Which Brain are you?
Filed Under answer, games, weird | 9 Comments
This spinning lady was posted on Weddingbee today and I just had to post it here! I’ve never seen this before but I think it’s really cool.
If you see the umm naked lady spinning clockwise then you are right-brained
If you see the lady spinning counter-clockwise then you are left-brained.
I see her spin counter-clockwise. I can’t wait to see Scott and see what way he sees her spin. Apparently some people can get her to switch. Sometimes if I only look at her legs they go clockwise for one rotation but then it’s back to counter-clockwise. Man I think I could stare at this for the rest of my day.
For more explanations see here: Left Brained vs. Right Brained
EDIT: I just saw her WHOLE BODY go clockwise for 3 roatations, then it was back to counter-clockwise.. I guess that means I am MOSTLY left-brained and a bit right-brained, but not when I want to be.

Only in New York could this happen.
A Manhattan bride was so upset about the colour and condition of her centerpieces (wilted?), she is suing the florist for breach of contract. The bride is also a lawyer and filed the suit herself, which explains a lot.
Let’s turn this into a Mastercard ad, shall we?
Flowers for your wedding day, paid for by your mother: $27,435.14
Restitution and damages sought from florist because they ‘weren’t right’: $400,000.00
You, indirectly labeled as a ‘Bridezilla’, on the homepage of CNN.com: Priceless.
There are some things that money can’t buy. For everything else, there’s a lawsuit.

Have You Bought Any Crap Lately?

FENGHUA, CHINA—Chen Hsien, an employee of Fenghua Ningbo Plastic Works Ltd., a plastics factory that manufactures lightweight household items for Western markets, expressed his disbelief Monday over the “sheer amount of shit Americans will buy.”
OK, it’s The Onion, but isn’t there some truth to it? As a society, we have soooo much stuff! I have things I can’t bear to throw away, although I have no idea where/when I got it. Then, when I do decide to throw it away, I feel guilty for helping fill some landfill somewhere.
”I hear that Americans can buy anything they want, and I believe it, judging from the things I’ve made for them,” Chen said. “And I also hear that, when they no longer want an item, they simply throw it away. So wasteful and contemptible.”
Essentially…yes. Unless it can be sold on E-bay. Which creates packaging waste and has a bigger carbon footprint than you might imagine, considering the exhaust from vehicles used to transport the item to its destination.
Maybe it’s time to simplify.
