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.

This is technically illegal in Paris unless she is riding a horse, holding the reins of a horse, on a bicycle or holding it by the handlebars.

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.
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!
Ho White and the Seven Dwarves’ beer advert angers Disney

A beer advertisement featuring a raunchy version of Snow White has reportedly raised the ire of Disney.
The x-rated advertisement, for Jamieson’s Raspberry Ale, depicts the fairytale heroine blowing smoke rings while lying in bed with seven semi-clad dwarves. In this Disney dystopia, Snow White has been renamed “Ho White”, while the loveable dwarves Sleepy, Happy and Doc are rebranded Filthy, Smarmy and Randy – supposedly to represent different types of drinkers.
Advertisers often forget to view the ads / products / services from the eyes of the consumer. To them it’s a harmless joke but to the consumers it is a vulgar and cruel act of destroying the perfect image of Snow White from their childhood memory. If they did this to Ariel – my favourite Disney princess – I will surely write them a hate mail. HAHA.
“Whatever” has been voted the most annoying word in American English. Nearly 50 per cent of people questioned said “whatever” was the word that bothered them the most. It was the most irritating word in all regions of the country, and among both sexes, all age groups, educational levels and income brackets.

Why was I not surprised? I would have voted for that same word too! This reminded me of the “whatever baby” video which was once popular in youtube. Gosh! The way she rolled her eyes!

Chris Schauerman, of Honeoye Falls, said he noticed one of his chickens appeared ill one day last week. The hen, named Roberta, died later that night but not before it had laid six eggs, including one that was two and a half times the normal size. … “I came up to the chicken and nudged her. She was barely able to pick up her head before it fell back down to the ground.” The farmer is convinced that it was the effort of laying such a huge egg, which has been christened Little Roberta, that proved too much for the hen. … Mr Schauerman said the egg will briefly be displayed to local schoolchildren before he makes it into an omelet.

This is hilarious but depressing at the same time. BAH.
I read an article from telegraph.co.uk about “20 Things to do before you leave University” and realized that I’ve only done 4 of those 20 things listed. Maybe the list was not applicable to our local context or maybe I should have stayed in school for a couple more years! Or maybe not.
