Blog is in the Details
I was reading an article in Details magazine about hot chicks who act crude and how unappealing it is. There is a line in the article about how it doesn't matter if a girl looks like Cameron Diaz or Eva Mendes when they fart or belch they become "about as attractive as . . . Whoopi Goldberg or that weird guy from Hollywood Squares who writes lame jokes for the Oscars telecast."
New Trilambs
I stumbled across some "new" Trilambs tracks today. If you click on the link you'll be able to download the demo version of It Wasn't Not Funny. The demo version has all of the unauthorized samples that were removed from the actual album. You can also download an EP called The Jacket Smasher EP. And lastly the extra tracks that were on the "official" version of the It Wasn't Not Funny album.

Spray on condoms?
This might be the dumbest thing ever, and this guy is spending a lot of time working on making it a reality, but it seems like something you would buy at a shitty store like Condom Kingdom, or maybe even Spencer's?
While most technologies advanced by leaps and bounds in recent decades, condom design has been relatively static for the last century or so. One visionary German scientist is working to change that. Jan Vinzenz Krause has spent recent years trying to make the world's most common prophylactic available in spray-on form. The technology's draw, according to Krause (pictured), is that conventional condoms often don't fit penises of varying sizes (also pictured, sort of).
Unlike its depiction in popular media, it's not a generic spray can that men haphazardly shoot towards their crotch. In reality, it works like a miniature car wash, employing a penis chamber lined with jets that distribute liquid latex. The entire process takes 10 seconds, with another 20 to 25 required for drying. But couples who don't want to miss a second of "Two and a Half Men" will be happy to hear that the inventor is hard at work decreasing that time to 10 seconds.
Although Krause planned to release his product this year, he hit roadblocks earlier this month with the patent. Since condoms are considered medical products, the approval methods are far more rigorous. So it's possible that Krause's prototype will never see mass production, and the world will be denied what he expected to be "a revolution in the condom market."

cake-tastrophy
Yeah, that is the best title i could come up with. Sorry.
At any rate, check out Cake Wrecks - When professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong. A hysterical look at the disasters that made it out the baker's door. Grammar seems to be a big problem, punctuation too. Color blindness is apparently a requirement in many bakeries. There are some masterpieces in there too, seriously "masterpieces" like they are awesome, not some tongue-in-cheek way of describing a disaster. Then there are some that are just down right creepy.
