More smart-ass responses to completely well-meaning signs.
posted yesterdayMost of these signs were designed to help people — to get where they're going, to find a pet, to avoid grievous bodily harm — and yet some writing-utensil-wielding wiseasses felt compelled to come along and totally deface them. We're so glad they did. Does that mean we value a wry sense of humor or even just a lazy reference to an outdated song over the safety of our fellow human beings? We're insulted you would even ask. Of course we do.

posted 02/10/2012Maybe these kids will look back on this and laugh once they're old enough to realize what the hell they were saying. Some of them seem brutally honest, while others just appear to have a tenuous grasp of the English language. Obviously, the latter half are our future politicians.

posted yesterdayThis is pretty much the philosophy that's kept us (barely) alive all these years, though after you turn 35 you need to add a "Just check for blood!" step to the end of the regimen. Still, we've paid hundreds of dollars to licensed physicians who've provided less insight than this.

posted 02/19/2012Redditor rmcoop27 claims he received this ridiculously long string of increasingly deranged text messages from a girl he went out with a single time. There are probably enough pages of red flags and pure insanity here to be collected in a book, called Things Not to Say After One Date. So sit back, start scrolling, and watch what it looks like when someone's psyche completely implodes.

10 more of the most enjoyably cantankerous notes ever posted in the workplace.
posted 02/17/2012Adults are basically just children who've grown fat, watched their dreams die, and learned to shrink from confrontation. So it follows that the modern workplace is just as petty and territorial as your typical elementary school playground, except there's a lot less spitting and hair-pulling, and a lot more bitchy note-writing. The most successful workplace notes strive to entertain just as much as they impolitely advise and chastise, and the notes collected here are some of the best of the medium.

posted yesterdayThis proposed Gmail feature from Abstruse Goose is like a handy digital version of your best friends shaking their heads at you and saying, "Please don't." We hope Google Labs takes note of this brilliant idea, because we need someone to save us from ourselves — and at this point, we're even willing to trust the people who brought us Google+. And Google Wave. And Google Buzz.
[ Via Abstruse Goose ]Unfortunate ad placement creates the most depressing promotion for online dating ever.
posted yesterdayA reader who subscribes to the LAist newsletter spotted this regrettably placed ad above a tragic top story. Since How About We is also the official dating site for Someecards, we want to reassure you that How About We dates usually involve nothing but pleasant encounters with like-minded, well-adjusted individuals, and they almost never end in a suicide pact gone sour. As long as you don't make your profile headline, "How About We...jump to our deaths off of a freeway together," you should be just fine.
[ Via Rebecca C. ]The most convincing argument for increasing school funding contained in a single Facebook post.
posted yesterdayWhoah, woah guys. Caitlyn's right. And so is Sam. Ohio can be a state and it can be in Michigan, because Ohio is a state of mind, dig? When Caitlyn's in Detroit, her soul's still hanging around Cleveland, rooting for the Indians and reading the Plain Dealer. When Caitlyn's in Ann Arbor, in her consciousness she's still back in Cincinnati, eating that chili and listening to WKRP. Geography isn't about where things are, it's about where you're at. Except in Mark's case. Mark's an idiot.
[ Via Redditor Fordged ]A Rick Santorum campaign poster composed entirely of gay porn. (NSFW)
posted 02/21/2012Ladies and gentlemen, we give you the greatest thing to happen yet during this election cycle. The existence of this poster, composed entirely of stills from hardcore gay porn, makes us not even miss a Sarah Palin candidacy. This is way better than a Mitt Romney poster composed of nothing but currency, or a Newt Gingrich poster composed of nothing but donuts and divorce papers, or even a Rick Perry poster composed of nothing but jackasses. First person to print this out and get it signed by Santorum at a rally wins everything. He'll most likely recognize most of the scenes.
