Who knows how many of these are real and how many are setups.  I recognize plenty (as real).  But some test the imagination (like the robbery).

Friday Viral Fix - 11/20

This will be my last attempt at a daily post on stuff that amuses me.  I’ll probably still post some stuff from time to time, but it’s just a time drain.

So, much like Duquan, the Viral Fix is out.  I’m sure my billable hour total will appreciate the not wasting my time surfing.

In the meantime…

Thursday Viral Fix - 11/19

All the fun stuff on the web that I trolled, in one post.  Including promoting graffiti (and spelling… but not hipsters).

Wednesday Viral Fix - 11/19

Below are some of the more entertaining things I found today.

The Onion kicks it off with a story about an area man and his misguided understanding of the constitutional rights for which he is marching.  Parody is best when it hits closets to home, I guess.

Cracked, meanwhile, provides a list (not really a parody, sorry) of the Seven Things “Good Parents” Do (That Screw Kids Up For Life).  It really should start and end with creative names, but whatever.

My Palatte Prefers Things Not Moving

Good grief.  Two days after discovering the awfulness that is Live Lobster Sashimi (served in some Japanese restaurants — example after the jump — where the still alive lobster is forced to watch you eat its tail raw), the Chinese have invested a way of deep frying a fish’s torso while keeping the head alive so that the fish is still breathing while you’re eating its damn cooked flesh (again, video after the jump)

You’ve done enough, Asian cuisine. Have you no sense of decency, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?  You’re libel to start creating vegetarians.

Vegetarians certainly won’t like the below.  For those who are just curious, click away.

Tuesday Viral Fix - 11/18

The story of the day is a bit weak today.  I came across this one on Digg over the weekend.  It is from Chicago Now and asks Oprah’s trainer whether or not the Wii Fit can actually stand next to going to the gym as far as getting a workout in.

As the owner of a Wii Fit and an Equinox dedicatee, I’ll put my two cents in that they are in no way the same.  You will not lose weight in front of your TV… ever.  Unless you take up heroin or crank and nod off on the couch.
