The Peanuts as reimagined by Charles Bukowski... here.
It began as a mistake.

The first time that Charles Branaski met Lucy Van Pelt, she was holding a football.  He didn’t care for the game, baseball was his thing.  Still, she held out that old football.

“Just kick the fucking thing,” she said. 

“Listen, babe.  You just hold that thing steady and I’ll kick the shit out of it.”

She threw her head back and laughed.  She laughed long and hard and propped up the football.  Charlie took a running start and he reared back his leg and kicked as hard as he could.  Lucy was laughing too hard to hold the ball steady and it slipped out of her hand.  Charlie missed the ball and flew straight up in the air and landed flat on his back.

“AUUUGGGGHHH,” he said.

“You should have seen your face, Charlie Branaski,” she said.  Then she laughed twice as hard.

“Listen, you crazy bitch.  I think I broke my ass.  Jesus Christ!”

She helped him up.  “Look, I’m sorry about that.  You try it again and I’ll hold it real steady this time.”

“O.K., Lucy.  I’ll do it on more time, but that’s it.  You hold it this time, got it?”

“I promise,” she said.

He dusted himself off.  God o mighty, his ass ached!  He walked a little ways away and Lucy set up the old football again.  He took a deep breath and a running start.  He could see she was holding it tight.  He was really going to kick the shit out of that old football!  He threw his leg forward with all his might and Lucy yanked the football away just as he kicked at it.  He landed on his ass again.

“AUUUGGGGHHH,” he said again.

Lucy laughed and laughed and left with the football.  Charlie laid there and groaned.  Good grief, he thought.  What a cunt.  Read More...

Finally, someone has created a DIY LolCat tool for creating your own hilarious LolCat pics in the classic style.

LolCat images usually consist of a photo of a cat with a large caption characteristically formatted in an uppercase sans serif font such as Impact or Arial Black. The image is, on occasion, digitally edited for effect. The caption generally acts as a speech balloon encompassing a comment from the cat, or as a description of the depicted scene.

The caption is intentionally written with deviations from standard English spelling and syntax, featuring "strangely-conjugated verbs, but [a tendency] to converge to a new set of rules in spelling and grammar."These altered rules of English have been referred to as LolCat Speak or kitty pidgin.

I don't watch a lot of commercials thanks to TIVO, but these Nasonex commercials seem to be on a lot. They follow this strange current trend of using a 3D animated character to shill for a product. I find this one interesting because there have been major refinements since Bee 1.0 and his faux French accent... he is now Latin and played by Antonio Banderas! and the Pepe Le Pew references have been removed.

This is sad - a video arcade game is Japan, which is a virtual dog walker.

Grab Snoopy's leash and walk the pooch around a bit to earn points. Walk too fast you tire the plastic dog out. Too slow, the thing could get run over by a bus.

Bandai has come up with the solution for all of us plastic bubble popping fiends in the world. The PutiPuti the Infinite Bubble Wrap Toy. A bubble wrap simulator if you will. Unlimited popping action!

And this one does something real bubble wrap doesn’t. It will reward you with a new sound after 100 pops.

Something like a dog bark, a doorbell or even…wait for it….a fart! Read More...

Some people collect postal stamps; Exit Mundi collects scenarios of what could go wrong with the world. Sure, our planet could get hit by an asteroid. But hey, that's nothing. Did you know we could all be munched away by hungry molecules? Or that our physicists could unintentionally wipe us all out while tinkering with particles? `Oops, sorry...'

Exit Mundi isn't in it for doom preaching, but strictly for fun. It's a fascinating thought: if that &*%#-comet didn't wipe out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, we wouldn't be here pondering about apocalypses and armageddons in the first place. The dinosaurs roamed our planet millions of years longer than we did. If it wasn't for the comet, they still would.

That's why this site is a tribute to floods, quantum explosions and awfully big chunks of space rock falling out of the sky. If there's a lesson to be learnt, it should be that within every end looms the dawn of a new beginning.
Sounds good, doesn't it? Read More...

Jennifer Aniston is equal to almost 130 can of soda. A midsize car is equal to 253 spider monkeys. The weird converter converts the weight of one thing into the weight of another thing. absurd and quite useful.

from the site author: "Why? Well, while watching the Discovery Channel one day, listening to the narrators compare the size of a truck to blue whales, I thought that someone should make a converter to change other completely unrelated items. So I built one. And come on, who hasn't pondered how many poops a blue whale equals?" Read More...

BARBIE, the doll with everything, has followed in the footsteps of her real-life lookalikes and got herself a dog - complete with toy poop "biscuits".

Tanner the toy dog poops out her toy food, leaving Barbie to pick up the toy "biscuits" with her toy pooper scooper.

The new Mattel set, which goes on sale in Australia in the next few weeks, comes with magnetic dog biscuits, dog bone, chew toy, and of course a magnetic pooper scooper so that Barbie does not have to get her hands dirty.

Secrets Revealed During VH1's "I Love the '90s."

BY CLAIRE ZULKEY

- - - -

- Julia Roberts' heart in Pretty Woman was not actually made of gold. That doesn't happen in real life.
- U can't touch this, but really u can if u just ask nicely.
- Color Me Badd was really just a poor man's Boyz II Men
- Right Said Fred was not actually too sexy for his hat. He was just sexy enough.
- You know that tomato from the "Baby Got Back" video? It represented something.
- In the story that the movie Alive was based on, many people were actually Dead.
- Grammatically speaking, it's supposed to be "Salt and Pepper, featuring Spinderella."
- That Taco Bell dog is not actually originally from Mexico. He learned Spanish in high school.
- The '90s actually ended not more than six years ago. Read More...

"Why did the chicken crossed the road? Well apparently it wanted to become a $123.95 pony skin flip flop that was so bad I really wished it was a joke. Only true novelty fans should walk around with a chicken in between their toes! At first I thought I was seeing things but upon closer inspection I realised that Camper were serious about their 'Twins' which feature a chicken and a rooster. Described on the Zappos.com website as being 'asymmetric, with individual personalities, but inseperable'." Read More...
