Mapping Stereotypes: The Most Popular Names In Europe

We are now around that time when a lot of babies start to show up at our doorsteps – you know, because of the order you made in the summer last year; the storks are really busy around this time of year, dodging bullets and delivering babies.

So, I’m sure you’ve come up with a bunch of names for your unborn baby, and I’m pretty sure they are awesome names, for you. No doubt Gaylord is a perfectly good name for any child, living in the 18^th century; but in this century that name would only get your child an excellent ass-kicking and a trauma for the rest of its life.

You want to be creative and give your child a name one can’t pronounce without bending the tongue and swelling bubbles? By all means, please do that. That name will probably be popular in the next century anyway. But before you ruin your kid’s life, here is a list of names trending right now:

    For girls:

Photoshop Is For The Weak. Awesome Pieces Of Art Made With MS Paint

So, I heard you do stuff with images on Photoshop. Manipulation and such… Good for you. Now, please allow me to put your awesome works to shame with these excellently awesome pieces of art made with MS Paint. You read right, MS Paint, that program that you used back in the days to make poorly drawn houses and stick figure and to which every painting was an abstract work. Please be baffled.

Apocalyptic Pin-Up Calendar: A Touch Of Sensuality At The End Of The World

As it is constantly proven by the advertisers, nothing captivates more the attention of a person then something sexual. This is generally speaking. Pick the most boring thing, like bingo, for example, and add striptease to it and you’ll see how much fun it gets.

A good way of making people learn goes on the same method: sexual content. Games work too, but sexual stuff get more attention. How about using that to warn the human kind about the apocalyptic futures that awaits? Andrew Tarusov brings us Apocalypse Tomorrow 2012 Calendar, a calendar to remember us the possibilities of the apocalyptic futures after this year, that is said to be the last one, again.

I wonder if this is gonna make us try and avoid the apocalyptic future or hasten it instead.

The unusual and original calendars don't stop here; get amazed, or not, with What Counts Is The Inner Beauty. X-Rayed Pin-Up Girls.

Stay tune on facebook to get your unusual calendar first-hand.

What Does This Letter Remind You Of? The Alphabet Of Horror

I'm always concerned with the education of the kids these days, specially because the attention spam seems to have dramatically shortened in the last dacades, wich makes those kids' brain a kind leaky well. So, we need more efficient ways of teaching, ways that make the knowledge a kind of sticky gum that remains on the brain forever, like a trauma. Here I present you a very simple and definitive way of sticking knowledge on those ready-to-learn kids. Suggestion: make a song; it will be unforgattable. The merit goes to Jared von Hindman.
