Just admit it: “what do you read?” is a stupid question and Palins answer didn’t mean shit. Why would you answer that question? You know it’s just going to be picked apart and unfairly scrutinized, and all the sources you DONT name will be mentioned. So wtf? “I read the same shit you do” (paraphrase) is a perfectly legit answer.

Deep fried carp eaten alive
As if “Deep fried carp” didn’t sound delicious enough: a chef in Taiwan is serving it alive, presumably so diners can race to see if they can kill it through loss of its flesh due to their consumption or just good ole traditionally asphyxiation.
I scoured the youtube comments on these videos to find some “stupid ignorant asian assholes!” type rants and came up with nothin. interesting considering when I posted a video of me humanely (as quick as i possibly could, taking no relish in it) decapitating a rattle snake in my yard, I got over 100 “stupid ignorant American asshole” type comments. hmmm…
Oh wait, perfectly logical explanation for that right here: you can’t criticize non-white cultures:
It is not the first time that the Chinese have been criticised for their extreme eating habits.
Reports have claimed some restaurants offer monkey’s brains. Other dishes include rats, dogs, snakes, lizards and baby mice.
Last month Stephen Fry was criticised by the Chinese embassy after he singled out the Chinese culture as being the biggest threat to some endangered species.
“It is not very pleasant for us to single out a culture, but, if you care about lions and tigers and whales and sharks, it is the Far East and the way they eat, or the way they attempt to cure themselves, that seems to be the biggest threat,” he said.
A spokesman at the Chinese embassy responded: “I don’t think it is fair to accuse other cultures of having certain negative habits and traditions.
“We have our traditions, as the Spanish have bullfighting, and you, until recently, had foxhunting. We did not criticise you or the Spanish for this. Tiger bones for traditional medicine are now banned, to the suffering of the Chinese industry.”
Good point. eating an animal alive is exactly the same as killing it for sport. or something.
Nat Geo Photographer Meets Deadly Leopard Seal
Damn this photography crew from only having still shot cameras on this expedition. Video of this event would have been fascinating. You can relive the experience however as the photographer involved in this story retells what happened when a giant ass leopard seal swam up to him with its jaws wide open in an attack stance while he was collecting shots of the animal in Antarctica. what happened afterward is at least 3 levels of “whoah”.
As you can see in the picture below, these leopard seals are like small killer whales. this particular one was bigger than most says the photographer, but the size of the head and the sharp teeth alone were what made me make that comparison. He compares it to a bear, which is, I’m sure more accurate.
The creature seemed to think the eye of the camera was the photographers mouth, which made for some great photographs. In the video, Paul Nicklen describes his most amazing experience as a National Geographic photographer – coming face-to-face with one of the Arctic’s most vicious predators.
This story is so awesome that I recommend you think about it a little after watching the video and then watch it again.
Leave Miss California alone
About the whole Larry King weirdness: I don’t believe she just decided to take off her microphone and sit there by herself and thus I don’t think it even makes sense to call this a “meltdown”. A meltdown would be if she cracked under pressure or freaked out and couldnt take it anymore. Instead what happened was that Larry King was asked not to raise certain questions or even go near certain topics, which is why you GO on Larry King – he’s the show that does that. There aren’t a few shows left on cable news where you can just tell your side of the story without being challenged, probed or fact checked by the host and King is one of the last, if not THE last who will accept “no no areas” of questioning from his guests. There was a miscommunication somewhere and King went into that area. big deal. After that happens, Larry goes to the phones which evidently was the other thing that was agreed beforehand to not happen and Carrie appears to be told by, probably her handler/legal council, to take off her microphone. she does. It’s awkward cuz she doesn’t walk off the set, but rather waits for CNN to get their shit together and realize they made a mistake in breaking the terms and cut to commercial or something so they can hash it out and return for a normal ending. CNN didnt do that and ya, it looks weird, but what else was Carrie supposed to do, really?
SECOND: Here’s the deal on the “sex tape” that isnt a sex tape (you can’t make a solo sex tape. by definition, sex involves another person): if they were all for one guy, then it no diff than there only being one. if they were for more than one guy – even if its 2 and not 7 separate dudes – then its all out the window.
The best interview comes on Fox News’ RedEye, where host Greg Gutfeld jokingly, but not jokingly at all, lectures Carrie about sex tapes right off the bat.
OMFG!! I can’t believe how big Oprah’s gotten!
Horror of horrors… When they said this lady had her face ripped off by that chimpanzee, they meant she had her FACE. ripped, fkking, OFF. ug.. awful times a million.
Had to remove her eyes due to infection, no nose, no hands.and all because Travis the chimp felt threatened by a middle aged woman just standing there, so he naturally had to incapacitate her.
and to top it all off, Oprah has ballooned back up to previous overweightness.
Lysol and kids
Why the hell does Lysol include that it is a “Pediatrician recommended brand” on their commercials for toilet bowl cleaners containing no kids?
Depictions of Faceless white victims = Anti-Black Racism
Stuffed white people hanging from trees are the new black people getting lynched? Logic says what?
The mayor of Frederick, Md., says a controversial Halloween display featuring three faceless dummies hanging from a willow tree will remain at a city park, despite complaints from the NAACP.
Guy Djoken, president of Frederick County’s NAACP chapter, has called on Mayor Jeff Holtzinger to order parks officials to remove the display, which he calls “disturbing.”
“Something should be done right away,” Djoken told FoxNews.com. “When you look from a distance, it doesn’t look good. We should just remove it.”
Um, yea, dummy – hanging bodies are “disturbing” – that’s the point… Adding a racial element to it is stupid, but worse than that – it’s a sad commentary on the race-obsessed mindset some people are conditioned into having which keeps them from enjoying life like normal people. Hanging people from the neck by a rope as a way of execution and murder is something exclusively tied to blacks in these peoples minds, despite that method of death inducing historically being practiced on whites to a factor of…what do you think?… 3, 10, 20 times more?
Making matters worse for the victim-minded case is that the hanging dummies have white sacks for heads… No faces drawn on them – just blank white canvases for the viewer to fill with whatever their imagination conjures. How sad that for many, what they choose to fill that canvas with is hate-based.
Can’t we all just enjoy a holiday celebrating the horrors of death without relating it to arbitrarily assigned deaths of history?
NBC = Now with Boobs Channel
Just more proof that nudity doesn’t have to be censored if its not sexy. In this case its a woman with small breasts. I’ve seen other boobs on network tv in the form of news/human interest stories on breast feeding, on child birth in water and African tribes that go topless or even actresses playing such tribes. crazy.
What if Bush had done it?
I hate that this video is from Sean Hannity and apologize in advance for posting a clip from the 2nd biggest hack in cable news approvingly, but i didnt see these collections of points made in video anywhere else (only blogs and print) and its a decent point, unfortunately.
Time for your indoor sunbath
In Soviet Russia, light bathes you… Make-believe summer lasts for a minute or two as kindergarten children in sunless Lovozero bathe in ultraviolet light. Brief exposure to UV radiation provides the children with vitamin D, normally supplied by sunlight. The “sunshine vitamin” strengthens young bones.
