It’s been a few months since we last checked in on Pinterest. When we first started hearing about this little site that used “pinning” to share ideas, interesting odds and ends, and cool stuff found around the web, we thought it was the next step in streamlining all those tidbits people post on Facebook and Twitter that may work better to serve an audience already primed to readily accept those things we once cut from magazines or gleaned from a personal email.

True Blood is the worst, guys. My boyfriend said last season, “Man, they’re not even trying to hide the fact that this show is just weird creature porn.” Well put, boyfriend! Well put. Anyway, the only way I was going to continue watching this mess was if I had the opportunity to point out how terrible it is.

Dr. George Murray Levick, a scientist attached to the 1910-1912 Scott Antarctic Expedition, observed an entire breeding cycle of the Adélie penguins at Cape Adare. He was shocked to witness males trying to have sex with dead, presumably frozen, females as well as other male penguins. He also noted that males would engage in sexual coercion of females and chicks, occasionally killing them.
These findings so disturbed Levick that he wrote his notes in Greek, so that only educated men could decipher them. Once back in Great Britain, he published a paper in English titled Natural History of the Adélie Penguin, but the penguin’s mating habits were deemed indecent and removed.
50 years later, Dr. Levick’s original notes were found among the artifacts of the Scott Expedition and the secrets of the Adélie penguins have been exposed.
Last night, the stars of the Great White Way took to the red carpet to honor themselves and their superior thespianism above all other artforms. Purple Rain reigned supreme, though some pulled it off better than others. For an example of how not to do the royal color, see after the jump. Continue reading
