Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me.

Kinetic Jewelry

Metalsmith and Jewelry Maker, Dukno Yoon, has found an artsy way to keep us entertained...  Kinetic Jewelry.   He has an extensive resume, and his work is absolutely astounding.  Feel free to check out his costume designs and other creations on his website at http://www.duknoyoon.com/index.html 

Here are a few pics of the jewelry. Don't you think these would be perfect for those long lectures, church services or boring meetings at work? Lol.


 
 
 
 

Movies to Watch: Les Misérables

I'm so excited about next Friday's "Must Watch" musical release of Rock of Ages.  I know, I know... I said back in March that I have never been more excited about a movie musical release than this movie, but I think I may have been a little presumptuous.  

Last week Ryan showed me the trailer for a musical coming out this Christmas, and I can honestly say, I have never been more excited about a movie musical release than "Les Misérables".  When I saw the trailer I about died.  I swear, you'd think I was gay. Lol.

It stars an array of actors - Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Sacha Baron Cohen, Amanda Seyfried, Russell Crowe, and many many others.  It's absolutely ridiculous!  In a good way of course. :-)

Check it out... and don't cry at the same time...

Cyanide and Happiness: Photos

This is just not right...

What the Contents of Your Fridge Say About You

I absolutely loved these info-graphics, because ironically enough, it makes some sense. LOL.  According to the description, "You may not realize it, but your fridge is a gateway to all the various nuances of your soul. Find your fridge description on the following chart to come to terms with the reality of your inner being."

So which fridge are you?  The All Natural? The Bad Ass? The Jar Head?  LOL. Check them all out, they're pretty funny.

RuStorm on X-Men????

Since we're on subject of comic book characters...

"There is a great heated and fun discussion going on right now on the Comic Book Resources Forum about this question: Should RuPaul replace Halle Berry as Storm in the next X-Men movie? To me, it’s as clear as a lucite hooker heel – hells to the yes. Join in, won’t you?"

The Avengers: How It Should Have Ended

So let's start off our Saturday morning with a good laugh and how The Avengers should have ended. From the same fabulous guys who brought you Jurassic park: How It Should Have Ended, Return Of The Jedi: How It Should Have Ended, Super Cafe - The Super Social Network, and Super Cafe - Bat Phone, comes this hilarious re-telling of the blockbuster summer movie, The Avengers: How It Should Have Ended
Absolutely hilarious! If you have not seen the movie, and plan to, then I don't recommend watching this. If you have seen the movie, and you didn't stay in your seat long enough for the funny ending at the end of the credits, you probably wouldn't get it either. And I also recommend watching the two short vids on the Super Cafe, The Super Social Network and Bat Phone provided if you haven't seen them yet. I provided the links /\/\/\ up there.
 

Have a look and Happy Saturday!

The Woes of Being a Bad Parent - Tossing Toddler

You all know me by now, and if you don't, you'll learn after a while.  I'm always open to placing controversial subjects on my blog, and this one is no different. 

While most may agree with me, I have those who don't.  And that is okay, because that is what being open-minded and honest about your opinions is all about.  If we didn't have our disagreements, this would be a very dull world.

So here's little boy blue, having a wonderful, wonderful time.  While he seems to be enjoying himself flying through the air like Superman, I'm go to say this is very, very dangerous game, wouldn't you agree?  Ahhh, The Woes of Being a Bad Parent


But is he necessarily being a bad parent? Sure, he could have made the mistake of tossing the baby on the floor (on his head) and causing serious bodily injury, but does that necessarily make him a bad parent?

MIT's Freaky Non-Stick Coating Keeps Ketchup & Mayonaise Flowing

So how many of you have pounded the hell out of a ketchup bottle trying to get the darn thing to pour out?  Or found yourself at the end of a rope, trying to get the remaining remnants from a mayonaise bottle? 

Well, thanks to some PhD students at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), an invention like no other has been created, or better yet, a non-toxic substance.


Meet LiquiGlide, a "super slippery" coating made up of nontoxic materials that can be applied to all sorts of food packaging--though ketchup and mayonnaise bottles might just be the substance’s first targets.

Here are the before and after videos...

Check out what happens when you pour ketchup out of a LiquiGlide-coated bottle:


For point of reference, here’s ketchup coming out of a regular bottle. Keep in mind, this is the exact same ketchup. It’s so time-consuming and wasteful.



Here’s mayo coming out of the coated bottle:



As opposed to this:


Keep in mind, these students worked in collaboration with the FDA to make sure they could use materials the FDA had previously approved.  According to Dave Smith, one of the PhD candidates, "I can’t say what they are, but we’ve patented the hell out of it."

Can you smell instant millionaires?

My "flesh" Is Intrigued By The Idea of Killing Homosexuals and Adulterers!

Lovely. Just Lovely.

Curtis Knapp
Oh, I just love Baptist churches!  Don't you?  Hell, when all they do is condemn homosexuality and force God down our throats, what makes them think we want to worship with them?  Seriously?  Don't they think we love God just as much, if not, more than all of them!!!!

Two more Baptist pastors have come out in support of killing your brother, sister, mother, father, uncle, aunt, grandmother, grandfather, cousins, friends, co-workers, the list goes on.  All because... well... a straight couple bore a gay child.

Dennis Leatherman
Two pastors, Curtis Knapp of the New Hope Baptist Church in Seneca, Kansas, and Dennis Leatherman, pastor at the Mountain Lake Baptist Church in Oakland, Md spoke from the pulpit at two of their recent Sunday sermons.  While Knapp suggested that the government should put gay people to death, Leatherman said that his “flesh” is intrigued by the idea of killing homosexuals.

You can read more about this ridiculous nonsense here and even listen to clips of their sermons.

Voting Republican!


It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 56 - Why Lambs Should Never Be An Indoor Pet

So yeah... Lambs should never be indoor pets. What do you think?  LOL. 

Well, they are kinda cute, bumping heads, jumping over couches and what not.  I guess if one can have a piggy as a pet, why not a lamb; or two or three?

Enjoy the video... It's Purely Animal.

Tetris: The Movie

So if Battleship got its own movie, why not Tetris, right? LOL.  Loved it.  Good job Warialasky.

Are People Really This Stupid? Issue No. 26 - Crazy Church Lady

One of the most read series on my blog gets another great story... And it's all about this brilliant woman right here... Stacey Pritchard.
Remember my post from last Tuesday, the one about the Baptist pastor who told his congregation that all gays, including Ryan and myself, should be detained in electrified camps until we're all dead?  

Well the stupidity didn't end there.  Anderson Cooper had a member of the church on his show, AC360, who states that the Pastor's words were taken out of context.  And when Anderson grills her with questions, she continues with her stupidity by agreeing that those who commit adultery should also be put to death.  And she does this throughout the interview, rolling her eyes; stating that everyone is taking the words out of context.  

Honestly, Christians love using the phrase, no really, they do.  You see, I'm a Christian and this went on in every church I attended.  It's true we would always tell non-Christians that they are taking the "true words" out of context.

Check out the video, it's great!  Go Anderson! Love ya!

What a Hot Fucking Mess! Real-Life Hannibal Lecter Shot Dead Over The Weekend

I'm sorry, I tried to refrain from using inappropriate language, but this is just absolutely horrendous! 

Yes, it sounds like a story meant only for the theater, but it's true.  A man's face was eaten by another human being in what is called one of the most bizarre stories in a very long time. 80 percent of the victim's face was completely gone, including his nose and eyeballs.  The victim is currently in a local hospital in Miami.  Honestly, I don't know if I would want to be alive after this.
According to the Courthouse News Service "A naked man eating another man's face "growled like a wild animal" before he was shot dead by Miami police, a police officer said, telling Courthouse News, "I think this is the craziest thing anyone's ever heard of." The dead man, possibly in the throes of a drug-induced psychosis, allegedly ignored the officers demand to stop eating the other man.
The story broke late last week and has been making the rounds over Facebook like wildfire. I failed to mention it until now, because I was enjoying my Memorial Day weekend.

Sad thing is, I think this will be made into a movie within a year or so.

Quoted: Channing Tatum on Who Will See His Movie - Women and Gays

People say that women and the gay community will go see [Magic Mike] – knock on wood – but I know straight guys won’t be like, ‘Yo, what’s up man – you wanna go see the stripping movie after the game tonight?’ I doubt they’ll have the balls to see it. What’s funny is that the girls don’t ask me questions about my stripping days, but straight guys want to know everything. It’s that fantasy element. It’s probably why a lot of females on Halloween are the whorey version of a ketchup bottle, or slutty nurse, which I love and respect – it’s liberating.

How Many Weeks Do You Get For Paid Maternity Leave?

I found this article rather fascinating.  And it would probably be more fascinating for pregnant women and/or expecting fathers.

There are exactly three countries on Earth that do not provide guarantees for paid maternity leave. Papua New Guinea and Swaziland are two of them. Care to guess the third?
Courtesy of Think Progress Health: Out of 178 nations, the U.S. is one of three that does not offer paid maternity leave benefits, let alone paid leave for fathers, which more than 50 of these nations offer. Here’s how the U.S. stacks up to 14 other countries: 
In comparison, Canada and Norway offer generous benefits that can be shared between the father and mother, France offers about four months, and even Mexico and Pakistan are among the nations offer 12 weeks paid leave for mothers.

American women are offered 12 weeks of unpaid leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act, which exempts companies with fewer than 50 paid employees, but in 2011, only 11 percent of private sector workers and 17 percent of public workers reported that they had access to paid maternity leave through their employer. And for first-time mothers, only about half can take paid leave when they give birth. Read More...

Movies to Watch - The Great Gatsby

Hmmm. Who knows? I might actually watch it.  I found the idea of remaking such a great classic rather repulsive, but after watching the trailer to The Great Gatsby, I may find myself liking it.  It is a Baz Lurhmann movie after all.  The movie doesn't come out till Christmas, but the trailer should satisfy your craving for now.  Maybe Leonardo DiCaprio will win his damn Oscar for once.



From IMDB: Nick Carraway, a Midwesterner now living on Long Island, finds himself fascinated by the mysterious past and lavish lifestyle of his neighbor, Jay Gatsby. He is drawn into Gatsby's circle, becoming a witness to obsession and tragedy.

Quoted - Republican Colin Powell on Endorsing Gay Marriage

I have no problem with it, and it was the Congress that imposed Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, though it was certainly my position and my recommen-dation to get us out of an even worse outcome that could have occurred, as you’ll recall. But as I’ve thought about gay marriage, I know a lot of friends who are individually gay but are in partnerships with loved ones, and they are as stable a family as my family is, and they raise children. And so I don’t see any reason not to say that they should be able to get married.– former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsing gay marriage during an interview today with Wolf Blitzer on The Situation Room.
