet mamma, come to Daddy!!
