BP, now known as America’s douchiest syndicate, has admitted to altering photos of their oil spill cleanup efforts. So, not only are they drowning thousands of ocean creatures, ruining our recreational market, and stabbing our economy in the neck, they’re also drowning the American people…in their lies.

From Telegraph

“The oil giant was forced to issue new guidelines to staff to “refrain from doing (sic) cutting-and-pasting” after several official company images were found to have been doctored.

BP admitted on Thursday that it “Photoshopped” some of its official images that were posted on its website and vowed to stop the embarrassing practice.

For the second time in two days, the company was identified to have doctored images posted on its official website that were supposed to show how it was responding to the oil crisis in America.”

Things BP needs to improve on: operations management, balance sheet manipulation, lying.

A series reboot is always a challenging endeavor to hoist upon your shoulders *cough, cough Marvel* but the new Spider-Man resurrection does look promising. Meet the new Spider-Man, Josh Hutcherson. He’s some kid that’s been in some movies that I didn’t bother going to, and he looks more like the Ultimate version of Spider-Man as opposed to the cliche hunched-over shoulder nerd look that we’re used to. And with the addition of Marc Webb as the director, we could see a 180 degree turn in terms of overall look, feel, and  hopefully, suckness.

From Screen Rant

“Josh Hutcherson (Journey to the Center of the Earth) has been cast as Sony’s new Peter Parker in the upcoming Spider-Man reboot, which is being directed by Marc Webb (500 Days of Summer). This ends month of speculation about who would play the new Peter Parker/Spidey and (as with any big answer) opens the door to new questions…

Sony said early on the goal was to make the franchise more ‘youth-oriented’ and ‘gritty’ (apparently that’s not an oxymoron); Webb was hired to direct likely because of the stylish youth-cool vibe he created in 500 Days of Summer, and of course, the glaring pun of his name. But then we started hearing actors being nominated for Peter Parker who seemed a bit too old to be playing high school students (sorry Jim Sturgess).”

I swear to God, if there’s a scene where the characters break out into a musical number I’m going to lose it. Maybe I should bring some tomatoes and rotten lettuce just in case. Or a Vuvuzela.

“Unilever, the world’s largest ice cream manufacturer (Ben and Jerry’s, Breyers, Good Humor, Klondike, Wall’s), commissioned Sapient Nitro to make a $20,000 touchscreen ice cream vending machine. It’s called Share Happy and comes with facial recognition software that determines your gender, approximate age, and how much you’re smiling. Smile broadly enough, and you get free ice cream. Then it asks if it can use your picture for promotional purposes before sending it to Facebook with its built-in Ethernet, WiFi, or 3G. It also tells you you’re pretty enough to be a model, then pressures you into taking your top off “for art”.”
