from a romance comic

Best new blogs:

I'm Not Racist But

is a new blog which collects racism from people's Facebook updates. The author simply searches for the phrase "not racist but" and posts examples of how not racist people are. (

Not Sexist But

does the same with hatin' on women folk). Also, check out

Literally Unbelievable

a blog devoted to the people who have no idea that The Onion is satire. It sprouted after so many on Facebook were taken in by this

story on satire site

The Onion. And if you like candid pictures of famous faces,

Awesome People Hanging Out Together

, is a fantastic picture blog about just that. (Micheal Jackson and Paul McCartney washin' some dishes! Awesome)

Cute:

Teddy catches his first fish.

Heart-melts. And

this kid

would be a great motivational speaker.

Picture this:

See

the most kissed girl

in the world. "Back in the 19th century, she was pulled dead out of the Seine and never identified, but all was not lost because she became somewhat of a legend, and her face was eventually used as the basis for Rescue Annie, the dummy that's used to teach people CPR. So now she spends her days lying around on dusty YMCA floors all over the country getting 'kissed'."

Classic Kiwi film:

Wonderful excerpt

of a cameo from John Clarke selling Ford Zephyr 6 Mk. III to a young Tem Morrison in feature film

Never Say Die

(1990) "Goes like a strangled fart," he says...Ah, but it's better if you hear Clarke deliver the whole sales pitch...

Pop culture:

Did you know the song

Mah Nà Mah Nà

didn't originate with The Muppets or

Sesame Street

, but it's actually from a documentary -

Sweden: Heaven or Hell

- which has scenes of swingers parties, nude beaches, and lesbian nightclubs.

Hear how it went here.

Fetus on Facebook:

Setting up a Facebook page for your unborn child is the latest trend for today's generation of attention seeking parents-to-be. In the profile information for their 4-month-old fetus, already named Marriah,

this Texas couple

lists her employer as 'God' and says that she goes to 'Tummy University'. Her hobbies include gymnastics in her Mum's belly and football - she is 'quite the kicker'. Ack!

I remember this New Zealand seat belt ad from the 80s like it was yesterday...Do you?
