The Chinese cigarette smuggling business is multiplying like rabbits. A big score was seized by customs officers in Spain early this November. Over $1 million worth of “name brand” cigarettes were confiscated.
Police and custom officials were tipped off by dozens of British tourist complaining that their cigarettes “tasted and smelled like poop”. After dissecting several of the cigarettes it became apparent that the main ingredient was not tobacco, but rabbit dung.
“They stunk. They smell just as you’d imagine burning poo to smell. They not only smell bad but the toxic chemicals they give off are pure poison,” said a customs official.
Does this make them any different from regular cigarettes?
Apparently, custom officials have only scratched the surface on this problem. Read more…
It used to be that books were made into movies. But web 2.0 has other plans for books these days, especially ones on topics not suitable for viewing audiences. For those books, they get the iPhone app treatment.
One of NTG’s favorite books, What’s Your Poo Telling You?, is coming to the really small screen. If you have an iPhone, or Android OS in the near future, you can download “Poo Log” the app for $1.99 through Avatar Labs’ site.
Unique and clever or sexy and showing are the only two categories your Halloween costume can fall under if you take this holiday seriously. And you should. Halloween is the one holiday that always surpasses the hype.
You have had 365 days to think of a costume, I expect an effort. All of you pimps, 80’s rock stars and Gods gift to women costumes I roll my eyes and applaud. If it was not for your lack of inspiration my costumes might not be as special every year.
Much like poop, the poop costume ideas do not get thrown around very often. However, there are some un-flushables. The costumes you cannot help but laugh at.
It is very difficult, and some might say impossible, to make a poop costume sexy, which is why most fall under the clever category.
It is not the setting of a bad scary movie, but in fact a toilet shaped house. One might ask, who in their right mind would build such a marvelous structure? Why none other than Sim Jae-duck, the chairman of the organizing committee of the Inaugural General Assembly of the World Toilet Association. Duh, idiot.
The house was appropriately named Haewoojae, which signifies in Korean,”a place of sanctuary where one can solve one’s worries.” Pure poetry.
Sim Jae-duck hopes that this structure will help bring attention to the global need for better sanitation. He probably could have gone another route, like sending out a mass email, but apparently Sim Jae-duck likes to take things to the next level.
Located in the city of Suweon, about 40 km south of Seoul, anyone can visit the “Toilet House” and even stay in one of its many guest bedrooms. Naturally, each bedroom is decked out with state of the art bathroom facilities.
Construction was pushed back 3-6 months due to an unforeseen clog. Ba-dum-cha!
Throwing darts while you poop is in the running for being added to the 2012 Olympics. Currently it ranks an 8 on the exxxtreme scale and sponsored by every energy drink available.
This game is actually a great way to start your morning. Wake up with a challenge and something that requires some coordination. Get the blood flowing.
Leave some skid marks
If you want to purchase this game and create a competitive environment for every single moment of your life you can buy it here for $12.98.
Although the setup and layout of the point system makes sense for darts, I don’t think you would recieve positive points for hitting the 10 and 25 marks if doing the acutal deed.
Here is an interesting invention created by a few students at UC Berkley. It’s made of Lego mindstorms, scissors, and some scrap metal. Apparently it’s stirring up some talks of a Nobel prize. Although this invention is pretty much useless it is still kind of cool.
I would definitely put one in my bathroom if they were available to buy. It would be great for the first few poops, and to show off to my friends. However, after the first few dumps this thing would probably drive me nuts and I would rip it off the wall.
I really can’t think of anyone who would benefit from this. In fact, you just wasted part of your day reading about it. You can never get this time back.
