The Westin Hotel in Times Square is jumping on the PR bandwagon and yesterday launched the 1000 dollar bagel. For a mere one thousand bucks you get a bagel topped with Alba white truffle cream cheese and goji berry infused Riesling jelly with golden leaves. No jewels to take home this time so it’s actually all a loss. You walk in, you pay money, you eat the crap and you leave. Bang! You’re a freaking moron. At least with the others you could go and sell the jewels and recoup some of the costs. This is just inane. "I wanted to create something that speaks to New York, and is also a reflection of my culinary passion for seasonality and fine ingredients," Executive Chef Frank Tujague said in a statement. "Bagels are a New York food landmark, which is where the base for this dish came from. White truffles are a simple, quality ingredient that takes the meal, or the bagel in this case, to the next level." Funny though, just as I said yesterday I simply don’t believe New Yorkers are buying this crap. [source]
A toy made in China for kids in Australia and the US called Bindeez or Aqua Dots has been pulled off the shelves following reports that the parts of the toy, when wet, metabolise to emit GHB. GHB the date rape drug. It couldn’t really be any worse for the Chinese toy manufacturer at this point. I mean, if it were say, a clothes staining dye or even superglue type adhesive it would be better but GHB? I mean, GHB is a drug even dumb ass club sluts try and steer clear of. I mean, I say try – they try to. So, while this is a fully developed nightmare for the Chinese toy maker, it’s also current affairs programme’s wet dream as far as stories go. It’s got all the requisite components to win over freaked out contemporary parents. Fear, rape, children, poison, toys, China. Everything. [source]
Despite the fact that Hugo Chavez is a generally fairly average looking man, some have even said notably ugly (not Yasser Arafat ugly – that freak looked like his mother was a rat headed contagious disease and his father was an open wound), the president of Venezuela was voted the fifth most desired men in the country. Gosh, now, how could that happen? Venezuela is a nation of Catholic peasants who are delivered everything for free. They love him for taking away their hunger and sickness to the extent that he’s essentially a deity to them anyway. That’s not even taking into account the fact that powerful and rich people are always considered more attractive. There’s simply no other way to explain the fact that Donald Trump gets laid. [source]
