You were supposed to block them, not join them

from here and here

I block ads because I hate ads. If an adblocker makes ads that is not going to make me want to use that adblocker - quite the opposite, in fact.

That's gonna be a nope from me, dawg

from here and here

If the NSA and CIA are blocking ads, maybe disabling adblock isn't such a good idea after all. Maybe the advertising industry needs to clean up their act so that the government isn't pinning a giant hazard label on them..

Lock and lobe

from here and here (image source)

I suppose this could still be taken by force, but it'll be messy and it would still have that annoying lock attached.

Aww, How Swe... Wait A Minute

I would say that's a clever way to hide your booze but people are bound to start thinking there's something wrong with you if you're kissing your baby too much, you lush.

What? No Disinfectant?

found on izismile

Have you ever had a computer that was so messed up that you didn't even want to touch it so you hosed it down instead? Maybe you should exercise more control over where your computer goes, then.

I Could Easily Find Out What's In There But I Don't Think I Want To

from here (source image)

Maybe it's just used as a latch instead of a lock? Maybe? Or maybe our intrepid photographer was lucky to get away.

Now the ladies can get a feeling for what it's like for men trying to use urinals.

You Know Security Is Backwards When...

What kind of a world do we live in if guns are a viable container for smuggling candy bars?

Must We Share Everything?

Apparently this was a stall at the Sochi Winter Olympic Games. I don't think I want to know what the designer was thinking.

When Clocks Are Outlawed Who Will Serve Time?

from here (source article)

The Internet is abuzz with the story of the 14 year old boy who was arrested, cuffed, and interrogated (apparently without a legal guardian present?) because some idiots in authority felt scared by a clock that he made and only ever referred to as a clock. Check the #IstandwithAhmed hashtag on twitter for more opinions and details.

Repeat after me, people: If it only ever gets called "a clock" and tells time like a clock, then it's a clock - and making clocks is not a crime.

How To Make A Facial Recognition System Cry

I could definitely see a facial recognition system getting confused by this. Good job bearded guy.

Apparently police militarization isn't just a problem in the United States. This picture apparently shows police in the Canadian city of Windsor.

Not Available In Stores? I Wonder Why?



As strange as this ad is (and the idea of wearing a rubber thong for additional protection during sex is plenty strange), the strangest part is this appears to be an actual legitimate product you can buy (but only online). There are more videos on their site, this is just their "Official Infomercial".

The Bubble Boy's Car

This may protect it from the wind and rain (which it clearly needs) but it definitely won't protect it against theft or vandalism (which proper garages actually do help with).

Tell Me Again How You Take My Security Seriously

found on the meta picture

This is definitely not how you verify you're talking to the right person. If it's not the right person, what are they going to say? "No"? Of course not. This makes me glad I'm not a customer of this company.

Being A Whistleblower Blows

found on the meta picture

What is it with the United States and whistle blowers? The incentives are so perverse you'd almost think the authorities didn't want to hear about corruption and abuse among their ranks.

I Guess The Friendly Skies Weren't Friendly Enough

I know people want their privacy, but they need to do more than lift their left ass cheek in order to find it.

The Earliest Stages Of The Robocop Program

found on the meta picture

This seems like the kind of defense you could circumvent simply by shouting "look out behind you!". Maybe that's why it never caught on.

Is There A Problem Officer?

from here (source article)

On the one hand, it's kind of disturbing that someone thought this was a good idea. On the other hand, at least the police know who to keep a close eye on.

The Right To Bare Chocolates

Ever get the feeling your protective efforts are wasted on the wrong things? Are chocolate eggs with toys inside really more dangerous than assault rifles?
