Things stuck to the bottom of my internet shoe.
Things not to do while wearing briefs made of beef jerky. (Besides wearing briefs made of beef jerky)
Venezuelans believe children should not watch The Simpsons, offer more wholesome fare instead.
One way to nearly guarantee you'll never lose your wedding ring. I hope this is photoshopped (and when did this become an acceptable verb, anyway).
Flags of the world redefined with graphic legends.
USA
European Union
Colombia
China

I showed this picture to my wife. She said, "Oh yes, that's our new remote."

Tattooing's Last Frontier
Aside from internal organs, there doesn't seem to have been any body part un-tattooed except for the eyeball. Until now. Colored contact lenses weren't good enough for this guy and I really expect him to be the first guy with a spleen tattoo. Go »
Christmas Post #19: More Weird Plushies

Bunch O' Stuff
