See you in Hell, November!


                            Park                                                             






I don’t know about you but I am over November. OVER IT.  Gray skies, short days, people making boring small talk about how it's almost winter and how they have to put snow tires on the car and blah, blah, blah. Seriously, why does no one ever get inspired by crappy weather to talk about the super powers they would have if they could or which Doctor Who is the best? (the most recent, duh! well unless the toad in a child's toy from the picture to the left is cast) Even listening to Drake on repeat isn't helping (What? I'm from Toronto.  It's pretty much the law). 

Well it looks like I’m not the only one who's over November.  The animal world is totally on my side (Buzzfeed)

More Human Than Human

Pinky McLadybits






Do you like The Avengers? How about books? Hedgehogs? Today is your lucky day, weirdo. (Pleated Jeans)

Four girls in Nigeria created a urine-powered generator for Maker Faire Africa this year. Ingenious! (Maker Faire Africa)

Now this is also interesting. There is an offshoot of the Occupy Wall Street movement that is looking to collect money so that they can purchase people's debt, ridding them of it. (Rolling Jubilee)

Science Can Be Terrifying....


Park





Well, its Thursday and I've been stuck inside all week with the cold from hell.  What does that mean? It means I've used the internet to discover a few wonderful things. Oh, and several that fill me with fear.  So, um, I came out even?

Apparently there was a long-standing debate about how fleas jumped 200 TIMES THEIR OWN HEIGHT....ahhhhhhhhhh! Sorry, um, so that's been discovered. As for me, I've coined a new term to describe this field of study:
 fascinaterrifying (Science Dump)


And now on to something horrifying in a different way: earworm Disney lyrics.  Want to know exactly where those lyrics stuck in your head for three days are actually from? This quiz has got you covered.  Oh, also maybe do a bit of a humble brag in front of Disney nerds if you get a higher score then them (ChaCha)

World's Most Famous Party Crasher Announces Summer Tour (In My Dreams)

Oh, how I wish this first story were true.  If it were, I'd start making my sign right now.  I would LOVE to have Bill Murray crash at my place.  Who wouldn't want to sing karaoke with him??  (Super Official News)

This, on the other hand, is a true story, sadly.  Apparently, two strip clubs in Florida are fighting over the "right" to feature Octomom Nadya Suleman as a dancer.  Why on Earth would you want to pay money to watch that woman strip?  (HuffPo)

Ugh, I feel icky from that last link.  Time for a cute chaser!  Here's a slideshow of a Shar Pei who took in a couple of abandoned tiger cubs.  (SF Gate)

Raise Your Perfectly Shaped Brows At These

The title at this link says it all. "Buffalo Chicken Wing Cupcakes, Because This is America" (Food Beast)

There have been some pretty creative 404 pages, but this is the best 404 page ever. You may want to turn down the volume before clicking if your workplace doesn't like loud AWESOME. (via The Daily What)

I've only seen the Britney Spears episode of How I Met Your Mother. I have seen all of the episodes of Friends. I can still appreciate this comparison of the two. (IMGUR)

Speaking of HIMYM, Jason Segel, perpetual Hot Ink crush, was named Harvard Hasty Pudding Man of the Year. (Yahoo!)

Zaclor? Swifron? I'm Bad At This.

It's good to know that some actors realize that they are in sucky movies. However, Heigl and Cusack have lost their damn minds if they think those were their worst movies. (mental floss)

What if iPod games had Facebook accounts? If you guessed "Shit would be awesome", you would be correct. (Dorkly)

I have got to get a game system that will allow me to play Resident Evil 6. I still haven't played 5. Sad panda. (Topless Robot)

Hot Links: In Home Pot Sales? Yeah, That Sounded Legit.

Pinky and Nora



My bathroom has tile that I hate and when I'm in there I like to stare at it in hatred. Sometimes I see yetis, demons, and Lindsey Lohan in the different shapes. It's good to know that everyone's brain does this. (Wired)

I KNEW IT! (The Onion)

Do you listen to NPR? Perhaps you listen to Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me!. Either way, you can take their daily quiz to see how informed you are. (NPR)

I have trouble making new friends with other ladies. I'm self-conscious, afraid of being seen as too gross or something. Luckily for me, INTERNET! Number 5 on this list is my favorite, as some of the friends I talk to the most are new, online pals. (HelloGiggles

Hot Links: If I Eat The Wolverine Cookie, Will He Regenerate?

Daenerys was my favorite character in Game of Thrones and in the books. Well, Tyrion was too. And Arya! Jon Snow is pretty good...ANYWAY, someone made cupcakes that are strong like Dothraki! (justJENN Recipes)

Well that's just great. The time I tweeted about putting my bra on my dog's head to make a Weird Science joke will forever live in the Library of Congress. Still worth it. (Federal News Radio)

Have you ever looked at the reviews for odd Amazon products? There are some hilarious people out there with time on their hands. Start with these Otomix Baggy Workout Gym Pants in American Flag. Sample review: "What they don't tell you is that the two side seam pockets will neatly hold up to 24 Slim Jims."(Amazon)
