Natalie Dylan’s one-year saga of hawking the privilege of popping her cherry to anyone with a truckload of cash has now at last come near its conclusion:
“I feel good; it’s been over a year,” Natalie exclusively tells TheFABlife of her auction coming to a close. Life for Natalie has been quite a rollercoaster since she [...]

A German company called Vivaeros has launched a scent, Vulva Original. Nope, it’s NOT a perfume, just the “irresistible smell that exudes from a sensuous vagina.” Apparently, there’s a healthy consumer market consisting of people who want their fingers smelling of “sensuous vagina” all the time, anywhere they go, or wherever the need for a [...]

Made of meat loaf, ketchup, onions and cheese, this “meat hand” comes handy for whatever pagan food fest you engage in.

If you have limnophobia, this breathtaking view of a serene lake would have given you the screaming mimies.

Just one of the 29 rare and unusual phobias that plague mankind.

Some people might say that this cover of the Beatles song “Yesterday” by this ventriloquist group called the VentriloChoir is “extremely creepy,” but I’m not sure. Because all I feel is reaching for the nearest knife and stabbing my neck and screaming “jesus fucking christ!” over and over. Is that bad?

Fruit bats, specifically the females of the greater short-nosed fruit bats (Cynopterus sphinx), were observed to perform oral sex on the male. Apparently, the following are the benefits.
(1) The activity may increase lubrication and thus prolong copulation, in turn assisting transport the transport of sperm or stimulating secretions in the female bat’s pituitary gland, thereby [...]

Iceland, who had been warmly welcomed by the Third World last year, is now McDonald’s free, with the country’s franchiser calling it quits over dismally rising prices.
Iceland’s McDonald’s Corp. restaurants will be closed at the end of the month after the collapse of the krona eroded profits at the fast-food chain, McDonald’s franchise holder Lyst [...]

I don’t know why I keep writing about these freaky frightening walking robot things Boston Dynamics churns out, but maybe because I hold the same fascination of one looking at his future overlord-executioner. The company is making “great” strides with its Petman bipedal robot, whose awesomeness can be observed in the youtube video below. We [...]

UC Berkeley’s Biomimetics Lab created this 16-gram hexapedal robot called Dynamic Autonomous Sprawled Hexapod, or just DASH. But another “just” can be applied to what DASH can do: it just wouldn’t fucking die. It can be dropped from a height of 28 meters and it would still be up on its six feet and [...]

Hmmm. Somebody who has written a book about Google has written a top 10 things list about Google, specifically on the matter of lessons. Or 10 things Google has taught us. Like passion, focus, vision, customer is king, wah wah wah. NOT exactly new new, but it contains words like “frenemy” and “life is long [...]

To add more to the worry that robots would soon rise up and kill us and drink our blood and eat the intestines of our children, here’s another: as aid to human burglars, although unwittingly, by means of the existing “security holes” in the home wireless network.
Among the worrying security issues they discovered was that [...]

Life gathered 30 really dumb inventions, probably to point out their sheer dumbness. Like this curved barrel machine gun [below]. Yeah, it’s designed to do exactly whatever hilariously deadly shit you’re thinking.

Italian and Swedish scientists have developed the first robotic hand that can “feel”, made possible by connecting human nerve ending with tiny electronic sensors. Now said robotic hand is used by a 22-year-old previously hand-less man who lost it through cancer.

That messy human business of getting old and dying is going to be kaput by 2029, so say aging and increasingly desperate top scientists. They’re descending on Manhattan Beach from November 13 to 15 and do some top scientist stuff, like talk about gene therapy, nanotechnology and “Organ Re-Growth and Transplantation,” and maybe slap one [...]

This guy has it.
Jarrette Schule was cutting down trees on his rural property Tuesday in Comal County when he noticed a green metallic tube on the muddy ground.
“I had never seen it before,” said Schule, a 34-year-old Web developer. “I looked at it, and it kind of looked like a missile launcher.”
Schule took a closer [...]

Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the Internet and also me in a parallel universe, was interviewed on stage at the Embassy of Finland in Washington recently. And among some pretty interesting things he discussed (aside from describing a photo of a squirrel with huge testicles, and cats!) was the fact of the unnecessaryness of the [...]

At the Ogori Cafe somewhere in Japan, you get not what you ordered, but the ones ordered by the person before you. And so on and so forth. So if the dude before you ordered something like what the janitor mops up from the floor after a spirited bukkakke, that’s what you’ll eat. The only [...]
