The Truth About Semen (And More Sex Myths!)

All it takes is one quick look at our daily site statistics in order to understand that the DAPS audience is primarily made up of perverts. That’s right, we’re on to you and your dirty little secret.  It’s cool though, we don’t judge… actually, we like sex monsters. It’s because of that we’d like to share the following with you.

Oh sorry, I probably should have given you a little bit more context than that, huh? Over at Men’s Health there’s a nifty little list called “The truth about the 12 hottest sex myths” which i’m pretty confident you guys would be interested in.

To read that whole list, go here. (That is if you didn’t know to click the link looking text above ;])

If you just can’t get enough sex information then you really should be spending more of your time over at Jane Blow’s site. She is a registered sexpert after all.

OMFG, THEY SOLVED THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE THING?!?

Photo from NOAA's National Ocean Service's Flickr

That’s right kiddies! According to the all knowing internets I’ve learned the following:

Computer studies of ocean floors around the world, particularly the area known as The Bermuda Triangle, reveal evidence of massive methane explosions in the past. For years, believers in the paranormal, aliens, and other outlandish theories pointed to the the disappearance of ships and aircraft as an indicator of mysterious forces at work in the “Devil’s triangle.” Scientists have finally pointed the rest of us to a more plausible cause.

The presence of methane hydrates indicates enormous eruptions of methane bubbles that would swamp a ship, and projected high into the air- take out flying airplanes, as well.

Any ships caught within the methane mega-bubble immediately lose all buoyancy and sink to the bottom of the ocean. If the bubbles are big enough and possess a high enough density they can also knock aircraft out of the sky with little or no warning. Aircraft falling victim to these methane bubbles will lose their engines-perhaps igniting the methane surrounding them-and immediately lose their lift as well, ending their flights by diving into the ocean and swiftly plummeting.

Holy Crap! This is pretty big news.  Finally, the paranoia I feel about my cruise ship sinking is justified! Take that security officers of the Disney Wonder!

Editor’s Note: By the way, this has nothing to do with the fake-ass methane bubble that was going to kill us all.  You’re still safe =)

Have You Seen the Footage of the UFO That Shut Down a Chinese Airport?

Well here it is folks:

Now I have a soft spot in my heart for UFOs and Aliens, but I find myself being very skeptical about a lot of the so called proof. This video blew me away though. I have no reasonable explanation for what happens at :31. A lot of people are saying it’s a rocket, but I can’t buy that.

New Way to Get High – iDosing

BELIEVE IT Bro, now we can get high on any drug we want at the click of a motha fuckin mouse.

Okay, so now I’m gonna try this shit because I believe that feeling high isn’t bad for you. (Destroying your body, and breaking the law is kinda not cool.)

I’ve found i-doser.com and decided to spend the $5 on their iPhone app (iTunes link) after seeing a number of YouTube videos with positive results. The way this works is, I listen to the Binaurial Beats provided by the app using my headphones. Here are my results:

How Carlo Picks What To Post – Old Timey Ghostbusters Commercial

In case you didn’t know, my whole take on finding stuff on the internet is trying to find the less shitty kernel of corn, in a bathtub of after-chili bowel movements. It’s a pretty bleak existence if you ask me. But I get to do it in my underwear while drinking so LAY OFF.

Anyway, I saw this over at Vulture and was like “God this is going to suck. Lemme look at it.” And you know what, I was pleasantly surprised.

Now this isn’t like “OMG Awesome” (although many will give it that pass just for the Ghostbusters angle) but it’s def not bad. Let me show you how I pick a topic, and then write a post about it.

Dry, Unused, Penis Goes Missing. No Not Yours, King Tut’s.

Being the philanthropist that I am, I’ve been trying to figure out a way to breathe some new life into Disney’s National Treasure franchise. Just to be clear; By “trying to figure out” I mean that I thought about Nicholas Cage on the bowl a couple of times.

While, doing my best “The Thinker” simply didn’t work out, glancing at my twitter stream did the trick (as per usual.) Thanks to my good friend @MSeech, I was introduced to a news story just begging to be “Ripped from the headlines” straight into the hearts of Disney/Nicholas Cage Fans:

Rumors swirling that King Tut’s penis was stolen because of its alleged small size

In a case one solve-able by the Gates family, The Egyptian prince’s cock penis cock has lost it’s way:

Where in the world is King Tut’s missing member?

The Egyptian boy king’s penis may have been swiped because the 19-year-old royal was less-than-endowed, raising the concept of a possible anatomical conspiracy, according to Time Magazine.

This much is certain though: that particular body part has disappeared, and it appears that the clandestine castration took place relatively recently. (Via NY Daily News)

Ok, so there’s a conspiracy theory about King Tut’s penis being stolen because people didn’t want other people to know about his Irish (McGyptian?) side. In reality, we all know for a fact that Pharaohs had HUGE dicks …and that’s where Mr. Zahi Hawass comes in:

Zahi Hawass, Egypt’s chief archaeologist, says that the 19-year-old king was actually well-developed

WELL DEVELOPED?!?! Whoa buddy, how would one know those kind of intimate details especially concerning mummies?! I actually had it figured out in an earlier conversation with DAPS editor Carlo:

The truth is, I’m probably right.

But, I know I’m not going to keep up with this story because frankly, it was funny for a minute.. but I’ve already lost interest. That is, unless Disney wants to talk to me about a treatment. ;)

The Mythbusters Episode You’ll NEVER See

There are few things in life that will universally always be cool: Bill Murray, The Roots, pre-marital sex, and Mythbusters.

Seriously, I have yet to find a single person who hates Mythbusters; deservedly so, because how can you hate a show that has the discovery factor of learning something interesting while also combining primal-childlike buzzwords like Robots, Explosions, Speed, Fire.

But apparently there is one Myth that you will never see busted on tv.

Host Adam Savage recently revealed at a Q & A about one particular myth that they tried that, at first, sounds a bit ho-hum, but, trust us, has a fairly awesome twist ending.

Five 90’s Cartoon Characters That Could Fix The BP Oil Spill

Because we at DAPS care so much about the recent BP oil spill nostalgia; we asked ourselves a very important question: “If we were still 7 years old, who would we call upon to assist in the clean-up?”

Naturally, every answer would include cartoons, right? Well, Here are the five 90’s cartoon characters that we feel would be best suited to clean up all of that nasty oil.

Editor’s Note: By the way, how’s your Hummer doing?

Gizmoduck:

Using General Snozzie to sniff out the oil spill, with a call of “blathering blatherskite,” Gizmoduck would spring into action, doing…well, I don’t quite know. Yeah, he’s got gizmos and such (hence gizmoduck), but chances are he would bumble things up something bad. Although he could use a gizmovac to suck-up all the oil, he would still doom all of humanity by sucking up all the water as well. Good job, you glorified Inspector Gadget/duck hybrid.

If You’ve Never Seen Giraffes Fight, It’s Exactly How You’d Imagine It.

Have you ever closed your eyes and wondered what it would be like if two grown-ass giraffes had some kind of beef and just went at it? I know I have, and until now I’ve never seen the real thing. Luckily for me, there’s some video in the youtubes uploaded by some tourists that I can’t understand.

Enjoy!
