For a 24/7 fitness club, the whole hours thing is pretty hilarious. Fail.

Vancouver Aquarium Goes SpongeBob?

Absolutely loving the fact that the Vancouver Aquarium is advertising a sponge who lives in a pineapple under the sea instead of, you know, real sea life or whatever. For the best given this kind of thing. But can you imagine how awful the aquarium will be in the mornings this summer?

Lauren Conrad Has Written 6 Books

Wow, so our banal cultural landmark, The Hills, lamely bowed out last night - I mean, no Spencer and Heidi in the Finale? What were they thinking? They must be in serious Lohan territory if they aren't being used for that kind of spectacular media frenzy. My bad, to be fair Spencer did try to sneak in dressed as an old man. Although the last shot of Brody Jenner watching Kristin Cavallarri leave and then the backdrop is pull up and the camera pulls out to reveal him on a studio lot was pretty funny - what reality? Finally seemed to be having fun saying so. Love that they owned its scripted-ness.

But what really floored me was during the post-game show and interview with "the girl who started it all." It seems that Lauren Conrad has written 6 goddamn books. SIX! 5 of them are Novels. In hardcover and everything. This is past her three novel deal she first signed. incredible. Unbelievable. Does Mel Gibson know about this? He'd probably make a call if he did.

Sigh.

Michael Corleone Really Loves Cofee

Al Pacino takes time from yelling or whatever on screen to talk about how much he likes coffee to the people of Australia. Guess they made him an offer he couldn't refuse? Too much? (via Ad Rants)

Mayor Gregor Robertson Discovers the political gaffe

Nice to see Mayor Gregor Robertson finally exposed as the foul mouthed idiotarian that we suspected him to be all along.

Yes, Mr. Robertson we have bigger things to worry about. Like our chickens in our backyards, screwing up a proper street food program, turning every road into a biking lane, and the blessed rebranding of Vancouver as Green City.
