Topless Protesters Protest People Not Going Topless
From the “Stuff We Had No Idea About” files…
Residents of Maine, USA, of any gender are by law permitted to be in public without shirts or any other garment from the waist up. Not content with this, a group of concerned female Mainers is planning to take to the streets of Farmington in an effort to exercise their right to go bare chested, in order to rally more support for their “cause”.
We’re going to abstain from editorializing here, but it goes without saying that such a movement would most likely impact sales of National Geographic in the key “male, 12-15, without Internet access”, demographic.
Leggy Gaga
So the latest rumor going around the intertubes is that Lady Gaga has amputated her leg “for the sake of fashion”. These rumors seem to be based on the image to the right of this post, and “confirmed” by Gaga herself.
However, we don’t buy it, and don’t think you should either. Seems to us like the product of a bored PR team on a slow Friday.
Although, if true, we’re sure she’ll revolutionize the prosthesis accessory industry. Anyone know if LimbFashion.com is available?
Don’t be a Twit. Tweet!
Good news, everyone. We are now on Twitter. That means you don’t even have to visit the website to see what we’re talking about… well, unless you want more than 140 characters’ worth. Which, of course you do, because it’s hard to put anything meaningful into 140 characters.
Heck, the above paragraph is 279 characters, and it could only be considered barely meaningful. Then again, on the other hand, you’re not exactly visiting us because of our deep insights on the human condition, are you?
What were we saying? Oh yeah, Twitter. Now you can follow our latest updates, shenanigans, hijinks, skullduggery, and other words your grandfather‘s parents used to describe his behavior as a child. It’s loads more fun than kicking an empty can of peas or rolling a metal hoop down a hill and chasing after it! Seriously, did kids really do that crap back then?
Weekly WTF? – Cub Scouts to Offer Badge For Video Gaming
Remember when our young boys were taught how to build fires, set snares, identify poisonous berries, and help old ladies across the street?
Neither do the Cub Scouts, apparently!
The editors of Offbeat Earth are wondering how many multi-kills your 9 year old will need on Modern Warfare 2 to earn the Pwnage and l33t badges.

Banned Plus Size Lingerie Commercial
We’re not exactly sure why this was banned from Fox and a few other networks. Too much femininity for them to handle? You be the judge.
