We Have A Winner In The BAC Challenge

August 5th, 2008by Mitch Martin · 1 Comment

Last January a woman in Oregon blew a .72 and recently in Rhode Island a man dropped a .491 but a man in Bulgaria has them both beat. In fact he kicked both of their asses.

When stopped by the cops the unnamed 25 year old reportedly told the officers that he had drank 20 liters of beer and then he passed out right in front of them. For those of you trying to wrap your head around the metric conversions 20 liters is roughly 676 ounces which would be about 5.28 gallons of beer or 42.25 16oz pints.

The article doesn’t say if the cops woke him up for a breathalyzer or if they just drew blood but this guy registered a .851. That is not a typo the guy had a .851 BAC which is double what is generally considered as the lethal limit of .40. I don’t know how this guy survived. His brain has to be literally pickled by booze.

New Milk Jug, Still Can’t Drink In An Hour

July 1st, 2008by Baba Ganoush · 3 Comments

Innovations in your daily household items are few and far between - it’s going to be a while before someone finds a new way to slice bread or an alternative to toilet paper. But there’s a new shape to your gallon milk jug. The more compact, rectangular design helps with cutting production and transport costs. Although people complain about the ease of pouring with the new design.

The real question is if the new design will help you finish a whole gallon in an hour. Unlikely.

Petey P. Cup - The Newest Health Care Mascot

May 21st, 2008by Mitch Martin · No Comments

Meet Petey P. Cup. The 6-foot-11, walking urine vial is being unveiled today as the mascot of HealthPartners’ new website and advertising campaign. The campaign appears aimed at a younger demographic that understands irony, YouTube and social networking.

I bet they didn’t tell Chris in his job interview that “Senior Communications Specialist” meant “The dude that dresses up in the piss cup suit”.

I don’t know about anyone else but it makes me want to pee in a cup.

Masturbating Prevents Cancer, It’s Science!

April 29th, 2008by Mitch Martin · 1 Comment

Let’s just be honest with one another, none of us really need an excuse to look at internet porn. However, it never hurts to have a little ammunition in reserve just in case your girlfriend, wife or even parents bust into the room. Researchers in Australia have found that men who blow their load regularly had a significantly lower risk of developing prostate cancer. The scientists believe that carcinogens build up in the prostate when a man does not regularly feed the ducks. In fact they found that men who ejaculated five times a week were a third less likely to get cancer.

First of all, can we nominate these guys for some kind of an award? Does anyone have the email address for the Nobel Prize committee so that I can forward this on? Not only have these researchers proven that it is healthy to masturbate (suck it bible thumpers) they have given us the only excuse we will ever need when we are caught watching porn. You aren’t a sicko abusing yourself to some platinum blonde getting double teamed, you are trying to maintain your prostate and prevent cancer. You are trying to make sure that you are around for years to come so that you can spend more time with your girlfriend, wife, kids, family, etc. You couldn’t come up with a better excuse if you tried.

Looks like I know what I am going to be doing after work tonight.
