Certain things make me feel like I’m out of place in this world. None of me can understand the massive public interest in watching the Olympics luge crash video where the guy dies. My visceral inclination is to simply run as far away from scenes of death as I can. And yet there is a massive public interest in it. Can’t wrap my head around facts like this.
I mean, I can fully understand public interest in sex scandals, because sex is fun. But watching a guy die?
I think Apple is clearly trying to define a 3rd market with the iPad. Imagine if every elementary, high school and college student in the US was basically assumed to have one of these things as part of the curriculum. That would mean that every US citizen at one point or another would own an Apple product.
Wow. Brad Pitt – Angelina Jolie Divorce. Who would have thought. All those adopted kids… Well, at least she’s available again. I’m betting that next year she’s top 10 on the hottest women lists.
Using distributive intelligence, MIT effectively took the classical pyramid incentive model to win a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) contest of $40,000. Check it out.
Most people like to carve out their style through the clothes and accesrories they wear, but it goes too far when you carry a coffin for a handbag, or hang skunk fur over your arm.
These extremely crazy handbags will make you wonder just what some people are prepared to wear. Sure the ground beef handbag was a publicity stunt, but what the hell is a market stall doing selling dead toad bags, complete with dead eyes!
I’m a super big sucker for the lead up to Christmas. It’s my favorite time of year. And there’s nothing like re-watching The Grinch Who Stole Christmas or The Christmas Story for the millionth time… For all your favorite shows check out TV Crunch’s 2009 Christmas TV Specials and Holiday Movies Schedule.
The naked celeb picture scandals seem to be coming in full swing now. A leading economic indicator, IMHO. When people feel safe, they take on more risky behaviors. Three in 3 weeks if I remember correctly. This time it’s a nude photo of Jamie Foxx – full frontal no-less.
Another young actress bites the dust (pun intended). Ok. So there’s this chick I’ve never heard of named Ashley Greene who was the female star of the hit movie Twilight (which I have heard of). Well, Ashley has now made the same mistake as Vanessa Hudgens and all the others who let their guard down: she’s been exposed… big time. Yes, all the guys who got dragged by their girlfriends to see Twilight can now claim some revenge: Bella has finally gotten naked [NSFW link].
The Cold War may be a thing of the past, but interest in the period remains. And what better way to get a glimpse into the tension between the Soviet Union and the capitalist West than with these cool propaganda posters.
So I guess that there is this new trend in China of dying your pets in ridiculous colors. Check it out at Pawnation, and please don’t duplicate. It really doesn’t look very good.
It’s amazing how many people out there are searching the phrase watch erin andrews peephole video. Well, not really amazing. It’s human nature. But it’s a spectacle that’s fun to watch from behind a live stat machine.
