Idiots staple their tongues to board in an attempt to fit in
Wow this is just sad. What looks to be either a fraternity or sports hazing event, two guys stick out their tongues as a third guy staples them to a board on the table. A fourth member bleeding from the arm is then tasked with removing the staples. You know, in these kids' minds they probably feel like they just made that transition from boy to man but in reality they just lost every ounce of dignity they had left. And while stunts like this are usually intended to prove one's toughness, they often come off feeling a little....gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But in many of these hazing incidents we can't help but notice the homoerotic undertones, like this story where am Alpha Delta Omega fraternity member at Hartwick College was spanked with a wooden paddle by his peers. I don't know about you all, but when we were in college spanking another guy with a wooden paddle or messing around with boys' tongues was the last thing on our mind.

Chicago Board of Trade Trolls Occupy Chicago
With all the bitching & moaning and tension surrounding the occupy movements lately it's nice to see someone still has a sense of humor about it all. This week during the Occupy Chicago protests occurring right outside the Chicago Board of Trade, traders dropped McDonalds applications down to the protesters below.

You know, we almost feel a little bad for these occupy protesters, it's like making fun of the kid with down syndrome. Their eyes probably lit right up when they saw applications raining down on them like they had just won the lottery, only to find out they were for McDonalds. The sad reality though is that even a job like flipping burgers is a little too complicated for many of these people. Maybe we could create some sort of job training boot camp to get these folks ready for the real world. We'll call it "getting kicked out of your parents' basement".
