Sloppy Seconds: Huckabee Rips off Boston, Paris Hilton's Pups, Pyrex Dildos, and Good Riddance to Bush

Is Mike Huckabee ripping off Boston (the band, not the city)? One former member thinks so.

Did you know that one is only allowed to own three dogs at a time in L.A.? Neither did we. Neither did Paris Hilton. Well, actually, she's just dumb and doesn't get them spayed and neutered.

Eco-friendly dildos are all the new rage. Pyrex??!? (Also, how come that girl gets free dildos and we don't? Shouldn't the casserole queen/sex blogger get a free Pyrex dildo and possibly one named after her?)

Say goodbye to Dubya with your own farewell video. We have a few things we'd like to say to him, ourselves.

Hot Chicks Dig Green Dudes

For millions of years women have used T & A to get what they want — when all else fails, of course. So next time that man who claims to have "simple needs" uses eighteen squares of toilet paper to wipe his ass, or throws his beer bottles in with the rest of the garbage, please direct his attention to hotchixdig.com.

Introduce him to Rebextreme, a brunette who says "be smart and start doing your part." If the gentleman prefers a blonde, there's Mary Jane, who likes "men who bike... men who eat fresh, seasonal produce... and men who care about animal welfare." Once you have his attention, you can teach him about carbon emissions and the effects of pesticides. Because really, the only thing hotter than a woman with a bike basket full of locally-grown produce is a man with a bike basket full of locally-grown produce.

And ladies, don't forget to do your part. You can add yourself to the Hot Chix roster.

(Thanks, Mandy!)

Disposable Underwear Leave No Panty Line, Infuriate Eco-Bloggers

Bryan Christian — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 20:09:00 GMT

We're tempted to make a crack about how the folks at GreenDaily are obviously joyless hippies because they're shocked -- SHOCKED! -- that a product like Nundies (that would be disposable, lo-pro panties) could even exist. However... um... ok, yeah, we're still tempted.

Here's the marketing shtick: Nundies are a one-time use, pantyless panty that adhere to the inside inseam of a woman's pants. Nundies are a great fashion solution product for women who want to go bare-down-there without the discomfort of itchy clothing. Nundies also save women from the embarrassment of tacky panty lines and from having to wear uncomfortable thongs.

LOL.
They retail five (um, well, I can't say pairs, but anyway) for $15. That's enough to buy a nice whole organic chicken. OK, maybe that's off track. How about two jugs of Seventh Generation laundry detergent to wash your underwear in? Or a few pairs of underwear from Target that you can wash hundreds of times in that detergent? Or you can just leave the darn $15 in your pocket for crying out loud.

Seriously, GreenDaily, you're totally right about them bring overpriced and underneeded. But you know what? With all that guilt math, you kind of make me want to buy some Nundies -- and I'm a dude.
