Laundry Can Be Hard. And Have Large Jugs.

It can also be a sticky mess. But as long as you just put it in...wait, what? Method? You ruined it for everyone. Well, at least you gave us four quick pumps and a happy ending. Guess we can't complain all that much.

GoDaddy Girl Gives Birth to Baby Girl (Publicity Ploy of the Week)

Candice-Michelle-Swim.jpg

Yes, it's true. Even curvaceous beauties whose breasts are so prodigiously protuberant their tops can't contain the enormity of their magnanimous girth causing them to suddenly bulge forth in the middle of a courtroom have babies. Yes. It's true. GoDaddy Girl Candice Michelle has given birth to a girl, AkiAnne.

Michelle and her husband KenGee welcomed AkiAnne into the world on Sunday. And, yes, they've registered AkiAnneRose.com with Godaddy. What? You didin't think there was DoDaddy sales pitch in here somewhere?

Of the registration, Michelle said, "I registered her dot-COM name, and a few other back-up domain names, as soon as we decided on our baby's name. I wanted to be sure AkiAnne had her very own place on the Internet, where we can post videos and photos -- it's a great way to keep in touch with friends and family. I really do think, someday soon, everyone will have a domain name, just like we all have a cell phone number." Gee. Really?

CrowdSourcing to Get New Name

crowdsourcing-cartoon1.jpeg

You have got to be kidding. This has to be a joke, right? GeniusRocket, Victors and Spoils (Oops. What GeniusRockey hoped for didin't actually happen) and 99 Design are...wait for it...crowdsourcing a new name for crowdsourcing.

Seriously?

This is going overboard like a passenger jumping off the backside of the Titanic. And getting whacked by the propeller on the way down.

Apparently, $1,000 is up for grabs to anyone willing to be publicly chastise for whatever inane new name comes from this idiocy.

But just for fun, we'll give it a go: Lamevertising, MobMarketing, Franchisevertising, SwarmTeaming, HerdHocking, SocialSwarming, IdioIdiation, FlockFlacking, Social Marketing, SocialSeeding, SocialSourcing, Distributed Marketing, Collaborative Marketing or I'm So Fucking Lazy I Have to Ask Other People to Do My Job...vertising.

Nightclub Ladies Room Bladder-Blocked For WaterAid

wateraid_ladies_room.jpg

This one gets points for perseverance. Gabrielle Tigan sent us her entry for the Cannes Young Lions WaterAid competition. She sent it to us a few days ago, writing, "I promise no usage of toilet humor or long shots of glasses of water."

We yawned.

But then we thought, Hmm. What guy wouldn't want to voyeuristically be in the ladies room with a bunch of hotties?" So we watched.

We yawned again.
