I’ve seen dangerous-looking Christmas decorations at the mall before, but at least those looked like…well, Christmas decorations. This spiked ball looks like something you’d find at the end of a mace, or maybe on the end of a chain for some knight to swing around.
Maybe the order called for a “morning star” and someone got confused?
Someone went through and scraped off all the Bs from the windows at the local ex-Borders.
Insert obligatory Army of Darkness reference here. I wonder if their “always fresh” guarantee applies to boom sticks… (Found in Torrance, California.)
On a vaguely related note, Incredible Cafe is no more. It’s now Four Brothers Burger Grill. I wonder where they came up with that naming scheme.
Seriously? Bacon flavoring syrup?
While I was looking for cinnamon, someone else spotted it and said, “Bacon? You might as well have beef!” (He was looking for peppermint.)
Would you buy this? What would you make with it? A bacon latte? A bacon margarita?
Found this photo I took back when Super 8 was in theaters. It’s funny how, when you get used to emoticons, they just kind of insist on being read.
This one’s right up there with Windows XP.
By now, you’ve heard that Netflix is splitting their business in two: one for streaming movies over the internet, which will keep the name, and one for renting DVDs by mail, which will be called Qwikster.
Edit: As I described it on Google+ last week:
Dairy farms get together to raise prices, putting the squeeze on your local grocery store. The local store raises their prices to cover their higher costs. People blame the grocery store.
Then the grocery store responds by spinning off a separate store. One store will only sell milk in cardboard cartons and cheese. The other store will only sell milk in plastic bottles or yogurt. This is, of course, to make your life easier.
Anyway.
Here are links to several funny (and a couple of serious) takes on the situation.
It’s September 13. Technically it’s still SUMMER.
