Did you know that Bhabhi means MILF in India?

You had me at ding-dong!

You had me at ding-dong!

This was news to me, but apparently pornography isn’t allowed in India.  Additionally, the word for MILF in india is Bhabhi!  How do I know this?  Well, I went to India and tried to pick up some hot married women at a little neighborhood bar.  After 5 failed attempts and 8 bottles of Kingfisher, I was clued in by some locals that I should be asking for a Bhabhi!  No, I’m kidding, I’ve never been to India.  Actually, a faithful reader of flipvine, who shall remain anonymous (hi Jess! thanks for sending this in), emailed in a link to an article entitled “India’s first porn start dead?“  This of course sounded incredibly ordinary (I’m thinking old chick w/ super saggy tits who was a porn star in India in lets say the 50s or something, dies of natural causes, etc, etc..).  After giving it a read-over, a couple of interesting facts emerged:

Thanks to an anonymous group of computer geeks, India’s first international internet porn star is fast becoming this conservative country’s answer to Wonder Woman — and Monica Lewinsky.

But here’s the trick: The steamy web seductress is a cartoon.

So I’m thinking Hentai-style anime/manga kinda thing.  But no, ladies end gentlemen, this is a cultural phenomenon.

Though pornography is illegal in India, Savita Bhabhi’s sexual misadventures, published on savitabhabhi.com with scripts based on fantasies submitted by fans, have attracted a huge following, according to one of the strip’s anonymous creators, who goes by the screen name Deshmukh.

The Wingman (we’re bringing back the Wingman Song too)

In response to sinkpock’s excellent Total Babe post I submit to you – The Wingman, because for every Total Babe, as sinkpock demonstrated, there is an incredibly ugly friend that needs to be distracted.

When the going gets tough, the dogs get going

July 29th, 2009 11:46pm by flipvine

Dogs pee – nothing special here. But every once in a while they get creative and this ladies and gentlemen, borders on .. art? For instance, take a look at Chester, the incredible peeing dog. I’m quite sure the dog’s trying to write something, but I’m no expert in graffiti, so I can’t quite make it out:

Do NOT Talk to My Parrot!

July 29th, 2009 10:59pm by flipvine

parrot-and-dogIts been a while since we’ve posted a decent joke, so I figured I’d propagate this one that just got sent to me as part of a mass-mail.

Wanda’s dishwasher quit working so she called in a repairman. Since she had to go to work the next day, she told the repairman, “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll mail you a check. Oh, by the way don’t worry about my dog Spike. He won’t bother you.”

“But, whatever you do, do NOT, under ANY circumstances, talk to my parrot!”

“I MUST STRESS TO YOU: DO NOT TALK TO MY PARROT!!!”

When the repairman arrived at Wanda’s apartment the following day, he discovered the biggest, meanest looking dog he has ever seen. But, just as she had said, the dog just lay there on the carpet watching the repairman go about his work.

The parrot, however, drove him nuts the whole time with his incessant yelling, cursing and name calling.

Finally the repairman couldn’t contain himself any longer and yelled,

“Shut up, you stupid, ugly bird!”

To which the parrot replied,

“Get him Spike!”

See – Men just don’t listen!

Do Buildings Dream of Brick-Shaped-Sheep? (this video will blow your mind)

July 29th, 2009 03:28pm by flipvine

electric_sheepPhilip K. Dick wrote a book called Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (the movie Blade Runner is based on it in fact). Well, here’s an answer to the same question with regards to buildings:

555 KUBIK
“How it would be, if a house was dreaming”

The conception of this project consistently derives from its underlying architecture – the theoretic conception and visual pattern of the Hamburg Kunsthalle. The Basic idea of narration was to dissolve and break through the strict architecture of O. M. Ungers “Galerie der Gegenwart”. Resultant permeabilty of the solid facade uncovers different interpretations of conception, geometry and aesthetics expressed through graphics and movement. A situation of reflexivity evolves – describing the constitution and spacious perception of this location by means of the building itself.

Honestly, if I didn’t know what was going on and all of a sudden a building facade came to life like that in front of me, I would probably be shitting bricks (pun.. umm.. intended I guess?).  In any case, watch and enjoy, this is probably one of the few educational and non-junky posts you’re gonna see here on flipvine, but they do happen ;)
