Scary Stupid, Scary, & Just Stupid

Today's Top News

There's nothing funny about today's news. I got a serious WTH!?  moment after reading this:

A New England school district has approved a measure that will provide free condoms to elementary school students and direct teachers not to comply with parental wishes to the contrary.


Seriously?  I'm not old fashion by any means but since when did this become ok?  Do schools feel like they can do whatever they want because parents have become dependent on them?  I know I have issues with the schools my children go to but they don't even come close to the above.


The article went on to say:


School superintendent Beth Singer supported the instruction aspect of the rule – explaining that younger boys and girls might not be experienced in such adult matters.


We’re talking about younger kids,” she told the newspaper. “They have questions they need answered on how to use them, when to use them.”

Please tell me that I'm not the only one that thinks these people have no business around children!

I saw the above posted to a friend's status today.  It's from some game called FrontierVille.  Now in all honesty I can't say that I have any knowledge about the game so I don't know how my friend managed to scare away that bear but my best guess is that she invited him to be a friend on FarmerVille, Mafia Wars and Pet Land.

Puppy Love or Doggie Style?

Today's Top News

It seems that the NAACP thinks Hallmark has a racist card out there.  *raising an eyebrow* I had no idea that there were three K's at the end of HallmarKKK.  There are times when there should be true outrage and others when things are just outrageous.  The card says something about black holes and this offended some black women so Hallmark has pulled the card.  You can read all about it here.


Today's New Time Waster

One of my friend's posted about how she needed help for her seven year old, on some game, to unlock his pet.  She said it would take seven friends to help or that she feared he'd sneak her credit card to unlock the darn thing.  My first thought was that if one of my kids took a credit card without my permission they'd sooner want to live through Revelations than the wrath that would come from their mom!

Being the nice person I am though, I clicked it and found, Happy Pets.  It's some weird game where you get pets.  I had to feed them and scoop the litter box, now that was fun!  Then my pets grew and it was time to have some puppies!  Oh yeah, I get a screen asking me to give my pets some "love potion" and when I did a huge heart covered them up and some funky "love music" came on so my pets could get it on in private while I waited. 

I did a this screen capture. 


I'm surprised that the animal activists haven't gotten onto this game yet.  Is this responsible breading?  Didn't Bob Barker want us to spay and neuter our pets?
