C*ckblocking Bear of the Day: Purity Bear returns with some sass to prevent a couple of mild-mannered adults from throwing their lives away for some meaningless, natural sex. Seriously, don’t these registered voters know that [enter completely made-up statistic that will ultimately do far more damage than a few minutes of a safe and healthy expression of normal human sexuality ever could here]?!

Smear Campaign of the Day: GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum, who has been battling a certain “Google Problem” for nearly a decade, apparently thought it wise to have his latest political ad feature a Mitt Romney lookalike firing a brown, frothy substance at a cardboard cutout of his image. Then again, considering Santorum is now tied for first place with Romney, maybe it was? After all, everyone loves a good poop joke. In related news, Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine — AKA the “guy who got kicked out of Metallica for snorting too much cocaine” — has official endorsed Rick Santorum for President. “You know, I think Santorum has some presidential qualities,” he told MusicRadar.com, “and I’m hoping that if it does come down to it, we’ll see a Republican in the White House… and that it’s Rick Santorum.” [wonkette / politico / @elibraden.] Tagged: Frothy Mix, mitt romney, Political Ad, Rick Santorum, Smear Campaign, video |

Heart Of Darkness of the Day: A Valentine’s Day balloon is being blamed for a power outage that left over 15,000 Southern California Edison customers in the dark. According to Edison spokesman David Song, the metallic balloon hit a substation in Fontana, triggering the outage. It took a utility crew over an hour to restore power to the area. Song said that while balloons are a frequent source of power line and transformer shortages, it is rare for one to knock out a substation. Edison recommends balloon givers ensure their gifts are kept indoors or tied down. Or maybe just go with flowers next time. Tagged: Heart Of Darkness, valentine's day |

Future Darwin Award Recipient of the Day: A patron of the Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas went all literal on employees and had to be carted out of the restaurant on a gurney by EMTs. The establishment where customers over 350 pounds eat for free and a sign on the wall reads “a taste worth dying for” is known for serving 6,000 calorie burgers stacked high with cheese and bacon. The unidentified man, who was in the process of scrafing down a Triple Bypass Burger, began sweating and shaking profusely, prompting one of the nurse-themed waitresses to alert the restaurant’s proprietor, “Doctor” Jon Basso. “One of the nurses came back to me and said, ‘Dr. Jon, we’ve got a patient who’s in trouble,” said Basso. As Fox 5 Vegas deemed it necessary to note, “Doctor” Jon is not a real doctor, so he phoned 911 and told them to send an ambulance. “I actually felt horrible for the gentleman because the tourists were taking photos of him as if it were some type of stunt,” Basso told Fox 5. “Even with our own morbid sense of humor, we would never pull a stunt like that.” He said this was the first real heart attack the Heart Attack Grill has experienced. Meanwhile, the “patient” is reportedly “alive and recuperating.” [fox5vegas.] Tagged: darwin award, Does What It Says, Heart Attack Grill |
