If you like pee on the toilet seat DO NOT click here

Posted by Maggels in Untagged 

Maggels

Who likes pee on the seat? Girls don’t (as perennial squatters) and neither do guys (perhaps squatting less frequently but arguably with more purpose), so surely something is out of line that we keep returning to dribble covered seats and making the experience all the more horrific. SURELY something can be done?!?!

 

I just might have the solution.

Pro X wakeboarders hit the Cape Town Adderley fountain

Wakeboarders - Adderley Street Fountain

Fox Clothing South Africa were in Cape Town for the Pro - X, which went down in Malmesbury over the weekend. Part of the event was a wakeboarding demonstration but this was cancelled when the pools holding the water broke open, spilling 200 00 litres of water and ruining any chance of riding.

Determined to get into water of some kind they guys packed everything up and headed in search of a spot to ride, arriving in downtown city centre. There were a few waders in the Adderley fountain and that looked like the perfect opportunity to get wet.

Is it OK to laugh at how many dead celebs there were in 2009?

Posted by kyle stroebel in millvina dean

kyle stroebel

In my perennial quest for the ultimate literary taboo there is nothing more controversial than death. The dead must be respected, even cherished, regardless of their sins committed while flatly footed on mother earth. It doesn’t matter whether you were embezzling tax dollars, poaching animals or the foreman for a Ku-Klux-Klan Nazi foot fetish society; passing on is a sure way for some sort of final respect to be earned.  Utter bollocks! Our alcoholic former health minister, loved by garlic and beetroot farmers alike, passed away in the last year from, yip you guessed it; liver failure. Saturating your body with enough liquor to power a Fiat Punto and committing a minor genocide through continued AIDS denialism does not garner any kind of admiration. Frankly I’m glad she’s gone, another stain cleansed from our tarnished carpet of political history. And while I sit here awaiting a lightning bolt to strike me down for my moral indiscretions, I’m taking a look at the 2009 calendar year and thinking it wasn’t a good one to be a celebrity. And most of these deaths were not “natural causes”. Sure you have Beatrice Arthur, that beloved old sex kitten from the Golden Girls, who  kicked the bucket at 86. And while I cant be sure, I’m near certain she was wearing a crotchless cow girl suite when her lights went out. But on the whole,  there were some eerie passings this last 12 months. Circumspect deaths were in greater abundance than black eyes on Rihanna; and they don’t seem to be stopping anytime soon. So heres a plea to celebrities for 2010; don’t operate heavy machinery, drive at the speed limit and don’t overdo the Viagra if you’re a sexually adventurous 85 year old with a heart condition.
