You really should delete all of your information before selling old phones. If you don't, you might become fodder for an artist's book. (Buzz Feed)

I mean, if scientists can discover a way to create human cartilage, then you can figure out how to work your old Razr. (IOP)

Is it just me? Am I the only one that doesn't find this prank of camping out in front of a 99 cent store for Black Friday funny? Or especially clever as a way to shove our obsession with consumerism in our faces? (Laughing Squid)

This Lolcat Represents How I Feel About Today. Also, IT'S SO FREAKING CUTE!

 Happy Wednesday, y'all.  Is it me or is this week just slooooooowly dragging along?  You could probably use a pick-me-up or twelve.  So I found these links for you.  Because I'm a frickin' sweetheart sometimes. 

Let's get things started with some bracket fun!  I don't mean NCAA brackets - lord knows mine are all shot to hell (damn it, Michigan State!).  Over on io9, you can vote for the Worst Science Fiction Movie Ever!  (io9)

Well, of course Jesus is preapproved.  People have been giving him credit for YEARS.  (Consumerist)

Anyone who's pregnant or has been pregnant can relate to this hilarious article from Courtney Enlow.  And those of us who haven't been, we can learn from it (or get our tubes tied from fear, whatever).  (Pajiba)

Marijuana use among teenagers has reached a 30-year high. You know what this means, right? More meth for the grownups! (The New York Times )

OK, I know some people don't really care for the Muppets (Communisits, the Devil...etc.), but for everyone who loves and cherishes them as much as I do are these adorable knit hats. I think I need the Animal one. (Craftzine)

A couple of 20-year olds were busted for stealing water from a fire hydrant to build their very own backyard ice rink. Man, that's cool. (ThePostGame)

Complex has put together a list of the 15 Craziest Real World Girls. I'm baffled at their choice to place Coral at number 11. That b*tch is CRAY. (Complex)

Lucy is an American Staffordshire Terrier in New York that needs a forever home. Her previous owner abused her, beating her badly and leaving her bones to set so she has a slightly twisted snout. She's lovable and needs someone to help her forget about the asshole and abused her for 3.5 years. (Petfinder)

News Flash: Miley Cyrus doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut about drugs, mmmkay?

I was terrified of the Muppet Animal when I was younger. This might make the nightmares return.

Ah, to have so much money that I could buy something as stupid as this $1.1 million dollar breakfast plate.

Here's a story about an overweight passenger on a flight from the perspective of Arthur Berkowitz, the man that was supposed to sit in the seat next to the overweight passenger. Instead, the 400 pound man was given Berkowitz's seat and Berkowitz was forced to stand in the plane aisle. For 7 hours.

Jason Segel, you are so cute and I really enjoyed that dream I had with you and me in the shower together, but this? Could be a dealbreaker.

Holidays Are For Gifts & Weight Fears!:The December 2011 Issue of InStyle

Amy Adams is this month's InStyle cover girl. I like her, even though my husband would leave me in a second just to touch her face. She was the best thing about that horrible Museum movie with the things waking up and she was a pure badass in The Fighter. So. He could do worse.

The cover promises the "BEST DRESSES, TRENDS & OMGs OF 2011". Huh. It also declares that I can "EAT, DRINK, and DON'T GAIN A POUND THIS SEASON!" So the cover is basically yelling lies at me. 

This is not a good start, magazine that I don't remember ordering. Not good at all.

"Well, I want to go to Bombay, India and become a movie star.": OPI Gone Gonzo!

It was a tough decision. One of the toughest decisions I've made all week. I didn't flinch when I decided last-minute to get bangs today. No hesitation when I snatched up crawfish for jambalaya tonight without a thought beforehand. No regrets about eating that brownie sundae right before bed last night. But this? This was tough. How do you choose which of the OPI Muppets polishes to buy? HOW??

I was at ULTA to get my hair cut (see decision to get bangs, made in the car on the way to my appointment) and what greeted me as I entered? An OPI Muppets display! I damn near squeed in the front of the store. I knew then that I would be leaving with a new haircut and some new polish.
