bacon handerpants contest

Just a reminder that today is the last day to win the two stupidest products ever made—the Mr. Bacon board game and a pair of Handerpants from Archie McPhee. Just tweet this post or anything mentioning @NerdApproved and you are automatically entered to win. The more you tweet, the more chances you have.

Now you can have two pieces of flair on your lapel—an American Flag pin and a Steam Radiator pin. God bless the USA / steam radiators!

Snakeskin Lips Clutch

This would look totally natural in 1988, along with the latest Poison album, hairspray, high heels, fishnets, a feather boa and the street.

happy-thoughts

If the airline is going to drop your plane into the ocean for a crash landing, the least they can do is to make your exit fun. The last thing you remember of that harrowing experience will be the fun ride under the clown rather than the near death experience it was.
