Can you even imagine a waiter coming up to you, just after you’ve planted your fat butt down at your table, and telling you to forget the service, there’s no way you’re eating there? Can you just freaking imagine?
Well, that’s what some of the fine folks in Mississippi may be faced with if House Bill 282 gets passed. Of course, in response to the amazing backlash (you think?) for even drafting such a bill, Rep. John Read, R-Gautier, said that it was never meant to pass, but was instead intended to raise awareness of the health risks associated with …read more

Nice, but it’s missing something…
I have a very normal, balanced friend I’ll refer to herein as the Skritch who was misdiagnosed with ADHD as a child. To this day, her parents still refer sympathetically to her atrocious attention span, continuously seeking out new ways to help the poor thing just keep it all together. I say misdiagnosed because there is no possible way a rational creature would ever conceive of ADHD and the Skritch hanging out in the same room, let alone having any sort of “thing” together. As a teen, she sensibly held the Ritalin under her tongue until …read more

Not pregnant? Better leave those car keys at home.
Oh, internet: you never let me down. I learn so much from this wonderful tool. Of course, we all know the only tool that counts is the one that can knock you up, ladies. If you don’t want to die in a car crash, you’d better get pregnant!
In a post of searing brilliance, a doctor – yes – has compiled a list of compelling reasons abortion is dangerous for women. Only, he refers to them as “aspects”. The man has a thesaurus and he’s not afraid to use it! He explains …read more

Sure, they look fun and colorful, but you’re staring into the very heart of human darkness. Avert thine eyes, sinners.
Abortion by massage is the wrenchingly painful midwife’s solution in places like the Philippines, where abortion is illegal, the government yields to Roman Catholic interests, and contraceptives are in short supply. The government supports the belief that contraception is immoral, and what little contraceptives are available – thanks to the U.S. – will be out the door by 2008.
Half a million women a year endure the agony of a hilot’s (midwife’s) “massage”, which involves violent pounding, prodding and stabbing with …read more

Nope, not that cocaine (although everyone threw a big fit about this energy drink). We’re talking about the real thing.

Fortunately, cocaine won’t be added back to cola drinks or cough drops any time soon, but flavored rock is a booming business. Coconut, strawberry, and vanilla are the most popular nose candy flavors.

The Trouble with Unisex Toilets
In a high school history class many moons ago, the term project was to stage a series of controversial constitutional debates (the military draft, abortion, you get it). Stellar luck that is mine, I was given the assignment of arguing against the Equal Rights Amendment. Like any proper slacker I waited until the night before to research. Fortunately, the arguments against the ERA were so simplistic, it was very easy to prepare my case: a constitutional amendment granting equal rights to women would mean – dear Jesus – unisex bathrooms. You’d be surprised …read more

Your normal programming has been interrupted for this important public service announcement:
Look like an idiot in 1 easy step: pimp an IQ widget on your blog!
Online IQ tests are a joke (but you know this). Even if they claim to be “real”. They’re not.
Guess what? Mensa is a joke, too.
The vos Savant method will raise your IQ a few notches, but does this really mean anything?
Even the merit of a “real” IQ test is debatable, because IQ is a controversial concept. Evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould and the pioneering Alfred Binet disputed the validity of IQ (among many others).
If you …read more

I just love when psychology serves up a big dish of Boo Yah. The two-second version, if you believe the authors: men want sex, women want security, nobody wants leftovers for dinner again. From Psychology Today, 10 politically incorrect observations about humans:
10. Gentlemen really do prefer blonds. Everyone prefers blue eyes.
Nobody prefers patchouli.

9. Monogamy is unnatural.
But still the best way to get new china.
8. Monogamy helps undesirable dudes stand more than a chance of a snow cone in hell when it comes to getting a mate. Not so for the ladies. Monogamous societies make it more difficult for women …read more

Not only unhealthy, but guaranteed to offend somebody!
Step 1:
For fun, fry potatoes in horse fat. Yes, horse fat. (I know a certain someone who’s gonna be emailing me in horror in about two seconds…coughcollinscough). Don’t worry, it gets way more offensive. I mean, if you’re gonna eat a horse, you might as well go whole hog. And by hog I mean veal.
Step 2:
Next, dunk fries in veal gravy. Now, veal is not really the glamour child of unacceptable meats these days. Freaking out about veal is so, like, seventies. Even Peta …read more
