Gingers DO Have Souls!

// January 24th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Featured Articles, Youtube

If you’ve ever watched a day of South Park then you’re well aware of the fact that they make fun of and slander every single race, religion, sexual orientation known to man. Basically, its equal discrimination and its quite funny.

A recent episode, apparently, said a few naughty things about us gingers. Red Heads, that is. Claiming, among other things, that we lack souls. Now, I’m saying “we” however, I’m only a ginger by my cousin, Loreal. A young boy who’s channel name is CopperCab (not going to get any red headed jokes from that one) posted a video claiming that he in fact, does have a soul.

I say, good for him! That took a lot of guts. The video has been parodied and he’s being made fun of left and right. But the video has since gone viral around the internet and has racked nearly a million views. He’s even selling “Gingers have souls” T-Shirts! So any sympathy I had once felt is long gone. I’m glad for his sake, he’s probably rubbing it in the haters faces!

Stumbleupon – A Websurfing Journey

// December 5th, 2009 // No Comments » // Featured Articles

Due to my recent lack of interest in sites I normally frequent, I’ve begun to use Stumbleupon. A fabulous site to cure your websurfing boredom. Stumbleupon enables users to have random websites generated for viewing based up on user preferences. Surfers can then ‘thumbs up’ or ‘thumbs down’ the website and stumble upon will remember your preferences. Subscribers to your stumble(s?) can see what you’ve favorited in the past.

Ive come across some super interesting sites, incredibly stunning photography, artistry that will make you weep and humorous videos and sayings that will make you laugh ’till your hearts content. Here is a small sampling of what I’ve found this week:

Sand Animation

Likely the most amazing thing I’ve seen in quite some time. If it weren’t for Stumbleupon, I likely wouldn’t have seen this talented artist, with such passion in her heart. Here is Kseniya Simonova’s “Sand Animation”, a 5 minute WW2 history of the Ukraine.
