1) Super Slimming Tea- As long as you get something caffeine free, tea is an awesome way to lose weight. Green tea and black tea are great for morning times. But super slimming tea with senna in it can help for beddy bye time. Adherents swear by the stuff. 2) Chia Seeds. Yup, chia seeds. Apparently they have all kinds of amazing stuff in them and make you feel fuller. You can ‘em in baking, and cooking alike. Apparently they taste like whatever you’re eating at the time. Which may or may not be jalapeno cheese cheetos. (To see things in the seed, that is genius. Lao Tzu) 3) Tape Worm. This is obviously the worst idea ever. And...

This needs no explanation Honey Boo Boo Child Well…actually it does. Wise beyond her years with the confidence of trailer trash at least ten years her senior, this pint-size ruffian actually makes me like pageant kids. I mean she says “a dollah makes me hollah!” while her...

At least that’s what I think they’re saying in this article from Inc. magazine. See, the author looked around for a definition of what an entrepreneur is and finally found it, in some dusty old textbook and it’s shockingly relevant. Ready? Brace yourself...

This little boy has down syndrome. He’s not being pointed to with big ass flashing red arrow, he’s not being “celebrated” or pandered to. Target and Nordstrom who have both used little Ryan (ADORI-BALLS!) have made it a point to say nothing about this super cool step...

I know you have that friend, and I have that friend. That friend that is 40 but looks 25 in her pics. That girl that airbrushes out everything but her eyes. Well, this is the reason why she is the way she is. It’s all Fotoshop’s fault. Fotoshop by Adobé from Jesse Rosten on...

If you want art that will offend your parents, gross out your kids, check out this art line featured on Fab by Ashkan Shahparnia, Artist, ASHKAHN Actually it’s pretty cool looking if you ask me, but one must wonder where the idea for the “Evolution of the Muff” line came...

It is possible that Charles Barkley is a funny man when not tethered to a script or in any way expected to be funny. I didn’t watch this past week’s SNL because, well I thought he was about as interesting as a lump of old Brie last time. But even he couldn’t screw this skit...

Quote of the day The best advice I’ve even been given was from a fabulous Southern woman named Bobby Huff, in her soft Georgian drawl she said: “There are only two things worth paying full price for; one is a good pair of shoes and the other is a good mattress. ‘Cause if you are not in one, you are in the other.” ASOF (as seen on...

Just 10 Pounds
posted by Joy
It’s betting! It’s weight loss! It’s everything that makes America great! Honestly. This is it. This is genius. At Only Ten Pounds, you basically bet on yourself. The deal is this: You put $100 in the pot, then if you lose the weight (10 lbs) you get the cash back. The remaining cash is divided among the winners (those who lost the most weight). It’s a win win situation. Except for the broke fat guy at the end. But hey! Better luck next time...

There are lots of posts about things that will cost more and less in 2012. I really ONLY care about the things that will cost less though (because I am cheap) and of those lists…I really only care about one damn entry. The wine. Looks like 2012 is going to be MY year after all, Robert...

Apparently, 200K more jobs were added to our economy last month, which is news to Bennett, who can’t seem to find a job to save his life. This means (drumroll please) we’re at the low levels we saw in February of 2009! Um, I don’t know about you but people were pretty effing...

Yes, I spelled that right. Watch the vid where a very symmetrically-faced and articulate young man talks about how Canada is going to run our country so much better than we can. No seriously watch it, it’s hilarious. And he’s a little bit right. But just a little bit. Things...
Teaching O’Reilly about the percents
posted by Joy
You have to watch this. About a year or so ago, Bill O’Reilly and tiny blond women Foxites whose combined age is maybe 42 slam the Netherlands, calling it a “cesspool of corruption” and talking about how “naive” the city of Amsterdam is, for no reason and with one-liners that aren’t factual OR funny. So a smart dude that actually lives there responds in kind, citing actual comparative statistics on drug use and violence and showing great shots of happy, friendly people lining the streets. So, FOX shows this guy’s YouTube video and Bill and his co-horts attempt to I guess… talk about it?...
