WTFckery Or Not? You Decide

Here some the WTFckery!

1. Dracula is all over the place! Take that Vampire Sparkles! The title I guess it supposed to be a ha-ha funny? Can no one come up with an original idea anymore? From Anna's Book Blog:

iDrakula by Bekka Black coming from Sourcebooks on October 1st.

Synopsis: 18-year-old Jonathan Harker is diagnosed with a rare blood disorder after visiting a Romanian Count. His girlfriend Mina and a pre-med student named Van Helsing team up to investigate the source of the disease. The teenagers discover a horrifying truth: the Count is a vampire. The harrowing events unfold through emails, text messages, web pages, Twitter feeds, and instant messaging—the natural modernization of Bram Stoker’s original Dracula, which was written in letters, diary entries, and news clippings.
 
2. I used to adore Mel Gibson ( I still cry at the ending of Braveheart). Has this man gone off the deep end or not? From TMZ:

"Sources close to Oksana Grigorieva tell TMZ ... Mel Gibson punched her in the face and knocked out her teeth in a fit of rage. Sources in Oksana's camp say Mel's people are lying when they say she shook the baby. Instead, the sourceds say, "She tried to protect the baby during one of Gibson's violent episodes when he punched Oksana in the face two times, breaking her teeth and giving her a concussion."

As one source put it, "She tried to protect his reputation, depsite her fears of him and his verbal and physical abuse." And the source goes on, "She regrets havfing believed in his empty promises to obtain professional help to control his violent nature."

TMZ broke the story ... Oksana obtained a restraining order against Gibson last Monday, which prohibits him from coming within 100 yards of her."

3. Thanks to Alison Pang for this WTFckery. This really makes me sad and disgusted. From Switched:

BeautifulPeople Dating Site Boots 5,000 'Fatties'

"The site has reportedly booted 5,000 (yes, that's a comma and three zeros) users after they posted pictures which showed they had gained weight over the holidays. The unabashedly vain Web site can't take sole credit here however, the site's users themselves reported the now exiled members for getting soft around the middle.

Founder Robert Hintze was unapologetic about the move. He told the BBC, "letting fatties roam the site is a direct threat to our business model." Clearly there are no requirements about class to join the service."

4. So the premiere of Eclipse has now passed, but I'm still shaking my head over grown women spending 3 nights before in tents just to get a small glimpse of Edward/Bella/Jacob. As for me, if I waited that long, I would also want to meet Billy Burke, who plays Bella's dad Charlie and Peter Facinelli, who plays the vampire Dr. Carlisle Cullen.  From Deadline Hollwood:

One of the comments left says it perfectly: "Meanwhile, at Summit HQ…“Excellent, Smithers.”

"600 fans starting to line up Monday for Thursday's Eclipse premiere at the Nokia Theater for a glimpse of the cast of this 3rd pic in the Twilight Saga. About 350 Twi-Hards already were cleared through security to camp out at 6 AM PT Thursday in the L.A."

5. Some aweome 80's teen pop singer idol mash-up here in the form of B-movie greatness! Debbie Gibson and Tiffany are going to star together in Mega Python vs. Gatoroid for the Syfy network! I'm on Team Debbie. And yes, I have her greatest hits album and listen to it montly. From The Hollywood Reporter.

"Syfy has cast 1980s pop-star rivals Debbie Gibson and Tiffany in one of the network’s signature Saturday night original movies. Yes, they will fight.

The network promises an epic battle between the former teen pop idols, who will star in “Mega Python vs. Gatoroid.”

Gibson will play a fanatical animal-rights activist who frees illegally imported exotic snakes from pet stores, sending them into the Everglades, where they grow to mega sizes. Tiffany will play an overzealous park ranger who uses dangerous methods to save endangered alligators."

6. Chris from Stumbling Over Chaos gave me the heads up at a new product. It's a condom with teeth that will prevent rape. From CNN World:

South African doctor invents female condoms with 'teeth' to fight rape

"Dr. Sonnet Ehlers shows a spiked female condom, whose hooks she says stick on a man during rape"

South African Dr. Sonnet Ehlers has invented a new type of condom called Rape-aXe.

"Ehlers is distributing the female condoms in the various South African cities where the World Cup soccer games are taking place. The woman inserts the latex condom like a tampon. Jagged rows of teeth-like hooks line its inside and attach on a man's penis during penetration, Ehlers said.

Once it lodges, only a doctor can remove it -- a procedure Ehlers hopes will be done with authorities on standby to make an arrest.

"It hurts, he cannot pee and walk when it's on," she said. "If he tries to remove it, it will clasp even tighter... however, it doesn't break the skin, and there's no danger of fluid exposure."

Ehlers said she sold her house and car to launch the project, and she planned to distribute 30,000 free devices under supervision during the World Cup period."

7. Hello Kitty engine oil? From New Launches:

"Undoubtedly this is from Japan. The synthetic engine oil is designed for use in compact cars. You can get the cuteness of the Kitty in your car for 2980 Yen ($ 33). "

8. For some reason a talking Mickey really freaks me out. But on the other hand, this video does bring a tear to my eye.



9. And your Regretsy WTFckery is a plush companion toy to that WTFOMGBBQ horror movie, The Human Centipede. I have to give major props though to the crafty creator of this toy that a cat will surely love to chew apart.

Enjoy this latest and greatest WTFckery...
