So this one is almost specifically for Matt V and maybe Bobby, but I was doing more research on the astrophysical implications of creating Hadron Colliders and this article explains the macroscopic effects of TeV-scale black holes very well.
Of course if you misspell "Large Hadron Collider" you will end up with an article that displays this diagram:


Thanks to Miriam for this article on a pig that wears boots.
Click the pig for the article.

Eventually I will ride the Trans Siberian Express, so why not research train travel now?
The Man in Seat 61, is a great website with a ton of information on international train travel.

Then I found out how to 'Google Bomb' someone.

Sadly, George Carlin died. He was truly one of the great comedic minds of our time. True, not all of his jokes were pure gold, but nobody as a 100% joke rate. He made great strides in defending our freedom of speech and was one of the forefathers of shock comedy.

Apparently, I don't keep up with pop culture enough. I had no idea that when they talked about Amy Winehouse's 'drug problems' they were talking about crack.

This exchange was on Craigslist MC today:

Why would you owe her one? It's her damn job to hand out free red bull to everyone, you're not special. She doesn't give a s*** what you think.





Real Talk by R Kelly.
Genius.
Thanks to Matt V. for this

Reason #12
Random Hugs

Sometimes you're just talking to ethan and you get a random hug. Mid 'conversation'. I recommend that all people adopt this idea.



When the rapture happens how do you tell all your non believing friends "I told you so?"

http://www.youvebeenleftbehind.com/

That's right! Now there's a site that will send out emails to your friends and family 6 days after the physical bodies of believers are sucked up into heaven (a non physical realm).

Thank God.
Literally!

The director of the human resources department approached me today about my resignation. He said two things: 1. you're losing your mind. 2. maybe we'll get you a giraffe for your going away.

what?
so then he said, 'like a stuffed giraffe'....
?
"wait, what are those things with humps?"
camels?
yes, how about we get you a stuffed camel for your going away
well, i'm never one to look a gift camel in the mouth

Those are toy cat paws in the picture.


This will be an ongoing series here on Hamburger(Hotdog).
It is called "Why is my nephew so totally awesome (Tawesome)"

Reason #4 - Super adorable.



Real or not, this is funny. Click on the pic for a larger version
of one of the best personal ads ever.


Robin Williams and Bobcat Goldthwait are teaming up in an upcoming 'comedy' entitled "World's Greatest Dad"
I promise this is real and not a lost Mr. Show skit. From the press release, "Williams will play a failed writer teaching poetry at the high school. When his teenage son dies during a freak masturbation accident..."


So the military has taken to torturing prisoners with loud music blasted into their cell all day/night. The article in the guardian goes on to describe the torture tactic and the common playlists of torture.
So here's some of the most interesting parts:
"Inevitably, when poorly trained interrogators are encouraged to let their imaginations soar, they veer towards their own idiosyncratic perversions. One budding Emcee artfully mixed the sound of crying babies with a television commercial for Meow Mix cat food."
Some artists are not offended by their work being used to torture. "If the Iraqis aren't used to freedom, then I'm glad to be part of their exposure," James Hetfield, co-founder of Metallica, has said. As for his music being torture, he laughed: "We've been punishing our parents, our wives, our loved ones with this music for ever. Why should the Iraqis be any different?"

Dear James Hetfield, you are a total dick. I would like to lock you in a room and play all the pop songs I downloaded from napster in the early 90's.
Love,
Jimi

So apparently there is a new craze in the UK called 'dipping' which involves using google maps to find pools in your area, contacting friends via facebook, and arranging a meeting. People show up in 'fancy dress' and ride bikes for swift getaways. The owners usually only know their pool has been crashed when they find the empty beer cans.

brilliant.

If only we had those resources here in the states...




I guess you have to click it to read it, sorry


This blog will blow your mind. She has no time for "no account fools" so don't check it out if you are one. Also, her favorite movie is Leonard 6 and her favorite book is Dr. Phil Getting Real

Here's some choice quotes just from today...

On Food/Tipping -
"I had given her some money to pay for my Chinese food delivery while I was in a meeting. The driver gave her hell because I had only included enough money for the Sesame chicken and crab rangoons, and he wanted a tip. She even had the nerve to knock on the meeting room door to ask me for tip money."
On Puff Daddy -
"That man knows how to keep a woman happy! These hairy fools out there could learn a thing or two from this classy and talented gentleman!"
On Yogurt -
"And as you probably know, men like their women the way they like their yogurt: With the fruit on the bottom! That's why it's important for us to keep that ass fat! Head to McDonald's on that snack break! You and your man will be glad you did!
"

Also, I've been commenting on the posts, sometimes as anonymous sometimes as myself.

So there I was, 'checkin my sites' at work this morning and I was newsin it up on the GuardianUk and who do I see? Turbo! On the front page!
It's pretty weird to see a friend on the front page of an international news site. It's even weirder that they put the wrong link to the article so when you clicked on Turbo it brought you to "Homosexuality: Biology or Choice." Seriously.


"And they were so friendly. I would not want to live that life, but it was very, very wonderful to see that, you know, that that still goes on in this world."
