humans - "too repugnant"
did you know...?
"According to anthropologist Louis Leakey, [foul body odor] might be responsible for early man's survival. Leakey's theory claims that most predators avoided feating on humans because our body odor was 'too repugnant.'"

monday? again?
haven't we done monday to death yet? can't we try something new?
stupid cyclic calendar...
anyway...
last week was a little effed up what with the stupid useless holiday smack in the middle of the week... it messed up my whole schedule! can you believe the nerve of canada day? falling on a wednesday... doesn't even have the decency to give us a well-deserved long weekend! so yeah, instead of attempting to work vigilantly and without distraction for 4 days in a row, i didn't even feign working for those two 2-day work packets. and i think that's pretty much what everyone else did too so i don't feel too bad.
so maybe this week i'll be better with my procrastination efforts than in previous week. i know i've been slacking. but i reiterate - all this not being able to see my blog is putting a serious downer on things. and the not being able to put up pictures? slowing killing me inside.
le sigh...

hard hitting journalism
"6 public makeout spots in the city"
1. Family washrooms at Pearson Airport
Be it a long kiss goodbye or a welcome-back embrace, these private, yet spacious restrooms are a popular spot for travellers in the mood for romance, airport security guards say.
2. The Rogers Centre Renaissance Hotel
The best of both worlds for the uncompromising sports fan: Watch players strike out as you don’t, an activity first noticed through the windows overlooking the field within a year of the dome opening in 1989.
3. The CN Tower
The half-a-kilometre-high club. A call to the CN Tower about the frequency of unusually amorous behaviour was not returned, leading us to conclude it’s less rare than one might assume.
4. Ashbridge’s Bay
Lifeguard stands along the boardwalk provide a good view of the lake - and cover for late-night rompers, who avoid getting sand in their shorts but who have been spotted by early risers.
5. GO train
Eagle-eye commuters report that the top floor two-seater tucked in the corner is a popular spot for lovers because it is the only pair of seats that do not directly face another pair. GO train, indeed.
6. The ROM’s “Bat Cave”
Bruce Wayne, eat your heart out. The creatures in this cave have seen more action than Batman, museum officials report. “The bat cave definitely has a reputation as a hot spot - no pun intended,” said museum spokeswoman Anne Marie Todaro.
i WAS going to expand further on the 'hard hitting journalism' title but one of the commenters on this story beat me to it... much more eloquently than i would ever be able to do on a tuesday!

Perhaps its my age, but here goes.... "I feel like this article has changed my life. I'm a better man for having read it. It was rich, deep and meaningful. It has tugged at my aging heart strings and snapped off three, like someone playing the violin with a crowbar. This is the first article this year to actually bring tears to my eyes. Thank you, thank you... Thank you."

important life lessons from 3OH!3
T-t-tongues always pressed to your cheeks
While my tongue is on the inside of some other girl's teeth
You tell your boyfriend, if he says he's got beef
That I'm a vegetarian and I ain't fucking scared of him
She wants to touch me, woo ooh
She wants to love me, woo ooh
She'll never leave me woo ooh, woo ooh, ooh ooh
Don't trust a ho, never trust a ho
Won't trust a ho 'cause the ho won't trust me

learning on a saturday night
"important: do women have prostates?"
"i don't think so..."
"can you find out? it's a matter of great importance."
"why?"
"we NEED to know."
"seriously?! like a matter of life and death NEED to know?!"
"yes."
and apparently women sort of do have prostates... called the skene's gland, it is very similar to the male version and has a role in female ejaculation.

why am i more shocked/upset that infomercial host extraordinaire billy mays is dead than about michael jackson? probably because billy was more relatable and tried to get me to buy awesome merchandise.

(972): they say celebs die in threes. leave it to billy mays to throw in one extra COMPLETELY FREE!
