Barack Abomination

You might remember from previous entries that EADJ is curating a Hall of Anthropomorphic Horrors, such as a tooth with teeth, a hand with hands, and a foot with feet.

We found yet another possible addition to the collection from the Far East, a phone texting on a phone. Let me repeat that. A PHONE TEXTING ON A PHONE.

WHY CAN'T HE TEXT ON HIMSELF? IS THAT HIS CHILD HE'S TEXTING ON?! WHY DOES HE WEAR OLD TIMEY HOBO SHOES??!!!!

An Abomination Of A Different Kind

In a previous post, we introduced you to our Hall of Anthropomorphic Horrors, featuring a tooth with teeth, a hand with hands, and a foot with feet.

Last weekend in a hobby store, we happened upon another, completely different kind of abomination:

Look. It's a "Cool Collecting Barbie," which in itself has been labeled a "collectible."

So what does it collect, exactly? When you open the box does it collect itself? Does it seal itself back in the box to preserve its collectibility? Or does it collect other collectible Barbies to create a new Supercollectible? IS THIS THE END OF THE HUMAN RACE?????

Metallurgy Corner!

(this entry has been provided as a service to the many EADJ readers who have requested a section devoted to the art of metallurgy)

Electroplating is a popular surface-treatment technique. It involves bonding a thin layer of another metal such as gold, silver, chromium or zinc to the surface of the product. If the product is Joel, then the substance used is dick. It is used to reduce corrosion as well as to improve the product's aesthetic appearance.

Aluminium, copper, tin and gold are used in power lines, wires, printed circuit boards and integrated circuits. Integrated circuits sometimes have dick, and then Joel is used to eat that dick to fully integrate the unit. Soldering is a method of joining metallic electrical conductors where high strength is not required. Dick-in-Joel is another method of joining dick to hungry, hungry Joel Thomas.

(pictured above, only by going to a bridal store at a strip mall in the suburbs can you ever see a sweet poster like this)
