The store was closed, so we did not go in and run out with any goods.

At least God wasn't last. Or forgotten altogether.

I struggled to imagine what they would want them for. Then I decided it was best not to know.

Airport propaganda from the pit bull cult. The adoption of the language of the civil rights movement by every random cause is getting a little ridiculous.

A bit of "Slovakrish". I misinterpreted the first word as an adjective rather than an imperative verb, and laughed out loud in the middle of the ice cream shop. Of course, I could be wrong about this. I mean, you *could* lose weight on such a regime. And it'd be a damn sight more fun than Crossfit.

There were a bunch of billboards like this in Poland and Slovakia, using sex to draw attention to fundamentally unsexy products and services. Unfortunately, this was my one opportunity to get a shot of one, and it happened to be a Thor lookalike selling valve jobs instead of the more common O-faced women selling brake service and red-stilettoed lady legs hawking building materials. An interesting implication here is that there are enough female and/or gay male truck drivers in Poland to warrant this particular version of the marketing tactic. I have no idea what the red billboard is hawking, but given the woman's facial expression while hugging the goat like a bagpipe the sexual overtones in this case may be disturbingly context-appropriate.

No. Just...no.

Come now, you were thinking it too. (In Dulles, en route to Munich.)

It appeared to be the same product, with different wrappers, and one version cut into shorter rolls. No wonder Swedes seem so dour.

If your lady has a banana, she might be a mango.

On an emergency whistle. "If you're using this, then you're SOL."

Cashmere does not, in fact, grow on trees.

It's been a month now, folks- you might as well accept the fact that your cat has already cycled through the colon of the local mountain lion and won't be coming back. (I actually bust out laughing when I saw this. Not because it's funny, it's actually kind of cruel, but because people here commonly plaster small "SCAM" stickers similar to this over those cheap wire advertising signs illegally posted along roadways. I think this was meant to be a mean joke based on that practice.)

Because 100 million victims and counting is hilarious. There is zero moral difference between this product (or Daz Bog Coffee's similar Soviet-"nostalgia"-themed product names) and the Hitler-themed restaurants and products that turn up every now and then in Asia. [via Gina]

The downside of hydration packs.

I'm guessing this one got higher than a PG rating.

This is so horrifying if you understand the implications that it's actually hilarious.
