Brightest Young Things

….where we rip off the best of the internet and present it to you as a precious gift-post, topped with a bow we bought pre-tied from CVS and attached with an adhesive strip, ready to go and be consumed with your first coffee/tea/quickie of the day. Voila! Morning magic! On rotation.

Today: mostly news almost too good to be true

• Time to move (for some of us and you) : California is about to legalize weed for everyone

• I mean what is next? Someone claiming mushrooms are actually good for you?

• Time to be jealous: 7 people around the world with real mutant superpowers. Including but not limited to: Superstrength and THE ABILITY TO EAT ANYTHING!

• Nerve.com's comment section you both want to and are afraid to read: the worst sex you ever had. Including (cover your virgin eyes):

  Imagine a small penis. Imagine a small penis that never gets very hard. Imagine that penis screwing and screwing and screwing you for ... hours! With no end in sight!
  Now imagine that you make the delicate suggestion after an hour or two that you might need some lube. His reply?
  "Girls don't need lube with me!"
  I think I had rug burns in my hooha!
  *Shudders*

• This must be our cue for: Vintage ad of the day!

In the "things you already may know corner:

• College kids are scary

• Kiddie beauty pageants are scarier

• and Carol Channing in this Alice in Wonderland clip is the scariest

Fascinatinly enough all tent to involve bad wigs, creepy mother figures and lots of fake smiles.
