Vive La Poutine!

Poutine.

The Canadian holy trinity of fries, gravy and cheese curds.

Not just for laughs.

So take that, Steve.

Happy Birthday, Geoff!

Geoff on hols in Ibiza


Happy birthday to our Geoff: a self-described “wet blanket” from Kent, England.

Geoff and his wife Betty have been loyal Infomaniac readers since day one and seem not to have suffered any ill effects as a result.

Geoff has the burden of being the only person with whom I can call upon to discuss football. Proper football that is… “soccer” to those of us in Canada and the U.S.

Geoff’s birthday celebrations would be oh so much sweeter if only West Ham United would score some goals. Come on you Irons!

Leave a birthday greeting here in the comments for Geoff or over at his blog (Contains Mild Peril). With the way West Ham’s season is going, he could use some good wishes.

Todger-Shaped Tree Gives Neighbours the Willies

Yorkshireman Alan Parkin (it’s always a Yorkshireman, isn’t it?) upset his neighbours in Penistone by erecting a phallic-shaped Christmas tree.

REGINA: Chlamydia Capital of Canada

Go on. Today’s post title is asking for it. REGINA: Chlamydia Capital of Canada.

Turn it into verse. Or worse. Or create your own slogan.

Planned Parenthood Regina has launched an STI awareness campaign using humour and directness on billboards, buses and bathroom advertisements around Regina, Saskatchewan.

Blogging Roundup

Welcome to a new weekly feature on Infomaniac called “Blogging Roundup.” Actually, that’s a shite title. Feel free to suggest something better.

But now, let’s look over the previous week or so of your posts and see what you lot have been up to.




Steve models the Freakin’ Green Elf Shorts (Click on pic to make his bits bigger)


Steve & Carly: Steve surrenders the much coveted Freakin’ Green Elf Shorts to MJ. I WON THE FREAKIN’ GREEN ELF SHORTS! I WON THE FREAKIN’ GREEN ELF SHORTS! Thanks Steve, you southern slut, you. The reality hasn’t set in yet. I’m still shocked and stunned by the honour. Not to mention the upcoming humiliation of modeling the shorts on my blog. If you want to see my winning “poetic” entry entitled “A Fag Hag’s Christmas,” click here and scroll way down. Read everybody else’s entries too.




Tazzy and Piggy and their copyrighted mugs

Piggy and Tazzy: Changed their blog template AGAIN. And as of the late hour I posted this, the template is completely fucked. Have it fixed by morning! Quit messing with a good thing you twats! You get on my last good nerve. In other news, they went to Tazzy’s Chrimbo party. Posted pics of party which are impossible to Photoshop as “copyright” is scrawled across everyone’s face. In fact, the only useful thing those northern poofs did last week was to introduce us to new blogger Little Amie.


Midget Arse: Went to her Chrimbo party with Pig and Taz but couldn’t be bothered to post pics or fill us in on the gossip. Probably still hungover.

SID: SID’s piece of crap computer finally conked out. After much downloading of porn, the fecking hunk of junk exploded. We won’t be hearing from that Oirish bastard for a while ‘til his computer is back from the shop. Enjoy the peace until he returns.

Awaiting: Her kids had explosive diarrhea. And her husband’s cousin keeps calling from prison … on a CELL PHONE!




Maidink’s alter ego


Maidink: Got ultra high speed Internet and decided she’s a genius. I say we take a vote on that.

Tickers: Had yet another sexual identity crisis and is now signing his emails “Tickersoid the poof.”

Frobisher: Frobi appeared in this month’s “Best of British” as Playmate of the Month… hot ‘n’ hung hunks in the UK! Take it off Frobi!




Chris Evans


Kaz: Got pissed off at BBC Radio “personality” Chris Evans.


First Nations: Conducted a pictorial tour of her spare bedroom and her husband’s garage.

Homo Escapeons: Police shootout on his street in Winterpeg. Yes, guns in Canada!

Within Without: Displayed his footwear collection, including the Perry Como lounging slippers.


And finally, apologies to those who aren’t covered in this week’s installment of “Blogging Roundup.” As usual, I was overcome by laziness and a bottle of Irish whiskey. Tune in next week at this time for another installment of “Blogging Roundup.”

I WON THE FREAKIN’ GREEN ELF SHORTS!!!

Thumb Sucking Adults

Victoria “Posh” Beckham – either sucking thumb or inducing vomiting (uncertain)



For all those years you thought you were the only person on the planet thumbsucking at your age. Well you finally found the right place!

Men: Make Your Own Underwear

Are you a guy who loves something cute?

I make lacy and fancy underwear. All for boys and cute men.
These handmade underwear and lingerie are decorated with frilled lace and ribbons.
So graceful, pretty and fancy. Not sexy.

My underwear is not for sale.
If you want to make one by yourself, I would help you at DIY page.

Underwear maker Runo of Snake Charmer Men’s Underwear shows you how to make your own knickers.

Cocksox

The Australians produced Wonderjock. And here they are, “down under” again with yet another way for men to lift and separate.

Fellas, pack more into your package with Cocksox.

No rings! No slings!

Do you know anyone who would actually wear these? Is this something you’d buy as a stocking stuffer?

I just like saying the brand name.

If I Needed You

Skip this posting if you don’t like any or all of the following:

1) Emmylou Harris
2) Steve Earle
3) Townes Van Zandt
4) Mushy songs

But I like it so it stays.

If I Needed You, written by the late Townes Van Zandt and performed as a duet by Emmylou Harris and Steve Earle, finishes with an appearance by Townes…



If you needed me I would come to you
I would swim the seas, for to ease your pain

Stupid Places You’ve Put Your Tongue

Every Canadian has done this and yes, it hurts…

In sub-zero temperatures, do not stick your tongue on a cold metal pole.

An 11-year-old boy in Kelowna, British Columbia learned the hard way that poles are not Popsicles when his tongue became fused to the pole of a stop sign.

An RCMP officer was flagged down by a group of kids, poured water on the boy’s tongue and freed him from the pole.

Why does your tongue get stuck to metal in the winter? Um, because you’re stupid? Well there’s a scientific explanation.

Not only have I had my tongue stuck to a fence in winter, I’ve also had my tongue stuck in a pop bottle.

And the rest of you? Stupid places you’ve put your tongue?
