Getting Your Shit Together

City authorities in Zimbabwe's second largest city said Saturday they were appealing to home owners to flush their toilets at a specified time as a way to unblock sewers after days of severe water rationing.

Bulawayo City Council has asked its more than 1 million residents to flush their toilets simultaneously at 7:30 p.m. when water supplies are restored. City officials say "synchronized flushing" is needed to clear waste that would have accumulated in sanitary facilities which will have been affected by days of water outages.  No shitting-- check it out here.

Romney Can Now Officially Go Fuck Himself

Leaked video from a Mitt Romney fundraiser has given us unexpected insight into the arrogant and elitist attitude behind the carefully crafted campaign bullshit he's been peddling.  A direct quote from the video:

There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what…These are people who pay no income tax.

Romney, this is the Daily Dude speaking-- I voted for Obama in 2008.  I am not dependent on government.  I am not a victim.  I don't feel I'm entitled to anything-- except, perhaps, a little respect for my intelligence from political candidates.  And by the way, I do pay income tax-- at a much higher marginal rate than you do.

This Is The Jerk That Stirred Up The Benghazi Shit


The first picture has now come out of Nakoula Basseley Nakoula (also known as Sam Bacile) who was last week named by the FBI as the film-maker responsible for Innocence Of Muslims, which ridicules the prophet Muhammad. In this set photo, he is shown with the film’s star Anna Gurji, who says she was duped by the 55-year-old director.

Nakoula is an Egyptian-born Coptic Christian. Now living in California, he is a convicted drug dealer and conman who was released from jail in June of last year.  Two attorneys visited Nakoula's home hours before he was taken in for questioning.

 The film has ignited anti-American clashes from Morocco to Malaysia.  In Benghazi, Libya, violent protests over the film led to the deaths of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other American officials.

The Ultimate Herb Garden

An elderly British couple unwittingly grew a monstrous cannabis plant in their garden after buying what they thought was an innocuous green bush, and tending it carefully.

Police in Bedford, a commuter town 60 miles from London, posted a picture of a luxuriant cannabis plant growing as tall as a fence.  “Elderly couple bought shrub at car boot sale, tended carefully-biggest cannabis plant we had seen!!” a Twitter message from the police exclaimed.
