Good morning, children!

[apocalypsos]

Baby born with 12 functioning fingers and toes. Aw, look at the wee little fingers! Lookie all the toes! Oh, wow, look at the pediatrician's enormous mutton chops!

More information about the octuplets, including the mom and possible father. I just ... ugh. Something really skeevy is going on here.

The 6 Most Pathetic Attempts to Get Super Bowl Tickets

I didn't know the mayor of DC and his wife were that damn hot.

Who wants to see disapproving baby tortoises?

Revisionist female body image FAIL.

Also, holy crap, you guys.

Okay, seriously - what was that thing in the drug bust? I mean, I know what it LOOKED like, but...

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

It was EXACTLY what it looked like. :)

[pekover.livejournal.com]

Was it evidence of something, though? Or do they just take EVERYTHING out of the house when they do a bust?

Or do I just not want to know...

That kid's going to need a special sword.

(Let's all just be glad that I went the Princess Bride route rather than mentioning the X-Files episode with the Nephilim.)

OH geez those reproductions of Venus/Aphrodite!!

*headdesk*

Those 'art reproductions' suck.

I can't believe those art reproductions. Major fail!

I love this bit in the first story... "I realize children would tease each other over the slightest things, and having extra digits on each hand is more than slight. But imagine what sort of a pianist a 12-fingered person would be imagine what sort of a flamenco guitarist, if nothing else think of their typing skills.”

yes! Sure, he might be subject to lifelong ridicule... but he could play the piano like a dream....

I found it kind of refreshing for a member of the medical profession to see a physical anomaly and think of the possibilities rather than automatically go "CUT IT. CUT IT NOW."

Oh, I agree... it's just the way she worded it that cracked me up.

...I didn't know you were allowed to have whiskers like that outside of a production of Oliver! but I appreciate them nonetheless. And I hope the kid gets to keep his awesome extra digits.

And oh dear god disapproving baby tortoises.

The art stuff leaves me stunned.

The baby turtles, OTOH, are adorable. As God intended.

[suaine.livejournal.com]

Okay, those little fingers and toes were adorable, as were the turtles.

Words still fail me on the octuplet situation.

The art reproductions are cringe-worthy. I always thought art reproduction should be as close to the original as possible and that's how I would judge it (in which case, this one rather fails).

As for the dildo, I cannot say how hard I laughed. It is so perky and floppy and stick-out-y!

Oh, hell, poor Jeff. He is currently reporting here in Dallas. He never, ever gets to live that clip down.

And why would someone give anorexia and what looks like cloven feet to Venus? Freaks!

RE the video clip, that's clearly the battering ram they said they used to knock the door down! ;)

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

HA! Somebody said pretty much the same thing over on Smart Bitches. ;D

[emella.livejournal.com]

I love when you post random awesomeness, it makes my day. :)

[myniamh.livejournal.com]

That kids fingers are gorgeous, hope he gets to keep them. Vive la différence.

I got the impression that the guy with the box did that deliberately. Excellent.

The only thing I could think during that news clip?

"Dude, you turned around at just the wrong time."
