CrossFit's repulsive mascots
Meet Pukie the Clown and Dr. Rhabdo, mascots for exercise program CrossFit. Pukie is pretty obvious - - exercise programs for men commonly boast of pushing participants past tolerance. But Rhabdo was a new one for me. Wikipedia explains:
Rhabdomyolysis is the rapid breakdown (lysis) of skeletal muscle (rhabdomyo) due to injury to muscle tissue. The muscle damage may be caused by physical (e.g., crush injury), chemical, or biological factors. The destruction of the muscle leads to the release of the breakdown products of damaged muscle cells into the bloodstream; some of these, such as myoglobin (a protein), are harmful to the kidney and may lead to acute kidney failure.CrossFit is used by the military, and at least one sailor has sued, claiming that participation in the program destroyed his kidneys.
T-shirts are available.

The Prisoner's Dilemma on Bachelor Pad
The season finale of Bachelor Pad featured the two finalists facing the Prisoner's Dilemma. $250,000 was up for grabs. The finalists were told the rules and then sent to separate rooms: If they both chose to keep it, then they got nothing, and the money went to the other participants in the show. If one chose to keep, and the other chose to share, then the "keeper" got it all. If they both chose to share, then they'd split the money evenly. I'm not going to post the answer because it's pretty suspenseful and well worth watching.
(I learned from an Alan Moore comic that your best bet is to agree to share/help each other.) Via.
