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 - - - - - - - - - - -

Things That Make You Go Hmmm...

So let's say the Apocalypse is nigh and you only have a spoon and lots of canned food.  Well, this short tutorial will help you open a can with a spoon.  Though, someone might want to tell Abe he's opened up a can of pears and not peaches.  Things that make you go hmmm...

Magical Fun 101: To Kiss or Not To Kiss

I absolutely love this video - being a huge fan of magic and all.  And Kissing!  Lol.

YouTube Vlogger, Stuart Edge has found a way to kiss his way onto a girl's lipsHe does this by using a permanent marker, a deck of cards and a willing participant - a girl, of course.  He asks her to sign her name on a card using a permanent marker.  He folds it up and tells her to hold it in her mouth using her teeth.  Stuart then proceeds to sign his card, fold it and tells her that, "there's a power in kissing".  He places his entire card in his mouth, and she does the same with her card in her mouth.  They lean in, kiss and the magic is revealed.

The Melting Spoon

How many of you mess around with your friends from time to time?  No, I'm not talking that kind of mess. Get your mind out of the gutter!  I'm talking with your friend's minds by playing a trick on them.  Geez, this is not coming out the way I want. ugh. LOL.

Okay, let's start over.  Have you ever played a mind-trick on someone by using a deck of cards, money, or other type of object?  Well, I have, but I've never tried this one.  Watch as this spoon (pictured) disintegrates as it is stirred in water.  How does it work?  The metal is made of pure 99.99% Gallium which melts at 86°F.  Pretty interesting, heh?  Well, you can actually do it yourself by going to DisappearingSpoons.com and buying a DIY kit.  Check it out.

Get More Out of Google

Hack College has come up with the following Infographic that I have posted on my blog on a permanent basis (located on the left sidebar).  It provides tips and tricks for students wishing to do online research.  

A recent study has found that 3 out of  students don't search Google efficiently, hell, I know people that could use help with Google.  One example, "Don't ask Google questions. Think about how an answer would be phrased, and search for that(ie, never search for 'What is the air speed velocity...')."

Yes, you have people who are Google masters, and know every Google trick in the book, but most of us don't, so this definitely does help.  Give it a try if you're doing a research paper, project, or just simply at home searching for useless information.  Enjoy.

What a Hot Mess: Magic Trick Gone Wrong

So the argument is...  some say it's fake and some say it's not.  Regardless, it looks pretty darn bad either way.  What a hot mess!

In the following video, two German boys, Sven and Michel are about to do a very popular trick that is performed by most magicians.  When they finally accomplish it, Sven accidentally jumps back, pushing Michel into an entertainment center behind them.  You can clearly see it fall on top of Michel as Sven runs away.

The question is... is it real?  Is he alive? My thing is, regardless if it's real or not, it still has to hurt.  People actually die from furniture falling on them.  The argument rages on, in the YouTube video's comment section.

Magical Fun 101: The Floating Cup

Okay, this guy Rahat is a genius.  Why he hasn't appeared on America's Got Talent is beyond me.  He first lit his wallet on fire, then he made a dollar bill float in mid-air, and now he's freaking people out, by making his coke levitate in front of shocked and stunned drive-thru workers.

The drive-thru worker bees are fucking hilarious!!! OMG - this was so good.  My favorite part was when Rahat tells one of the cashiers that when he was 11 years old he received a letter from Hogwarts, and she believed him. LMFAO. "Are you serious?" she asked him.

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 25 - The Multi-functional Jesse

On June 22nd, you saw Toby climb a tree without fear, and he climbed way, way up.  On July 28th, you saw Biscuit climb a mountain, and yes, without fear also.  

This time around, you will see Jesse doing just about everything you want him to do.  Want him to take the groceries in for you?  Jesse will do it.  Want him to fold laundry, and put it up for you?  Jesse will do it.  When you go to the pet store, he does his own shopping.  When you are too tired to make breakfast, he will make some toast for you, pull the sheets off your bed, and get your tea or coffee ready.  Jesse can do anything!

This video was too cute, I couldn't stop watching Jesse do all these amazing things.  I really hope Ryan's parents get a Jack Russell Terrier when their Pit Bull, Spirit goes to doggy heaven (or hell).
