Awkward Sleep Ramblings

Have you ever had a roommate or significant other that talked in their sleep?  It can be really funny, it can be awkward and it can be downright scary sometimes!  Awkward Sleep Ramblings is a place for you to record all this weirdness and laugh at others unfortunate mutterings.

Although many of the odd things people say when sleeping tend to make no sense whatsoever, many of them are hilarious!  Have you ever tried talking back to someone who is sleep-talking? Sometimes you get nothing, but often you can have a whole, very odd conversation that the talker will probably not recall at all, upon awakening, LOL. If my significant other did this, I'd be recording them!  

Awkward Sleep Ramblings makes a good place to read too (perhaps when you have insomnia?!) if you aren't fortunate to sleep near one of these strange people of your own.  Go see!

E-Mails from an Asshole

Don'tEvenReply.com

e-mails from an asshole

Have you ever placed an ad on Craigslist or Freecycle and a got an odd reply?  Or a seemingly normal inquiry that then turned into an odd, stalker type situation? 

E-Mails from an Asshole is a site dedicated to freaking people out.  The guy takes normal looking ads and replies to them in, well - an asshole kinda way.  Sort of hard to explain, but terribly funny to read!  Some people will exchange emails with this guy for a quite awhile, before they lose their cool, some think they must be misunderstanding him, some just freak right out, LOL.  It's not polite, it's not nice but it is damned funny. 

You *will* enjoy reading these exchanges.... and I bet you will be much more careful, next time you post or reply to an ad!  Go see!

Let's Say Thanks

Let's Say Thanks is a wonderful lil website that allows us in the US to send a card to one of our many troops out there, standing up and helping preserve our freedom.  They will send a free, printed postcard of your choice to show your support & appreciation for all they do. 

It's a small thing but it means so much to those guys to receive something from a stranger, saying 'thank you' and getting a little recognition.  They have one of the hardest jobs in the world, they do without their families, they do without a whole lot of necessities in fact.  It is because they are willing to stand for our country that we remain free! 

It doesn't cost you anything - it's FREE.  You don't have to support the war or the president - but you *should* support our troops.  If you aren't willing to support those who will fight for your freedoms, feel free to stand in front of them!!

If we all send just one card, it would be a huge boost for so many soliders!  You can spare a minute of your time, right?  Go here:  Let's Say Thanks!

Passive-Aggressive Notes

This site is one of our favorites!  It's been around for awhile now but if you have not visited, you are in for a treat.  You know all those little posted signs around the office?  Like "Your Mom doesn't work here, please wash your own dishes!" and the many variations of 'please be neat & wipe the seat' or 'thanks for stealing my kids science project in the fridge!'  Passive-Aggressive Notes has them all!  And so very many you have never seen before, as well! 

Be sure to check out the 'Greatest Hits' section (on the right) if you've not been there before.  Some of these you may steal for yourself, LOL

And yeah, you're welcome!

Eternal Earth-Bound Pets, USA

Have you ever wondered what will happen to your beloved pet when the rapture occurs?  Who will feed Fluffy or give Fido his doggy painkillers for his arthritic knees when you're gone to sit beside Jesus, huh?

Luckily for you, some atheists have a heart!  And they've started a much needed service.   They know they will be left behind when the rapture happens, just like your pets!  So they are offering to take care of the pets you've suddenly abandoned to travel on up to heaven.  Eternal Earth-bound Pets, USA offers a 10-year, renewable contract for dogs, cats & other small animals (a few states also have coverage for horses, goats & the like).  As the company grows, more animals may be included.  First pet is $110, $15 for each additional pet in the same household.  Totally legit!!  Go see them and get your rock-bottom start up prices now!

Make sure to check out the FAQs and the contract/payment pages too.  Paypal is available!

Magic Wand Remote Control

This looks like such *fun*!!  Looks like it was stolen from 'Harry Potter'  himself, but it's actually a spiffy remote control!  One that will let you (with the appropriate swish or wiggle) change channels, adjust the volume, etc. on TVs, cable boxes, stereos - up to 13 items at a time!  Can you imagine the awe if you used this around a small child who still believes in wizards?  Not to mention the gazzillions of Potter fans out there that just must have anything & everything wizardy. We found The Magic Wand Remote at Firebox.com (where it is currently sold-out) but assume it must be out there elsewhere on the net as well.

The price tag of nearly $70 USD is the only reason we don't have one yet... but we would, if you people would click a few ads on this page! ::hint::  We can think of at least three people who would enjoy this, even with no kids to amaze.  The Wand is on our wish list!! 

Very Demotivational Posters

You know those motivational posters hanging around offices everywhere, trying to make you feel like everyone but you looks at the sunny side of life?  The ones that try to 'motivate' you into being a team-player with the rest of the douches you work with? We hate them!

That's why we luv this site:  VeryDemotivational.com offers the same sort of posters, but oh so much more true to life.  There is even one with a *naked* Dr. Gregory House!  Dude!  Where does he keep his Vicodins?  Sorry - you'll have to discover where it is on your own!

VeryDemotivational tells it like it really is!  Great for killing time at work (when the boss isn't looking!) or for snagging for random internet board posts.  You can even make your own poster, using their builder tool.  Go ahead, give it try!

Paint Your Cat... Unbelieveable!

Have you ever had the thought 'Gee, I bet that pussy would look so very cool in neon blue?' No?  Well, neither have we.  But this site shows us the error of our ways!

Paint your cat is full of, well, painted pussys!  Yep.  We can't imagine either of our boys letting us do this to them, but the world is full of less prissy type kitties, I guess.  Some are quite pretty all dolled up like french hookers.  The site is actually Hyd-Masti, which is filled with bunches of odd & fun little things to look at.  We just like the painted cats best. 

The page is really homage the book called (you can guess this, right?) WHY PAINT CATS by Burton Silver and Heather Busch.  Some of the pics look seriously photo-shopped but we are assured they are actually real painted cats.  The book is available via Amazon, if you'd like to see more than what is offered here.

Wish they would have included 'how-to' pics as well.... cause our kitties might like a change of 'do now & then, once they gave it a try!  But I guess we'll never know now... ::le sigh::

Justin (shitmydadsays) on Twitter

We took a month off for Christmas, you got a problem with that?  Take it up with Santa!  So we are back and have discovered Twitter!  Surely you've heard about this new phenomenon?  People broadcast to the whole world their current thoughts.... in 140 characters or less!  Ok, it's not all that new but if you've never read Justin's tweets, you are missing out.

Justin(shitmydadsays) tweets are *hysterical*.  He simply adds tweets as his father goes about his day, spinning wisdom and shouting odd obscenities about Justin, the world and stupid people in general.  His father is old school cool, peeps, and you will adore what the man has to say, I promise.  You don't even have to login to Twitter to read them, so bookmark this site even if you are a twit prone to tweeting. There are, of course, lots of other people on Twitter, famous ones even... but so far, we luv Justin's Dad best!

11 Points

We read a lot of blogs, it's just something that goes with the internet.  Some are great, some are boring as hell, most fall somewhere in between.  11 Points is somewhere in the middle.  Because top 10 lists are for cowards, 11 Points is a series of well, 11 points on various, random subjects.

When he feels like it, the author randomly chooses a subject like the 11 most bad ass jews in history (for Hanukkah!), the 11 most drunken presidents, 11 firsts in internet history, 11 obscure taco bell facts - well, you get the idea.

11 Points is often witty and topical.  We enjoy it.  So go see.

Hunch!

Got a question?  Need to make a decision?  Check out the hunch website.  Using a mysterious algorithm, hunch asks a series of questions to help you decide.  You can choose from from many topics or categories to start your search for wisdom or you can plug any word into the search bar to help you navigate towards enlightenment.  Hunch does not play favorites, so be sure you want to know before you ask - it remembers your questions and answers from the past, when you visit, to steer you to decisions based on your past inquiries.  Kinda creepy! 

Visit hunch and let us know what you think using the contact email address shown on the right of this page.  Really, we wanna know how it did for you.  Just ask hunch! 

 

Barbie Diversification - Loanne Hizo Ostlie

Remember Barbie, the blond, blue-eyed, impossibly proportioned fashion icon?  Yeah, she's still out there and going strong.  We loved her as kids but often wondered why there wasn't more of a selection of barbies.  I mean, you grow up meeting lots of different people, with different skin tones, different languages, different hair, different clothes.

Loanee Hizo Ostile obviously had these same thoughts, at some point.  She is an incredibly talented artist and has a website here.  Taking generic barbies, she adds new hair, repaints the faces and/or bodies and dresses her creations in stunning clothing or costumes.  She then sells her creations on ebay and through other sources.

When you go to her website, click on the gallery link at the top of the page to view many of her past creations, including Harry Potter versions, the UPS guy, your local policeman, little babies and even families!  We couldn't find one that wasn't amazing!  They aren't cheap but hey are one-of-a-kind and would make a really special gift!  Go check them out!

Eternal Moonwalk

Do you still miss Michael Jackson and his moonwalking ways?  We do.  Eternal Moonwalk is a site that lets us remember the good.  Beginning with MJ himself, Eternal Moonwalk loops together clips from all over the world of everyone doing - ready for it? - MJ's Moonwalk!

That's it. It is surprisingly fun to watch everyone from little kids to grandmas trying to master the moonwalk, it sucks you right in an you'll look up an hour later to find you've totally missed Ugly Betty or whatever show you were just killing time waiting for!  Not that we'd watch Ugly Betty... not us.

Eternal Moonwalk is fun and mindless, it reminds us that no matter what MJ was accused of in his lifetime, he was still The King of Pop and the only one who could really moonwalk looking natural, and so we love it and we're thrilled someone came up with this great idea!  Got a problem with that, Betty?

Pizza is My Girlfriend - Who wouldn't date pizza?

Pizza is My Girlfriend is a marvelous blog that doesn't waste your time - no stories, no babble, no introductory paragraphs, no sir, not here.  This blog simply posts one picture of pizza in all it's many yummy forms, each and every day. Yep, thats it.

Warning:  Viewing this site on an empty stomach is almost guaranteed to make you ravenous!  It's much more fun to view Pizza is My Girlfriend while you are eating.... pizza would be a good choice, obviously!  Even Obama loves pizza!

Uncooked Greeting Cards

We don't really care for 'normal' type greeting cards (and we like e-cards even less!).  That's why we bring you the glorious site of Uncooked Greeting Cards.  Need a special card for that new guy that has your heart all a'flutter?  Uncooked has it.... and it won't be a frilly, sloppy, gushy sorta card either.  Have an Auntie that annoys the snot out of you - but you positively *must* send a holiday greeting or else your mother will harp on your ass for the next thousand years?  Uncooked has a great selection that will be quite suitable!  Take a gander and you will see!

Not Always Right - Funny & Stupid Customer Quotes

Not Always Right is a collection of amusing, confusing and sometimes downright obnoxious experiences from those who serve in retail, service or other public-interaction positions.  Although the quote 'the customer is always right' is often slung about by irate purchasers, it is in fact, not correct.  The customer is often disgustingly, enormously wrong.  Not Always Right gives hundreds of glaring examples of what a cashier at Wally-World gets served up everyday.  Geeks, be sure to check the tech support stories for glorious tales of dumb-ass user errors!

 

Not Always Right is great revenge for all you retail slaves!  The rest of you will find it pretty snicker-worthy too. 

Fresh Balls:: So Fresh, So Dry

Fresh Balls is the first and only antiperspirant for your boys… It’s Aluminum Free, Paraben Free and Talc Free. It contains Oatmeal as an anti-irritant and Tea Tree Oil – so it’s anti-bacterial as well.

A gentleman named Frank Brooks invented Fresh Balls for one reason... (actually two).  He suffers from sweaty testicles.  So he gathered a bunch of chemists and created this cream.  That he named it 'Fresh Balls' gets him points in our book.  

This product is real, I swear.  $14.99 each, with shipping included.  There is a discount of $2 off each, when you order more than 5 tubes.

Just doing our little bit to improve the boys out there!  Junk in your package is icky, no matter who you are.  We can think of more than one guy who could benefit from this.  Think Christmas gifts, people!  We are here to help.

Morons with Signs

Morons with Signs is a delious delight of a blog.  Who can resist a blog filled with pictures of morons with signs!?  I dare you.

Right or left, this site does not discriminate.  Pro-choice, pro-God, pro-constitution... well, you get the idea.  Morons come in all flavors, shapes & sizes.  They also have different religions and violently opposing political views.  Morons with Signs celebrates them all. 

Like the blog's creator, we believe dissent is the highest form of patriotism.  It's also an opportunity for michevious imps to sneak in with their own signage in disagreement with the morons with signs.  You'll often notice this in the pictures offered here.  That is why this site can be so incredibly satisfying. 

I love America!

Stop Making that Duckface!!

Taken from Stop Making that Duckface!:  you know that face you make when you're about to take that perfect shot of yourself for myspace?  you know, the one where you push your mouth out in that weird combination of a pout and a kissy face make it look like you've got big pouty lips and model-quality cheekbones?  It's called "duckface".  

Who started this trend anyway?  Obviously, no one attractive. They should be shot. You should not make this face when you take pictures.  It's just not flattering to anyone.  It looks pretty damned stupid.  We know you would never do this.  Never.  Well, except maybe that once, when you were making fun of people who do this!  That's right, it was just to show how stupid it was!


Yeah.  But we all do know people who do this.  This site is dedicated to them.  Visit it.  Share it.  Perhaps sometime in the distant future, it will be the only record of these awful faces.  Except for, you know, the bizzillion pictures of them all on myspace.  And facebook.  And forums and computers and stuff.

Plush Sushi at Think Geek

Because sushi is just so associated with a diverse Thanksgiving, here ya go.  Think Geek is offering these cute sushi plushies for $9.99 each.  Tuna, Salmon Roe, Shrimp, Wasabi & Ginger.  I don't know if children will be so thrilled with these things but lots of corporate types will love them, I just know it. 


Think Geek offers a whole assortment of techo, geeky, wonderous stuff.  Gadgets, collectibles, toys for your cube - you can find it here.  They also have infectiously creepy microbe plushies too.  I couldn't find a 'swine flu' one, but I'm sure they're in production somewhere!
