The Magic (Wand) of Christmas

Use this magic wand to remind others to keep six feet apart...

And now, it's time to don your Mistletoe Belt Buckles...


As we get into the swing of the holidays.

 

Merry Christmas, Bitches! Stay safe and healthy for feck's sake.

A Canuck in Crocs

Our fair country, Canada, is north of USA.
Our Maritimes are lovely and our prairies give us hay.
You might think you Yankees are better than us Canucks.
Well, we don't need no microchips inside our hockey pucks.

Click to enlarge.
We're proud to be Canadian.
We're awfully nice to strangers, our manners be our curse.
It's cool in many ways to be Canadian.
We won't say that we're better, it's just that we're less worse.
- The Arrogant Worms

Justin Bieber launched his own line of Crocs in October. They are sold out. 

It's time to retire the the Proud Canadian song.

Happy Thanksgiving

We here at Infomaniac wish you American Bitches a Happy Thanksgiving. In memory of our friend LX aka Mr. Lax, we present his signature dish: TRADITIONAL CRANBERRIES.

As Mr. Lax said, "This is my signature dish for both Thanksgiving and Christmas as it is the perfect companion to turkey. I suggest beets as a vegetarian option."

Another Year, Another Garden Event

We've come to the END of another Annual Garden Photos Event...

We wish to thank Mr. DeVice for hosting the 10th Annual Garden Photos Event. His creativity and passion for horticulture made the event a success. Click here to see Mr. DeVice's garden, and follow the links in that post for any submissions you missed from other Infomaniac Bitches.

You did a splendid job, Mr. DeVice!

The Mistress will no longer be hosting this event so please step forward if you would like to take over for the 11th Annual Garden Photos Event, next year.

You'll find all your favourites, including Jon's back passage, Mistress Maddie's rosebud, Dinah's down-under-jungle, Mitzi's Vaseline (wot?), and more to come. Head over there, now.

The 10th Annual Garden Photos Event

The TENTH Annual Garden Photos Event has begun! Formerly hosted here on Infomaniac, the capable and green-thumbed Mr. DeVice is now "the host with the most" of this popular event. 

Click here for the first submission which just happens to be The Mistress's gigantic sunflower. 

Although these sunflowers bear a striking resemblance to The Mistress's sunflowers, they are not, in fact, The Mistress's sunflowers. Nor is that The Mistress.

There will be more entries in the Garden Photo Event so be sure to visit Mr. DeVice as updates happen. 

Many thanks to Mr. DeVice for graciously taking over the hosting of this annual event. He's done a splendid job.

Here Comes Summer

The Mistress is making the most of the longer, hotter days and will catch up with you Bitches later.


Note: If you're wondering what happened to the previous post, I removed it because of an image of someone sleeping in their car. Considering what happened in Atlanta the day after I posted it, (the victim was sleeping in his car), I decided to delete that post because of the image of someone sleeping in their car.

Even though that post had nothing to do with that terrible incident, I considered it in bad taste to leave the post up.

Covidiots

This was the scene yesterday at Toronto's Trinity Bellwoods Park...

Click to enlarge photos.

An estimated TEN THOUSAND people crowded into the 37 acre park. To give you an idea of the size, Central Park in New York City is 840 acres, and Kew Gardens in London, England is 300 acres.

Recently, Toronto and other Canadian cities reopened their park amenities after a two month closure due to the pandemic. A caution was issued to limit the size of your group, and to remain six feet apart. 

This is proof that Canadians are just as stupid as everyone else in the world.

Fashion Transitioning Between Seasons

When transitioning between your spring and summer wardrobe, what do you wear?

Canadian Ingenuity

Daniel Rotsztain made a video of himself walking through some of Toronto's busiest streets while wearing a machine that ensures he stays at least two metres (six feet) from others.

In order to avoid physical contact with structures, cars and other people, he's forced to venture out into the middle of the street.

Click here for the full story and the video clip.  

I don't know about you Bitches but The Mistress could really use one of these social distance machines. How is your social distancing going?

Handshaking

Experts agree that handshaking needs to stop; not just during the current pandemic but forever more.



Dr. Anthony Fauci says, “I don’t think we should ever shake hands ever again, to be honest with you. Not only would it be good to prevent coronavirus disease, it probably would decrease instances of influenza dramatically in this country.


We here at the Infomaniac Medical Clinic have long avoided shaking hands whenever possible as we view human beings as walking petri dishes. 

Where do you Bitches stand on handshaking? Do you shake? Will you continue to shake when this blows over? 

And what do you do when someone extends their hand and you want to decline a handshake?

Gardening - the Brian May Way

"I managed to rip my Gluteus Maximus to shreds in a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening," the Queen star explained.


Story here.

Let this be a warning to you over-enthusiastic gardening Bitches.

Toilet Paper

Before you hoard, check this handy toilet paper calculator to see how much toilet paper you really need.
[Photo via]
Sliders on the calculator alter the amount of toilet rolls you have, and the amount of times you go to the toilet everyday. 

There are also advanced settings which alter wipes per trip, sheets per wipe, sheets on roll, and the length of your quarantine. So be sure to click on the "Advanced Options" feature.

The average user has 500% more toilet paper than they need for quarantine.

New Product

The Infomaniac House of Beauty and the Infomaniac Medical Clinic combine to bring you a product for our times, seen here modelled by Miss Scarlet...


Before we can market it to the masses, it needs a name. It also needs a promotional blurb; something that will convince the public to buy it. 

Suggestions?

Reasons to Celebrate

Eat me!


Help yourselves to the baked goods, Bitches.

It seems I'd forgotten that March 23rd is the 14th anniversary of this blog.

More importantly, I completely forgot that March 22nd was Mr. DeVice's birthday. 

Let's stuff ourselves silly, in celebration.

Still Here, Continued

Apologies for my absence. I thought my computer problems were fixed but I was wrong.
 
Also, I have this which means I have a very low level of energy. This is an ongoing condition. I've had it for a long time but didn't mention it. However, it's nothing to worry about. I'll continue to blog from time to time. 


Stay healthy out there, Bitches!
