Stupidest Thing I've Ever Seen #1

This one comes from one of my own banner ads, on the lower right. (edit- it is now five hours since my original posting, and I've already seen the same ad on two other websites as well)



When I first saw this I did sort of a mental double-take. Is that... a 43 dollar bill?

A FOURTY-THREE DOLLAR BILL?!

The ad speaks for itself, it's just dumb.

Bizarre Observation #1

You can't say fart on TV.

But!

Fart noises as sound effects are okay.

Talking about farting is okay.

Characters actually farting is okay.

But the word itself?

Not okay.

What.

Little Things that Bug Me #1

Don't you hate it when people on the internet end their sentenses with two periods? Something like:

Yeah, but that's only if you actually know what you're talking about..

If there has just been the single period, the sentence would imply that they're accusing the person in question of not knowing what they're talking about.

Alternately, if there had been three, it would indicate that they're just not sure whether the person in question of not knowing what they're talking about.

It's the difference between being a dick, and being confused. The worst part is that there's no actual way to tell whether they meant . or ... unless you want to directly ask them. But then you look like a Grammar Nazi and an idiot.

Stupid Life Lesson you Only Learn the Hard Way #1

Never microwave a fleshlight. For that matter, never microwave any sex toy. I wouldn't recommend trying to directly heat them in any way, actually.

What feel 'pleasantly warm' to the hand is a totally different story to the genitals. One second you think "Hey, that's the perfect temperature!" And the next thing you know, you have first degree burns in a very bad place.

This is not one that I have experienced first hand, thank the gods.
