Just one more example of a dog being wonderful, useful, and just plain awesome.

Really RaceTrac? That’s nasty…

test — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 17:10:55 +0000

A friend of mine just posted this rather disturbing image on her Facebook with the following description:

Ok RaceTrac really? This could kill someone! All three stickers stuck one top of each other when we got it. This is disgusting!

Disgusting indeed!

The picture was followed by this unfortunately true statement:

It never goes bad, they just ‘have’ to put it on there!

I imagine this is one of those food products that you could put on your mantel for a year and would it look about the same a year from now as the day you bought it.

There was also this comment on the picture:

you should send this to the corporate office, I bet you get free gas for life!

To which I respond: you could also eat it…and I’m sure you’d have free gas for a while too. (Ba-dum-ching!)

Anyway, gross RaceTrac. But perhaps more importantly…WHY IS ANYONE BUYING “SOUTHERN STYLE CHICKEN BISCUITS” FROM A GAS STATION???

Can someone explain how “Hershey’s + Calcium” has 0% calcium?

John Pozadzides, the one man behind One Man’s Blog, recently posed the question above in reference to the picture below.

I can’t explain it. Can you?

Update: It appears that there is an explanation…or so they say.

Bah Humbug.

S.T.E.M Shortage (Infographic)

As the demand for STEM jobs increase in the US, why are so many students choosing to opt out of this field? Because it’s too hard! Perhaps it’s time to re-examine how we teach it.

Florence and The Machinist

jerod — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 18:23:45 +0000

A friend of mine recently posted on Facebook describing his thoughts on the Florence and the Machine performance on SNL. He wasn’t impressed. Frankly, neither was I; so I responded.

And, of course, I couldn’t pass up a perfectly good Photoshopping opportunity:

The dog days may be over, but the days of lame puns and poor Florence being dogged for her often annoying over-singing are not.

These frightened picture hooks can sense their impending doom.

Gordon Keith jac(lyn)s off

jerod — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 13:33:35 +0000

If you live in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and are not a tool, then you surely listen to 1310 The Ticket. And if you listen to 1310 The Ticket then you know of Gordon Keith, one of the hosts of The Musers in the morning.

Some people seem to be constantly annoyed by Gordo (George Dunham comes to mind), but I find him to be consistently hilarious.

This morning he delivered a simple yet certifiably laugh-out-loud line while running through today’s birthdays. I will share it with you below in the form of a quick photo story.
