Believe it or not, this is an actual page screenshot of an actual photo on sale at iStockphoto.
The name of the image has since been changed, so if you don’t believe me, then look at the URL of the page which still shows “fuck you men” in the string. [via]
Some people find the funniest ways to slip through the cracks.

Who at Kraft Foods Inc. (Australia) was smoking crack when they announced to the entire country that a new product based off of the Australian food staple, Vegemite, was going to be named “iSnack 2.0″?
Apparently, the company had no idea that Australians would be very unforgiving about the stupid naming idea and after much uproar about the new name, Kraft Foods Australia has decided to pull the product from shelves. Hopefully, they won’t be renaming it again any time soon.

Anybody know where the Crapi Apartments are? I want to live here. I’m sure people writing me snail mail would appreciate the humor.
Thanks Sarah!

According to the New York Times article on the death of John S. Barry, the man not responsible for the invention of WD-40 but the ubiquitous sale of the product, the name WD-40 stands for “water displacement, formulation successful in 40th attempt”.
Back in 1953 at the Rocket Chemical Company, it took employees 40 attempts before they figured out the perfect solution for a rust-prevention spray. Cool. I didn’t know that despite using WD-40 for just about all of my life.

In an effort to remain afloat in this ailing economy, Pizza Hut has decided to re-brand some of their stores as “The Hut”.
IDSGN reports that Pizza Hut spokesman Chris Fuller has confirmed that the name change is only a marketing effort and not a permanent change for all stores.
I like their new all-red pizza boxes, but not so much their new (or old) logo. Doesn’t the name remind you of Jabba The Hut?
