Ugly kid's generic cereal mascots found at Food...
So here in North Carolina, one of our local cheap grocery stores is Food Lion. If you’re not familiar with Food Lion, you may remember they were the grocery store that was caught on tape years ago with less than sanitary practices in their meat department. Anyway, on a quick trip to Food Lion today, I got pictures of several pictures of the hideous mascots on their generic cereals. These...

RIM set to launch its own Blackberry tablet in...
When Research in Motion (RIM) picked up Blackpad.com a few days ago, most people were hoping that it was just one of those all-encompassing brand protection moves, but alas, Blackpad is going to be the name of Blackberry’s iPad competitor, which will probably be launching around November.
Prices and specs are expected to be very close to the iPad, though the Blackpad would allow tethering...

So it's official that the Total Recall remake is...
The internet’s been hearing about rumors of a Total Recall remake for about a year, and until now I was hoping it was all a bad joke. The world needs a Total Recall remake like it needs a remake of Ferris Bueller or Back to the Future… or Karate Kid. It doesn’t. Leave it alone. But regardless, Sony greenlit the project and hired Len Wiseman (Underworld, Live Free or Die Hard)...

North Korean soccer team shamed in six-hour public...
After a dismal showing at this year’s World Cup, many asked what would come of the players and coaches of the North Korean team? Considering that in their last WC showing in 1966, despite stunning Italy to be the first Asian team to make it to the quarters, the players were still sentenced to hard labor for not winning, it was feared these current players might receive worse.
Lucky for...

Google adds real-time weather to Google Earth 5.2
In the latest release of Google Earth available now, you’ll be able to turn on a “clouds” feature, giving you a real time weather overlay so you can if it’s raining or if it’s snowing and where a hurricane is blowing. Right now, it’s just got weather data for some of North America and Western Europe, but one day you’ll be able to watch monsoon season in...

5 fun facts about the vagina (Possibly NSFW)
Men or women— gynecologists excluded, obv— how much do you know about the vagina? Are you a VAGINA EXPERT? As Aaron Neville once said “I don’t know much, but I know how to love you. And that may be all I need to know.” Know what I’m sayin’ ladies? Wink.

Are IHC and other websites running slow on...
Since I use mostly Chrome (insert smug look here), I haven’t noticed this problem, but Delsyd just told me that both IHC and Fark kept hanging up on him and the problem was an unresponsive script from b.scorecardresearch.com. The problem seems to be limited to Firefox only right now, but the script, which is in a number of ads, from Technorati and pre-built into a number of content...

Was Inception inspired by the anime movie Paprika?
One of the latest theories about the making of Inception was that it was perhaps somewhat inspired by Satoshi Kon’s 2006 anime film Paprika. I’m not about to even begin to levy negative charges against Chris Nolan, because Inception is indeed a complete and wonderfully told story in and of itself that he had apparently been working on for years before Paprika even came out, but it...

Mighty morphing dinosaurs may have been tricking...
As it turns out, some dinosaurs may not be what we think they are— again. While we envision species like triceratops as the dinosaur with the three horns and head shield, what we may actually be looking at is a far more boring adolescent torosaurus before it reabsorbed its horns and changed its skull shape once it was beyond its lady-swooning years. Dammit.
This discovery comes from a...

Dude, wtf? I think these Washington fucks just... →
Good news crackheads! Congress recently passed a bill that reduces the federal sentences for crack to match the sentences for cocaine. Currently, someone convicted of crack possession gets the same sentence as someone who is caught with 100x that amount of cocaine. Finally poor crackheads and rich, white collar cokeheads will be able to sit hand in hand in prison. Kumbaya.

The Evolution of Gaming Soap Set: But I don't want...
These video game controller-shaped soaps look pretty cool, but it’s probably some sort of trap to try and get me to wash. BUT IT WON’T WORK.
The set includes:
A realistic Xbox controller replica, Mountain Dew scented.
A hefty, 9 ounce black PlayStation controller replica, black tea scented.
A Wiimote controller replica soap scented with coconut lime verbena fragrance oil.

Those 100 million Facebook profiles? They're being...
A couple days ago, 100 million Facebook profiles were scraped from the site and ended up on torrent sites. That’s fucked up enough, but who’s downloading all these profiles? A whole lot of people who are wondering if they’re on the list, a few people who are just curious… and a whole lot of corporations who want your personal info.
Facebook says that all the information...

Happy 70th birthday Bugs Bunny!
Seventy years ago and three days, Bug Bunny was first introduced to the world in the cartoon “A Wild Hare”, and the rest is history. Sometimes Bug has been negatively compared to Disney’s black and white rodent, but Mickey’s a pussy. Bugs is where it’s at. Prove me wrong.

Scientists measure the shortest amount of time...
Proving your girlfriend wrong, there is a shorter amount of time than “Was that it?” Scientists in Germany decided to hit electrons with light and then measure how quickly they moved. The result was 20 attoseconds, the shortest period of time ever measured. One attosecond is one quintillionth of a second.
When light is absorbed by atoms, the electrons become excited. If the light...
