Giant elephant face on Mars is proof of giant...
iheartchaos:
Scientists say that this giant elephant-like face spotted on Mars is from an ancient lava flow, but that’s just what they want you to think so you don’t start panicking about the idea of giant elephant people on Mars. But you probably should panic over giant Martian elephant people, because that’s the only logical explanation.

“Normally I don’t send or forward a lot of these, but even by my standards, it was a bit touching. I want all of my friends to feel what I felt when I read this. Hope it touches your...

You’d think Rich Santorum would be concerned with creating jobs or stopping the polar ice caps from melting and the ozone from disappearing or something. But no, he’s worried about how much porn you watch. And he’s really concerned that President Obama is not concerned with how much porn you watch. The following statement was posted to his website:

Rick Santorum Compares Entitlement Programs To... →
Rick Santorum thinks entitlement programs are a drug. He compares the government to a “guy with a dime bag.” Taking Santorum’s lead, here’s a list of programs that every American should “just say no” to. And remember, if you ever take advantage of any of these at any point in your lifetime, you’re a socialist.

Facebook wants you to think that brands are people so that you engage with brand content in the same way that you do with your friends and family. I totally understand on the surface the idea is to improve the quality of content. Advertising can be really annoying when it’s obvious.
But if we are to consider brands people, I think it’s important to consider the nature of the...

WatchHow can someone say that reading their kid’s text messages is perfectly acceptable and in the same breath say “If you’re gonna to treat you’re child like you don’t trust them, I believe that’s leading to trouble?”
The answer? I don’t know. It takes a very twisted and most likely Republican mind to say such things. But that’s exactly what Kathy...

The reluctant sex lube salesman →
Nick Bergus recently posted a link on Facebook to a 55-gallon drum of personal lubricant sold by Amazon — it’s only $1500! Then the post got sponsored and his family and friends started seeing it when they used Facebook, turning Bergus into a pitchman of sorts for an absurd amount of sex lube.
A week later, a friend posts a screen capture and tells me that my post has been showing...

Barbara Walters talks 'Vagina' with Joan Rivers......
Barbara: What do you say to people who say, ‘Joan Rivers, you have just done too much?’
Joan: “I say mind your business. And if it’s a man I always look at the wife, who is usually 11 years old with fake breasts.
Barbara: *Giggling* Okay. And what’s the most extreme kind of plastic surgery that you’ve heard of?
Joan: Oh, uh, vaginas now.
Barbara: What?
Joan: They’re tightening their vaginas. Well, vaginas can get loose—
Barbara: I see.
Joan: If you’ve had a couple of children, and, you know, you’re in an earthquake and you suction yourself suddenly to the floor — time for tightening
Barbara: I never thought I would ask you this question, Joan. Have you had your vagina tightened?
Joan: Why bother? There’s no hope, Barbara.”

Howard Fineman notes that during last night’s debate, only one of the four candidates, who collectively mentioned the President 14 times (not including “Obamacare”), referred to him as “President Obama” at all. If you guessed it was “Don’t I look presidential?” Mitt Romney, you would be wrong. It was former Sen. Rick Santorum, who used the title 3 out of the 5 times he mentioned him.
