Pink Blog

This picture is from Picture is Unrelated, a blog about pictures that have no explanation but are definitely weird. I thought this was too cute to pass up!

I realize the project is probably dead in the water already, but it seems strange that Microsoft was launching a smartphone line called Pink. Let’s be honest here, pink is a gendered color; I know Real Men Wear Pink, but if you take a poll of technology users, it’s going to be the women [...]

This lovely pink SmartCar is owned by Lipstick Bail Bonds, a bail bonds agency owned by – get this – twin female ex-cops. They also do a bit of bounty hunting, as reported by the National Enquirer. They drive pink SUVs and use pink handcuffs. If you like what they do, [...]
