Bad parenting can cause things like Micheal Myersism

As part of All Request Friday I was asked to review The Art and Science of Parenting.  So off I went to read it and give you my rave review.  So here I am back to rave.  I am going to do my review in bullet point format because everyone likes bullet points.

• The site is hosted at blogspot which means it has that annoying bar on the top.  But after you get past that, the site is a nice shade of purple.  Not too Easter Egg, not too Prince.  Just the right amount of Purple.
• The amount of crap on the right side is similar to the amount of crap on the right side of this site, so I have no complaints there.
• The first post was about the author having strep throat.  She said she couldn’t really post because of it.  But I assume she’s lying cause she doesn’t have strep fingers!  But the post took like, two seconds to read so yay.
• The next one is about the author going to the Walgreen’s clinic.  It was at this clinic that she confirmed that she had strep.  It was also at this moment that I realize the previous post was a Spoiler.  She is definitely a helpful writer, cause she includes links in her posts that people might actually use and need.  Unlike me, who links to this.
• The next post is real and she takes some list of important ‘how to raise your adolescent’ she grabbed from some other site and added her own twist to it.  I didn’t really read it because I don’t care, but she made her points in red which was helpful.  Then I remembered that I am really supposed to be reviewing it and really tried to read it but I still didn’t care.  At least you can buy candy and shit at Walgreen’s.  This was about KIDS.  Kids are like…midgets who can’t swear or drink.  But then I found this and it made me lol:

Changes in finances. This age range has finances…. Yeah – Mom, I need money. Mom, I need more money. Mom —- can I PPPLLLLEEEAAASSSSEEE have some money…

So that made me laugh cause I remember doing that.  And I remember my mom giving me a dollar and some pot and making me go to the dirty movie house all day while she pursued her serial killer career.  And then I realized that parenting really is a science and an art and decided to call my mom at the prison and see how she was doing.  So good job, website.  You really made me think!

Charlize Theron is from South Africa. She is also a little hotter than Nelson Mandela.

Who knew?  Well, I found out the other day when I was informed about the site Miss Moss.  The actual URL is: http://www.missmoss.co.za/.  Please note the funny extension, proving it is foreign.  Why do I care?  Because when I went there, there was a picture of some old hag right at the top (granted this was three minutes ago).  And, since I am a fan of old hags, I was immediately smitten.

It’s definitely a chick site.  Like, it has handbags and jewelry and other stuff like that.  But she sprinkles in hot chicks (or at least drawings of them) which kept me interested for way longer than usual.  Take special notice of: Dancing Behind My Eyelids.  It has arty paintings of chicks in their underwear.  And, to be honest, that’s the real reason that I like the site.

It is automatically not sexist if the hot chicks are paintings and they are posted by another chick and are mixed in with posts about how she needs to exercise.  So the fellas can see some pictures they would not ordinarily see, and the ladies can see…whatever the hell the rest of it is and not get too bogged down with a lot of words.

So, go look.  I also heard that the site is in the running for “Best Something Site in South Africa”.  Now, I am not trying to be mean, but that seems like it would be about as competitive as: “Best Something Site in Vermont”.  But hey, an award is an award.  And, I can’t diss it to much as the only award I ever won was Mr. Entrecard.  So, if you dig her site, then go vote for her in the categories “Best New Blog”, “Best Design Blog”, and “Best Personal Blog”.  And try not to puke from seeing the ugliest word ever (blog) 947,846,382 times on one page.  I am not sure what the prize is.  Maybe a copy of Lethal Weapon 2?  But whatever.  You can vote here: http://www.sablogawards.com/2009/

My husband and I were recently invited to a house party by some friends we met years ago at a swing club .  There, I learned that most of the guests never visit swing clubs, any more, and only swing at friend’s homes. 

Don’t go thinking I have a husband.  The quote above is from SWING!  Adventures in Swinging by Today’s Top Erotica Writers.  Why was I frequenting a site like this?  Because I found it by accident while searching for a site about how to get into competitive swinging.  But like, on a swing.  Unfortunately for me, there don’t seem to be any.  I am still the champ of the playground near my house (on a technicality, though since they won’t let in there anymore) but I got intrigued by all this swinging the site was talking about.

I do have to admit though that neither my inner or outer perv were really satisfied with the banter.  If I am going to read a dirty story Erotica, it better start with one of the following items:

• I knew that running out of gas in front of the sorority house was going to be the best thing that ever happened to me, but I never expected a SUPER NAKED ORGY WITH HUMPING!
• I was pretty nervous on my first day as a guard at the all female 18-24 year old sex addict shoplifter prison.
• She woke up before I was ready, so I had to go in barefoot instead of putting on the heels I had picked out.

NONE of the ones on this site are like that.  They are all like, thoughtful and shit.  And sort of topical.  I am sure if you go far enough, you will find the humpy stuff (she should have a tag called humpy stuff) but if you are just intrigued by people talkin’ about doin’ it with other people, then go look.

Oh, and check out this post in particular.  Sugasm – #155 Humpy Stuff!

Saturdays are for clicking links.  So click these and be amazed and/or amused.  Do as I say.  This instant.

Laser Portraits

I like it when people grab onto something nostalgic and hammer it right into the ground.  The folks at Laser Portraits did this.  I never had a laser portrait, nor do know why they are so funny.  But what the hell.  It means something to someone!

All my school pictures had plain backgrounds.  Now that I think more about it, I sort of got gypped.  Why couldn’t I have been on the deck of a pirate ship, or choking Hitler?  School pictures should be more fun.

Screw Lasers.  Let’s get some pics going that have Mount Olympus or make it look like the kid is addressing the UN.  That may be the closest little Todd ever gets to success.

NasMap

So I was on Twitter yesterday, Twitting, and I saw someone whoring this site called nasmap.  What does nasmap stand for?  Nothing as far as I can tell.  You sign up, you click on a piece of land (it seems like they based in on the old Sim City for Nintendo).  Then you upload a picture and then you wonder why you did all that.  I am still wondering.  They have no about us page.  No FAQ page, no text on the home page, no nothing.  So everyone go get a house near me or something I guess.  I don’t know why, but if they ever figure it out we will already be established and can shit on the n00bs.

Federal Budget Thingy

I don’t think I can give a more ringing endorsement of this link than was given by bustedstr8 from the Batcave when he said:  This is pretty cool. I just spent about an hour playing with this…that sounded a lot less loserish in my head.

I don’t agree with the politics behind it, but it is an interesting snapshot of how the federal budget is allocated.

More Links after the jump!  Twitter Whoring at it’s finest!

Well, back in the 90′s there was Hot or Not. Remember that? Fools would post their pictures (or someone else’s picture) and everyone else would waste hours rating them. Then there were 587 knockoffs of it, and finally we get to 2008 and someone has come up with a new twist.

Friendly Rank lets you rank pictures of people against…a different picture of the same person.  See, it’s a feel good wonderland!  No matter how ugly the person is, one pic will get chosen.  So Reggie Harelip and Mary Lou Acne can feel great that the PICTURE they thought was better was the one everyone picked.

I want to make sure everyone is clear that any picture that gets taken of you actually shows what you looked like when the picture was taken.  If someone had been looking at you at that time, they would have seen the same thing.  So any bad picture of your face is actually a picture of your bad face.

But, since there are only like, 7 people in friendly rank so far – anyone who signs up now can get in on the ground floor.  So come on you needy bastards, go get validated!  And if you see goatse vs. tub girl, that was me…
