OMG. These bridezillas are scary!

Insecure brides recruit fat bridesmaids to make themselves look good

Brides are becoming so nervous about their appearance ahead of their wedding day that they intentionally pick fat friends to accompany them up the aisle, according to research. One in three engaged British women admitted that they would choose an overweight friend to be their bridesmaid in order to make them look comparatively slimmer.

I wish I could do this! Fly balloon fly!

Do you remember playing Pac-Man game on the old computers in your younger days? I do! Whenever my mum has to work in the office during weekends, I’ll tag along just to play Pac-Man at her colleague’s computer! Now, you have 48 hours (or less as the second goes pass) to enjoy this game on Google homepage! Their first ever interactive illustration! Awesome!

“Web users can still perform a search through the Google home page, but those who want to play the game have to click on the “Insert coin” button. Clicking that button twice allows you to play a two-player game, with one player taking the role of Miss Pac-Man, and controlling her progress using the W, A, S and D characters on the keyboard.

Google said it had commissioned the doodle, its first ever interactive illustration, to mark the 30th anniversary of Pac-Man‘s release. Google said the launch of Pac-Man marked “a significant moment in popular culture”, and said that web users had 48 hours to “re-live the nostalgia” of the 1980s by playing the game on the Google site.”

Determined to help himself with those lollies, this little greedy lad got himself trapped in a lolly machine! HAHA. He was very calm. I’m sure he was very reluctant to leave the lolly-wonderland. Amazing. Is he Baby Copperfield?

If only SingPost allowed us to post these miniature cards during Valentine’s Day! I love receiving letters / cards via slow mail! It will be cuter if we can also mail miniature ones! Maybe I should test the system. HAHA

I love chocolates. I love shoes. This can be perfect.

But I don’t think I will ever put these pretties in my mouth. It’s just so wrong.

“Frances Cooley, a cake maker, launched the range after discovering a vintage chocolate shoe mould in Belgium. She has developed a collection of individual shoes – including zebra stripes and polka dot versions – which she makes by hand in her own kitchen. … She said: ”People are wowed about them because it’s the perfect gift for a woman – chocolate and stiletto shoes put together.”

Imagine this Christmas, your child / niece / nephew sings “Paedophile, Paedophile, Paedo all the way.” This would be the greatest fear of all parents! For this very reason, concerned parents lodged complaints against the distributor and they had to recall their Paedophile Singing Toy Mouse. HAHA.

The world is getting weirder as people are getting more liberal. I personally feel that to certain extend marriage is sacred and I do not encourage divorce but I have nothing against people who are divorced. But divorce cakes?!

Even though the baker – Fay Millar, claims that her cakes are not meant to be spiteful but are fun and celebratory, but looking at the designs I can’t help but imagine a bunch of people torturing the edible figurines of their ex-husband / wife like a voodoo doll in their celebratory mood. Right. Not spiteful at all, just pure innocent fun.

Haha. But I must agree some designs are hilarious, very creative and rather quirky but others are plain evil. I guess this is yet another smart entrepreneur tapping on a growing trend.

Warning: Please do not try to imitate the figurines above.

Women banned from wearing trousers in Paris
A decree banning women from wearing trousers in Paris is still technically in force, it emerged on Monday, making the laissez-faire French capital theoretically stricter than hardline Sudan in the fashion stakes.

bra for golf[Source: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/6543240/Bra-that-can-be-used-as-a-golf-putting-mat.html]

Lingerie makers Triumph have unveiled the ‘Nice Cup in Bra’, which can be removed, rolled out and used as a putting mat for the keen and busy golfing lady. The green corset-style garment can be removed and unrolled to create a 1.5m-long putting mat (WTH!). When the user sinks a putt into one of the cups, a built-in speaker pumps out a congratulatory “Nice shot!(TALKING BRA!). The bra also features pockets for extra golf balls and tees, and a detachable flag pin that serves as a score pencil. Quite how the user is supposed to do cover herself when she removes the underwear is unclear (BRRRR. COLD….).

This is ridiculous and this can only come from the crazy Japanese. Even though they mentioned that this “Nice Cup in Bra” is generally designed to raise awareness of an issue (-_-), rather than be worn regularly, the idea is just insane! HAHA!
