Boobquake & a Special Mominatrix Boot Camp & Mommy Playdate

Posted April 26, 2010 at 12:30 pm by

So, if you haven’t heard about Boobquake, climb out from under the rock you’re living under (or the dungeon you’re trapped in, right, Whipping Boy?) and display those boobs (at your own comfort level, of course).

Oddly enough, there actually was an earthquake in Taiwan. So maybe this whole boob thing isn’t just a joke after all.

Now, if nothing happens to California due to all this boob-induced seismic action, the Mominatrix will be making a pair of appearances in the Bay Area and she really hopes you’ll be able to make it.

In another effort to eliminate any kind of personal responsibility, NYC’s counsilman Eric Gioia is putting forth a vote for an ordinance that would prevent any fast food restaurants from opening within a tenth of a mile of a school. Berkeley and Columbia, the two universities that studied the fatso affect, must have received a grant that kept them occupied so they wouldn’t draw on the walls or stick their fingers in the electrical sockets or something. Because that’s all we need — another needless study that adds fuel to their “Big Corporate America preys on dumb people” cause or something.

Also in the study, an increase of weight in pregnant women living close to McDonalds or Burger King too. Shocking! So if a fast food restaurant is only within a few blocks, I might go there more often? You don’t say?
