There’s a Tumblr called “I(KEA) got 99 problems but a bitch ain’t one!” dedicated to poking fun at the sheer ridiculousness of IKEA deleting ALL images of women from their new Saudi Arabia catalog.

They really upped their game with this one.
The maniacs at Aggronautix have come up with another freaky bobblehead to add to your collection: Blowfly!
BLOWFLY is the alter ego of legendary singer songwriter Clarence Reid. The inventor of the Miami soul sound, Reid has written massive hits for KC and The Sunshine Band, Gwen McRae (1975’s R&B #1 hit ‘Rocking Chair’), Betty Wright and Sam and Dave along with his own successful recordings, most notably the hit ‘Nobody But You Babe’. Yet it is Reid’s mysterious and shocking alter-ego, BLOWFLY, which continues to shock and entertain audiences with his insane brand of funky X-Rated parody albums and filthy originals. With a career spanning nearly 50 years and over 20 albums, Blowfly’s 1965 recording, ‘Rap Dirty’ is often referenced as the first rap song and Blowfly was the first rapper to have a record banned! His albums are legendary and have been acknowledged as highly influential within the rap community.
Get yours right here. Limited edition of 500.
Check out this video of Blowfly and Jello Biafra (dressed as the Pope) at Oakland’s legendary Stork Club.

The clip with Newt Gingrich at approximately 1:40 is a fucking classic. Also, notice how Rick Santorum speaks of the multi-millionaire who beat him for the GOP nod with such unbridled contempt. You can tell that he absolutely hates Mitt Romney. Then again who can blame him? Santorum doesn’t even try to hide it. He can’t! (It almost makes me like him, but not quite).
Some Democrat-leaning PAC or The Daily Show or Rachel Maddow needs to make a slicker, nastier version of this puppy, pronto! There’s so much great material to work with.
Crimes against rock ‘n’ roll: Case #672 - hair band, name and origin unknown.
Can you name the myriad ways in which this fails?
Update: DM reader Justin has the answer. They’re Shotgun Messiah, a glam metal band originally from Sweden.
I don’t know. Sounds like Shotgun Messiah is shooting blanks.
Let there be keytars!
The first thing that should warn you off about the QChord electric zither is this statement:
“You will be making music with the exciting QChord right from the start even if you’ve never played an instrument before!”
And second, the fact that it’s very nearly impossible to play the wrong note on a QChord.
