Embarrassing Facebook Status Messages

Sometimes, when we say too much information.. we really mean it.

Dating Site Deletes Fat People

How would you like being deleted from a website because you gained weight?  This scenario happened to 5,000 people following the 2009 holidays on the dating site BeautifulPeople.com.  The site which claims to be “the sexiest website in the world today,” wiped the pounds right off their site.  That’s right, you gain 10lbs and you are outta here.  Who doesn’t gain 10lbs following Thanksgiving turkey dinners, holiday cookies, and drinks at New Years?

According to a company statement from BeautifulPeople.com, they sent emails to the kicked out members that they could reapply after losing their spare tire.   CNN says the following got deleted by country: 1,520 users from the U.S., 832 from the U.K., 533 from Canada, 510 from Poland, 425 from Germany, 402 from Italy, 323 from France, 220 from Denmark, 176 from Turkey and 88 people from Russia.

Today Is Not Just Another Day, It’s YouTube Porn Day

Did you wake up this morning thinking this was just another day?  If you did think again.  Today, Wednesday January 6th, is YouTube Porn Day. This was announced from the infamous message board 4chan.  This special day was created in response to YouTube, who is owned by Google, banning an account called lukeywes1234.  It’s unclear what caused the ban since the videos have been removed, but 4chan has taken exception.  So what should we expect:

• Mass video uploads will occur around the same time, which will make it impossible for YouTube’s security filters to block porn.
• Nothing it’s a hoax
• The massive video site crashes
• YouTube gives in and reinstates lukeywes1234
• Everyone watches Free Porn

It’s unsure whether YouTube has the security in place to efficiently handle massive uploads. Most likely they have unmanned filters in place which will be overloaded with data. We will be watching this one closely just in case wide scale porn hits the most popular video site in the world.

While you are contemplating your next move check out this tribute video to lukeywes1234:

World of Warcraft Catches A Criminal

You can’t get anything past the boys at the Howard County Police Department, as Alfred Hightower has soon learned. Apparently Hightower was wanted for several counts of drug dealing and drug possession, but before the police could catch him, he fled the country into Canada.

However, Deputy Matt Roberson soon learned that Hightower was a fan of the popular online role-playing game, World of Warcraft and decided to seek the help of parent company, Blizzard, in finding their prep. The search turned up beautifully, as once Blizzard Entertainment was served a subpoena, they released information to the police which led them directly to Hightower’s doorstep.

Lesson learned here is fleeing to a virtual world to hide from your crimes in the real world can get you caught, as Hightower is being extradited back to the United States in several charges of drug dealing and possession.
