LLady Parking Only

This is NOT a joke.

A shopping center in China's Hebei province has built a car park with wider spaces and painted in pink and light purple to appeal to female tastes.

Official Wang Zheng said the car park was meant to cater to women's "strong sense of color and different sense of distance". UM OK???

The parking bays are one metre (3ft) wider than normal spaces, he said.

The Wanxiang-Tiancheng shopping centre had also "installed signs and security monitoring equipment that corresponded more to women's needs", he said.

Female parking attendants have been trained to help guide women drivers into their parking spaces. The bays also have extra lighting.

One Up Cat Calling Construction Workers, Like She Did

Nearly every woman in the whole wide world has experienced the whistles, cat calls, hoots and hollering from workers at construction sites around the world. Most of us choose to ignore these calls, turning up the music on our iPods, [pretend to] carry an in-depth convo on the phone or pick up the pace. Some of us yell back, perhaps follow up with hand gestures expressing our disgust, others storm a construction site NAKED screaming "who wants me?"

An Austrian woman took it upon herself to one up the builders who follow a "tradition" by "chatting up women" who pass their way. Running around the site naked, the construction workers' dreams came true, right? Nope, they fled and called the cops! Her arrest was captured on camera (see below image courtesy of ananova).

Bros Before Hos / Chicks Before Dicks

I can't help but laugh at these matching "bros before hos" tats (do believe it's Scott Campbell & Marc Jacobs). According to the Urban Dictionary, the term's connotation means screw your "jealous girlfriend, it's always cool to chill with your friends".

With that said, anyone down to get matching tats that read "chicks before dicks"?

It's Not Fair.



Sometimes it's just not fair. The video is pretty good, listen to the lyrics. It gets better...

Hate Your iPhone?


You're not the only one...

"Actually, the iPhone probably sips, like a lipsticky girl with a vodka drink. It usually does things in a cute way. Whatever. At 4 in the morning, I was in bed, fighting rage. I couldn’t stop thinking about that device’s tarty little face and those yapping “apps” you can download for it. The whole iPhone enterprise seemed to require so much attention, organization, explanation, praise, electricity. I know — I know: in the morning, Apple’s latest miracle machine would fill my palm with meaning and magic. So why couldn’t I contain my annoyance? I had no new-thing excitement. It dawned on me: I hated my iPhone."

The quote is from an entertainingly good read in the NY Times' Magazine about one person's experience with her iPhone. Full article here.
