It’s 2012 and There Are Still People That Believe in Witchcraft and Human-Animal Hybrids
Have you ever wondered what our world would be like if we had all of the technology we do now, but we still held on to the superstitions and fears of the 1700s and 1800s? Imagine having Reddit, Buzzfeed, Twitter, and Facebook during the Salem Witch Trials.

How to Celebrate a Virtual Valentine’s Day
Commercials for Match.com assure us that 105% of all new relationships start online these days, and that’s a lot. Times have changed and no longer do people want to actually be near other people. Friends are filthy albatrosses around our necks and interpersonal relationships can lead to paternity episodes of Maury. In this crazy world, the only sane choice is an online relationship. Tell yourself this if you’re alone and occasionally have dirty conversations with strangers in Yahoo chat rooms. They still have chat rooms, right?

These Are The Sexy Things I Keep In My Pants
Out there somewhere there are hundreds, if not thousands, of researchers trying to make it big by publishing a study that will rattle the world and force us all to change the way we live. Until that day comes, many researches spend their time cranking out one useless study after another as a way of paying their dues. I have no idea if that’s how the world of scientific research works, but it’s the only logical explanation for why there are studies like this one, which claims that 43% of women carry around a pair of sexy underwear “just in case,” presumably because you never know when you might need to impress a man with an article of clothing that’s hidden out of sight beneath other articles of clothing.

The Next Great Zombie Evolution
Zombies are one of the most versatile monsters in fiction. From its humble roots as a ghoul hungry for flesh, the zombie now comes in more flavors than Baskin Robbins. We have intelligent zombies, fast zombies, feeling zombies with undead manginas, zombies stalked by hilarious zombie killers and zombies that use machine guns and the odd garden hoe. The story of zombies keeps evolving, from the creatures themselves, to the worlds they inhabit.

The Truth About Rhinos

After finding out this truth, your perception of the world will be altered -- forever.
