Well-Intentioned Phrases Ruined By Obnoxious People

Most phrases we use all the time didn't start out with any sort of bad intention behind them, because they were coined for the sake of safety and self expression not to piss people off.

But, like every other well intentioned thing in this world, some jerks just had to take phrases like "does it have gluten in it?" or "think of the children!"  and ruin them for everyone else.

People once asked about gluten because they have celiac disease, and eating gluten filled foods like wheat, barley or rye can make them really sick, but then the diet fad began and made "gluten" a jerk word.

Likewise "won't somebody please think of the children?" began as a well-meaning phrase designed to get people to think about what kids are exposed to, so strippers and sailors would tone it down around the kiddos.

But now it's a PC battle cry yelled by those who seek to "protect children" by whitewashing the world, making the world a safer place by censoring the crap out of everything.

Am I Losing It?

Putting the milk back in the fridge when we're done is a practice our parents beat into our heads from birth, and by the time we're grown up and buying our own milk we never forget to put it back.

So when we as full grown adults actually manage to leave the milk out without remembering that we even used the milk, much less left it out, the glaring error makes us feel like we're losing our minds.

But, as this Channelate comic by Ryan Hudson shows, that carton of milk may have left itself out- with a little help from mischievous house ghosts. Sounds legit to me!

Proof That Chinese Models Are The Fastest Models In The World

Fashion models can earn a name for having an unique look, an interesting figure or because they've mastered the art of what Tyra Banks calls the '"smeyes".

But the Chinese online shopping conglomerate Taobao doesn't care if a model can use their smeyes- as long as they can model quickly and assume around 30 poses per minute.

High speed modeling may sound like efficiency gone mad, but the Taobao models who strike poses faster than anyone else on Earth can make upwards of $1500 a day for a shoot, so they're not complaining!

"Your Breakfast Will Be Legendary, Even In Hell" - Mmmm, Toasty


"Your breakfast will be legendary, even in Hell" by Ed Harrington

But the brave little toaster soon noticed a change in his new owner's demeanor, a darkening of his countenance that had something to do with a shiny puzzle box...

Facehugger In The Box - Man, Space Toys Totally Suck!


Facehugger in the box by Dr.Monekers 

If you ever discover a jack-in-the-box while searching through an old abandoned Weyland-Yutani vessel you should really leave it alone- and ask yourself how such a strange thing came to be on that ship. Kids haven't played with such primitive toys in over a century, and Weyland-Yutani isn't in the business of making toys, so someone must have built that box knowing a curious human would some day board that ship...

Warn people about the dangers hidden in toys found on abandoned spaceships with this Facehugger In The Box t-shirt by Dr. Monekers, it's one dangerously cool design!

No Coffee No Workee - Keep That Java Flowin'!


No coffee No workee by Bomdesignz 

They should put a sign up in every office in America that says "No Coffee No Workee" so the people in charge of ordering stuff for the break room will remember to stock coffee above all else. Because an office without coffee brewing constantly is like a barista without some sort of hipster clothing accessory, in other words just so wrong. If you ever find yourself in a "no more coffee" situation at the office you should offer to buy your co-workers a cuppa joe from a nearby coffee shop- because you'll look like a hero and get to take an extended break!

Wear your love of java on your chest with this No Coffee No Workee t-shirt by Bomdesignz, it's a real eye opener!

Gotta Kill Em All - When Pocket Monsters Attack


Gotta Kill Em All by Grady Graphics

I don't know why people are always go-ing around trying to catch pocket monsters, are they missing the "monster" in their name? Those creepy little critters aren't collectibles, and they aren't the kinds of creatures we should be letting into our homes because they're feral and they're not afraid to tear into a person when they're feeling hungry. So instead of games where trainers catch 'em all they should really make a game where trainers kill 'em all before they can overrun the town...

Warn people about the danger of poke collecting with this Gotta Kill Em All t-shirt by Grady Graphics, it's a bloody fun way to poke fun at the poke obsessed.

The Art Of Secrets - Keep Them Like A Shiny Trinket


The Art of Secrets by ChocolateRaisinFury

In rat society it is considered shameful to steal, lie or keep secrets, but the rats who were involuntary participants in the NIMH project have no choice but to keep their dark past a secret from the others. For you see, if the other rats knew about the powers they'd acquired during the experiments the former involuntary guests of NIMH would be seen as a threat and cast out, if not killed on sight. So they keep their secret like a precious trinket, pretending like they have nothing to hide and exchanging knowing nods with those who survived NIMH...

Frank Rabbit - He's So Much More Of A Bad Boy Than Roger


Frank Rabbit by Anderson Green Devil

Jessica was getting bored of being with someone as slapstick and stretchy as Roger, so she went looking for a different kind of rabbit, one with more emotional depth and a really strong presence. So she jumped reels into a flick marked "D. Darko" and came across a tall, dark and creepy guy named Frank. Frank told Jessica that he had information about the end of the world and she pretended to be listening, but all she really wanted was someone who was the opposite of Roger to take her mind off of him. So Jessica seduced poor Frank and made him forget what he was supposed to tell young Donnie, leaving the flick with a very unhappy ending...

What The Bark Is THAT? - The Giving Tree Isn't Home Right Now


What the Bark is THAT? | Funny Tree by Boots

Kids who hear about the Giving Tree inevitably end up searching through the forest for a tree that matches the description found in the Silverstein book, thinking it should be easy to spot such a magical tree. But what these kids don't know is the trees in the forest are varied, with different diets and totally different temperaments, so you're more likely to come across a Strangling Tree or a Whacking Tree than a Giving Tree. Besides, that Giving Tree bit is just a fairytale, but Stabbing Trees are real, and they're terrifying!

Why Cocaine Makes People Act Like Total Jerks

(Image Link)

Cocaine flowed more freely than champagne at nightclubs in the 70s, and even though the war on drugs fought hard against that "devil weed" marijuana they turned a blind eye to cocaine because it's considered a "rich man's drug".

But I'll take the company of a stoner over a cokehead any time, because potheads are mellow and chill and cokeheads are hyperactive chatterboxes who act like total douchebags.

(Image Link)

So what is it about a cocaine high that transforms people into a-holes? To find out VICE spoke with David Belin from Cambridge University's Department of Pharmacology, who explained:

"Drugs target three psychological mechanisms in your brain," he said. With cocaine, you're effectively buzzing off the chemical dopamine flooding your brain every time you take a bump. "Dopamine is not pleasure itself, but a mechanism in the brain that allows for learning," David explained.

"It targets your brain so that dopamine is released all the time that you take it, and it feels great," says David. "You start building a very strong motivation for the drugs."

"Cocaine influences your pre-frontal cortex [the part of your brain that regulates behaviours and, essentially, your ability to make sound judgements]. It actually messes up your executive functions, your inhibitory control and your decision making. So now you've got this very strong motivation [from the dopamine] and, because of the effects of the drug, you end up with an inability to inhibit your impulses and make good decisions."

"Third: drugs facilitate habits, so at this point your impulses are full of motivation for the drug, and they reach your habit system and you just do it without thinking about it, necessarily," said David, referring to how moreish cocaine can be. "Also, with cocaine, there's no real physical withdrawal, but there's a strong psychological withdrawal. You feel anxious, you feel bad, so that adds to the motivation to continue taking the drug."
