China Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Best in grow! Winners of bizarre Chinese women's armpit hair selfie contest crowned The winners of the first 'Women's Armpit Hair Competition' have been announced, after a month of entries flooding in and spiking social media conversation on women's rights. Judged according to the number of likes and shares that their photos accumulated on social media platform Weibo, six winners were chosen. The first place winner had 202 likes and shares and told the Shanghaiist she was sick of her boyfriend taking her bare armpits for granted, while second place was close behind with 135 likes and said she hoped girls would show off their hairy armpits 'without fear.' Over the past month, Weibo was flooded with pictures of Chinese women proudly raising their arms and showing off their armpit hair to the world. The competition kicked off in May, with founder Xiao Yue saying that women do not need to be hairless to feel beautiful. 'Women's armpit hair is considered to be offensive, rude and ungraceful – how come it makes people so uncomfortable?' the 26-year-old told the Shanghaiist.

China Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Big Dreams on View at Brooklyn’s Small Penis Pageant Liquor was not the biggest ego-booster last Saturday at Bushwick’s Kings County Saloon. Sure, drinks were flowing, the standard bar fare supplanted by a festive, milky-colored ****tail called the Penis Colada. But beyond the looser inhibitions synonymous with any day-drinking session, a greater impetus for self love was on display. Five modest men participated in “The Smallest Penis In Brooklyn Pageant,” confident in their skin and content with their shortcomings. Inside Kings County’s new, larger location on Knickerbocker Avenue, a largely female crowd attended the three-hour event, which was broken up between pageant segments so that guests could take frequent trips to the bar counter. Two prior contestants returned, while three newcomers equally immersed themselves in the pageantry to compete for the $500 cash prize. The afternoon felt like part bachelorette party, part social experiment. “I lost last year by the smallest margin,” Taylor, competing under the name Puzzlemaster, told the Observer. “But I think after last year it just helped me with my body image. A big confidence boost.” The confidence of Puzzlemaster and the other competitors was certainly visible, rendered all the more palpable by the fervor of the crowd. One group of ladies showed up to Kings County two hours before doors opened, dead set on getting a good view of the pageantry in the bar’s packed back room.

China Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 To follow up on the smallest penis contest, there is also a Vagina Beauty Contest: Sex Organ Beauty Pageants Bulging Out All Over (NSFW) Beauty contests once focused on the whole package. Now some are just focused on the package -- literally. On Saturday, the Brooklyn-based Kings County Saloon held its 3rd Annual Smallest Penis Contest. In addition, Autoblow, a company that makes a machine designed to perform artificial blowjobs, is now holding a contest to find America's "most beautiful vagina." Add to the mix Brazil's asinine Miss Bum Bum contest, where women compete to win the coveted title of having the country's most shapely posterior. ... Levitt admits the "Smallest Penis Contest" is "taboo and voyeuristic, but figures it's also a statement about equality. "We have a lot of things that objectify women's bodies, but not as many for men," he said. Brian Sloan, the owner and founder of Very Intelligent Ecommerce Inc., the parent company of Autoblow, says his "Vagina Beauty Contest" isn't meant to objectify the vagina, he just wants to improve the quality of his products. "A dirty little secret of the adult toy industry is that the majority of vagina masturbators that are supposedly molded from porn stars and sold as replicas are, in fact, not molded from porn stars and are far from being replicas," Sloan told HuffPost by email. "If you lined up all of the vagina toys available today, you'd find 75 percent of the vaginas to be strikingly similar." Sloan is also aware that the beauty contest is actually looking for the best looking vulva, not a vagina, but said he's being scientifically inaccurate in the name of good branding. "Vulva doesn’t have the same ring to it as vagina," he said. "Yes, I’ve taken some linguistic liberty with the name of this contest, but people will just deal with it." The "Vagina Beauty Contest" currently has 15 vulvas competing to win cash prizes of $5,000, $2,500 and $1,500. The top three vote-getting vaginas will be flown to Los Angeles. The sex organs will get a 3D scan that will allow them to be duplicated publicly on future Autoblow products.

Jumbo Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Even as dead as ATN is this time of year, I didn't think this was worth it's own thread, but it was still fun: http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/russell-wilson-god-spoke-to-me-after-super-bowl-losing-int/ar-AAcFDQu Russell Wilson: God spoke to me after Super Bowl-losing INT The Seattle Seahawks quarterback is extremely religious, so much so, that he says he speaks to the big guy himself on a regular basis. During a recent speaking speaking function at The Rock Church in San Diego, Wilson said he spoke with God in the moments after throwing a Super Bowl-ending interception against the New England Patriots “The play happens, and they pick the ball off. And I take three steps,” Wilson told pastor Miles McPherson and a large crowd Sunday. “And on the third step God says to me, ‘I’m using you. … I want to see how you respond. But most importantly I want them to see how you respond.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in his wake, the animal has his own hashtag: #deadraccoonto. After the city forgot about a raccoon carcass on the side of a Toronto street, people decided to make an example by memorializing the dead animal, according to CBS Minnesota. A passerby noticed the swollen carcass and alerted the city on Twitter to come pick it up. City officials reportedly said the job would be done, but six hours later, the raccoon remained. So people began surrounding the creature with letters, roses, and even a photo of a raccoon, presumably over Conrad at a better time in his life. Finally, about eight hours later, the city clean up crew came and picked up the carcass to dispose of it. https://twitter.com/hashtag/DeadRacoonTO?src=hash watching the memorial grow is the best part 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) Unmindful of onlookers, Henan man gives blow-up doll a riverside bath Images of a man tenderly and without shame giving his inflatable doll a wash in a Henan river have caught web users' attention. Completely ignoring stares from passing pedestrians, the man was seen giving his undivided attention to washing his "girlfriend" on a riverbank in Nanyang city, Henan. While we don't really want to think about why he's giving the inflatable doll a wash-down, the pictures do raise questions as to why he chose to do it in such a public setting.

China Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 'Drunk' squirrel causes hundreds of pounds of damage A "drunk" squirrel has caused hundreds of pounds of damage at a private members' club. The secretary of Honeybourne Railway Club said he originally thought someone had broken into the premises, near Evesham in Worcestershire. The floor was covered in beer and glasses and bottles smashed, Sam Boulter said. Mr Boulter, 62, said he then saw a squirrel "staggering around" after coming out from behind a box of crisps. What a drunk squirrel may look like 'Turned on the taps'He added: "There were bottles scattered around, money scattered around and he had obviously run across the bar's pumps and managed to turn on the Caffrey's tap. "He must have flung himself on the handle and drank some as he was staggering around all over the place and moving a bit slowly.

China Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 1980s computer controls GRPS heat and AC GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A 30-year-old computer that has run day and night for decades is what controls the heat and air conditioning at 19 Grand Rapids Public Schools. The Commodore Amiga was new to GRPS in the early 1980s and it has been working tirelessly ever since. GRPS Maintenance Supervisor Tim Hopkins said that the computer was purchased with money from an energy bond in the 1980s. It replaced a computer that was “about the size of a refrigerator.” The computer is responsible for turning the heat and the air conditioners on and off for 19 school buildings. “The system controls the start/stop of boilers, the start/stop of fans, pumps, [it] monitors space temperatures, and so on,” Hopkins explained. A Kentwood High School student programmed it when it was installed in the 1980s. Whenever the district has a problem with it, they go back to the original programmer who still lives in the area. Parts for the computer are difficult to find, Hopkins said. It is on its second mouse and third monitor. “It’s a very unique product. It operates on a 1200-bit modem,” said Hopkins. “How it runs, the software that it’s running, is unique to Commodore.” ... If the computer stopped working tomorrow, a staff person would have to turn each building’s climate control systems on and off by hand. A new, more current system would cost between $1.5 and 2 million. If voters pass a $175 million bond proposal in November, the computer is on the list of things to be replaced.

Corcaigh Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Those 'cages' look like they would defeat even the most aggressive shark.

Nothing unusual ... except the clouds weren't rain. "We didn't have any clouds yesterday to form anything like that," said Jonathan Kurtz, a meteorologist at the Norman Forecast Office. "Our first indication was some kind of biological feature." What the radar was picking up was bugs, lots and lots of them. Grasshoppers and beetles were flying between the ground and 2,500 feet, covering an area of about 50 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
