Some dogs are well-trained, some dogs are really well-trained. In this Very Funny Ads video clip, Thailand’s Chaiphak Training Center shows just how well they can train dogs (unfortunately, making their masters look bad in comparison …)

Does a Fart Make You More Judgmental?

Posted by Miss Cellania in Science & Tech on April 24, 2009 at 10:25 am


Researchers gave a questionnaire to college students, in which they are given a scenario and asked to rate how immoral the situation is. Some students just answered the questions. Others had to do it with a secret fart canister nearby! The results? The students who had to smell farts rated scenarios as immoral more often.

The combined ratings were significantly lower — more immoral — when the survey was conducted in the presence of fart smell. Schnall’s team says that this demonstrates that our moral judgment is affected by disgust: we’re harsher in our moral judgments when we’re disgusted (a post-test confirmed that those who smelled the fart spray were significantly more disgusted than the others). Interestingly, the quantity of fart spray didn’t matter: despite the fact that everyone agreed that more fart spray smelled worse, the moral judgments weren’t different depending on how much spray was used.

Warning: Some examples from the questionnaire may be disturbing. Link

Fart Machine in a Public Meeting

Posted by Miss Cellania in Funny on March 9, 2009 at 10:31 am

The entire city council loses it and cannot conduct business when some kid uses a fart machine. There’s no indication of what city it is, but they moved to recess in order to regain composure. Link

Brussels Sprouts + Gorillas = Bad Situation

Posted by Miss Cellania in Animal, Odd News on December 18, 2008 at 11:39 am

Chessington Zoo in London has issued an apology to guests after giving the gorillas a Christmas treat of Brussels sprouts. The seasonal sprouts are highly nutritious, but the gorilla farts caused horror among people around them.

Gorilla keeper Michael Rozzi said: “We feed the gorillas brussel sprouts during the winter because they are packed with vitamin C and have great nutritional benefits.

“Unfortunately, an embarrassing side effect is that it can cause bouts of flatulence in humans and animals alike.

“However, I don’t think any of us were prepared for a smell that strong.”

The zoo has taken the sprouts off the menu while the zoo is open to the public. The gorillas will enjoy them when the zoo is closed on Christmas Day. Link -Thanks, Rich!
