To those of you that haven’t heard, last week John McCain initiated another, somewhat questionable fundraising strategy. McCain sent all of his supporters a $1 bill in the mail along with almost laughable plea for money, asking the people he spams with falsehoods about his rival to “return this dollar with a hundred more of [their] own for a total contribution of $101.”

First of all, Yeah right– I’m keeping that dollar if you send it to me. Secondly, we here at Blogadilla feel that McCain is more deserving of a bill of a different amount:

Known as Stripper Fail, this nsfw video will definitely have you laughing for quite a while.  Don’t worry, there’s no nudity here - it’s much worse.

If you were one of the many who was outraged at the New Yorker for their recent cover with Barack and Michelle Obama, check out David Horsey’s spoof McCain National Review cover.  The sad thing, though, is that the stuff about McCain is actually true and not just satire like with the Obamas!

(Thanks for the heads up, Eliot!)

Guess who’s not going to be vice president? That’s right– South Carolina governor, Mark Sanford. The state of South Carolina should be oh-so proud, with Sanford doing his best Lauren Caitlin Upton impression. Kudos to Keith Olbermann’s Countdown for this brilliant mashup.

The bierbauch (which in German literally means “beer belly”) is essentially a camelbak for your stomach, making beer consumption easier than ever.  Also from the makers of the bierbauch comes the getraenke büstenhalter– a  wine bra, so women can partake in the drinking action.  Germans are equal opportunity drinkers!

Buy a bierbauch here for just $34.95.

Are you Male, Single, and Lonely? Got $175?

If you answered yes to all of these questions, then EMA is for you. Dubbed a “Busty Bot for Lonely Hearts” by the Sydney Morning Herald, “EMA”– which stands for Eternal Maiden Actualization– goes on sale in Japan this September for around $175, with a target market of lonely adult men. Even though she’s only 15 inches tall, her creators say “She’s very lovable and though she’s not a human, she can act like a real girlfriend,” entering “Love Mode” as well as being able to sing, dance, and pass our business cards.

(Thanks for the tip, Arian!)

Throughout gradeschool and highschool, English teachers repeatedly stated that it was our civic duty as Americans to adore and admire the works of Mark Twain. Years later and I still hate him.

Here is a revised list of the many reasons why I think Mark Twain is a douche:

• Tom Sawyer Island and the Mark Twain Riverboat are the lamest rides at Disneyland.

• He gave his characters dippy names like Huckleberry and Pudd’nhead. No kid would have gone by the name Huckleberry - classmates would have called him Hucklefairy or Fuckleberry. And Pudd’nhead already sounds dirty.

• Mark Twain impersonators (”Twainies”) are the lowest strata of the nerd pecking order - even Star Trek geeks and Renaissance Faire nerds make fun of them and beat them up.

• He was overly fond of the word “Yankee,” and often used it as an obscene verb.

• Mark Twain and Colonel Sanders used to go to parties together dressed the same. They thought it would get them chicks.

• Both Ernest Hemingway and Jack London could have taken Twain in a fistfight.

• At a time when people were dying of cholera, the standards for humor were pretty low. Frog jumping contests and suckering someone into painting a fence = SO NOT FUNNY.

• There are dozens of public schools and parks named after Mark Twain, but there isn’t even a single parking lot named after Elmore Leonard.

Last April, British supermarket chain Tesco removed a model of padded bra from their shelves.

It was designed for 7-to-10-year-olds.

A Tesco representative said:
“It is a product designed for girls at that self-conscious age when they are just developing. It is designed to cover up, not flatter, and was developed after speaking to parents.”

As many of us had wished-upon those (bastard) classmates who were “successful” in high school: a recent study showed that 29% of high school seniors who were “doing well” failed to become financially independent by age 26, and 20% failed to meet their expected life goals at age 26.

Dr. John Schulenberg, professor of developmental psychology at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor:

“We used to think that if things were going well in high school, they’d continue to go well.”

Ha. Ha.

Vintage footage of professional jackass Bill O’Reilly having a conniption fit (during the shooting of an episode of “Inside Edition”) has made its way around the interwebs in recent weeks.

Honestly, I would be more surprised to see footage of him not acting like a d!ck.

Behold the brilliant Barely Political “unseen footage” edit of the O’Reilly pants-pooping:

Frustrated with all the unsolicited junk mail you receive? DearBulkMailer.com has come up with a great way to exact revenge on the very people that spam you. Or, put in other words: seeing as how you receive all this unsolicited junk mail every month from spammers, isn’t it s only fair that they should receive something unsolicited from you?

In 4 easy steps:

This only works with “No Postage Necessary When Mailed In the US” envelopes, and the kicker is this: when using these prepaid envelopes, the company that receives the piece of mail has to pay approximately 20 cents per ounce on what is delivered to them. This is no problem with a normal letter, but when you tape the no postage necessary envelope to a box containing an 8 pound brick, the junk mailer winds up having to pay $25, with all of the proceeds going to the US Postal Service.

Take that, junk mail!
