Happy March! Celebrate with these Awesome Dogs!

Alex from Internette just sent me this amazing video. Purina ad part aside, this is incredibly photography and really captures the beauty and essence of dogs. I love them so much!

Enjoy!

Could Someone Please Explain This to Me?

Unsurprisingly, Canada McDonald's will be offering an Olympic menu over the next few weeks.

Normal things they've included: Olympic toys for Happy Meals

Things I Cannot Figure Out for the Life of Me: Creme-Brulee Crunch McFlurry, S'Mores Pie, Spicy Szechwan Dipping Sauce, and Zesty Mango Dipping Sauce.

At first I thought that maybe they were trying to do a "foods from around the world" theme, but that would not explain the S'Mores Pie. Plus, which region, specifically, does Mango represent?

So I thought maybe it was more of a Winter theme (Winter Olympics, after all), but then the Mango and the Szechwan sauces really don't make sense.

Any ideas?

Facebook, Stop Freaking Me Out

I don't like that Facebook seems to know me intimately. I just read two of their sidebar advertisements:

1) 2 Miniature Poodles for sale! Please give them loving homes!

2) Pittsburgh T-shirts for sale! Show your pride!

How do they know that Pittsburgh's secretly been winning me over OR that I have an unhealthy obsession with puppies, specifically poodles!? I don't understand! The internets has invaded my brain!

Also, I should note: Hooray Penguins!!! 2 major wins in one year, how do you do it, Pittsburgh?

A Facebook Ad:

Man, if I had done this a year ago, I would be SO rich and they would be SO pissed at me right now.

Elite Egg Donors

But seriously, check out their website. It's shmancy and who doesn't want $50K? Plus it's got super suave music and a trendy attitude with videos and graphic design galore. If that doesn't want to make you sell your eggs for cash, I don't know what will.

Oh, but some applicants "need not apply." My hunch from the blue-eyed, white babies on the home page was confirmed with a visit to their criteria for donors section.

Sigh... good ol' racism shrouded in selective breeding.
