Fat Bottomed Girls... make a ginormous underwear business go 'round

Shopping for clothes can be hard.  Finding the right style and fit can be a pain.  Especially if you're a strange size.  I've always been a fairly skinny guy, and for years had to search for or special order jeans with a 29" waist.  Or just buy 30" waist and cinch that belt extra tight. But I can't imagine the opposite end of the spectrum where you're so large you can't shop or even order from most of the stores at the mall. 

Enter The Big Bloomers Company.  Making underwear for large women.  I'm not talking "Victoria's Secret is a little tight on me" large.  I mean VERY large women.  As in 9XL and larger.  As in waist sizes over 100 inches - more than three times my current waist size.  You can check them out for yourself at www.thebigbloomerscompany.co.uk

Spokesmodel or Bullfighter?

I get it.  Fat chicks need panties too.  But holy s*** people, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL?  8.75 foot waistline???  What the hell, have you never heard of exercise? Dieting?  Portion control?  I'm not saying you need to be supermodel thin.  I'm not saying you even have to join a gym or eat nothing but celery.  But take a walk every once in a while!  Instead of having two Big Macs, try just one for lunch today.  Maybe a glass of water instead of the 2-liter of soda you have with every breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack?

Chicken Sweaters?

Apparently everyone in the world is doing great.  How do I know this?  Because there's a group in England that's doing a very special kind of charity work this holiday season.  They're not volunteering at a local soup kitchen or ringing the Salvation Army bell in front of the mall.  They're not buying toys for orphans, giving blood, or even writing a check to the United Way. 

So how are these resourceful Brits helping the world become a better place?

Chicken Sweaters.

No, it's not the latest Lady Gaga fashion trend.  They're literally knitting sweaters... for chickens. Not coats for the homeless.  Not even blankets for the elderly.  Sweaters.  For chickens. 

Seriously, WTF?

Here's the full story.

WTF FTW!

When your high school superintendent doesn't get the joke, it makes the Wakefield Track and Field team sweatshirts that much more entertaining.

Look What the Rapist Dragged In?

Today on the Noon Lunch Whistle I got a request for two from Poison: "Fallen Angel" and "I Want Action."  Which led to the revelation that Bret "Rock of Love" Michaels may be condoning rape.

I've been listening to Poison for over 20 years.  Look What the Cat Dragged In and Open Up and Say Ahh... were two of the first cassettes I ever owned.  "I Want Action" was released as a single in 1987.  It's a great song about checking out the hot girls and wanting to get laid - something every straight guy in America can identify with.

But it wasn't until today that I noticed the following lyrics:

I can't wait to get my hands on them
I won't give up until they give in

Is it just me or did Bret Michaels just tell us all that he'll keep pressuring some girl to have sex until she finally says "yes"?  OK, maybe that's not so bad.  Lots of young horny guys ask their girlfriends for sex, the girls say no, so the guys wait and ask again later.  Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but you're still trying to get some.  Fine.  But then the following lines say this...

Now I'm not looking for a love that lasts
I need a shot and I need it fast
If I can't have her, I'll take her and make her.

Yep.  Bret Michaels just sang that if the girl says no, he'll kidnap and rape her.  WTF?  Am I the only one who's noticed this?
