For those of you not familiar with the band, this is what Dimmu Borgir sounds like:

You also might recognize Shagrath (their lead singer) from his guest appearance in the Kamelot song, March of Mephisto. Hear it and see the video here.

Cue the disturbing Pokemon picture:

National Geographic has reported that a “Sex Tree” called Citropsis articulata is near extinction. This tree believed to enhance wee wees. It is located in the rain forest of Uganda. Apparently men need their wee wees to stay up badly enough to decimate the entire population of these trees.

Disturbing Pokemon picture found on the Wizard forums. Sex Tree article found by me while typing insane things into google.

I will NEVER do that again. T_T

Anyone who uses WordPress to blog had best read Harknell’s post about problems with the new version. It looks like the new version breaks a lot of things that people use and it’s more difficult to use! If you do not upgrade, your blog is insecure, but if you do upgrade, your blog will break unless you know how to code! :/

…This points to one major issue I see with the Wordpress development team–they have a very limited acceptance of the idea of backward compatibility. Starting with version 2.2 they have released new major versions that actively break backward compatibility on a wide range of plugins and themes. While I understand that this is sometimes needed for security reasons, in these cases it was simply because they redesigned the way something worked. This is where a “compatibility mode” or some other backward compatibility mode is really required…

Dear Sephora,

I am writing to you because I have had a bad experience regarding the sanitation of your Bridgewater Commons store located in New Jersey.

I purchased a lip gloss which appeared to be in a closed box. When I got it home, it seemed to be a little dried up…then I looked closer and I had noticed that it might have been used. Of course I returned it and got a refund, but I wanted to tell you that your store is gross.

I’m scared to ask for help on any of the products because I don’t want anyone putting any of the display samples on me. All of the cosmetics have been poked, prodded, and otherwise molested by the customers. Every customer has stuck their hands in these samples. Are these nasty opened samples the same things that are used on the customers faces? Or am I mistaken?

I’ve shopped with you for a while, but I have to say, I’m getting grossed out. I went and bought my lip gloss at a freestanding counter in a department store rather than exchanging it.

Does anyone work at a Sephora? Can you explain to me how the store works? Do they train you a lot? Do they expect you to put the nasty samples on people? Is the shop you work at better than this?

The upcoming Korpiklaani album, Korven Kuningas is to be released on March 25th in the USA. Check out this trailer preview if you are into drunken Finnish folk metal:

The Special Edition comes with a drinking horn, but I don’t know if they ship to the USA. Seriously. A drinking horn:
