Beer Goggles for yourself (too true and too stupid)

A friend of mine once joked that unfortunately beer goggles can work both ways - not only does the person you're picking up seem more attractive the night before, but so does your alcohol-induced perception of yourself in the mirror.

It might sound stupid, but think back to the last time you checked yourself out it the mirror right before you and your friends headed out for the night - you thought you looked pretty good right?

So don't be surprised if you're not the only one running for the door the next morning! Then take a second look at your reflexion.

UPDATE: Don't take my word for it, check out this article from MSNBC "Hot or not? Look again —'beer goggles' are real"

HBO Canada (too stupid it's taken this long!)

Finally!!!...HBO has come to Canada.

Albeit it's called 'HBO Canada'... And you can't get it as a single channel, only as part of a premium pay package like The Movie Network or Movie Central... And it's required to comply with the insanely stupid federal CanCon regulations and devote 25% of overall air time, and 35% of prime time, to Canadian content ...
But they promise the schedule will include the full HBO lineup.

So far I'm not disappointed. We spent the afternoon watching four back-to-back episodes of Real Time With Bill Maher. I'm not a Bill Maher fan by any stretch of the imagination, but it was pretty good. Bill, like Yellow Bear, is a cynic and loves to point out the stupidity of others. I absolutely laughed my ass off at this video clip.



(Keeping in mind that this episode aired right after McCain announced Palin as his running mate (hands down the stupidest move of his campaign), so this is joke is a bit old now, (and of course it's pre-Tina Fey) I found it funny as hell.)

Too Stupid | 2 for Toopid

2 for Toopid !

This website is devoted to all stupid things in life - as Yellow Bear says: "Toopid !"

Yellow Bear is extremely cynical and points out anything and everything remotely stupid.
Clarisse generally agrees with him about almost everything.
