Fighting Homophobia - One Cupcake At A Time

In the dictionary under "awesome", there should be a picture of these kids and their rainbowlicious cupcakes. From The Daily What:

While St. Joseph Catholic Secondary School begrudgingly allowed its unofficial gay-straight alliance to hold its anti-homophobia event, it banned the display of rainbows, which the Ontario-based institution said are “associated with Pride.” 

“There’s so many other things that a rainbow could be,” said the unofficial GSA’s 16-year-old founder, Leanne Iskander. “It’s ridiculous.” 

Refusing to let the school’s anti-rainbow policy stop them from being Proud [ed. - and AWESOME], the students decided to bake multicolored cupcakes and arrange them in a rainbow pattern. The best part? There were rainbows baked inside. 

The event wasn’t without its hitches — the school banned most of the group’s literature on gender identity and safe sex and refused to allow the money raised to be donated to an LGBT charity — but Iskander vows to keep fighting the good fight until every Catholic school in Ontario has its own official GSA.

I told you they were awesome.

United States of Awesome

A follow up to yesterday's United States of Shame (via Joe.My.God).

I can vouch for PA's "Most Hunters" (although I'm not so sure why it's "awesome") - schools in my hometown are still closed on the first day of deer hunting season.

And Kentucky is "Best Armed", which in my opinion is definitely NOT awesome.

I Pray This Is Real: McRibbles

This is supposedly a leaked ad for McDonald's latest product - McRibbles.  Basically, they are McRib sandwiches in McNugget form.

Dear Baby Jeebus: Thank you for hearing and answering my prayers.  Amen.
