Hilarious photos and video of things just not working out right:


Video of a semi-truck pulling away from a loading dock with the back open and all of the contents spilling everywhere.


Someone missing a windshield wiper has replaced it with a dish sponge. At least the abrasive side is 'up.'


A video of a cop tazing himself at a traffic stop.


"Hands on History" display with added sign: "Please do not touch"


Ice Cream flavor 'Viagra'


"Little Angel" Razor blades in adorable packaging with hearts and flowers


Someone who taped change on to a letter because they didn't have time to buy a stamp - plus "5 cents for your troubles"


The weather forecast that called for a low of 42 and a high of 5660

WARNING: AUDIO IS NSFW. A cop's car didn't quite make it into 'Park' and starts rolling away as the cop is talking with the person he pulled over. The cruiser's dashcam gets a perfect shot of the cops initial reaction as well as him chasing after the car, cursing, as the car gains speed. No one is hurt, fyi.

10 greatest misspelled tattoos. Here's a few:


"I'm Awsome"


"Tomarrow Never Knows"


"It's not the cards your delt in life: It's how you play them." Depicting burning face cards that also have missing jigsaw pieces from them.


I like the guy in Beijing with the tattoo: "Frunk" which he believes to mean "old soul with young spirit". I'd love to see the correct translations for all of the foreign language tattoos various white guys have on their backs or arms that supposedly mean "warrior" or "brother" or "fights with broken bottle".



Sadly, some tattoos depicting actual people don't always make the leap from attractive photo to attractive tattoo.

Is that girl in the barrell or behind the barrel? Is that kid in that car trunk or behind the car? Really pointless - mostly because I'm usually wrong and it infuriates me.

Never be caught off guard by 'that time of month' again! This site will keep track of up to 5 women and will email you to notify of upcoming PMS. Also has helpful tips for dealing with PMS. Women can also notify up to 5 people.
I love their explanation:

"For women, this is a great way to give people in your life a heads-up of when you might be feeling a bit irritable without having an awkward conversation."

You'll just have the awkward conversation of "Why did you email me to tell me you are PMS-ing?"

Create 1 to 10-paragraph complaint letters about any person or company you wish with just a few keystrokes. As long as you don't care if there are any specific or accurate complaints, the letter will achieve its main goal of besmirching your target's character. Here is a sample of a complaint about 'John Q. Public':

"Call me effete if you'd like; I will still do everything in my power to develop a rational-empirical base for dialogue about John's expostulations. Then, I will announce to the world that John finds reality too difficult to swallow. Or maybe it just gets lost between the sports and entertainment pages. In either case, John's epithets are based on hate. Hate, paternalism, and an intolerance of another viewpoint, another way of life. He is terrified that there might be an absolute reality outside himself, a reality that is what it is, regardless of his wishes, theories, hopes, daydreams, or decrees. Admittedly, John struts like a god on Mount Olympus, looking down on us mortals below. But that's because John decries or dismisses capitalism, technology, industrialization, and systems of government borne of Enlightenment ideas about the dignity and freedom of human beings. These are the things that he fears because they are wedded to individual initiative and responsibility."

As many 'fill-in-the-blank' name generators as there are out there, I still never get tired of them. Combining aspects of your first and last name, your home town, your favorite actor/actresses' last name as well as the name of a prescription medication, this site is quite effective in creating realistic-sounding Jedi names. Mine is 'HENJA STSAL of the planet Cialis'

Although this site has been around for many years, I have a feeling most people out there have still not seen nor heard of it. This is the personal site of a man (now in his early 50s) who enjoys sewing and wearing costumes of Peter Pan, other various 'pixies', and of the famous 'Blue Boy' painting. I'm having a tough time determining how seriously he takes himself in these costumes. I'm currently of the opinion that he, in a non-creepy way, loves the 'spirit' of Peter Pan and chooses this forum to express that love. But as much as I may try to view it from that angle, I still find his costumes (and particularly his poses in said costumes) more than a little disconcerting.
And in recent developments, it appears that in his travels to Renaissance Fairs and/or raves, he has found a woman who is every bit his match, and last year, this 'Peter Pan' married his very own 'Tinkerbell'. Photos are included.
Overall, I expect you and your friends will be saying 'That is just wrong' a lot as you look at this site.

This site is here to advise us if Abe Vigoda, most well known as 'Fish' from Barney Miller, is still alive or not (he still is). This particularly important info because Abe has twice been announced by the media as being dead (most notably People Magazine in '82).
