In honor of Valentine’s Day, check out this bizarre sight we found at (of all places) Borders a while back:
Yes, it’s Star Trek perfume inspired by the Vulcan mating urge.
But, wait, there’s more!
Apparently, they want you to believe that Starfleet Medical has isolated the factor that made Captain James T. Kirk a 23rd century Casanova (in SPAAACE!) and have bottled it to sell.
All right! Five whole cents’ savings!
Now, I realize this is simply a brand name, probably inspired by the “pure” part of the slogan…but I can’t help but be reminded of the brief fad for clear products in the early 1990s. Remember Crystal Pepsi? Of course you don’t.
Saturday Night Live summed up just how unappetizing this fad really was in two words: Crystal Gravy.
Thankfully, Crystal Hot Sauce is not clear (as you can see!), and actually tasted pretty good.
“Weird Al” Yankovic posted a picture of a disturbing sign on a hiking trail:
Spotted in a parking garage this weekend.
Let me guess: Magritte designed this building.
I saw a car this morning with the license plate “ZU SHNL.” It took me a minute to realize it was “zu schnell” – German for “Too fast!” (It was a Mazda.)
