It’s a Thursday night and normally I watch Fringe. But apparently Fox and the MLB Playoffs have joined forces to ruin my night (because Baseball is on instead of Fringe. Just in case you didn’t get that. Also, I almost just mistyped “Fringe” as “Fridge”. Where was I). So instead I’ve decided to post an “internet roundup”. Because while the Interspace webbs are normally filled with endless fun, today seemed especially endlessly fun. Here we go!

Bed bugs at Mediavest, in NYC
Disgusting? Yes. Leave it to NYC to be filthy.

Advertising vs. Reality
A hilarious comparison of food packaging imagery, versus what it looks like once you actually make it.

Cheerleader Gets Flu Shot, Now Can Only Walk Backwards
A sad story indeed.

Hulu to Begin Charging in 2010
Why? Just, why?

My favorite overheard quotes of the day
“Can we post this onto the Twingle?”
“Do you think this should go onto that FaceSpace thing?”
“They like their logo big. So start out smaller than normal, and by the end, it may actually be a normal size.”

What I learned today
Today my co-worker informed me that it is now officially taboo to cover your mouth with your hand when you cough. Instead, and what children are now being told, is that you’re supposed to cough into your elbow. Why? Because then the germs are on your clothes, instead of on your hand. Makes more sense? I thought so. Looks classy too. I guess instead of hand sanitizer we now need elbow sanitizer.

On Twitter I decided to ask people, if society went to shit, what’s the number one thing they’d miss?
I was disappointed with my answers. Amuse me better next time, people. Answers included “The internet”, “Life”, and quite possibly the weirdest, “toilet paper with aloe lotion.” Okay, no one actually said that. That’s the thing I’d miss most. Don’t laugh. That stuff is possibly better than the Internet.

Well that’s all. Go check your Myface and your Tweeter now. Isn’t that what kids do?
