It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Quoted - Dan Savage on What The Bible Got Wrong

"The shortest book in the New Testament is a letter from Paul to a Christian slave owner about owning his Christian slave.

And Paul doesn’t say, "Christians don’t own people." Paul talks about how Christians own people.

We ignore what the Bible said about slavery because the Bible  got slavery wrong.

If the Bible got the easiest moral question that humanity has ever faced wrong, what are the odds that the Bible got something as complicated as human sexuality wrong?"

Foods That Will Make You Fat - Issue No. 26

So here we are again - I'm about to re-instate my most beloved series, "Foods That Will Make You Fat", and today's issue will have you bewildered.   

Who on God's green earth makes a Nacho Pizza CakeAnd this Easter Sundae would make the Lord turn over in his grave.  Oh wait...
Easter Sundae
So yeah, Jesus has already left the building, but he wouldn't be too happy with this concoction.  OMG, this is the most disgusting thing I've ever posted on my series.  Seriously.   This lovely parfait consists of a chocolate fondue drizzled over egg, turkey, gravy, crab leg and chicken nuggets.  So now you know what to do with all those frozen Thanksgiving left overs!
 
Death Sausage
If you want to die early, eat a few of these.  They're sure to make you have a heart attack or stroke.  This lovely piece of meat consists of 3 pounds of ground beef, 2 pounds country sausage, 2 pounds smoked bacon, 1 pound andouille sausage, 1 pound chicken strips, and 4 regular size hotdogs, seasoned with various sauces and spices such as BBQ sauce, baconnaise, and bacon flavored seasoning salt.  So, have you died and gone to heaven already?  Lord knows you have a sundae up there you can make for dessert.

Nacho Pizza Cake
I don't even know where to start with this crap. But I'm going to say there's some type of frosting, pancakes, syrup or cheese, and some Tostitos in this lovely, hot mess.

Oh no!  I think I just figured it out!  I bet you it's a meat-lovers pizza covered with the cinna-stix glaze. O-kay, I've had enough.

YES!  THESE FOODS WILL MAKE YOU FAT! 

The Nerd of Thrones!

I'm not sure how many of you watch Game of Thrones.  If you're not watching, I don't know what's wrong with you!  It's like the best show ever!  Well... aside from The Walking Dead, Spartacus, True Blood, Dexter, Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire and many others, but that's besides the point.

In Game of Thrones everyone wants to sit on the "Throne of Swords".  At the present time, the god-awful teeny-bopper king, Joffrey who nobody can stand and want dead, is sitting on this chair.

Well.... here comes the Nerd of Thrones!  LOL, yes, someone made a throne out of computer keyboards.  Quite hilarious, but I'm sure you gamers and computer geeks are eager to make one.
The artist, Mike DeWolfe has released the following statement:

The Throne of Nerds is made in honor of the Throne of Swords from the Game of Thrones TV series and fantasy series. It is constructed from 20+ computer keyboard mounted to a chair. The keyboards and have been shaped and melted to follow the form of the chair, the shape of the user, and to meld together into a combined whole.

The underlying message is one of suffering. The keyboards have been melted and warped. They’re made to twist to fit, but at the same time that renders them unuseable because they cannot fulfill their intended purpose. The keyboards are black and silver, and the underlying chair is white, but those colours have been replaced with black, in whole or in random splotches.

The keyboard warping includes the scorching of almost all of the ESC keys to symbolize how impossible it can be escape suffering and blackness. The only key that is consciously left undamaged is the ESC key on the highest positioned keyboard.

Around the back, the keyboard cables have been arranged like human hair with an attempt to braid the cables that is ultimately left in a tangle. This denotes how good plans and order can degenerate into chaos.

OMG Hilarious! The Magician and The Insta-Chick

I'm not a fan of the Tonight Show, but this is absolutely hilarious!  If you're in need of a giggle this morning, watch this video.  A magician is hired to work as a cashier of a liquor/convenience store and performs a few crazy tricks on some unsuspecting customers.

You are going to die laughing when customers fall for the dehydrated "Insta-Chick" - they're made in China. LMAO.
