    What the hell is going on in that first picture? Is that baby sucking on some sort of baby-electrocuting device? I can't figure out what that this is supposed to be.

    @korybing: Isn't it obvious? It's vintage electric S&M probes.

    I envision a FAIL written with every one of those pictures for some reason.


    Too much meme browsing...

    Ah... the old placing a lamp above your bath tub so you can read porn while bathing trick. It always comes back to bite you in the end :)

    @DW: I'm more fascinated by the fact that they had cylindrical service droids to fill the tubs for them back then.

    @Kaiser-Machead: I am not sure, but I think that is the hot water heater, which in this context I hope is gas powered and not electric. (Maybe coal or wood.)

    That peeing kid looks like he overdosed on Urigro. No way I could "complete that circuit"... from that range... with my stream.

    @OMG! Ponies!: I have second thoughts about this comment. Especially given that they are from Austria in the 1930s.


    No one deserves to die ever. Sorry - just feeling sensitive today.
