Top 10 Horrific Slip And Falls, And Other Deaths

I doubt any of these have happened, but I thought I'd share some ways of dying that I think would be truly horrific.

1. Having a heart attack from the shock of being caught by your boss as you whack off in your cubicle at work. (Speaking of cubicles)

2. Getting out of your car with your seatbelt on, which causes you to plummet face first into the ground, cracking your skull.

3. You go to moon a pedestrian from the backseat of your friend's car, and your butt ends up hitting a passing street sign. Now, that may be bad, but what really seals the deal is that the impact of your butt hitting the pole causes your friend to lose control of the car, which goes into a fishtail, does a few 360s, and crashes into a telephone pole, killing everyone inside.

4. [Some men may fear this one] You go for a massage at your local parlour when the table you are laying on face down collapses and severs your penis, and while you're running around screaming in agony, shouting for help, you slip on some body oil that fell to the floor, smacking your head, which causes you to die.

5. You decide, for the first time in your life, you're going to do something naughty and you go to a porn peep show. As you run in quickly while nervously looking around, your feet skid on something slippery below you, making you lose balance, and you fall and knock yourself dead.

6. You fart in front of a date you really like, but are so embarrassed that you run away, but it's raining outside and an electrical wire is dangling in a nearby puddle of water, but you don't see it and you slip from the water and fall right into the electrical death trap.

7. You tell your grandpa the funniest joke you've ever told in your life, and he's laughing like mad, and you're laughing like mad, and all of a sudden his dentures go flying out of his mouth, and unfortunately find their way into yours, getting lodged in your throat, causing you to choke to death.

8. Similarly, you have a nasty habit of eating ABC gum (already been chewed), and you see a piece laying on the nightstand beside your friend's bed. You put it in your mouth, but it tastes funkier than usual and as you go to spit it out, but you begin choking on it and it kills you. Autopsy later determines that this piece of "gum" is actually a used condom.

9. You went to a wicked party the other night, and the next morning you're still drunk (ya, it was that good). You run your shower and step in, but oops, you sh*t in the shower. As you try to avoid the turd by jumping out of the shower without touching it, you slip and smash your head against the wall, rendering yourself lifeless.

10. [Wouldn't doubt if some women fear this] You happen to get a trigger happy security guard at the airport, and he shoots you down without thinking when your vibrator goes off in your suitcase.

Got any others? Dave D's always genius at these.

Dems VS. Reps: Political Pranking

Considering the ever-growing dichotomy between the US Democrats (lefties) and the Republicans (righties), I collaborated with MR.BIG (translation: he did most of the work while I slacked off, as usual) to come up with some pranks that may occur in the near future between the two parties.

I mean, the tension is getting to the point where there will be an inevitable apex after which both parties will just snap and get all giddy-like.

Well, that's one way tensions can break, anyhow.

So, here are some "funny pranks lefties could do on righties" and vice-versa "funny pranks righties could do on lefties".

1. Lefties may find it funny to make bumper stickers that read "I *heart* WAR for OIL" and put the stickers on righties' SUVs. --------- And, for righties "I *heart* WAR for OIL" could be put on the lefties' eco-weeny cars.

2. Another prank for lefties on righties: replace their newspaper cover with the headline "Recount Actually Shows Kerry Won Ohio!" with sub-headline "Bush conceeds and hands Kerry keys to White House".

3. In retaliation, righties may choose to send a fake article to lefties with the headline, "SHOCKER: Study Shows Meat Traces in Most Vegetarian Products!"

4. For a righty on a lefty, tell them Michael Moore will be presenting in town, but give them the address and time for the next local NRA meeting. Bonus points goes to those who get them to show up at an NRA "Bring a carcass and discuss how you killed it" Day.

5. For righty on a lefty - send them a fake military draft letter.

6. For a lefty to a righty retaliation - send them a fake invitation to a gay wedding.

7. For a righty on a lefty - convince all of lefty's friends to tell lefty that after a weekend at a 're-education' retreat, they are now solid Bush supporters and they now see the error of their ways (don't forget to put away the 'I *heart* Sheehan' t-shirts and Birkenstocks).

8. And, lefty to righty retaliation - convince righty that you won the lottery, but in good concience can't keep the money when so many poor people are suffering around the world. So, you've decided to donate the millions to worthy causes like the ACLU and planned parenthood... instead of selfishly keeping the money for yourself.

9. For a righty on a lefty - put a little script on their computer that forces their default home page to be always reset to "Right Wing News"

10. For a lefty to righty retaliation - fill their iPod with Dixie Chicks music and anti-war rantings with an occasional "YEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!" clip from Howard Dean spliced in.

10 People I Could Never Trust

Nukes and Candy had this intriguing top 10 list that I just couldn't ignore.

So, following suit, I have come up with my own top 10 profiles I just cannot trust.

1. The Morning Person: seriously, there's something fishy about waking up with the sun and being happy about it. What could possibly be so enjoyable about having that wretched morning sun burning out your retinas?

2. Consistently Tidy People: what are they trying to hide that they always need to be cleaning up? It's like a cover up. They must have some dirty little secrets to be obsessed with hiding the 'evidence'.

3. An obvious one, The Gossiper: I don't know how many times I've sat beside a friend while she was on the phone with another friend, gossiping about and backstabbing someone else. How could anyone possibly trust sharing any information with these types? Or, better question, why the heck do I visit with these people?

4. People who wear shorts in the winter: oh wait, I did that growing up. Nevermind.

5. The Cat Lady, or spinster with 40 pets: why? Because it makes me wonder what scheme they've got cooking to own so many pets. Are they training their cats to become ninja cats that will help their owner take over the world? I wonder.

6. I don't trust those who can't have a light-hearted laugh from time to time. Why be so serious all the time? What, are you too busy scheming to take over the world or something?

7. Mimes. 'Nough said.

8. Not funny, but I don't trust old men with hats who are on the road, driving. Similarly, old grannies who can't see over the steering wheel. Seriously, it's not funny. Scares the cr*p out of me.

9. People who will watch a movie with you - one that they've already seen - and they begin telling you what's going to happen next, etc. I avoid going to the movies with those people at all costs.

10. People who fart out loud in public and don't even appear embarrassed about it. Or, worse, those who point me out as the culprit when it wasn't me. Those jerks... and you know who you are!

Top 5 Stupid Taxation Excuses

Inspired, in part, by The Simpsons "Baggy pants tax".

1. Vacinity Tax: applied to home owners. You live close to a toll booth, which means you have easy access, and an unfair advantage, to toll booth payments and usage.

2. Non-Mafia Correlation Tax (in Canada, it's the non-hell's angel's correlation tax): applies to anyone who has no ties to organised crime. Reason being: I don't know about you, but I'm sure there's some sort of payoff between criminal and government.

3. Shirt-Wearing Tax: this one applies to all citizens since all citizens wear shirts (at least, we hope so). Reason: shirts are a privileged good and all privileged good owners should be taxed (hey, I didn't say these would be sensible taxes. They're about as sensible as the government itself).

4. Ugly Tax: much like a driver's license, citizens are required to get a head shot done once every 5 years, which will be sent to officials who assess and determine the individual's uglitude. Reason: nobody wants to look at that, so the tax money will be spent on sunglasses for the non-uglies.

5. Blogger Tax (which I wouldn't doubt if it happened one day): much like Ugly Tax, bloggers will be taxed merely because they are contributing to society's nonsense.

Top 10 Slogans For Great Clips Or Cr*ppy Hair Salons Like It

When it comes to low budget hair salons, many stylists have said that places like that hire those with the lowest test scores.

I think the haircuts speak for themselves.

Nonetheless, here's the top 10 possible slogans for these low budget salons:

1. Come for the bowl cut (off centered), stay for the obnoxious pleasantries.
2. No two haircuts alike!
3. Hey, at least our stylists passed the test.
4. Disappointing customers since 1982.
5. If you're bald, we'll still find a way to mess it up.
6. Aw come on, give us a chance.
7. Visit us today and get the ultra modern beehive look!
8. If you're a fan of the Three Stooges cuts, then you'll love us!
9. We use only the finest quality No Name products.
10. *NOW* with half the accidental hair fires!

Bonus: Home of the Mullet!

The Sex Trade Championships Top 10 List

While the World Cup comes to Germany this year, concern grows over the country's acceptance of prostitution.

For this reason alone, I believe it's only appropriate that I list some competative sex trade venues that could open up this year.

In the dance competition:
1. The tube steak boogie

In the cooking competition:
2. Hide the salami
3. smashing the pastry

In the music competition:
4. playing the upright organ
5. playing the skin flute

In the swimming competition:
6. muff diving
7. and everyone's favourite, lap snorkling

And, for some random venues:
8. the sheet beating competition
9. wood working
10. beaver feeding

Bonus: skiing down the old pink run.

But, perhaps these challenges would be better saved for an Australian World Cup since they have just made lingerie, dance lessons, and sex toys tax-deductible for prostitutes.

Geesh, if they brought this rule to Canada, I'd suddenly "become" a prostitute just to get some write-offs, lol.

Top 10 Celebs I Wouldn't Want To Be Stuck Beside On A Long Flight

Got this idea from Right Wing News, who has a great set of people (mostly political, or politically related) he wouldn't want to be stuck beside, and I thought I'd add my own list. Two of mine are similar to those rated in the poll taken on this topic.

1. Tom Cruise - I really wouldn't want to be stuck hearing him babble on about it wacko alien beliefs.

2. Courtney Love - I'd be too afraid that the heroin needle in her purse would jab me during take off.

3. Pamela Anderson - I fear the breasts would take up too much seating space, and I'd be stuck in a tight corner with my face plastered up against the window.

4. Paris Hilton - I'd be too concerned that my IQ would slip well below average just sitting beside her.

5. Ben Stiller - I'd be afraid his ape fur would get into my airline meal (ditto to Robin Williams, but at least he'd be funnier).

6. Sean "Puffy" Combs - or P. Diddy, or Poo Daddy, or whatever the h*ll he's calling himself today. I wouldn't want to sit beside him on a plane because I don't feel like getting shot.

7. David Hasselhoff - See # 3.

8. Julia Roberts - I'd be afraid she'd bite me by mistake with her horse teeth as she tries to chew on her salisbury steak.

9. Oprah Winfrey - I don't feel like being "healed" today.

10. Anna Nicole Smith - Ugh. Aw geesh. Ick. All around, just ew. I can imagine the plane ride smelling terribly (for some reason, I've just got this feeling that she's a smelly person), while I'm cramped up in the corner and my IQ lowers several points as her stupidity rubs off on me.

Bonus: Barbra Streisand - same as the breast idea only with her nose. I mean, this chick tries to get her nose into everything, despite how moronic she comes across.

Top 10 Reasons Liberals should become Conservatives

1) You'll be happier in life.

2) You'll be able to eat meat guilt free.

3) As liberals like to understand why people are the way they are, you'll understand what it is to be ______ + phobic (fill in the blank). After all, once you are a conservative, you are automatically labelled all of them.

4) You'll finally be able to shoot a gun at practice targets, which can be a lot of fun.

5) You can stop watching and pretending to enjoy to foreign films, which all suck donkey... uhh... never mind.

6) For men, you can stop this metrosexual touchy-feely 'in tune with feminine side' acting nonsense and finally act like a real man.

7) You don't have to walk around all day being offended by everything.

8) You own and drive car for fun instead of driving an underpowered weenie eco-car.

9) If you are non-white, you'll be able to prove that you can succeed in life without government hand-outs and lowered expectations in the form of affirmative action.

10) You can finally stop listening to that butt-ugly Cindy Sheehan crazy woman while eating Tofu turkey at dinner, and put away the puke bucket for good.

Top 10 Reasons Conservatives should become Liberals

1) You'll be able to encourage one of those peace-at-any-cost hippies to finally take a bath for the sake of humanity and all that is good and right.

2) You'll be able to disengage brain and logic for once and dream up of any conspiracy theory your mind can imagine. For example, Cheney is really some cyborg Dick sent by the future Halliburton World Government to enslave the masses by refining oil into a mind control drug.

3) You get to never work again and live off "the man" while spending your days protesting pointless things like "Save the Humpback Grey Mosquito"?.

4) You'll finally be able to visit the Daily KOS, which you've been curious to see lunacy but out of principle never visited.

5) You'll finally be able to watch movies staring actors and actresses you despise for opening their big yap in politics.

6) You'll finally be able to visit France without the scolding of your conservative peers.

7) You'll finally be in the majority, or as I would say 'Majnority', where you can say all your views are that of the majority including the mainstream press even if the majority of the population disagrees with you.

8) You don't have to waste time bathing.

9) For women, you can stop shaving under your armpits like the French.

10) You'll stop getting speeding tickets as the car you will have to drive will not have enough pep to speed in the first place.

Top 10 Ways To Know You're Addicted To Cybersex

After writing the previous Cybersex Anonymous article, I have decided to create a list of top 10 ways of knowing you're addicted to cybersex:

1. Cybersex is a problem when you get aroused everytime you walk through the electronic section of your favourite department store.

2. Cybersex is an issue when you have to switch to dating your left hand because your right hand got tired.

3. It's a problem when you start believing you are actually talking to who you think you're talking to, and that they are really blonde haired, blue eyed, athletic types.

4. It's a problem when you remember your Screen Name faster than your real name.

5. It's an issue when you shut off the monitor screen and feel as disheartened as if you'd just pulled the plug on a loved one.

6. Cybersex is a problem when you think you are bleary eyed from looking at the screen too long, but it's really that you've fogged up your monitor.

7. It's a problem if you call into work about your carpal tunnel syndrome, but spend the day off sitting at the computer typing your steamy thoughts to some stranger.

8. Cybersex is a problem if you prefer it over dating because you don't have to bathe, dress, or smell good.

9. Cybersex is a problem if you consider your computer virus to be an STD. Then, you go visit your doctor about the problem.

10. Cybersex is a problem if you have personal emergency room stories about you and the inappropriate place you put your mouse.

I'm Going Into The Marriage Vow Writing Business

But, for some reason, I don't think I'll get a lot of customers.

Now, although I've never had a marriage, I can only say this through the experiences of others.

1. Marriage is like a fingernail. If you nurture it and care for it, it can grow into a beautiful thing. But, if you bite at it, pull and tug on it, it will become ugly and very painful.

2. A spouse is like a toothpick. They can be there for you when you need them, but if you choose a defective one, you could get stabbed.

3. Getting married is like a bowel movement. They say it's good for you to do, but the process can be painful and sometimes it stinks.

4. Marriage is like a wind tunnel. Get trapped in one and you could get tossed around.

5. Marriage is like licking battery acid. 'Nuff said.

6. Marriage is like fertilizer. Sometimes it can be used to nurture and grow, and sometimes it's just the sh*ts.

7. Marriage is like an expensive dream item. If you want it bad enough, you'll do anything for it, but you'd better be willing to pay the price.

8. Marriage is like relaxing on a sunny beach. It can be rocky, you can get burned, and sometimes there's bits of poo hiding below the surface.

9. Marriage is like an airport terminal. Just about everyone has brought some baggage.

10. They say marriage is like wine - it gets better with age. I say, marriage is like wine - sometimes you just get a sour grape.

Bonus: I do like this one that I found online.

Marriage is like a box of chocolates. You have to squeeze a few bottoms to make sure you like what you are getting. - Anonymous

5. One moss tampon short of an environmental protest.

6. A few cages short of a puppy mill.

7. One exposed sex tape short of being famous.

8. A few third world workers short of a sweat shop.

9. One tossed cigarette short of a forest fire.

10. One nutty religious extremist short of a holy war.

Top 10 Net Hoaxes Of 2005

Aside from all those emails for enlargments, herbal viagra, discount meds, and porn freebies, Urban Legends and Folklore lists what they consider to be the top 10 Internet hoaxes of 2005.

Here is the list with links to the stories:

1. The Deadly Wave
2. Bill Gates Will Pay You for Forwarding This!!!
3. Photos of Hurricane Katrina's Approach
4. Telemarketers Want Your Cell Phone Number
5. Ciara's Sex-Change Operation
6. Pulled Over by a Fake Cop? Dial *677 for the Real Thing!

I hope nobody was duped by them.

I know I got a few of those in my email from friends, family member, and random spam. I particularly remember getting p*ssed off with a friend who kept forwarding that stupid #2 Bill Gates "will send you money" one.

All I could think of is if she's forwarding it to me that many times (numerous), and who knows to who else, imagine how much money she thinks she's making from it.

I couldn't fall for it because I figured, as if he'd depart with a couple of his bucks for lowly lil' ol' me.

Top 10 Weird Digital Music Creations To Come

With all the concoctions they're coming out with for listening to music, I thought I'd make a top ten list of possible new and weird iPod/MP3 ideas.

1. iPod undies: romance your mate with a tune. Play a little Barry White, oh baby!

2. iPod toilet seat: every time you sit down to take a dump, you won't have listen to your own plop, plop.

3. iPod docking station elevators: now you can take the lame cr*ppy elevator music with you when you leave.

4. Karioke mp3: oh gosh, I hope they don't already have that.

5. Vibrator/pocket rocket mp3: get funky with some default, cheesy porn flick music.

6. For the boys, mp3 Teddy Ruxpin and for the girls, iPod Cricket.

7. iPod casket: in case you get buried alive accidentally, you'll have something to listen to.

8. mp3 womb installation package: they say to nurture unborn children with music, so why not install the music directly.

9. mp3 doggy chew toys. So that you don't have to listen to that frickin' squeaking all the time.

10. Celebrity iPods: programmed to play one of your favourite celebrity's tunes. For example, you can get the Celine Dion, which will only play her cr*p, or you can enjoy the David Hasselhoff and listen to Ooga-Chaka all day.

Got any ideas of your own?

*Save Gas, Revisited

Today is my final installment of the Best of Sam. You know, I've gotta get over my hangover, too, eh. I hope everyone had a Happy New Year like I did and that the rest of the year goes great for everyone.

Heed these fuel saving tips from msn.com as tough times approach:

1. Keep your vehicle well maintained

2. Accelerate gradually, drive with care, and anticipate stops

3. Don't be idle too long at drive thrus, schools

4. The air conditioner is a burden that uses fuel, roll down windows

5. Plan your errands into one trip

6. Weather conditions have a role, too, when driving into headwinds

7. Attempt uphill climbs as little as possible;likewise gravel roads

8. Of course, public transportation is a wise choice


Those were msn's suggestions, now here are my suggestions:

1. Buy SUV's and kingcab trucks

2. Make sure you only leave work during peak rush hour times

3. Best way to keep the car warm for you in the morning is to leave it running all night.

4. Drive to the corner store that's within a mere walking distance; why burden your feet with that effort?

5. Soup up your car and challenge everyone you see at the stop signs to a street race.

6. Use only high octane gasoline when you're at the pumps, regardless of whether your car needs it or not.

7. Move as far a distance as you can from work so that you will have a long and enjoyable commute.

8. Practise doing 360 degree donuts in parking lots for hours at a time.

BONUS: I don't care if you have the option of carpooling with coworkers - DON'T - they'll just be annoying passengers.

And remember, gasoline makes a great starter fluid for campfires.

My Canadian-ness Article For Today: Wednesday Edition

Another great find at this site, although I'd change it to reasons to live in the Vancouver area because it certainly does not apply to the rest of BC:

TOP 10 REASONS TO LIVE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA:

1. You don't have to worry if it is going to rain - it's already raining
2. Vancouver: 1.5 million people and two bridges to the 'burbs
3. The local hero is a pot-smoking snowboarder
4. The local wine doesn't taste like malt vinegar
5. Your $400,000 Vancouver home is 5 hours from downtown
6. You have a university with a nude beach
7. You can throw a rock and hit three Starbucks locations
8. You have a fleet of old rusted ships that you got for free from China
9. There's always some sort of forest protest going on somewhere
10. People here never get a tan - they rust

Apparently, they are planning on fixing that 2 BRIDGES issue, but only because the 2010 Olympic Games are coming here. Nice, eh? They can't do it for the people who live here, but they can make it look good for the rest of the world when it comes time.

What are they going to do, take the extra bridges down once the games are over?

Bad Time For Criminals

Contributed by Lost In Lima Ohio

This doesn't appear to be the best of times for criminals. It's not just that they are making it into the news, it is the way they are going about doing it. I've decided to bring you a run down on the latest stunts which have made headlines.

My Own Top Ten Eight List Of Bad Criminal Stunts

10. Going out, partying a bit too much and due to being overwhelmingly drunk- mistaking the police car for a taxi.

9. On the run from police, criminal decides to hide in Church. Only to pick a church holding mass for the next shift of police officers.

8. Taking photos of your crime spree, and leaving the photos on the stolen camera. The camera was returned after the conviction, seeing as the criminals returned to the home to steal a computer cord which they had forgotten. This time, they where caught. *Next time, just buy a new cord.

I know Sam already mentioned this one- but I can't help myself:

7.. A man in Florida decided to go for a nice little crime spree of breaking windows while in the nude. When he began accosting women, the police where called. They requested him to stop- but he refused. The police then shot him with a Taser gun. All may have ended just fine, but the man was naked and "moving around a lot" and the officer didn't have the best of aim. Reports indicate the suspect was hit, in a "tender spot".

All I am left to say is, ouch.

6. Don't hide the body in a suitcase and leave the address label with your brothers info on, on the suitcase.

5. Don't use your boyfriends cell phone to call in a bomb threat to your employer. One flight attendant did in order to get the day off, my guess is she'll be having a lot of time off- since the call was traced back to her boyfriend.

4. Where's not the best place to hide while being chased by police canines? This poor criminal evidently thought it would be a dog house.

3. One should not try to outrun police when riding on the lawnmower they have just stolen. Police have cars, they go faster.

I know there should really be two more to this list. But that is the great thing about being the writer... I can stop when I want.

Top 10 Signs You're A Raving PETA Member

1. You have a stockpile collection of injection needles, but you don't do drugs and you don't have diabetes, and for some reason all the cats and dogs in the neighbourhood go missing.

2. You throw paint on your pet and yell out, "fur is murder!"

3. You refuse to collect ABBA albums because you think the letters ABBA has something to do with the beef quality grading system.

4. The list of malnutrition-related diseases you have is longer than the piece of paper you have to write it on.

5. You're puzzled why nobody shows up to eat your Thanksgiving Day Tofurky, Tofu Turkey, turfooky, poo tookey, or whatever the h*ll you want to call it.

6. You refuse to fill up your car with gasoline because it's made from dead dinosaurs.

7. You know every brand of soy milk on the market by heart and you gloat about it to everyone you encounter.

8. You fall to the ground and ball up in the fetal position every time you try to walk by the Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey circus.

9. You have acute grassotophobia: the fear of crushing grasshoppers as you prance barefoot in the park.

10.You cage your kids nightly as training for their future role as PETA protesters.


PS - Committees of Correspondence has some gobble gobble news with some hilarious animations.

Top 10 Complaints Canadians Have About Americans

Now I don't want my fellow Canadians or American friends to get peeved with me, so I want to be very clear that

THIS IS JUST A JOKE

Anyhow, our complaints about the US:

1. They don't recognise the word "toque" - the Canadian knitted winter hat.

2. They steal all our good actors and comedians and leave us with Elvira Kurt and other cr*ptacular talk show hosts like Mike Bullard.

3. Their overall disinterest or lack of knowledge for the Quebec snowman mascot, Bonhomme (ok, I'll admit it, most of Canada isn't that interested in it, either).

4. They didn't sink Celine Dion when they had the chance in Las Vegas. Now we're stuck with her again. Near, far, wherever you are, you should try to get rid of Celine.

5. The Walmart Invasion - 'nuff said.

6. They mock our currency: $1 coins with loons on them, beaver on our nickels, "it looks like Monopoly money", etc.

7. They don't have enough donut shops for us when we visit them.

8. Their flag is the stars and stripes; ours is a leaf (kidding, I love our flag, the only problem is our "leaf" can be destroyed by a common aphid).

9. They won't stand on a deserted road in the rain waiting for the "Walk" signal. In other words, they are not excessively polite or "law-abiding" in a way that makes you almost want to barf, like us.

And the worst, most foul thing about them Americans...

10. They don't have to switch from "heat" to "a/c" in their car in the same day like we do.

Top Ten Reasons Men Are Happier Than Women

Contributed by Tony from Sand in the Gears.

1. We don't have to sleep in the wet spot.

2. We have the affection of the far more lovely and talented sex.

3. Very little is expected of us, so when we do something right, it's usually a welcome surprise.

4. Vasectomies are far more expensive than the pill.

5. Childbirth.

6. Peeing in the snow. Don't judge if you've never done it; it's really quite exhilirating.

7. Having an orgasm is not a complex ritual requiring the right mood and a precise alignment of moon and stars.

8. Sagging is not as much of a threat to our emotional well-being.

9. High heels, panty hose, make-up, bras.

10. With the creative use of commas we can limit a 10-item list to ten items.

Note from Mr. Big: HA - In your face Samantha! First, intelligently fisked and now outdone, as us men have our own superior top 10 reasons!

Top 10 Reasons Why Women Are Happier

Here is a list of the top 10 reasons why women are happier than men, or at least, why they should be.

1. the kitchen's all ours

2. we get control of the wedding plans and we get to look the best at our wedding

3. chocolate makes up for orgasms that men rarely give us

4. reading men is like reading an open book, whereas men can never understand women

5. we can get into a popular bar much easier than men; we just show some cleavage

6. we don't fart, we fluff

7. we know how to colour coordinate

8. we can build a man's ego just by asking him to open a jar

9. we get doors opened for us

10. we're not as hairy and we don't have to shave our faces

11. we aren't too chicken to ask for directions

12. scratching ourselves is not an hourly event in our lives

13. we can do two things at once: comprehend what someone tells us while we're watching tv, or pack a baby on our hips with a toddler holding our other hand and push a shopping cart while checking our grocery list and getting the cheapest, best products off the shelf.

Okay, so there were more than 10 reasons. I guess that's because it's just so darn good to be a woman.


Update: Sam you've been Fisked :P (HA-Mr. Big)

Harriet Miers Senate Questionaire

Jason Coleman.com brings us the Harriet Miers Senate Questionnaire, whom incidentally was the very first commenter ever to the very first post on this blog. Err, well, Jason Coleman is the first commenter, not Harriet Miers.

Being a Canadian with no business in US politics, I thought I’d provide an alternate questionnaire that I think is vital for Harriet Miers to answer:


1. What is your constitutional position on my proposed law to banish annoying moonbat celebrities to the planet Venus - since that’s the planet of love and we all know how much they love themselves?

2. Do you believe the US constitution allows for a law requiring protesters to take a bath once and a while?

3. Do you believe the right to privacy includes the right for citizens to eat tasty animals in the privacy of our homes? Do you believe the constitution extends human rights to animals, like some nut-ball quacks out there believe?

4. Using only a 5 gallon jug, a 3 gallon jug, and wate
