New Zealander Cuts Off And Eats His Finger
04 May 2011 by Janey Bee / No Comments
Self-cannabalism is not for the faint-hearted. And there are only eight recorded instances of it in the world. Most recently, a man from New Zealand cut off his little finger and ate it. It’s interesting to note that he’s a vegetarian.

An Idea Worth Tabling
03 May 2011 by Bruce Good / No Comments
With all the talk of events in London over the past week, I couldn’t help but feel slightly nostalgic for my halcyon days in the UK. Weekends in Europe, snakebites, wild nights at the Met Bar, Pimms, Linen suits, boat races – my, they were good days. Not the weather, mind, but the first world nature of it all.

Local Butchery Enters Personal Hygiene Space
02 May 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Not shy of diversification, it seems this local retailer is versatile enough to branch out into personal hygiene products. Who would have thought that a butchery would be the go-to place for one to acquire Ass Creams? “Kudos” to you!

Spar Selling ‘Yesterday’s Ass Cake’
26 Apr 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
The success of ass flavoured foods and products sweeping the nation has clearly led to complacency of sorts. Here we see a local Spar confidently selling ‘yesterday’s’ ass cake! THAT’S how good it is. Will it replace the all-time leftover food winner, pizza? Only time will tell..

Tornado Takes Man’s Hamburger And Drink [VIDEO]
21 Apr 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / No Comments
Obviously it’s not actually humorous to make fun of natural disasters, and that’s not what we’re doing here. Instead we’re laughing at the unique situation that Eric Hubbard landed up in, shall we say. So, go ahead and make of this fellow what you will. He is rather superbly animated with his storytelling execution.

The S.Pellegrino World’s 50 Best Restaurants Awards is a pretty big deal. The judges scour the world for the finest of fine dining, and it just so happens that Le Quartier Francais in Franschhoek nabbed the number 36 spot. Two thumbs up!

Checkers Takes Personal Hygiene To The Next Level
15 Apr 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
Whilst a product of this nature may well be found in the back section of your local pharmacy, it is impressive to note that mainstream home-shopping chain, Checkers, is taking personal hygiene so seriously. A 2oceansviber spotted this sign in a local Checkers store. They certainly aren’t hiding such intimate products/kits in the back of [...]

Buy A “Jou Ma Se Burger” At Castello’s
14 Apr 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / No Comments
Marketing can be a really beautiful thing. It’s also a touch difficult to remain original within the fast paced environment of radvertising these days. So, when someone gets it right, like launching a “jou ma se burger” for instance, one just has to give it the old customary head-nod and one-corner-of-the-mouth-curling smile it so rightly deserves.

Mzoli’s Launches Gugulethu’s First Wine Festival
07 Apr 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / 1 Comment
If you’ve ever made your way to Mzoli’s in Gug’s, or even just to the Mzoli’s Butchery to pick up your whopping large lamb chops, you’ll be aware that this has the potential to be one hell of a vibe. Instead of washing down a tasting with a boring biscuit, we’ll probably be snacking on a piece of wors.

New York Busies Itself With State Vegetable Debate
07 Apr 2011 by Janey Bee / 2 Comments
We can all guess what the official fruit of New York State is, can’t we? That’s right – the apple. Official drink of the New Yawkers? Milk. But now the race is on to name the official state vegetable. And the lawmakers are making a meal of it.

Steers Vs. KFC
06 Apr 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
In the never-ending battle for fast-food supremacy in South Africa, it is interesting to note what fast-food fast-food staff eat when they want fast-food! Ow, shaiya the colonel!

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen – Adorably Racist [VIDEO]
01 Apr 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / No Comments
We all watched that television series Full House when we were younger. We all loved it and it was one of the funniest and happiest times of our young television lives. The twins were, well, adorable and made us laugh out loud quite regularly, but they might need to explain this one.

Peta Holds Naked Shower Protest, Causes Car Accident
25 Mar 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / 2 Comments
I know we did this last week, but this is unfortunately the reality of the hour that one officially applies the Cape Town Friday Rule. It’s called habit, and there’s no better way to form a habit other than through repetition. Essentially you should now start embracing everything non work-like, so let’s celebrate with a naked shower protest.

Hippo Scares Grandfather And Grandson Up Tree
23 Mar 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / No Comments
This will probably rate right up there with their worst ever experiences together as grandfather and grandson. It certainly wasn’t one of those happy days like you’d see on adverts or in the movies. Although, mind you, I suppose it did start out as an innocent canoe trip which was probably fun for a while.

On this the official hour of the application of the Cape Town Friday Rule, we thought we would spoil you a little. Yes, he’s doing a cooking show because he’s winning television right now. And with lines like: “I killed this cow myself, winners stalk and kill their food without earthly weapons,” get ready for some winning recipes.

Camel Milk: In Fridges Soon
09 Mar 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / 1 Comment
That’s right, camel milk demand is on the up and the word is getting out. Demand from diabetic patients, parents of autistic children and sufferers of Crohn’s disease has resulted in them becoming their own powerful lobbyists. Internationally that is. So when will camel milk sail into the mainstream market here at home I wonder?

Giorgio Armani Buys House In Camps Bay
08 Mar 2011 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Just picked up some news on SA’s leading fashion blog, PopYaCollar.co.za, that Giorgio Armani has bought a house in Camps Bay. I just love the way he rolls and cannot wait to join him for a Corona at Caprice! Apparently the house is on Ronald Road – PopYacollar has an aerial shot showing where it [...]

Fish Farming Is Big Business
08 Mar 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / No Comments
Perlemoen, in particular. I know a few chaps who used pull out the odd perly when we were younger. It was childish and naive at the time I thought, although I too engaged in other unrelated mischief of my own. Anyway, aquaculture has always fascinated me and the recession did it no favours. This however, might be the new oil.
