As a woman, I don't spend too much time hanging out over at askmen.com. Maybe I should start, though, because people who frequent the site are getting valuable life lessons hand over fist in the form of the askmen Top 10. Today's topic? Subtle Ways to Tell Her She's Getting Fat.

According to askmen.com, one way to subtly tell your female partner she's packed on a few too many lbs (you know, besides having a conversation with her about it) is to "Sabotage her chair" by removing some of the slats or screws. That way, when she sits down on the chair and it breaks, you can shame her into thinking it was because she's too fat! It's a win-win! (I am kidding.)

Read more about this Top 10 list (and learn more ways to subtly tell your lady that she's a "grumpy lard-ass") after the jump!

(Oh, and in case it was unclear, the image above is from the askmen.com piece. Thanks, guys!!!)

Big Advertisers Are Watching You

Love / Shove post by Kelsey Wallace on February 3, 2009 - 5:19pm; tagged advertising, technology, WTF?.
tveye.jpg I am not sure if the media-savvy among you have already heard of this phenomenon, but apparently the newest trend in super-creepy-and-invasive advertising is ads that watch you watch them. This new technology, made by a company called Quividi, uses face-tracking technology (and yes, I guess that is a thing) to determine the age, race, and gender of the person viewing the ad. Then, the ad may change based on who is watching. WTF?

Shot through the vagina, and Rock of Love Bus is to blame.

Love / Shove post by Kelsey Wallace on January 20, 2009 - 11:36pm; tagged alcohol, Bret Michaels, reality tv, Rock of Love, vagina shots, VH1, WTF?.
Just in case you are tired out from celebrating Obama's inauguration today (although if you aren't tired of celebrating you should totally watch this video) we thought we would bring you a little diversion. So let's take a minute and think not about this historic day and how happy we are to have a president who is not an international embarrassment, but instead about Rock of Love Bus. More specifically about the scene from the first episode where Nikki takes a shot from Gia's vagina. (Hey, we said we were going to give you a diversion, right?)

Dude Plays Like A Lady?

Love / Shove post by Kelsey Wallace on January 8, 2009 - 12:24pm; tagged gender, NBA Basketball, Pau Gasol, WTF?.

I checked my "gender" updates on Google News this morning (you know me, I love gender news) and found this article on NBA basketball player Pau Gasol. The article is from a sports website called The Bleacher Report, and the headline reads, "After Tonight's Game the NBA Orders Pau Gasol to Take Gender Test."

Versace: You got served!

Love / Shove post by Kelsey Wallace on December 12, 2008 - 5:22pm; tagged fashion, Versace, workplace discrimination, WTF?.

Versace ad

Turns out Versace is not just weird and sexually creepy in their print ads (see above), they're also weird and sexually creepy toward their employees! Or one in particular, anyway. Former Versace aide Fay Rodriguez sued the fashion giant on Wednesday for gender discrimination, saying she was forced to relay sexually explicit voicemail messages and was fired when she complained.

WTF?

I love rock, and roll, and. . . Twilight?

Love / Shove post by Kelsey Wallace on December 3, 2008 - 1:40pm; tagged Joan Jett, Kristin Stewart, Twilight, WTF?.

Stewart and Jett

So, in the latest Twilight-related news story, teen queen Kristin Stewart is going to play rocker Joan Jett in a new Runaways biopic. Is Stewart cool enough to pull this off? Is Twilight going to take over all of our lives and turn each of us into a bland-yet-attractive teenage vampire? Weigh in after the jump!

Consumerism turns deadly

Bitch on Wheels post by Debbie Rasmussen on November 28, 2008 - 3:34pm; tagged consumer culture, consumerism, Wal-Mart, WTF?.

A Long Island Wal-Mart worker was trampled to death this morning as over 2,000 shoppers pushed and shoved their way through the doors at 4:55 a.m., five minutes before the doors were set to open.

Cookie Monsters

Love / Shove post by Jonanna Widner on November 12, 2008 - 5:53pm; tagged WTF?.
I found an excellent little item on Salon's ladies-centric blog "Broadsheet"—an entry about, uh, cookie cutters that are in the shape of fetuses.
