Conspiracy Sheep and Other Choice Links

Diversion: Maybe this, also sheep-related, reaction time test should be part of the NZ driving test? (Hat tip: Roger)
Picture this: All those believe-it-or-not-pictures you get in your inbox – how do you now if they’re real or fakes?
Gruesome accessory: Slit throat necklace.
My new favourite blog: Don’t Even Reply – Emails from an asshole. This guy e-mails people who post classified ads to wind them up and piss them off.
Original ad: litter of 6 kittens up for adoption! they are all 3 weeks old and are looking for a good home. contact if interested.
Reply from Mike Hunt: “I am interested in taking all six kittens off of your hands. How much do you want for them?” Mike
Reply from Shannon: “Mike, Are you going to take care of all of these kittens? I want to make sure they all find a good home, and was expecting to sell them one at a time. Are you able to house all six of them?”
From Mike Hunt to Shannon: “To be honest, I own a pet Bengal Tiger and he is on a strict diet of cats. I usually feed him one cat every couple of days, so this litter should hold him over for a while. Don’t worry though, I’ll take good care of the kittens until I feed them to him.”
From Shannon: “That is horrible! You will not get a single kitten from me. I really hope you are not serious.”
From Mike Hunt to Shannon: “I was kidding. I seriously need all six kittens though. Disregard anything I said about a tiger.”
From Shannon to Me: “NO!”
Video link: A New Zealand ad that never made it to our screens; Too dark.
Video: Claire Chitham tells American women to screw with their menstrual cycle…

There’s no link to your new favourite website…don’t tell me I actually have to Google it. Sigh.

As opposed to the “normal” contraceptive pill which doesn’t screw with the menstrual cycle at all – like by tricking your body into believing its already pregnant?

Is it just me or are there two shorty stars on that ad? Girl around 0:30 looks like the lesbian that was with Maya years ago. Also with a bad American accent.

Yeah, like we haven’t already been using our existing brand of pill to do this. Although I find 6mths more reasonable.

Okay, this is quite scary but I actually spot THREE former shorties actresses in that ad. Waverley, poor murdered Jay, AND mad American Riley who went all Glenn Close on Callum a whiles back.
I think I might have a problem.
