Overnight open thread – “Ministry of Innuendo and Things That Should Really be in the Sidebar” (genghis)

Still trying to clear out all the backlog of tips, chicken soup recipes and suggestions on the most painless methods of suicide from the last 3 or 4 days. (Many thanks to LauraW for the latter)

Item #1: From ABC (again, the Australian one). You want a busty story? Well here’s one for you: Busty Women Win Bra Battle.

” A British department store has been forced to change the way it prices underwear after almost 13,000 people signed an online protest against its policy of charging customers more for large bras. The Facebook campaign was started by 26-year-old Beckie Williams, who wears a 30G!!!bra, after Marks and Spencer failed to respond to her complaints about the two-pound ($4) extra charge on bras bigger than a DD cup. The group, Busts 4 Justice, condemned the policy as criminally unfair and urged "busty ladies" to "join forces to end this blatant discrimination".

Fuckin’ eh sister! Here’s a protest movement I can get behind. Or in front of. (Sorta’ depends on which side the clasp is.) Ms. Williams, I salute you in your stand against bustism and will support you (and your rather sizeable orbs) in any way I possibly can. You carry a heavy burden which you shouldn’t have to bear alone.

Item #2: Might as well stick with ABC which also has an article titled Copulating Corpses Spark Outrage in Berlin. Probably more up Krakatoa’s alley since it involves the dead.

“An exhibit showing two corpses having sex has triggered uproar among German politicians. German anatomist Gunther von Hagens is famous for his global Body Worlds shows of preserved human cadavers. He will now be displaying skinless corpses, including a "plastinated" man and woman having sex, from Thursday (local time) in Berlin.”

Item #3: More Popular Mechanics: 100 Skills Every Man Should Know. I’ll just leave it at that and you can decide what should be stricken or added to the list. And I’m sure the female morons (all 1 of you) might have something to add as well.
