Photography

Ms. McTurtlePants

Shelly

I did some mowing this evening after work, and was rewarded by a visit from a very disgruntled neighbor. I can’t blame him her. I’d be pissed off, too, if someone covered me in grass clippings then took my picture.

Miss McTurtlePants was trying to get through my fence. I was afraid, if she managed to get into the yard while I was mowing, that she’d get hurt, so I picked her up and stuck her in a Rubbermaid tub while I worked. During one of my breaks, I got my camera and took some pictures. She was unamused.

I also saw the world’s smallest bunny baby. He was about the size of a roma tomato, ears and all. He was too young to really understand the art of running away, so I got to get within a foot of him. My camera was inside, alas, so I didn’t get any photos. I got to bask in the cuteness, though, which was nice.

Yoplait Sucks

Shelly

Why does Yoplait suck? Well, there are a lot of reasons, starting with the fact that it is overly sweet and of a mucous-like consistency. I personally find the taste and texture to be thoroughly offensive; however, they are not as offensive as Yoplait’s newest commercial. In it, Yoplait asks you, the consumer, to consider their yogurt as a tool in your perpetual weight loss arsenal. Cuz, you know, all women are always on a diet because all women are fat and disgusting, no matter how objectively UN-fat they might actually be.

Case in point: the woman in this Yoplait commercial. She’s so thin that the daylight shining from between her thighs is nearly blinding, and she has a washboard sternum. But, yet, she’s so scared of her big, fat ass being seen in public that she eagerly subjects herself to Yoplait Candied Snot.
