This has been going ’round the internets recently. It probably comes as no surprise that PETA has a blog. What would a modern activist group be if it didn’t have a platform where it could gloat about their last antics and wave a fist at the establishment?
But something seems to have gone amiss, at [...]

This viral video commercial for MSI’s super-thin laptops makes me wonder who the hell is in their advertising department. The idea is that their laptops are so thin and light that you can chuck them at your friend and he can catch it with his derriere.
Funny? In a very Jackass way. Fake? Of course [...]

You might be wondering what the headline means. The biggest tech-related mistake you’ll ever regret?
I’m not talking about throwing your computer out the window. That I can understand, even if it is pretty dumb (at least cash it in if you want to get rid of it…but I suppose that’s not as satisfying). A computer [...]

I normally don’t put up things from lolcats or failblog, but this was way too good to pass up. Apparently when someone sent in the text they wanted on their cake, they must have done it through some online form. And they probably did something to piss off the form, like put in a <tag>. [...]

In a classic case of WTF, a New York City couple (on a heroin habit, obviously) stole the very traffic light cameras that capture your mug when you zip through. Now you might thank them for several reasons. First, you might have gotten away with running a red light or two thanks to the absence [...]

Talk about embarrassing. NASA admitted earlier this week that they had accidentally erased the original video footage of the first lunar landing. How? By taping over it to make room for other information.
The search for the tapes has apparently been ongoing for about three years, in which thousands and thousands of videotapes were screened [...]

The New York Post found that the the City of New York is spending nearly $1 million on typewriters, the bulk of which are bound to the police department. What could they possibly be needing those ancient machines for, and why spend a million on it?
Although most of the NYPD’s arrest-report forms have been computerized, [...]

Who’s the bigger idiot in this situation? A 15-year-old Staten Island girl (why is it always 15 year old kids?) fell into an open manhole, and her mother is suing the city for leaving a manhole open. The thing is – it was completely her fault for not looking. Why? Because she was texting while [...]

The image you see above is a car… or what used to be a Saab 9-3 in Sweden. A massive fire engulfed it and turned it into a sad, charred skeleton. What caused the fire? An official cause hasn’t yet been identified, but investigators are very suspicious that an iPod did it. With no signs [...]

AT&T servers crashed during the release of the new Apple iPhone 3G S, delaying activation of new phones for several days. Apple had to apologize on behalf of AT&T, and issued $30 of iTunes credit to the unlucky bunch.
If you were one of the unlucky ones, keep an eye on your inbox for this [...]
