Pictured: Media hysteria

I’d like to blame the lack of blogging activity of late on mind-controlling parasites or alien mutants, but sadly, a dearth of material and computer troubles are the cause. Oh, the mundanity.

• Debunking the media’s latest ridiculous myth: Vodka-soaked tampons!

• If you’ve never heard of Casu Marzu, Pacha or Balut before … now you are damned. (Your stomach is, anyway.)
  (via friend who I’ll never forgive for showing me this)

• If stereotypes about the U.S. were literally true. Wait, those are fictional?

• Qui-Gon Liam Neeson tries his hand at comedy.
  (via The Agitator)

If you have any story suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments or send them in.
