CHRISMUPDATE 5

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Sony Pictures made "The Interview" available online on Wednesday, a day before its theatrical release, after reversing a decision made a week ago to cancel the movie's release following a massive cyberattack.

(434): Omg this place. I'm at a neighborhood party. My mom has kissed two other moms. Where am I.

Supermarket | Melbourne, VIC, Australia

(I am sitting on the registers as the main cashier for the day when an older woman marches up to my counter.)

Me: “Good morning. How are you today?”

Customer #1: “I don’t have time for this chit chat. I just want to pay for this jar of coffee and go as I am in a hurry.”

(I scan the item and tell the customer the price of the item.)

Me: “That’ll be [total price].”

Customer #1: “Excuse me? How much?”

Me: “Um, the total for the jar of coffee is [total price].”

Customer #1: “That is far too much money; I’ll go choose another one.”

(The customer storms off leaving the original jar of coffee with me. I put it to the side of my register and serve several other customers during the customer’s absence. Another customer unpacks her groceries onto my till and I greet her.)

Me: “Hello. How are you?”

Customer #2: “I am good, thank you. How are you?”

Me: “I am very good, thanks.”

(Before I could start to scan Customer #2′s items, Customer #1 returns and slams a jar of coffee onto my register completely cutting in front of Customer #2. I notice the jar of coffee she has now selected is identical to her previous one.)

Customer #1: “I am next! Not this lady! Now, I want this coffee.”

Customer #2: “I don’t mind. Let her go first.”

(Customer #1 looks at Customer #2. Her eyes go wide for a moment. I interject.)

Me: “This is the same brand and size as the coffee you wanted before.”

Customer #1: “No, it is not. This one is cheaper than the previous one.”

(I scan the coffee and sure enough it is the same price as the one earlier.)

Me: “That’ll be [total price].”

Customer #1: “See? Much better.”

(After Customer #1 walks out of the shop Customer #2 begins laughing hysterically.)

Customer #2: “Sorry. I shouldn’t laugh, but she used to be my mother-in-law before my divorce and I am so glad she is annoying to everyone!”

(205): I mayyyyy have moaned a name that wasn't his.

(904): I just used my dick as to measure where my desk would go because I don't have a tape measure or a ruler.

This just might be the (exploding) face that launched a thousand hacks: one of the many variants of Kim Jong-un’s death scene from Sony’s notorious and possibly colossal-hack-causing movie The Interview. The clip has been leaked as part of the ongoing attack against the Japanese company; a hack that many have speculated was triggered by North Korean anger at the portrayal of their "beloved leader."

Although North Korean officials have denied any involvement in the attack, they previously described the film as an "act of war," before promising a "merciless response," and later praising the hack as a "righteous deed." The authority of North Korea's brutal, totalitarian regime leans heavily on the almost religious veneration of the ruling...

Does the flap of a butterfly's wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas? Not necessarily, but a labor dispute on the west coast of the United States has caused 3,135 Japanese McDonald's to restrict their sales of french fries. The dispute, between 20,000 dockworkers and the shipping lines that employ them at 29 ports, has lengthened the time it takes to get the required tonnage of frozen fried potatoes to Japan from two to four weeks.

The dispute, coupled with rail service delays, record levels of imports into the US, and other factors, means that McDonald's restaurants in the country will only be able to sell small portions of french fries over the busy new year period. Spokesperson Kokoro Toyama told Reuters that the situation was...

Cornered.

Haydenshapes Surfboards and Alexander Wang recently banded together to develop an exclusive installation named #TheCage22. Currently on display at the flagship Alexander Wang store in New York, the installation came out of the idea of creating a luxury surfboard that also acted as a visual art piece for the cage.

Not only did they require the surfboards to look artistic, they wanted to ensure that it maintained authenticity as an innovative surfboard.

The collection includes 5 marble print surfboards created by Wang and Haydenshapes’ founder, Hayden Cox. They were also handmade by Cox in the shape of ‘Hypto Krypto’, which was Australian Surf and Board Sports’ 2014 “Surfboard of the Year.”
