If, like I, you’re an insane fan of the contemptuous Fail blog, and its archived “pictures and videos of owned, pwnd and fail moments,” you’ll relish this opportunity to hoist a critique of human high wackness off the web and into 4-dimensional spacetime. The new clear-backed FAIL stickers—6 inches wide by 3 1/2 inches high—adhere to walls, windows, other people’s property, and, most of all, human beings, like the half-snoozing drunky, above. Get five for $4.99, 25/$14.99, and 50/$24.99. Deeply gratify your inner misanthrope.

Biomimicry, according to an institute which bears the name, “is the practice of developing sustainable technologies inspired by ideas from nature,” like, for example, studying the seemingly frictionless quality of shark skin, in order to design better boat hulls.
Yet, somehow, I don’t think the aureate schlong pictured above was what scientists had in mind. Dubbed The Shenis by its creator, Kiki Curry, it’s 12 inches of hard plastic she calls “the female answer to standing to pee for ladies.”

Liquid Generation vomits up their Garbage Pail Kids parody, Garbage Fail Kids, above, with a riff on chanteuse Rihanna’s alleged assault by R&B singer Chris Brown. (Note the carved text, “CB WUZ HERE,” in her right shoulder, not to mention numerous bite marks, including a chomp through her skull.) Go ahead. Laught it up.

Check out this lovely portrait of Kahleefawnyuh Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, taken after waking him from a twenty-year sleep.
In fact, it’s an entry in FreakingNews.com’s “Beards Pictures,” part of their ongoing series of advanced Photoshop pictures contests.

What’s way cooler? Is it this February 2009 cover for MAD magazine, above, titled, “Obama: The First 100 Minutes,” revealing a hyperperplexed new president in a classic “What? ME WORRY!!!!” pose, sucking down nicotine sticks by the bushel, gurgling Pepto-Bismol, and grabbing his cranium for even a moment’s sweet relief?
Or is it this dry March 2009 Vanity Fair cover, right, pushing forward a dignified, confident, fossilized, stuffy Obama, complete with bland taupe background, shot in a style that seems as dated as Obama’s presidency is fresh?
As even the fastest walk-run past a newsstand reveals, everybody’s sticking Obama on their covers, even if they have absolutely no reason to do so. I can hardly wait to see Expert Bowler Today, Black Mother Magazine, and Stutterers Digest get in on the action.
And speaking of getting in on the action, how mega-lame is it for Vanity Fair to front a front by using the exact, same, leftover shot they ran back during the American Express RED Africa, 20-person multiple cover back in July 2007? And how come The Huffington Post, raving over the cover, didn’t notice this? Tih-zired.
Mad: 2. Vanity Fair: You get nuh-ting!.

I’m not really clear on who’s the creator of this not-for-sale take on the classic child’s teddy bear, above. They’re prolific, though, as these sister creations make obvious. Hey: Which one’s your favorite: The cat that didn’t quite escape a fast-moving Oldsmobile, a tiger apparently having buyer’s remorse, or, again, the teddies that didn’t quite separate correctly in Mommy Teddy Bear’s womb?

Looking to lose weight in the New Year? Jennifer Kenny’s Color Me Beautiful outlines her dynamic and innovative approach to exercising off the pounds: She links muscle groups to an entire “color wheel,” getting them to act together as one unit.
For example, B.L.U., or “blue,” stands for Bilateral Latissimuss Upright, indicating the parts of the body to be worked. Kenny’s is a tough routine, but the results, as she demonstrates, can really be something to look at. Highly recommended, whether you’re in shape…or thinking about getting there!

How did this woman, above, obtain that plaid flannel shirt? After studying the Movie Reality page, one of the web’s best compilations of film clichés, I think I know: Cheap and frequent loose sex.
How do I know that? I carefully analyzed the image’s details, after reviewing notes from, “At Least 150 Things You Would Never Know if Not for Television and the Big Screen,” below. It’s all the stuff you’ve seen on-screen that never happens to you. Wouldn’t it be great if real life were this neat?
In the movies, or on TV:
• Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant. Murky or clear, these dreams always have great personal significance.
• After a night of lovemaking, when a man’s new girlfriend finds herself in his unfamiliar home, a flannel shirt will always be available. No matter the boyfriend’s stature, this flannel shirt will be large enough to fit a hefty lumberjack. She’ll wear it as she rummages through his kitchen the next morning, but there won’t be anything to cover her legs.

Its laughable gynecological ambitions aside, what may be most fascinating about this long-derided cover for rapper Pooh Man’s 1992 Jive/Zomba album, Funky As I Wanna Be, above, is that it’s one of the most expertly executed ones on the Museum of Bad Album Covers web site.
