That Time Listerine Claimed It Was Good For Cleaning the Vagina

c6olohst5fpljaeewaib.jpg


Before Listerine found its true commercial calling as a mouthwash, it was a general purpose antiseptic meant to be used on cuts, sore throats, dandruff, and, most horrifying of all, down there. "It possesses great penetrating power," touts the ad!

I came across this ad in a Duke University archive while researching my article on how advertisements has shaped our daily hygiene habits. Listerine, especially, ran a hugely successful campaign educating Americans about "halitosis," a hitherto unfamiliar ailment. In 1932, when this feminine hygiene ad was published according to archive, Listerine was already well on its way to becoming a popular mouthwash. Apparently, they still had designs on other slices of the hygiene market, too.

The ad in its full, terrifying glory is below. I don't want to imagine what women of the 1930s were using if Listerine could plausibly be a "gentle, safe" alternative.

Pat Robertson Says Demons Can Curse Your Unborn Child Through Facebook

[YT]X_4PAWDXAho[/YT]

Every morning, amateur Nostradamus impersonator and otherwise horrible human Pat Robertson answers your questions about keeping the faith in a world gone to hell. One way to do that? Stop posting ultrasounds on Facebook, lest "some cultist" or "coven" curse your unborn child through the awesome powers of social media. Zuckerberg what have you wrought.

This little bit of advice came in response to a question from a concerned grandma-to-be, whose daughter was sharing her newfound joy with the people she loves and cares about. Which is abhorrent:

There are demons and there are evil people in the world. You post a picture like that and some cultist gets hold of it or a coven and they begin muttering curses against an unborn child. This business of posting the most intimate parts of your body on Facebook, I just can't see it. To me, it's abhorrent. It ain't necessarily unbiblical, it's just abhorrent.

So, boys and girls, if a demon tries to friend you on Facebook, do not accept. Whether or not Beelzebub's untiring and devoted henchmen can access your immortal soul through Instagram, however, remains to be seen.

Lysol (yes, that Lysol) also had a similar "hygenic" cleaning use at one time.

He's responsible for so many hysterical outbreaks of witches, demons and devil "attacks" that I am still surprised people believe anything that spews forth from his unholy mouth. Anyone with this much obsession over the occult must somehow be connected to them.
 
Facebook Video Shows Toddler Performing Sex Act on Teen Girl

uj41avf3p0ougheqt2ix.jpg


A 14-year-old girl in Orangeburg County, S.C. was charged with criminal sexual misconduct with a minor after she posted a video to Facebook of a toddler performing a sex act on her, The State reports.

"Multiple law enforcement agencies in the county were swamped with calls Thursday when a video was shared on Facebook," Orangeburg County Sheriff Leroy Ravenell told The State.

"Our officers responded to a concerned citizen who provided information about the juvenile and the incident location. Our investigation indicates the teen recorded the video and sent it to a male friend," Ravenell said.

The 14-year-old girl has been detained. WLTX-TV reports that the teenager told officials she was drunk when she filmed the video and didn't remember making it.

According to The State, the Department of Social Services has taken two other children in the home into custody as well.

College Administrator Offered Financial Aid for Sex

bcnmwpx0rdhchpx6pncx.jpg


A former financial aid officer was arrested in Idaho this week after police say he solicited college students for sex through Craigslist, promising them grant money in return, The Spokesman-Review reports.

According to police, they first became aware of the scheme after the FBI alerted them to a Craigslist "casual encounters" post aimed at students attending North Idaho College. From KHQ:

FBI Agents and Spokane Detectives working internet crimes responded to ads that said "Hello, I have a proposition for NIC students." The message detectives received was "I have some grant money that I can get applied to your account. I just look for some fun in return."

With the approval of NIC President Joe Dunlap Coeur d' Alene officers created a fake student account and responded to the NIC ads again. The response officers got back was the same as before, "I have some extra grant money to allocate. Just looking for some potential fun on the side." Officers asked what they would have to do and were told, "I'm completely open. Sex, oral, etc...watching."

33-year-old Joseph M. Bekken ultimately deposited a total of $587 in grants into the student account before being detained at a meet-up arranged by police, KXLY reports.

The former NIC Financial Aid Director now faces charges of attempted misuse of public funds, attempted procurement of prostitution, burglary, using a computer in a scheme to defraud and bribery.

The Time a Cop Pretended His Arm Was a Vagina to Bust a Cyber-Perv

nbccptzwr3aglgg78g7q.jpg


Sometimes the long arm of the law clutches you with nothing more than brute force and brawn. And sometimes that arm folds back onto itself, posing as an underage girl's vagina, in order to trap and incriminate an internet predator.

Though figures like Hunter Moore and cesspools like Anon-IB have seized a large share of attention in the "revenge porn" world, Motherless.com remains a force. The site isn't explicitly dedicated to publishing stolen nudes a la IsAnyoneUp.com, but it's certainly as noxious. Across message boards, chat rooms, and vast, categorized pages, Motherless' swarm of fans share lifted pictures of ex-girlfriends, classmates, or just plain strangers—many of them underage. From there, the pictures drift across the web, often accompanied by names or other personally identifying information tagged to the victim, while the site itself operates with relative impunity.

But court documents show that one Motherless user, a South Dakotan by the name of Casey Godfrey, is facing federal indictments after sending pictures of his dick to someone he thought was a teen girl. And it happened because the man—who by some act of God selected "Boneman" as his username—thought the guy's arm was a little girl's vagina.

The arm/vagina prank is older than the internet, but it's never been so easy to dupe your friends (or enemies) as in the age of ubiquitous photography and illusion.

The plot to take down Boneman hinged on a similar ruse. Written testimony by Jonathan Kirk, an officer with the Pennington County Sheriff's Office, describes baiting Godfrey (all emphasis added):

On 01-16-14 Special Agent Brent Gromer received a telephone call from Sgt. Eric Jones, Nebraska State Patrol. Sgt. Jones advised S/A Gromer that his agency was currently investigating an individual who stated that he worked as a custodian at a Rapid City Elementary School. Sgt. Jones advised S/A Gromer that Trooper Monty Lovelace had been conducting undercover chats on Motherless.com and via other electronic methods with this individual posing as a 14 year old girl.

On 01-16-14 S/A Gromer spoke with Trp. Lovelace who relayed the same information about his contacts with the unknown individual. Trp. Lovelace advised that during his undercover chat with this individual the person told him that he worked as a custodian at a local Rapid City School. The chats originally began on Motherless.com utilizing user ID "Boneman." Eventually Trp. Lovelace chatted with the individual on Yahoo instant messenger via Yahoo.com. The individual also informed Trp. Lovelace that he "really liked" a teacher at the school and provided the name "Averie". He stated he also really likes an 11 year old student at the school named "Patience".

The Boneman cometh. Godfrey made it very clear what he was after on Motherless:

On 01-16-14, Trp. Lovelace forwarded copies of his undercover chat to S/A Gromer and I. Trp. Lovelace was using an undercover identity and Godfrey was using the Motherless.com screen name "boneman". I reviewed those chats. I noticed the undercover agent told Godfrey they were 14 years old. I also found Godfrey had requested pictures mUltiple times from the undercover agent. Godfrey specifically asked for "other" pictures on 01-15-14 at 08:24:04 AM. Godfrey then asked for "naughty ones" after that. At 08:43: 11 AM, on 01-15-14, Godfrey sends the following message: "you show me yours, I'll show you mine when you get out of school".

People actually say that! In the world! Wow. In case it's not clear by now, Godfrey truly is the kind of creep you're warned about on local news segments:

Individual also informed Trp. Lovelace that he "really liked" a teacher at the school and provided the name "Averie". He stated he also really likes an 11 year old student at the school named "Patience".

[...]

Godfrey's "Boneman" site bio on Motherless.com lists his interests as "Yng/vry yng, family, panties, pissing/squirting, voyeur, jb (jailbait), tribbing (multiple females engaging in mutual, simultaneous, genitalia rubbing) ... love it all. Have done stuff to trade to trade, msg me with your email. Also world (sic) LOVE to meet people in the N/W South Dakota, N/E Wyoming area ... love making new friends :)."

In this case, the new friend was supposed to be an underage teen girl. Officer Kirk was ready to spring his trap. He just needed a piece of evidence that could pin Internet Monster Godfrey to School Janitor Godfrey. If there were some way he could get Godfrey to reveal himself, in intimate detail. Kirk knew the rules: show me yours, and I'll show you mine:

During their conversation, the undercover sent a picture of a fold in the skin of his arm to Godfrey. The undercover portrayed it as a picture of their vagina. Godfrey later sent the undercover a picture of an adult male's penis. A white ring can be seen on the subject's hand, which is holding onto the penis. Godfrey claims the picture is of his penis.

When approached by cops shortly after this non-vagina pic swap, Godfrey was wearing the same white wedding ring. Godfrey is now facing federal charges of "attempted enticement of a minor using the Internet and attempted transfer of obscene material to a minor." The lesson here is to never try to seduce an underage teenage girl if you are not also an underage teen and always double-check crotch-shots for authenticity.

Bill O'Reilly Threatened a New York Times Reporter

uq5zuwll56idpkotcrx0.jpg


In the course of doubling down on his widely-disputed claims about what exactly he was doing in Argentina during the Falklands War, Bill O'Reilly also managed to threaten a New York Times reporter.

During a phone conversation on Monday, O'Reilly told Times media reporter Emily Steel that there would be consequences if he didn't like the way the story she was writing came out.

"I am coming after you with everything I have," O'Reilly said. "You can take it as a threat."

Steel shares a byline on the story with Ravi Somaiya, but Somaiya gave her credit on Twitter for the quote.

Cherry Magnate Shoots Self in Head as Cops Raid Hidden Drug Stash

ys0yjeygatvuyxp261iu.png


The owner of a Brooklyn-based maraschino cherry company killed himself Tuesday during a drug raid on his Red Hook factory. After watching law enforcement agents discover a fake wall, Dell's Maraschino Cherries owner Arthur Mondella reportedly locked himself in his private bathroom, yelled "take care of my kids" to his sister, and then shot himself in the head.

Not long after the shooting, investigators found more than 80 pounds of marijuana and hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash behind the hidden entrance. From the New York Daily News:

Later, after executing a search warrant on the secret entrance, investigators uncovered "a huge marijuana-growing operation" underneath the warehouse, a source said.

In the space below the plant, they also found numerous high-end vehicles, including a Rolls-Royce, a Porsche and Harley-Davidson motorcycle.

"Underground, it was really 'Breaking Bad,'" said the astounded law enforcement source.

Twenty-five investigators from the Brooklyn D.A.'s office and the Department of Environmental Protection swarmed the Red Hook factory—which provides cherries to Red Lobster, Buffalo Wild Wings, Chick-Fil-a, TGI Fridays, and other chain restaurants—early Tuesday morning to examine the building for possible environmental violations. (The New York Post reports that attempts to get a warrant to search for drugs were unsuccessful, hence the D.E.P.'s involvement). Mondella was reportedly cooperative during the search's first five hours or so, until investigators discovered the hidden room.

"As soon as that door cracked, the aroma of marijuana was overwhelming," a law enforcement source told the Post. "It looks like a cave, like they dug it out on their own."

Surveillance cameras and several generators were also discovered throughout the factory, which Mondella's grandfather opened in 1929. It went through a $5 million renovation last year.

I don't know if this is true or if someone is making up the story (the 50 Shades Part at least) to sell a media claim over how yet another "controversial" movie (or book or game or song) has caused someone to commit a crime. Or maybe he is using the 50 Shades fad as an excuse to attempt justifying rape as unknowingly doing so under the guise of consent.

Any time I see [something popular example here] referenced in a crime I'm immediately suspicious of either the report's claim or the accused's claim it inspired them.
 
All that over weed? Just legalize the **** already. It's no worse than cigs or booze.
 
New studies show it's actually less dangerous than both of those Kev, although I'm sure most of us already knew that

British MP sounds like a parody, is actually for real

David Tredinnick, a British MP, thinks the National Health Service should use astrology as a diagnostic tool. No, you didn't read that wrong, it does say astrology. Oh, and people who disagree are bullies and racially prejudiced.

Perhaps after this guy we should stop being surprised when politicians prove they don't understand science, but somehow the wonders never cease:

"Ninety per cent of pregnant French women use homeopathy. Astrology is a useful diagnostic tool enabling us to see strengths and weaknesses via the birth chart.

"And, yes, I have helped fellow MPs. I do foresee that one day astrology will have a role to play in healthcare."

As to why people who disagree with him are bullies? Probably because they disagree with him.

"Astrology offers self-understanding to people. People who oppose what I say are usually bullies who have never studied astrology.

"Astrology was until modern times part of the tradition of medicine ... People such as Professor Brian Cox, who called astrology 'rubbish', have simply not studied the subject.

Yes, he is talking about that Professor Brian Cox: physicist, CERN scientist, and BBC science show host.

But the real kicker comes with this quote, which almost makes him sound like a parody:

Opposition to astrology is driven by "superstition, ignorance and prejudice", he said. "It tends to be based on superstition, with scientists reacting emotionally, which is always a great irony.

"They are also ignorant, because they never study the subject and just say that it is all to do with what appears in the newspapers, which it is not, and they are deeply prejudiced, and racially prejudiced, which is troubling."

When he isn't saying wacky things about non-science, David Tredinnick makes decisions about real healthcare and real science on both the Health Committee and the Science and Technology Committee of the British Parliament.
