Carey "Jesus" Price!

by Virginy
April 24th 2008

The Montreal city centre might have been ravaged by bloodthirsty hockey hooligans on Monday after the Montreal Canadians hockey team eliminated the Boston Bruins in a crushing victory, but there were also true Habs fans who knew just how to pay tribute to their very own Bleu Blanc Rouge in peace and harmony. This Ju Ming sculpture at the Victoria Square is now decorated with Carey “Jesus” Price's number 31 jersey. If you ever walk by, don't miss the chance to get your picture taken next to this over-sized goaltender, and don't forget to scream out loud “GO habs go!

The hidden face of the Police

By: Ben
April 10th 2008

Videos featuring Police officers being harsh, violent, marijuana-thieves, clumsy, lewd or even nice and sweet can be found all over the web, yet rarely do we see them having fun, dancing away like no-one is watching. Police officers are people like you and me, have you never sang your heart out, danced provocatively, pranced around like Bambi, or looked at yourself in the mirror saying “You talkin' to me?” trying to look menacing, when you thought no-one was watching?

Well this one was caught shaking it like Michael Jackson while being recorded on CCTV and everybody's talking about it because he was featured on Digg, check it out!

April Fool!

There are plenty of fish species living in our oceans, lakes, rivers, swamps and some of them have nothing to do with tuna or trout! If you're the kind of person who enjoys fish its prettiness rather than its taste or health virtues, maybe you'll change your mind after seeing this!

Real woman or sand sculpture?

Is that sexy Brazilian real or is she only a sand mirage? Don't get excited too quickly or you could regret it because it's not very sane to fancy a sand sculpture! And girls, don't panic, if that girl is real, well she lives far far away from here and won't steal your boyfriend.
For your pleasure!

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama serenade each other. What a very nice way to debate about issues. Republicans should be issuing a McCain Huckabee hoedown response anytime now.

Carmen Electra Has a Crush On You!

Tuesday 29th of January

Ever dreamt about dating Carmen Electra? Short of actually dating her, the next best thing is making your friends believe you do! This is exactly what this site is all about: CarmenHasACrushOnYou.Com

Scientology VS Anonymous

By Paul
Thursday 24th of January 2008

So the recent crazy Tom Cruise video and its censoring attempt by the Scientology Church has sparked a new controversy: Some of you might have seen this video calling for an epic “war of attrition”.

In Anon terms, a war of attrition will bring a maximum amount of lulz by temporarily taking down a few sites, sort of slowing down a few others and using guerilla warfare tactics such as ordering large amounts of taxis and pizzas to Scientology headquarters - which although quite funny might fall short of completely destroying the cult.

An interesting side story is also going on: this middle aged transgender woman (read crazy broad) who contacted Scotland Yard and the FBI - and then proceeded to vent her anger on youtube. She is angry because some British teen disagrees with her religious views. Caution, this is very angry and out of sync.

Tom Cruise is crazy again!

By Paul
Monday 21st of January 2008

Tom Cruise is making the news yet again. A Top Gun sequel do I hear you asking? Of course not - just another creepy video about the wonderful world of Scientology. As usual, the brave lawyers of the cult have done their best to censor (i.e. sue, intimidate and creep out) anyone broadcasting the video.

Fortunately, for our enjoyment, the complete interview is still available on Gawker. If you're up for some laughs, check out this hilarious spoof by Craig Ferguson, and this fake interview of Tom discussing constipation.

w00t: Merriam-Webster's Word of the Year 2007

By Paul
Wednesday 12 December 2007

1337 speak is now officially uncool enough to enter the mainstream dictionaries! Merriam-Webster chose w00t (yes, spelled with two zeros) as their word of the year. To my surprise, past year's winners included words such as "democracy" and "integrity" - this is what happens when the children take over the family business!

Facebook, as a verb, was the runner up this year, for those of you wondering how it can be used as a verb, just think of: "I facebook every day at work!"

I'm looking forward to see this kind of stuff on the mainstream media: w00t! 1337 sp33k ownz d00d!!!!!11
