Kinda cool. But I still probably won’t buy the iPad. I can’t help but think of Penny’s fancy book from Inspector Gadget though when I see it. I used to totally want one of those so bad as a kid!

Yup. Thanks to my Coworker for sharing this with me (found on Gawker). This is a 2.5 foot sea bug aka giant isopod scientists found in the ocean. Well it’s official. I will never go into the ocean again.

Look! The giant cockroach is smiling.

One of our hilarious readers from iloveboyswhosparkle.com sent us these snow photos. She’s in Baltimore right now, and it pretty much sums up the weather there (and everywhere else back east). God speed.

Quick go to this site to prepare for The End!

I love how the snow storm that’s hitting the east is being dubbed end of the world names like “Snowpacalyse,” “Snowmageddon” and  “The Snow Rapture.” Okay that last one I made up. But you have to admit, the terms the news has been using to describe the storm are hilarious. It’s like something you’d use to describe an abusive relationship:

Batters
Pulverizes
Pummels
Chokes
Wallops
Paralyzes
Slaps <–seriously??

Is the storm wearing a wifebeater too?

And now, funny pictures of cars buried in snow, just because:

Even this weather man is freaking out! 14-22 inches people!!!

Who is this kid??

So evidently Justin Bieber, who I still don’t understand where he came from, and Ludacris did a song together called “Baby.” There’s a combo I never saw coming, especially after listening to Ludacris all these years with his amazing lyrics like:

Cant turn a ho into a housewife
Hos dont act right
Theres hos on a mission, an hoes on a crackpipe
Hey ho how ya doin, where ya been?
Prolly doin ho stuff cuz there you ho again
Its a ho wide world, that we livin in
feline, feminine, fantastical, women
Not all, just some
You ho who you are
Theres hoes in tha room, theres hoes in tha car
theres hoes on stage, theres hoes by tha bar
hos by near, an hos by far

Thankfully he left the rapping all to Luda. But I can’t wait for the Biebers to spout off lyrics like “My diamonds are reckless. Feels like a midget hangin’ from my necklace.”

Caught ya looking ;) Well, there’s no naughty, nudey pics here but unfortunately for a certain Australian banker, his naughty, nudey pics that he likes to look at while “working” were broadcast live from the bank’s trading floor during an onscreen interview for Australia’s The Seven Network TV. Check out the vid…

It cracks me up how oblivious this guy is. At first you’re watching and you see him pull up these curious looking pictures, but you say to yourself, “No, there’s no way. He’s not that dumb.” And then man oh man, that third picture pops up and you’re like WTF buddy? A little subtlety please?!? And the look on his face when he figures out the hot water he just landed himself in….priceless. What makes me laugh even harder is that Jeff works on a trading floor that looks identical to this one and they do live broadcasts there all the time for CNBC. I always see him walking around in the background doing various things, (Way to work that camera honey!), but I’m totally going to keep my eye out now for some naughty shenanigans!

Feast your eyes on the upcoming cover of Vanity Fair. It’s a spread that the magazine does annually to feature who they believe are the up and coming female actresses in “young hollywood.” So what do you think? Does it look a bit odd to you? Do you feel like something’s missing? Well, you’re not alone if you do. A downright uproar has occurred over this little cover shoot and its “lack of diversity.” Apparently this is the second year in a row that the magazine has been slammed for the stereotypical group that it has chosen for it’s cover. Yes, they’re all thin, somewhat dough-eyed, and very, very, white. Not just Caucasian-white, but like Cullen Vampire family white. They look like they all went swimming in a pool of bisquick.

Thoughts? Feelings on the matter? I’m personally a little jazzed that not a single one of them is tan. Chalk one up for the pale girls! Woot, woot!
