The Future of Zombie Entertainment
This is probably only funny to me. And even then, it's only funny in the "if I don't laugh I will cry" kind of way, since I have to spend most of my working life complying with this ridiculous legislation that does NOTHING to prevent corporate fraud, but sure makes the lives of myself and my coworkers miserable.

Amazingly, a child (who may be named "8") has been suspended for pledging allegiance to the United Federation of Planets during school. Really.
His mom has a great blog post about it.

A freakishly mutated, but very adorable six-legged, dual penis-ed puppy has been found snoozing outside a Malaysian temple. The (very, very sweet looking) monstrosity has been taken in by the temple and given the name Ong Fatt (Lucky One).
No word yet on whether or not he will become the subject of a Disney film directed by Tim Burton.
Apparently Slave Labor comics (home of Johnny The Homicidal Maniac) has a license to do comics based on several Disney properties. They are aiming at the teen market, but I am still interested in The Haunted Mansion (because it's one of my two favorite rides) and the Wonderland title, since it's being done by Tommy Kovac (creator of Stitch and the incredibly funny and messed up Skelebunnies series).
I'm assuming that somehow this all came out of the relationship that started way back in 2001 when Disney Magazine briefly ran some Little Gloomy strips (before they sucked).
Astoundingly creepy interactive stop motion doll. Totally lifeless and disturbing. I can't stop looking at it though.
The rest of the site is filled with other (slightly less) unsettling animations.

Totally awesome. A group of (mad) scientists have found that they can tear the heads off of flies then use lasers to stimulate the exposed nerve endings and control the fly - even making it, well, fly.
Check out the super creepy video here.
I am also taking bets on how long it will be before they try it with monkeys, and eventually, children.

In what may lead to the most terrifying grad-student sex toy ever, Glasgow Interactive Systems Group and the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in the UK have developed a a fiberglass model of the rear of a cow containing a PHANToM haptic feedback device. In other words - a high tech vibrator. Supposedly it's for teaching students how to do bovine rectal palpation, but you know how kids are.

Renounce the animation of the modern capitalistic enemy of the state! Instead, enjoy the animation of the people! You have no choice!
