Joke of the Day

Funky

Taser, meet iPod. iPod, meet Taser. Isn’t that a natural combination? The concept appears to be that when someone tries to nick your MP3 player, you can shock the idea out of their crack-addled noggin with 50,000 volts. Presumably this particular piece of convergent genius emerged from...

Eep. In Color.

So… I have a hair appointment tonight. I’m actually getting my hair dyed (matching my current color) to cover some of the grey. Maybe it’s because I have more grey hair than my Mom does? Right now, when I pull my hair back from my face, most...
