Thanks Pinot

This has to be the strangest thing ever. What the hell is alcohol free vodka? How is that even possible?

Blue ZERO is specifically targeted for Muslim consumers worldwide since it is Halal approved.

Blue ZERO non alcohol vodka tastes and looks exactly like traditional Canadian Vodka.

They also have alcohol free Tequila, Whisky, Rum and Cognac! It’s gotta be a hoax. Even if it isn’t I highly doubt airport customs would believe you if you told them it was alcohol free. [Link]

On the left is a Double Shack Burger smothered with Nutella. On the right is KFC’s Mighty Zinger shoved between a Krispy Kreme glazed donut and a strawberry-filled one. Yay or Nay? Fahad actually ate them! [Link]

I have no idea what this is. I was invited by a friend to the OMBEY Facebook page and the only information available there was “To raise awareness”. I’m intrigued. [Link]

The coolest/freakiest/creepiest thing I’ve seen online for ages. I’m not going to ruin it, just visit the website and connect it with your Facebook then sit back and watch. [Link]

That can’t be safe…

Thanks Khaled

I know this sounds weird and I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around it but according to an article on the Hotelier website it seems they’re planning on bringing the famous Swedish Ice Hotel to Kuwait. The Ice Hotel is basically a hotel built out of ice and everything inside is made of ice so I have no idea how this will work in Kuwait. Check out the article [Here]

This is the sequel to Jetski on the road.

Thanks Kasia

I passed this scene earlier today but right after they had managed to put the jetski back on the pickup truck. I didn’t really know what had happened until I spotted this picture on the Al-Mubarkia blog. It fell off in a pretty dangerous location since it happened coming down a bridge so it’s not something you would have spotted ahead of time. [Link]

I was at Shaab Park last night and spotted these signs on all the carnival games. Basically if you win, that’s it, you’re done and you can’t play the game until a week passes by. I’m not sure how they even track your wins but that has to be the stupidest rule ever.

This is very odd. On the front page of Al Rai newspaper there is a notice from Avenues saying that we can no longer mention Avenues, talk about Avenues or post pictures of Avenues without getting written permission first. That includes, newspapers, magazines, blogs etc…

I’m not sure why they would release something like this. I guess from now on I’ll refer to Avenues as Alshaya Mall?

Thanks Salah

Update: The Avenues have responded [Link]

In the first incident of its kind, a traffic policeman issued a citation against an Arab motorist for having bad breath, reports Al-Anba daily.

A police source said it is a very strange incident and problematic too because the penalty is not known. “Will the motorist be fined; if so, how much will he have to pay and if his car is impounded, how long will it be in the police garage?” he asked.
Incidentally, it is also mentioned on the citation that the motorist admitted that his mouth smells. [Source]

If they’re issuing tickets for bad breath then my previous joke about how sunglasses should be banned might actually happen.

Update: I added the picture of the ticket to the post

Update2: The MOI is denying such a ticket was issued [Link]
