Vegan restaurant overrun by cockroaches because owner didn't want to harm them.

0
0

This restaurant is the safest place to eat if you are a cockroach. If you're a human... not so much.


It isn't just a kitchen, it's a wildlife sanctuary.

Australian restaurant Kingsland Vegan promises that, "weather you're a vegan or a staunch carnivore, you'll be delighted by Kingsland's unique and diverse range of tastes and textures."

One of the things that could be making those tastes and textures so unique and diverse could be related to ACT Health inspectors discovering live and dead cockroaches in the kitchen in April 2013.

When Kingsland Vegan owner Khanh Hoang was interviewed about the bugs by health officials, Hoang said he was aware of the infestation but, as the Brisbane Times noted, "did not carry out pest control measures as it involved 'killing.'"

Hoang's lawyer said "his client had passionate vegan values but accepted, in hindsight, that his morals had been misguided."

His passionate vegan values must have also misguided him from cleaning his restaurant at all. In addition to the protected cockroach population, the ACT found a number of other health violations of the Food Act, including:

"The toilet did not have an air-lock or self-closing door, which meant it opened directly into the kitchen.

Food had been stored in uncovered containers inside the dishwasher and freezer.

A missing tap handle meant the hand washing basin could not supply warm running water.

Surfaces and equipment – such as stove top and dirty pots, pans and trays – had been left uncleansed [sic], and covered in dirt, food waste and debris.

Parts of the walls and floors had not been cleaned for a considerable period and had a thick accumulation of grease, dirt, and other material."

WHAT OTHER MATERIAL????

While saving his bug brethren, this guy was clearly endangering the lives of his humans.

Despite being immediately shut down for obvious and disgusting reasons, the restaurant was allowed to reopen six days later and has since been held in a "pristine" state.

Shame. Now I ask you, would you rather eat some cockroaches, or try whatever is in this "Fish Lagoon?"

Drunk guy responds to his own drunk text message.

Ugh, how embarrassing for no one.

Ever get so drunk you texted an ex and then woke up to a world full of regret?

Of course you have. We all have. But unlike 19-year-old Marcus, of Oxford, you probably never got so drunk that you texted yourself. If you did, you'd likely have no regrets—only a hilarious screengrab that went viral.

We're sure your parents are proud to pay for that data plan, Marcus.

New beginnings.

Man charged with ZUI for drunk-driving a Zamboni.

I didn't know you were allowed to do this job sober.

Zambonehead. (via WDAZ)

On Friday night, Intoxicated human Steven Anderson went from being the coolest guy at the Southside Arena in Fargo, to the guy with a great story to tell his accidental grandkids after being arrested for DUI for drunk-driving a Zamboni.

"Tell us again how you got arrested for drunk driving the Zamboni, grandpa!"

Anderson was arrested during the second period of a girl's high school hockey game Friday night, after he was visibly drunk while driving the Zamboni across the rink.

"Larson said spectators and school officials noticed the erratic Zamboni driving and a Fargo Public Schools employee called Fargo Police," reported WDAZ.

The erratic Zamboni driver might not be great for high school hockey, but it used to be a killer dance move at Studio 54.

No one was hurt, but Anderson was booked into Cass County Jail on suspicion of DUI.

I think they mean ZUI.

Officials called another Zamboni driver in, but decided to let the girls play on the rough ice instead of waiting.

Come on! That's got to be at least as dangerous as letting a drunk behind the wheel of an ice resurfacer! You don't even need a license to drive one! Pound a cold one, steel your courage, and resurface that ice!


'Better Call Saul' premieres next week. Here are all his best one-liners from 'Breaking Bad.'

Wait...that lawyer wasn't Kevin Costner?

When Breaking Bad ended, we were all thinking the same thing: when are we going to get another quality drama about the Albuquerque legal scene? Well, the wait is over because Better Call Saul will be premiering next week on AMC, starring Bob Odenkirk as everyone's favorite Irish-turned-Jewish criminal lawyer, James McGill Saul Goodman. In honor of this auspicious occasion, TastefullyOffensive created this retrospective of Saul's best one-liners, and I mean "best" in the way that Saul is the "best" lawyer, i.e. delightfully corrupt and brilliantly filthy.

If your husband shoves a camera in front of your face while you are opening a present, he better be getting you something good.

Rob Wiltsey's wife has been dreaming her whole life of visiting England but could never afford to go. After a year and a half, he finally saved up enough money for him to be able to video tape his wife's reaction to his incredible generosity.

She thinks she is getting a photo album so that she has somewhere to put her pictures in case she ever gets to take a trip to England. Wiltsey's wife, in all her goodness, pretends to think it is a really cool gift (even though no one has physical prints anymore), until she gets to the end where he has stashed tickets for them to take a month long trip later this year.

She totally cries.

This pixel art tribute to The Simpsons is also one of the best couch gags ever made.

PIXEL BART IS NOT REAL BART

Animators and pixel artists Paul Robertson and Ivan Dixon already have their bizarre 8-bit creations on TV over at Adult Swim, but this tribute to the grandaddy of animated shows currently on television comes straight from the heart (or more likely, a computer). Accompanied by a synthesized theme song from musician Jeremy Dower, this awesome intro is made with graphics from the era the Simpsons began, and it's chock-full of Easter eggs in every frame for fans of the series.

The second-craziest couch gag ever...and of the year.

This all culminates in a hallucinatory, reference-laden couch gag for the ages. It would probably be called the trippiest couch gag of all time if the Simpsons hadn't locked down that title this fall with the much-blogged-about intro created by Academy Award-winning animator Don Herzfeldt.


NYPD urges people thinking of drunk driving not to be as dumb as the Seahawks.

I hope the NYPD notified the paramedics before administering this burn.


The New York Police Department: guardians of sportsmanlike conduct.

Seahawks fans are still extremely sensitive about the last-minute interception that allowed the Patriots to snatch Super Bowl victory from the jaws of defeat, but the NYPD has never been one to allow sensitivity to get in the way of their public duty. This very blunt tweet comes to you from the NYPD's 34th Precinct, which covers the far northern end of Manhattan (where there are several important highways and the world's busiest bridge for car traffic—the George Washington). If you're a Seahawks fan, you probably feel like this is already "too soon," but incredibly this tweet actually went out last night right after the game ended. Ooof! (That said, right after the game is prime time for DUIs.)

No word on what comparison they would use for someone who got arrested for drunk-driving a Zamboni at a high school girls' hockey game.

Job well done.

Don Lemon's shirtless selfie with hilariously stupid caption reminds us how poorly Americans understand vaccines.

Don Lemon makes an unintended point about measles vaccines with photo of his smallpox vaccine scar.

CNN Anchor Don Lemon, one of the worst journalists of 2014, has something to say about this whole vaccine controversy (that isn't really a controversy because obviously everyone should vaccinate their kids).

I think his intended point is that a) he has a smooth and attractive collarbone and b) perhaps measles vaccines are no longer needed (which is idiotic, considering there is currently an outbreak). But the point he's actually making is that Americans don't know anything about vaccines.

That scar on your shoulder isn't from a measles vaccine, Don. It's from a smallpox vaccine. Yep, that deadly disease we successfully eradicated—through the magic of vaccinations.

Little goat desperately tries to headbutt giant horse.

It's PLATONIC, okay?

Damn, this video really reminds me of when I used to pick fights with boys I was crushing on in middle school. If you're too immature to express your feelings or you're a baby goat, then a playful headbutt is one way to connect with the object of your affections.

These two have even more to overcome than hormonal pre-teens. I mean, a goat may love a horse, but where would they live? Oh, right....a barn. Hurray!

Hillary Clinton just tweeted her support of vaccines with the least persuasive hashtag ever.

Hillary Clinton muddied her perfectly clear statement about the science behind vaccines with a weird hashtag about grandmas.

Yech. Grandmothers know best?

I realize this tweet is more of a campaign platform than anything, but shouldn't that be #ScientistsKnowBest? My grandmothers believed in all sorts of nonsense, like that you shouldn't have hot soup and cold drinks together, but that eating raw egg in cake batter was perfectly fine.

This plays right into the hands of the anti-vaxxers, who actually, wrongly believe parents know better than scientists on this particular issue. Let's save #GrandmothersKnowBest for things like book recommendations, chicken soup recipes, and whatever specific I could put here that wouldn't seem sexist.

This Super Bowl shark dance flipbook is incredible and not just because someone bothered to make it.

Because we live every week like it's shark week.

Never leave us, Super Bowl Sharks! You danced into our hearts during that acid-trip, PSA halftime show and the audience immediately identified with you. Everyone watching knew that they were either a Left Shark or a Right Shark. Either you're flying free where the music takes you or you're hitting your mark HARD: And one, and two, and three!

The Internet has exploded with hilarious tributes to you, but with this flip book by YouTube artist The Flippest we can finally rest easy. In post-apocalyptic times, when electricity and drinking water are scarce, we will gather around the burning trash can to relive your glory through The Flip.

It may seem obvious to us which one is guilty of tearing the tissues, but something is troubling me...

What is this piece of trash sitting on the couch next to you, Gnarly?


You didn't think I would notice the dirty piece of tissue that followed you up to the couch after you violently thrashed the tissues to bits???


Plus, you're acting pretty relaxed for a dog whose brother has a box on his head, know what I mean? Why so calm? Is it because of THIS?


You didn't think I would notice the joint on the floor only one inch away from the scene of the crime?


J'accuse!

A 5th-grade teacher tried to teach her students about Internet safety, with predictably laughable results. (Again)

This is, believe it or not, a Photoshopped image.

Way back in the ancient times of November 2013, a 5th grade teacher posed with a piece of paper saying she wanted to teach her class a lesson about Internet privacy about how far a picture can spread online. She ended up becoming one of the most hilarious memes of the year. It seemed the lesson was learned, but of course there is one major problem: humanity keeps producing babies who have absolutely no clue about anything that happened in the world before they started to pay attention... usually around the 5th grade. So, this week a 5th-grade (or P5) teacher in Scotland had to do it all over again.


Oh, the terrible places your photo will go!

In the process, she taught them another valuable Internet lesson: if you wait long enough, you can steal someone's idea and get all the same results. The disturbingly creative minds over at reddit's r/Photoshopbattles forum helped make sure she achieved that.


She could have just taught her students about the original teacher.

Mayor gets the weather report and possibly rabies on Groundhog Day.

Groundhog opens itty-bitty ear piercing salon, he's the earring.

Jimmy the Groundhog does NOT like secrets. He doesn't like whispering into anyone's ear, even if they're the mayor of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, and wearing an old time-y hat. Yeah, spring is coming early this year, who wants to know?

Mayor Jonathan Freund found out the hard way that, though Jimmy is a magical rodent who can determine the weather, his instincts kick in when cornered. And his instincts are telling him, Chomp Chomp Chomp. Apparently, Mayor Freund holds no grudges, saying to reporters, "He is always welcome in Sun Prairie."

Shout out to the reporter struggling to pronounce "prognostication", a word that gets dusted off every February 2nd then put away, much like the Mayor's hat.
