I keep telling people that war is a bad thing, but no one seems to really listen. Then I tell them that most modern wars are nothing but excuses to cover up obscure political agendas, and they accuse me of being a conspiracy theorist. Fortunately though, there are still people (or at least antropomorphic dogs) of good sense out there, who are capable to see things for what they are.
Sadly, this funny clip reminds me of that old saying… “people are smart, but crowds are stupid” - which is this case could be rephrased as “people are smart, but Peter Griffins are stupid. I just keep wondering… it’s granted our public opinion is easily influenced and manipulated by the powers that be; what I really don’t get it is how come it only seems to work with negativity and hatred! If only people could be manipulated into realizing we’re better off getting all along… if only.
Okay. So one day I’m gonna write this post featuring a special compilation of the most asinine and ridiculously funny signs ever to come out from the land of the rising sun. And you know what? I have a feeling this picture here will be making the headlines. However I must admit that it actually makes sense… I mean, anyone who has vomited is well aware that it makes you feel better (well unless you’re bulimic, I guess… but that’s a whole different game I’m talking). But still… in what context would a sign like this ever be conceived? I’d certainly like to know.
Do you remember what it was like to go through High School? Some people think of that as the best time of their life, while others think it’s the worse. Then, some people think of their graduation speeches as a chance to say a lot of senseless crap, and then some people take that opportunity to make something innovative and memorable. Case in point, I’m about to show with with a very special video from a peculiar kid who falls somewhere in between, while successfully captivating the crowd’s imagination. Ah… those kids nowadays.
Not at all unlike life, the popular tv show “the wheel of Fortune” is capable of amusing us with oftentimes unpredictable moments of sheer amusement and irony. Today I’m about to show you one such video, along with a heads-up: sometimes we’re only treated with loss because we fail to see how triumph is just waiting for us to call its name. Similarly, there are occasions when our small distractions easily transmute into genuine self-fulfilling prophecies. So do you best to remain alert in your daily endeavours, and (why not) make room for good things to happen in your life!
In its 17th annual words of the year vote, the American Dialect Society voted “plutoed” as the word of the year, in a run-off against climate canary. To pluto is to demote or devalue someone or something, as happened to the former planet Pluto when the General Assembly of
the International Astronomical Union decided Pluto no longer met its definition of a planet.Source
Okay, so you have probably heard about the de-promotion of pluto the planet (not pluto the dog, he’s still held in high remarks), but chances are you didn’t know that an actual new word had been coined out of the surrounding affair. So please update your dictionaries, and take stock of what “getting plutoed” means… while hoping you never have to experience that personally.
Yeah, we all know science can be cruel, it its self-ascribed righteousness and delusions of “objectivity”… but come on… the lil’ guy had been hanging tight for so many years along with the rest of the solar system. Was there really an actual need to get technical and pick on him… actually pick him out from the bunch? Shame on you, scientific people. For all your brains’ worth, it’s clear to me you have no hearts, and you’ve just proved so with this pluto issue.
You might was well hope science doesn’t get pluto’ed someday when they discover the next best thing. You hear me? Now LEAVE PLUTO ALONE! You don’t know what it’s been through! You don’t know what it’s like to be a floating mass in the outskirts of a solar system. You don’t know, do you? With all your scientific methods, and measurement scales and whatnot, you really don’t know what it’s like to be a planet. So, leave pluto alone! I mean, let him join the rest of planets like in the good old days. Can’t we just get back to being a good and happy solar system, like we used to?
Well… ARRGHH! What can I say? Apparently, yesterday (Sep 19th) was “talk like a pirate day“. If you thought I’d leave such occasion go by unmarked, then ya best thing again, mate! ARRRGH, And since my own piratey jargon is not so quivering hip as I possibly might wish, I won’t purpose to embarass myself by making a futile attempt of engaging a conversation (monologue) in pirate dialect. Sooo, instead I’ve rounded up a selection of some my bestest favourite scurvy dog talk from across the vast youtube landscapes. Arrgh, enjoy, and rest assured that next year I’ll be joining the ranks of willing and able vocabulist pirateers… just as soon as I memorize this.
Allright, children! Let’s think of today’s slice as a public service announcement, concerning a sensible but important issue from within our contemporary society. Let’s get on with it using a simple metaphor: Maybe you can’t see it right away, so first you should step away from your computer screen. Can you see it, already? If not, take a step further back, while keeping sight on the screen? Is something coming up? Well, when you manage to see the surprise guest with your own two eyes, maybe it’s best to run away! That goes for the great offline wilderness, too! You should always keep a delicate balance between trusting strangers and being cautious on who you trust. In case of doubt, double check with your parents!
Ladies and Germs, today I’m about to display what could quite possibly be the most astounding fortune teller you’ve ever seen in both your dreams and waking life. Step inside for some moments of pure enjoyment and delight, as the Youtube fortune teller shows his divinatory might. Watch real close and do as he says: when the mystical cue is presented you’ll need to hold your mouse and rub the crystal ball… this way, your true destiny shall be foretold!
What can I say? Following the best tradition of ninja-class sneaky cass that I’ve been posting about lately, here´s something equally astounding, perhaps even more so. You know, there’s something about dogs that I really admire… besides their innate cleverness, these animals sure enjoy their freedom. And when both traits get combined (such as in the following video), wonderful and amazing things tend to happen. Just watch:
I don’t usually take much pleasure into cutting slices focusing political themes, particularly not when it’s a sad, depressing and cowboy-like political theme; however today I’ll make an exception. You see, It’s not everyday that I find a graphic evidence which is capable of showcasing the true genius of the soon-to-be no longer president of the USA. But today a fresh friend of mine forwarded this little cartoon and I simply couldn’t resist putting it here for everyone to see.
So without further due, just make sure to click the picture to get an enlarged version - but I guess you know that, otherwise I might as well get you a little flag for you to play with, right?
