Sorry, "moose lasagna", did you say??

So IKEA (the home furnishings store) has been in the news recently for selling meat products that are either mislabelled or have improper ingredients. Like meatballs and such that contain horse meat. Yes, I'm still talking about the home furnishings store, yeah.

This time around they removed 17,000 portions of moose lasagna from their shelves because it contained 1.6% pork.

Hmm. That's not good.

What's worse is that apparently nobody notices that up to 98.4% of the lasagna is FREAKING MOOSE MEAT!

Why is IKEA, a home furnishings store, in the meat business?  That's as ridiculous as, well, a meat shop selling sofas. Or a kid's lemonade stand where they also sell meth.

"Fly, Bullwinkle! IKEA is coming!!"

Hey Nabisco! I'm onto you, you bastards....

I've posted before about companies increasing the prices of food items while giving you less food. Granola bars getting smaller AND having less bars per box, etc.

Here's how damn picky I get about this stuff:

I like to buy Chewy Chips Ahoy cookies from time to time.  Years ago, when I really noticed this trend off giving you less for more, I saw that Nabisco started packaging these cookies ia a plastic bin with four compartments, like so:

Almost because of this odd packaging, I decided to count how many cookies were in each compartment, and the number was 7 in each. So you got a total of 28 cookies when you bought a package of Chewy Chips Ahoy, and this has been the case for quite a while. I don't know how many you got prior to this style of packaging, but I'd think it's safe to wager you got a hell of a lot more than 28.

The picture above is from a package I opened today. I actually try not to buy these cookies cuz I hate that you only get so few, but, darn it, I like the taste.  So I open up the packaging, and noticed something different today. This package now only had 6 cookies per compartment.

That's right, now we're down to 24 cookies and the price most certainly didn't go down. I'm paying close to $4.00 for 24 tiny cookies.

Screw you, Nabisco. Think I'll give you less of my money in return.

This would be very funny if it weren't also true

Ladies, I dare you to look at this picture and believe it's okay

Yes, it's current Sports Illustrated supermodel Kate Upton. And, what's that?! Wait! It can't be!!  She actually has enough meat on her body to cause a little roll on the side of her stomach like that in this pose?

But aren't models supposed to look inhuman?  To just be skin and bones? What the hell??! The apocalypse IS NIGH!!!!!!!! Where's the Photoshop for real life??

Whatever. :^)

Ladies, you're beautiful. Whether or not you look like Kate, that's beside the point.  At least she doesn't look like a straw. Curves are sexy, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I so have a crush on Jennifer Lawrence

Even more so after seeing this.

Meteor over Russia

Just a nice little reminder that we oughta be paying attention to things from OUTSIDE this planet they may end up killing us all some day. We're so focussed on what's going on between our cultures, religions, or our reality shows that we all need little reminders like this to (hopefully) make a bunch of the world step back and go "Oh, yeah.....forgot about stuff like that..."

Russian meteor blast injures over 1000 people



Here's another video compilation with video from different angles.  Near the end can be heard the massive explosion(s) of the meteor in the upper atmosphere.  The reason that you don't SEE it exploding at the time of the sound is because it took the sound a while to travel from way up there down to the earth's surface for us humans to hear and feel it.  When the meteor turns brightest is when that massive explosion sound was actually occurring.



One thing I don't get (and this has nothing to do with the meteor itself) is why are so many people videotaping while they are driving??  Is this some cool hipster thing I don't understand? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they did, cuz otherwise we wouldn't have been able to see this awesome spectacle like this. But, what's up? Hey, I also don't get why people think it's cool to take Facebook profile pictures of themselves while they are sitting in their cars....

At supervision of my structure??

I love getting foreign spam. Haven't gotten a good one in a while, but thought I'd share.  This is so stupid it's hilarious.

Hello! What is your name? At supervision of your structure I very much
have become interested in you. My name is Anna. If you want with me
to communicate then write to me. If you write to me do not forget to
specify yours e-mail of the address that I could answer to you. I hope
you write to [bullshit e-mail address of a Russian hacker more than likely]

Atheism in the news

A Newtown conspiracy? Are you f**king kidding me?!

For some idiots, the government must have god-like powers of manipulation. Otherwise they wouldn't be such afraid, insecure and paranoid people who flock to the internet to hide behind in order to post their beliefs. I can't even begin to think how somebody's brain gets started in thinking that "the government" would be behind the shooting of children in order to affect better gun laws.

At least the conspiracy theorists don't take party sides, I'll give them that.  Doesn't matter if it's Obama and guns or Bush and WMD's/9-11.

But these theorists are still morons. Some of them very accredited morons, apparently.

There are some situations where the internet was the dumbest thing ever because it makes stupid people even more stupid with the ability to find more of their stupid kind.

People, please....

....it's time to take the Rudolph nose and antlers off your cars.....
